About Toynbee Hall
Toynbee Hall produces practical innovative programmes to meet the needs of local people, improve conditions and enable communities to fulfil their potential.
Tower Hamlets continues to be one of the most deprived boroughs in the country and Toynbee Hall works with over 6,000 members of the community each year to support them to meet the challenges that they face and to encourage them to take control of their lives.
Each year, over 500 residential and non-residential volunteers bring their expertise to the services that Toynbee Hall offers. We place volunteers at the heart of our work, always ensuring that we offer excellent opportunities, so that volunteers can meet their personal goals and develop their own skills and networks.
