Camden is one of London’s most unequal boroughs. The gap in life expectancy between the most and least deprived areas is 11.6 years for men and 5.5 years for women. In 2026, around 2 in 5 children in Camden live in poverty after housing costs are taken into account. Many people also face barriers to housing, work and healthcare.

Camden Giving’s mission is to end local poverty and inequality in Camden, and thanks to our supporters, we’re investing in community-led solutions that challenge the root causes and build long-term change.
