Itās #VolunteersWeek! The WWR team is made up entirely of volunteers and weāre always on the lookout for extra support. No matter your background, experience, or how much time you can commit, we'd love to hear from you! Please email us: [email protected]




Join us at Backstory | London bookshop on 29th July for an evening with writer & journalist, Horatio Clare, to discuss his latest book, We Came By Sea. All ticket sales from the event will be donated to WWR, for which weāre enormously grateful. Reserve your spot here: backstory.london/products/29th-ā¦


A huge thank you to everyone who came to the launch night of our Giant Dolls' House Project 'Voices of Wandsworth' installation at BatterseaArtsCentre last night - and, of course, to the 200 plus residents who created this amazing body of art exploring what home, community, and sanctuary mean.
