What the charity does
RBKares connects kindness and generosity in the Kingston community with vulnerable people and key-workers. We focus on providing support to NHS staff, care homes and other vulnerable groups eg: refugees and the homeless. We use the community's sewing and crafting skills to make items to support people in our community, run sewing workshops and wellbeing days empowering people to help themselves.
