Neighbours in Poplar came into being in October 1969, when some concerned local people gathered many senior citizens and held a Christmas party in Pope John House. This proved very successful and highlighted a need that needed to be met. Neighbours in Poplar has now evolved into a charity organisation that promotes and develops community cohesion. Neighbours in Poplar now provides a broad range of services and activities for the local community in Tower Hamlets particularly local elderly people who experience living alone and in isolation.
I am incredibly proud to share that Neighbours in Poplar has been awarded the prestigious Investors in People Gold accreditation!
This achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and passion of our entire team. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every member of staff for their invaluable contributions, which have made this recognition possible.
Thank you all for your commitment to our mission and for exemplifying the values that make Neighbours in Poplar such a special place. Let’s continue to build on this fantastic success together.
