Supporting The Downham Community Project
December 3rd, 2024
The Brewers
Foundation were delighted to donate £250 worth of decorating supplies to the
Downham Men’s Group to create a Health & Wellbeing space within the
Goldsmiths Community Centre.
Dulux
Weathershield and Albany Soft Sheen were donated towards the Downham Men’s
Group which has been coordinated by Trevor Pybus of Downham Nutrition
Partnership.
More about the organisations:
Downham
Nutrition Partnership (DNP) promotes any charitable purposes for the benefit of
the community in Lewisham including the advancement of education, the
protection of health and the relief of poverty, distress and sickness. In 2024,
Downham Men’s Group became members of DNP.
Downham Men’s
Group deliver social sessions where men are encouraged to support themselves
and the local community. They undertake many projects that benefit the
community, working as a team and most importantly drinking lots of tea!
Ideas are
initiated by the members of Downham Men’s Group, with each session starting
with tea and a chat about their plans going forward. It was decided that the
Goldsmiths Community Centre could be brightened up with Health and Wellbeing
space in the inner courtyard, with a mural celebrating 100 years of Downham - at
the moment they are seeking a local artist who could help with the design of the
mural.
