Festive Giving 2025

Support local people and lasting connection this festive season by donating to our Community Christmas Day.

On 25 December 2025, BAC will be hosting a free Christmas Day event for our community from across Wandsworth and South London. We will provide free hot meals, entertainment and transport to welcome over a hundred local residents to our Grand Hall and celebrate everyone coming together for a very merry afternoon.

Since 2021, our Community Christmas Day events have gone from strength to strength, with last year being our biggest yet. With the help of our community, we welcomed 150 people, including over 40 children, and delivered 298 Christmas Dinners to our guests and others around Wandsworth through Waste Not Want Not Battersea.

This year, help us bring even more local people together for Christmas Day in our building by donating below.

Past Events

Christmas 2024

The Grand Hall at BAC, a Victorian hall with a vaulted wooden ceiling with geometric patterns, and a large organ at one end. Shining chandeliers hang from the ceiling and there are large trestle tables laid out with people sat around wearing paper hats from Christmas crackers and Santa hats. On the tables are lots of cups and place settings. Some people are also stood at the back of the hall in a queue, waiting to get their Christmas Dinner.
