OUR CAMPAIGN
Our beloved Cultural Centre which has been providing culturally sensitive services and activities for the African Caribbean Community in Hornsey for over 30 years – NEEDS YOUR HELP!
The iconic building founded by pioneering community leaders from the Windrush Generation, and which has also played host to many high-profile events is in a state of disrepair and needs refurbishing.
We are raising funds for the repairs, so we can re-open the centre with renewed vigour, and new initiatives aimed at revitalising our community.

Message from the ACLC
The African Caribbean Leadership Company (ACLC) stands ready to support the Jamaican High Commission in helping families rebuild their homes, restore their lives, and bring hope back to our nation.
Many individuals and organisations were quick to set up avenues for support. To avoid confusion, and to ensure our efforts are directed through channels with the strictest monitoring and the strongest focus on speed and effectiveness, we have decided not to launch our own campaign.
Warning! At two recent meetings, the High Commission reported the emergence of various fraudulent websites and shared links that have come to their attention. Unfortunately, there are too many to list. We therefore urge you to exercise extreme caution and ensure you can verify addresses and contact numbers before using any alternative avenues.
HOW CAN YOU PROVIDE SUPPORT?
The High Commission has advised that the Support Jamaica website — Support Jamaica: Official Disaster Relief & Recovery Portal — is the recommended source of information and the official route for support.
The Jamaican High Commission has also confirmed that all humanitarian aid and supplies must be consigned to the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (ODPEM). They have produced a form that will be submitted electronically to both the Jamaican Customs Agency and ODPEM upon completion. You can find the form here https://supportjamaica.gov.jm/import
WHERE CAN YOU FIND THE LATEST UPDATES?
You can use the Support Jamaica portal to access the latest updates, report incidents, donate, or volunteer. Importantly, they have published a needs list to help guide your purchases and collections.
Thank you for your concern and support for Jamaica.
