The Wally Foster Community Centre is a large well established Community Centre in South East Hackney situated on Homerton Road and bordering Hackney Marsh. It is less than a mile from the Olympic Park and serves the local community of the Kings mead Estate and surrounding roads and is available for use by all Hackney Residents. It is now the largest Hackney Community Centre
Gladesmore Community School in Tottenham is today one of the most popular schools in the area; almost all students come from disadvantaged backgrounds, 93% are from ethnic minorities and 68% get at least five good GCSEs.
It has been a journey to bring the school up from where it was to where it is, and the amazing equipment they get from Reyooz helps to create a fabulous environment on a shoestring budget
The SBWA is a registered charity (No. 1056856) and was set up in 1992 to support the Somali and Bravanese community, many of whom have escaped war and persecution in Somalia.
In 2013 a suspected arson attack on our premises brought their work to a halt. Appropriate temporary accommodation had been difficult to find and the morale and confidence of the community was low. Support from the whole of the local area has been wonderful and greatly appreciated, and the commitment by the local authority to rebuild the Centre has been a great comfort.
Items from Reyooz have been instrumental in the re-building of the Centre.
"I wouldn’t have been to justify spending the thousands of pounds new storage for the PE store but thanks to Reyooz I don’t have to. The cash saved means more money to spend on buy books and other equipment for the pupils”.
Mark Humphreys has a lot of difficult decisions to make. He needs to make his limited budget goes as far as possible. “That’s been made a lot easier since we started using Reyooz last year”.
Mark has used furniture he received from reyooz.com to transform all of the senior leadership teams offices, replacing everything: desks, chairs and storage. “Before we had the furniture in from Reyooz those offices were not a great environment for people to work in. The offices are now much nicer places and people are happier”.
Justice Buckman has been relying on Reyooz since the early days. Justice supports schools in Africa by sending furniture and equipment from the UK.
The surplus of goods in the UK that ends up as waste can be a vital supply chain for schools and communities in Africa who simply cannot afford the resources that are so readily cast aside in the UK.
