BIG NEWS FOR KINGSTON!


We are absolutely delighted to announce that Save The World Club has been awarded

£20,000 from the Mayor of London’s Green Roots Fund to deliver our new project:


Kingston Green Roots at Save The World Club.


Over the the course of 18 months, we will support many people from the local community to:

  • Grow healthy food

  • Cook affordable, nutritious meals

  • Learn gardening and sustainability skills

  • Build friendships and reduce loneliness

  • Improve well-being and mental health


The project will run across two local sites in our Community Garden at 18 Southsea Road

and the Kingston Orchard Project in Tolworth, bringing together residents of all ages and

backgrounds through food-growing, gardening and shared community meals.


The fruit and vegetables grown through the project will be used in our Community Kitchen,

where participants will learn how to cook healthy meals on a budget together. The

programme will also support the development of our new Save The World Community

Café --- Now called the Welcome Table Cafe — a warm, welcoming social hub offering low-cost meals, volunteering opportunities, training pathways and community connection.

Our affordable cafe, Now on Tuesdays!

Deputy Mayor for Environment and Energy, Mete Coban, said:

“Kingston Green Roots is a brilliant example of how the Green Roots Fund is supporting

community connections through the power of nature, growing and sustainability. We’re

proud to support projects like this to help empower local communities and build a greener,

fairer city.”

Our cooking classes, bookable now!


This funding forms part of the Mayor of London’s investment into greener, healthier and

more climate-resilient communities across London.


As the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan said:

“Everyone should have access to nature, which is why we’re empowering London’s

communities to transform their neighbourhoods through these new blue and green spaces.”


Together we are proving that:

✨ Food can bring people together

✨ Community can tackle loneliness

✨ Growing food can grow hope

✨ Small local action can change the world


Join us each Thursday from 2pm to 4pm in our 1000 sq ft Chalice Community Garden at 18

Southsea Road, Kingston, KT1 2EH and Sundays at the Kingston Orchard Project behind the Knollmead Allotments next to Knollmead Primary School in Tolworth for the next 3 weeks (9th July - 26th July) for our instructional food growing sessions.

These projects are all funded in full or in part by the Mayor of London.


Lastly, we want to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who has, and continues to support us — our volunteers, staff, donors, partners and local residents.


This project belongs to the whole community.

Gathering facts becomes much easier when exploring verified town archives alongside standard municipal documents.

The account-access page can tell you quite a bit about how thoughtfully a platform has arranged its basic features. While looking at Raxi Win Login, I focused on the layout and how easily the different login options could be identified. The page was fairly straightforward and did not require much time to understand. Priya prefers simple account pages because unnecessary buttons can make mobile screens confusing. I had much the same reaction here, especially when checking the login section from a smaller smartphone display.

Projects that invite collective editing tend to evolve in interesting ways. A women-focused wiki can serve as a living record of topics and perspectives that mainstream references sometimes overlook.

One of the more interesting aspects of this landing page is the emphasis on intentional scaling. Rather than aiming for mass adoption, the admin describes a Mastodon instance that started as a personal note-taking space and is now opening up to a small, curated group. The site’s overview of that selective process is a good example of how to communicate boundaries and expectations in community building. It’s a useful reference for anyone planning a similarly modest federated project.
