Congratulations to Linden Grove staff members Vincent Mahe and Simon Woods for achieving their Level 5 Diplomas in Management and Leadership for Health and Social Care.
Kairos arrived at 22 Linden Grove, Nunhead, 20 years ago this month. The building was a wreck but staff and volunteers (like our friend pictured here), managed to make it habitable by 26 March, when Fr John Kitchen, Tony Walsh and six residents moved here from Stonhouse Street in Clapham. In the 20 years since […]
The three new counselling and meeting rooms at Linden Grove have been completed and are now in use. This is the first project that has been built by Kairos staff from start to finish.

Annexe residents will attend the Garden Day Programme, a 12-week post-detox rehabilitation course, and they will be supported from Linden Grove. Another Kairos Community Trust development.
Linden Grove, Training, Volunteers

In Miriam Kilpatrick’s case, it’s a BA in fine art and an ambition to train as an art therapist. She’s been volunteering at […]
CRASH, In partnership, Linden Grove
We all know Linden Grove now as a 24-bed, CQC-regulated community detox hostel – with a beautiful airy dining-room, library, gym, counselling rooms and offices. But it was not always so. In fact, it was a big old house and a separate, disused church hall. In 2006-7, with the help of CRASH, the building […]
