Archbishop Evangelou MBE has for over 30 years dedicated his life to the selfless service of others. As well as his ecclesiastical responsibilities and service, he is the President of Community Heart (London), a registered charity set up to help and support the local community, especially the young and vulnerable. As President he oversees the running of several ground breaking projects including, Edmonton Eagles Amateur Boxing Club, where he is the Head Coach and Honorary Secretary, Running with the Vision – Youth Football, Youth Zone Youth Club and Sign Post, a project that feeds and helps support the homeless and vulnerable. Under his continued direction and leading, the Edmonton Eagles ABC in 2015 received the prestigious Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service. Archbishop Evangelou MBE has run 4 London Marathons raising in excess of £30,000 for various charities.

In 2004 he travelled to an isolated community in the Eastern Region of Ghana. Negotiations with the Chief of the area resulted in the granting of a piece of land for the building of a medical clinic. The clinic was desperately needed by this community who had no other access to medical care. Now around 500 people a month receive medical treatment from the clinic.
