Be Enriched supports people struggling with social isolation and hunger. We accomplish this by leading several projects across South London. Community canteens that provide warm meals to those who need it, mobile grocery stores the Food Bus and Food Float and volunteer opportunities which bring people together to cook in the kitchen.
