We Make Camden Kit

Have a great idea for your community? The We Make Camden Kit gives money and support to Camden citizens and community groups who want to start projects or initiatives.

A panel of Camden residents from across the borough decides who is awarded funding, with support from Camden Giving and Camden Council. We’ve already awarded over 30 grants, so why not apply!

Join the We Make Camden Citizens Group

We Make Camden Citizens’ Group is a new initiative launched by Camden to get a better understanding of the lives of our residents.

What does it involve? Surveys, phone interviews, focus groups and more. For most of these you’ll be rewarded with payment for your time equivalent to London Living Wage.

If you’d like to take part, just complete this online questionnaire or email participation@camden.gov.uk with your name and address and we’ll post a paper questionnaire to you.

Find things to do, join a group, or set up your own

We’ve partnered with the Co-op to share their Co-operate platform which helps people make great things happen in communities.

Check it out to see volunteering opportunities, local groups and online events in your neighbourhood.
