On Friday 10th October 2025, United St Saviour’s Charity had the immense honour of welcoming His Royal Highness The Duke of Gloucester to to Appleby Blue, a landmark moment in our long history of supporting older people in Southwark.

Join us at Appleby Blue for our first session of United Thinking: Appleby Blue Autumn Sessions. The first session, delivered in collaboration with Community Southwark, is 'How to Influence - Relationships and Partnership Working'.

We are excited to announce that Funding Differently is now open for applications! 

Dr Ben Johnson is appointed Chair of Trustees at United St Saviour’s Charity, bringing over 20 years of public health and community leadership, and deep local knowledge as a long-term Southwark resident.

At United St Saviour’s Charity, June was an exciting month, filled with fun, festivity, inclusivity, and connection, as we celebrated our first Pride Month since launching the Rainbow Club and signing the LGBTQ+ Housing Pledge earlier this year.

This year’s theme is Community as a Superpower.

Barbara brings to United St Saviour's a wealth of experience as her career has focused on tackling social justice issues and making the world a better place.

An update on our large grants programme round 2, 2025-2026.

United St Saviours is excited to announce the opening of its Small Grants programme:

We welcome applications from those who are working in Southwark and focused on the following themes:

– Strong, resilient communities: connecting, enabling, and strengthening communities
– Positive ageing: reducing isolation and increasing wellbeing amongst older residents
– Levelling the playing field: targeted and life-changing support for population groups disproportionately experiencing social and economic disadvantage

We're thrilled to announce the successful launch of our Rainbow Club!
To kick things off during LGBTQ+ History Month, we hosted a vital and insightful round-table discussion titled
"Breaking Down Barriers: Inclusive Housing for Older LGBTQ+ People" and it was a resounding success. 🌈

At United St Saviour's Charity, we extend our deepest gratitude to Sarah Thurman for her extraordinary contributions over the past nine years. Sarah's tenure has been truly transformative, leaving an indelible mark on our organisation and the Southwark community.
