Editor's Notes
- SiobhánThis is where the 301 people referred so far this year live. We are available to support people from all London boroughs, the only borough we have had no referrals from so far in this financial year is The City of London.The highest number of referrals have come from Hackney 9% (28)Southwark 9% (27)Haringey 8% (23)Newham 7% (22)
- SiobhánComparing the referrals to people with health issues we would have difficulty delivering our prepared meals to the people living in the boroughs with red wheels. That’s possibly 89 people (including dependents) who are unable to receive one of our key services.

- SiobhánWe’ve helped as many people with our Eating Positively cookery and nutrition classes as we have with our delivered meals, 193 people. We provide these for our own service users every Monday and for other HIV support groups as requested. We’ve a had a great time working with Body and Soul, Positive East (including over 50’s group), CWAC (young people). At their sites and in our kitchen.
- Siobhán65 people have come to our weekly Eating Together sessions where they have had the opportunity to get involved with growing vegetables at the local community garden and have heard from other HIV support groups such as …
