FACE is a group of neighbours in the Furzedown area of Tooting, South London, who decided to get together and raise money for local causes affecting those close to us.
Our fundraising success has been supported by local schools, many local businesses, and individuals who have made gifts and come to our events. So far we've raised over £80,000 for our local charities including South London MNDA, St George's Hospital (currently supporting renovations to their TYA room), The Furzedown Project and local gardening initiatives and we are looking forward to continuing this success in the future!
