Improving lives across Richmond

OneRichmond is a place-based giving charity for the Borough of Richmond – from Barnes to Hampton, Richmond, Twickenham, Kew, and Whitton. We use our deep local knowledge and networks to tackle the borough’s social, economic, and community-specific challenges, by raising funds and directing resources to the most effective local organisations and projects.

Richmond may appear affluent, but beneath the surface lies real and growing need – particularly around social isolation, housing insecurity, mental health, and youth vulnerability. 

At the same time, very little outside funding reaches the borough. Local funders do what they can, but they cannot meet the need alone. 

There is a generous and capable population in Richmond. OneRichmond was created to connect that goodwill to real local impact – mobilising residents, businesses, and philanthropists to support the causes that matter most.

Our Focus: Tackling Social Isolation 

Social isolation is one of the most pressing challenges in Richmond, and it affects all age groups. Place-based giving charities like OneRichmond are perfectly positioned to address it at a local level through: 

    • Elderly Support
    • Mental Health Services
    • Disability Advocacy
    • Homelessness & Housing
    • Youth & Children’s Programmes

Supporting these causes locally has a powerful ripple effect. It: 

    • Encourages local people to take action
    • Invokes a sense of shared humanity and responsibility
    • Creates visible, lasting change in our own neighbourhoods
    • Helps local businesses and high-net-worth individuals focus their social footprint where they can see the impact
