Aim

To raise £10K to help cover our community co-op's energy costs this winter and build our ability to generate renewable energy.


Escalating energy costs over the past couple of years have left us with a forecast budget shortfall in 2024 that could threaten our survival as a community business. 

This appeal seeks to secure up to £10,000 in donations before 31st January 2024 to help our social business contain and cover its energy costs (which have quadrupled since 2019), and to build our capacity to realise our vision of generating our own renewable energy at our Clapham site in place of fossil fuels.

Growing with Grace is committed to growing  and promoting food which is produced in a sustainable and ecologically sound way, to develop people’s food growing skills and to increase community access to local wholesome food in line with fair trade, vegan, organic and Quaker principles.  We are recipients of national awards from the Soil Association, and recently were runners-up for Producer of the Year in the BBC Food Farming awards.

Please consider contributing what you can to our appeal to enable Growing with Grace to continue developing people's food growing skills and increasing community access to wholesome food in 2024 and beyond.
