New area charity: MammaKind, Norman Road

Image
MammaKind is a baby bank providing clothes, toys, baby equipment, essential hygiene items and baby food to families in poverty in the south-east London boroughs of Bromley, Bexley, Greenwich and Lewisham. The majority of the families they support are headed by a single mother and many face additional disadvantages, such as disability or having experienced violence, and have no recourse to public funds. The removal of the benefit uplift, refugee crisis and cost-of-living crisis has created even more demand for our help. For more information, including how to support them, can be found by clicking here .

It's almost the end of March already and that means it's quiz time! On Wednesday, 26 March, 19.00 in the Crow's Nest bar, Greenwich Picturehouse's own @obiwan_kenbrobi  will be testing your knowledge of all things film. This month's theme is general knowledge, with each round being themed in some way. No big clues, but they suggest brushing up on your Oscar winner and films that are decidedly green. Some Star Wars, Marvel, and fantasy would probably help too! There are prizes to be won, including free cinema tickets, so come on down and put your knowledge to the test. £1 donation to Refuge per person as entry fee. Teams up to 6 people recommended.
