The Foundation is able to provide grants to individuals in need of assistance
- usually for the provision of furniture - and to support the work of
other organisations working with people in need.

We
can be contacted on our dedicated telephone line that assures a speedy
response to enquiries or you can write to us by letter or e-mail. Each
claimant is visited in the home for an assessment of their needs.

| A
new initiative has been developed to supply re-cycled furniture from our
own stock. These items are delivered to the successful applicant by the
Kensington Foundation. |
