How we help
Empowering individuals and households to reach
their full potential.
Thanet Iceberg currently oversees three main projects.
Each of these projects addresses a particular area of poverty.
Below is a brief outline on how each service address the immediate needs of our clients, from the provision of food, drink and companionship through to household goods and furniture. Once the initial needs are met we are then able to take time to help our clients address the long term causes of their situation
Our Services
The Lounge
The Lounge is a place where you can come, sit and feel like you are visiting a friend’s house. A place where you know that you will be treated the same as any guest who comes to the house, with a nice drink and something to eat if you need it. A place where you can just stop.
The Lounge is filled with sofas and armchairs, with a few coffee tables scattered about. The Kettle is always on, and the biscuit tin is always full, when you come to see us.
Come in to find out how to access the range of support and services that Thanet Iceberg Project can offer, or just come to chat, connect and feel at home.
The Loft
Through The Loft we are able to help households and individuals who are living in accommodation without the everyday basics that many of us take for granted.
We supply, free of charge, second hand furniture such as beds, chairs, tables, cutlery and crockery. We also have white goods that we are able to give on to new homes.
We collect and deliver anywhere in Thanet, free of charge. If you have something to give on to others or if you are in need of some household items please get in touch.
Crossroads
Haven’t we all found ourselves in a place where we simply need some advice and support to help us move forward?
All across Thanet there are some amazing organisations working to help people deal with many of the causes of poverty. Indeed, it can almost seem too many. Where do you turn when you need help?
We liaise with many of these organisations to help people with form filling, appointment making, chaperoning, phone calls, etc.
