It started as a soup kitchen in Finchley Methodist Church and Finchley Reform Synagogue. I remember helping them secure the premises in the mid 1990s and am proud to be supporting them as my chosen charity. I intend that the money raised during the year will be used to improve and extend this building, enabling HAB to provide its valuable services for future generations.
