Kensington and Chelsea: Acorn Hall Weekend Service

'If everything seems under total control, you're just not going fast enough!'

h

Open every Saturday and Sunday from 1.00pm until 4.00pm

Acorn Hall: 1 East Row, North Kensington, London W10 5AR


This is our original weekend project and has been running since 2005. It is a busy service with a large and experienced volunteer team, many of whom have been helping us out for years. The service is used by at least forty individuals per day, so there is plenty of company if you feel like a chat or are looking for a little support. Like all of our services, it is friendly and informal and there is plenty to do.
