Jaguar support The Manna Society

A safe haven for homeless people in the City

Towards the end of last year, our team discovered The Manna Society, a local charity near London Bridge dedicated to providing food and hot meals to those facing food insecurity. The Manna Society has been operating for 42 years, assisting 100-120 homeless individuals daily, and is open 7 days a week for 51 weeks a year.

We recently visited the Manna Society to find out more about their work. Paddy Boyle, Administrator has been a part of the organisation since 1986. He told us that most of the dedicated staff have also worked there for over 20 years. Alongside hot meals, the centre also provides essential services including clothing, showers, housing and welfare advice, medical clinics and free internet access.

Bandi Mbubi, Director at the Manna Society said:

“We are creating a safe haven for people, we don’t ask questions. It is a place of respect, restoring dignity and treating people well.”

The Manna Society welcomes donations, particularly men’s clothing, food, and toiletries. If you’re interested in contributing, check out their most recent list of needed items.

It was a pleasure to visit Paddy and the team, and we look forward to continuing to support the fantastic work that they do.
