Response to coronavirus (Covid-19)
Following government guidelines, the South Kilburn Trust has taken the decision to close The Granville until at least 31st May 2020. The building will be closed for all community activities, private hires and managed workspace hire.
We are doing this to help fight the spread of coronavirus and keep people safe.
We are involved in local grassroots community support to ensure that the more vulnerable members of our communities are properly supported through these difficult and challenging times.
We encourage anyone who has time to get involved in the local Mutual Aid Kilburn group, and to notify the group if you know of anyone who needs support. Contact: kilburnaid@gmail.com or 020 3488 4916.
Granville Community Kitchen is also offering support to families and individuals – for details contact granvillecommunitykitchen@gmail.com.
We hope that you stay safe and well, and look forward to welcoming you to The Granville in the future.
For more information on how South Kilburn Trust is getting involved during this difficult period contact Chief Executive: Carl Blackburn email: carl@southkilburntrust.org
The Granville Closed until further notice
