Living Under One Sun is a community organisation and charity based in the heart of Tottenham.
"All equal under one sun"
We actively create welcoming places to share stories, ideas and skills for people to become "can do" communities, embracing and leading positive change to include and benefit all cultures, abilities, ages and Nature - in neighbourhoods and globally.
Why We Are Here
We are here to...
Reduce social isolation · Reduce poverty, poor health and anti-social behaviour · Train, skill up and provide pathways to employment for local people · Promote Nature and environmental sustainability · Have a positive impact on regeneration and placemaking · Promote equality and harmony
Past Projects
LUOS’s successful ‘can do’ and ‘By the community - For the community’ approach has secured funding and commissions to deliver a wide range of innovative community empowerment projects and services - responding to key community needs and aspirations – including:Well Park Lane, Home from Hospital, Neighbourhood Connect, Collective Switching, Personal Travel Planning and Blooming Beds and Bees.
In our projects we purposefully recruit, train and support unemployed or underemployed local residents who are paid above the London Living Wage. We also create pathways to employment by training and supporting volunteers.
