Where We Are

Our Zone spans the community in West London around the Harrow Road: roughly three square miles covering parts of Hammersmith, Kensington, Brent and Westminster.

How We Are Funded

WLZ benefits from a diverse and sustainable funding model, with each child supported by their local council, their school, and philanthropy, topped up the Big Lottery Fund/central government.

Donate

So far our Link Workers have supported over 900 children across our Zone and by 2022 we want to reach at least 3,000. But we need your help. Your donation, however big or small, will make a difference.
