The Soup Kitchen was founded in January 2013 by Solomon Smith, a lifelong Brixtonian who identified the essential need for such a space for homeless people.

Soup Kitchen is community space for homeless people or people in desperate need. The Soup Kitchen aspires to provide food, drink and companionship in a warm and friendly environment on a weekly basis. Since that time we have served over 65,000 meals either eaten on site or distributed during food drop offs and outreach sessions. This could not have been possible without the donations and support from local community members as well as local businesses.

At the Brixton Soup Kitchen we have had trained professionals come in and deliver one to one consultation sessions with clients to re-house people, assisting people to claim benefits they rightfully deserve as well as back to work training. 'Brixton Soup Kitchen' is not just a service for the homeless, but also members of the community who fall below the poverty line.

Since starting the 'Brixton Soup Kitchen' we have received food donations from Pret A Manger, Greggs Bakery, Media support from ATU Radio and The South London Press who awarded us with the 'Our Hero's Award' in April 2013. The word about the good work at 'Brixton Soup Kitchen' has been spreading and we are receiving approximately 45 visitors per day, 5 days a week, but the resources are running fine.

The Soup Kitchen is now is working towards becoming a recognised support centre for the community as a whole. It is hoped that extra facilities can be added to the already popular centre including job searching support, advice on housing and benefits and a night shelter for those in dire need. However in order to achieve this a lot of support will be needed.
