SWAN FOOD BANK SOUTH LONDON

Every week, SWAN extends a vital lifeline to communities in South London through our compassionate initiatives, comprising three soup kitchens and a food bank. These projects offer warmth and sustenance to those in need, with a total of 9,480 beneficiaries supported across Thornton Heath, Croydon, and Clapham. Our Food bank is based in Streatham, South London.

Since 2010, SWAN Foodbank at South London Islamic Centre, 8 Mitcham Lane, Streatham, SW16 6NN has been providing essential food support to over 1,000 people in South London every month.

Operating every Tuesday morning from 10:30 to 12:00, our foodbank serves low-income families, the elderly and infirm, refugees, single-parent families, the homeless, and others in need within our community.
