The Slumlord Awards

Is your landlord running a roach hotel? 
Or maybe they think mold is just “modern art”? 
It’s time to call them out! 
Join London ACORN for the Slumlord of the Year Awards — where we celebrate the worst landlords in the city (and trust us, some of them deserve a trophy).

PUSH the Bus

The greatest thing you can give a kid isn’t a thing; it’s a place. It’s a place where kids can explore and imagine, play and have an adventure. It’s a place where friendships come standard, and they are built on the values of kindness and acceptance. It’s a place to create memories that last a lifetime. You can give a child the gift of camp.
