St Mary Abbots Rehabilitation and Training (SMART) are hosting The Bi-Borough Wide Meeting - a community event for residents of Kensington and Chelsea and Westminster, focused on wellbeing, connection, and local services.

Every October, World Mental Health Day marks a reminder of the importance of mental health and the need for accessible support. This year's theme - Access to services in emergencies - shines a light on the importance of ensuring mental health support is available to everyone, especially during times of crisis. 

From 13–17 October 2025, communities across the UK will be celebrating Community Transport Week (CTWeek25) – a national showcase of the essential role community transport plays in helping people stay connected, independent, and supported.

The K&C Foundation have published their impact report for 2025. The report looks at the Foundation's different projects over the last year, and how they have directed support towards their three priority areas of mental health, education, and skills and employment.
