Since 2017, we have been at the forefront of inspiring change in Chadwell Heath.

 

Our Mission

CHSRA was formed to protect the interests of residents in Chadwell Heath and to deliver projects in the neighbourhood that have emerged from identifying local need. We are a not-for-profit organisation with no political affiliations. Our work aims to enrich and empower community members, who volunteer for the benefit of all.
