We’re excited to share our new business plan, which will guide us through the next five years. This plan reflects our commitment to supporting our community’s wellbeing, and sets out the key priorities that will help us grow and make an even greater impact.
A safe and happy place for the people of North Kensington
Our community centre offers a wide range of activities, projects and services that promote health, wellbeing and inclusion for all ages.
Welcome our new CEO, Carrie Hirst.
Carrie joins us after more than ten years of involvement in the borough, bringing a deep understanding of the community from her work here at various points over the last decade.
She combines cross-sector leadership with hands on experience across the voluntary sector, NHS and public health, championing initiatives that deliver measurable benefits for local communities. She was most recently the Director of Health Transformation at Hackney CVS.
Carrie has worked alongside the Trust over the years supporting our food bank, Community Champions programme & facilitating the Trust’s away day in 2023.
Carrie said: “Kensington & Chelsea holds a special place in my heart & I’m delighted to be back & joining Dalgarno Trust as its CEO.
A huge thank you to Esma for everything she has done over the last few years to support the Trust and the wider North Kensington community. I’m excited to work with our team, partners and Board to build on these strong foundations and help shape the next chapter together.
I’ll look forward to meeting everyone over the coming weeks & welcoming you into the Centre – once I’ve found the kettle!”
