A Town Hall is a meeting, not a building. It’s a chance for us to talk about what matters in Hackney Wick. It’s not run by any party or business, but by and for local people.
Have thoughts about the night time economy? Want to reduce pollution in the area? Been thinking about pedestrianising the streets of Hackney Wick? Well this is the space for you.
After months of meeting on Zoom, we’re finally back IRL (in real life). Join us to reconnect with Hackney Wick people, old and new, have a natter about what matters to you and have a tasty meal with your neighbours, on us.
We’ll be joined by Phillip Glanville, Hackney’s Mayor, to talk about and listen to all things Hackney Wick.
The evening will end with a free communal meal served up by Seif Abdel Salam from Taheena.
Town Hall: 5-6.45pm
Meal: 6.45-7.30pm
