GMB London branches raise £4,100 for ‘Kids on the Green’ charity to support Grenfell community

We would like to personally thank each and every branch who has so far contributed towards this initiative and appeal, says GMB London

GMB London Region and its branches have so far raised £4,100 for the ‘Kids on the Green’ charity, to support children and families in the Grenfell community.

‘Kids on the Green’ is a project designed to provide a calm space for families, teens and children affected by the tragic Grenfell Tower fire. They provide arts and crafts, sports, entertainment and physiological help for kids.

Shaun Graham, GMB Regional Officer said:

“GMB London Region and its fantastic branches have so far managed to raise £4,100 for "Kids on the Green" who were set up in the wake of the tragic events at Grenfell to help and support the local community and it's families.

“Approximately £3,000 was paid to them before Christmas and helped them through the difficult winter months. We have just paid an additional £1,100 which was kindly donated by a number of branches and on behalf of the Regional Committee.

“I would like to personally thank each and every branch who has so far contributed towards this initiative and appeal.”
