OUR MUTAL FRIENDS

Our mutual friends Mutual aid groups have been helping those in need since coronavirus arrived in March. Local volunteers played a crucial role at the time - and are still actively helping now

A mutual aid group is a group of local people who all come together informally to help people in their communities. There are twenty of these in Brent and they are all run entirely by volunteers. These groups have been working together to provide practical support - such as delivering food, medicine and other supplies to people who were shielding, as well as providing emotional support to people who have been struggling during the pandemic.

During the lockdown Mutual Aid groups went above and beyond to help protect NHS staff. Elena, Malcolm and Albert, volunteers at Sudbury Local Aid, sourced 2,000 items of PPE for the Law Medical Practice in Wembley, whilst Simon made 40 3D-printed visors. Willesden Green Mutual Aid ward volunteer, James Moxon Browne, celebrated his 100th delivery, proclaiming: “It feels good - it’s something I’ll look back on with pride”.
