Quaker n. also known as Friend, a member of the Religious Society of Friends |  | |

| Social adj. relating to
the organisation of society |  | |
| Our vision is a just world where people put people first. Community is at the heart of what we do and we believe that what connects people is greater than what divides them. East London has famously provided a home for generations of immigrants and we are proud to work within such an exciting and unique community. |
| Action n. the process of doing
something to achieve an aim |  | |
| We run six practical, sustainable and collaborative projects responding to the needs of our local community of east London. The people with whom we work are agents of change, not objects of charity. Our role is to provide people with the right tools, in the right way, at the right time, to take control of the issues affecting their lives. |
