The group was started by women whose community was affected by the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire. During the tragedy, more than 70 people died.

Meghan ended up working with the organization privately for several months. She then put the spotlight on them when she helped release a cookbook that featured their recipes.

Proceeds from the recipe book were meant to benefit the project. The Duchess also wrote the foreword for a cookbook and was present on the launch date.
