About us
Who we are
Our mission is to promote positive social change by creating opportunities for people to come together and play a more active part in their East London community.
There's a lot happening at St. Margaret's House:
A DIVERSE CULTURAL PROGRAMME >> We organise and host a wide variety of events, including exhibitions film screenings, gigs, open mics, spoken word nights, theatre and comedy performances as well as one-off festivals.
ARTS >> We see the arts as a route to community building, wellbeing and social change. Our workshop, the Create Place, is a rare animal in London: an inclusive space for the community to be together and share skills. We curated a great mixture of free weekly classes and one-off workshops and classes for everyone. We continue to develop, support and coordinate projects that respond to contemporary issues faced by the UK creative industries .
WELLBEING >> Our wellbeing programme is designed to bring people together to improve their physical and mental health. Yoganest , our cosy studio provides our range of low-cost yoga, pilates, and dance classes .
AWARD- WINNING VEGAN FOOD & DRINKS >> We're committed to making delicious food that proves that a vegan diet doesn't mean missing out on your favourite dishes. Our Gallery Café has many locally-sourced options as well as a choice of drinks and baked goodies .
SUSTAINABLE SHOPPING >> Shop till you drop at Ayoka, our very own charity shop, stacked to the brim with beautiful vintage and designer treasures.
CHARITABLE ECOSYSTEM >> Providing support to like-minded charities is as important to us as our community projects. By offering considerably below the market rates for office rental as well as access to all our existing facilities, we pride ourselves in being a charitable ecosystem at the root of positive social change in East London and beyond. We are now home to more than 30 different community organisations and charities .
