Bismillah
Why can't the UWT have a section dedicated to this. It is all very well trying to raise money for deserving cause outside UK but one should not forget the muslims who are zakat deserving here in UK.
The likes of UWT have branches everywhere in UK and it is simple matter of reallocating little bit of their resources. If need be work with other organisation.
Allahualam

good suggestion. UWT do though actively support such initiatives. inshallah we hope to have a local qurbani appeal for eid adha. collected meat from locals in hackney doing udhiya will be collected and with it food such as biryani and other dishes will be made to give out to local (needy) muslims and homeless shelters - the project (if it gets off the ground) already has the backing of UWT. Im sure they'd be happy to support any similar local projects though in most cases they need locals to drive it forward and a clear well thought through plan put in place.
