At the heart of the dockland communities

"To improve the quality of life of local people through Educational, Social, Sporting, and Recreational Programmes"

The Scouts are off to Serbia!

Dockland Settlement’s Scouts went off to Serbia for 10 days last week.
Scout Leader Vicky was really excited about taking the youngsters to her country of origin.
Funds for the trip were raised by the youngsters and leaders by packing shopping bags at the local supermarket and various other fundraising initiatives.
We are all looking forward to seeing the photo’s on their return and hearing their great stories.
Vicky also took with her the Dockland Settlement T-Shirt for our challenge project, her photo in the shirt will be displayed on our website along with other likely winners.

Celebrity faces with the Dockland Settlements

Welcome

We are an East-End charity that has supported the local community for over 100 years.

We have three local community centres; in Stratford, Rotherhithe and on the Isle of Dogs.

The Dockland Settlements provide a variety of health and social activities and a venue for local led projects.

With your support we will be able to improve each of our centres and provide more services to tackle the deprivation in our local community and to reach out to vulnerable groups that are otherwise ignored.

We are truly a community anchor for the diverse areas around our centres, addressing a variety of needs. We will continue to improve the quality of people's lives.

Rotherhithe

Within the shadow of Canary Wharf the Isle of Dogs Centre captures the history of the Settlements. It has evolved over one hundred years through the sounds of Dock Workers to the quiet underground rumble of the DLR, continually meeting the needs of the local community.

The Carpenters & Dockland Centre is situated on the Carpenters Estate, a stone's throw from the Olympic Stadium. The charity is in the process of negotiating new premises in line with the regeneration of Stratford and the local area.

The Settlement is currently waiting to be demolished and re-built in a partnership with London Borough of Southwark and Family Mosiac Housing Association. The new centre will have state of the art provision for the local neighbourhood.
