Hope you have better luck that I have. Skip licencing - Highways Department, Colin Dougan 8356 4569 / Angela Greer 8356 4481.

Stoke_Newington_Common Users' Group Discovering Hackney - Regular guided walks around Hackney London Cycling Campaign in Hackney Abney Park Trust Springfield Park Users Group Open Dalston Campaign has been successful in gaining judicial review to prevent LBH's plan to demolish the 19th-century theatre in Dalston Lane. Open Dalston is also dealing with the Broadway Market sell-off. That organisation would be a good connection to make for those concerned with both Olympic issues and other planning illegalities especially in Cazenove Ward. Scrap Stoke Newington Gyratory - Restore the Common - Transport for London is considering getting rid of the one-way gyratory that cuts people off from the common and blights High Street shopping. (CAAG also maintains information on this campaign HERE) Hackney Environment Forum Well Street Common Users Group London Fields User Group Friends of Claption Cinematograph Theatre aims to preserve and restore the historic cinema at 229 Lower Clapton Road, E5 (ex-Dougie's Nightclub) and bring it back into use for the benefit of the people of Hackney LARA (Leswin Area Residents Association)

Neighbourhood Watch

Walking TfL have created a ring of walks across London.  The Capital Ring passes straight through our ward linking Abney Park Cemetry to Springfield Park: , up Kyverdale Road, Filey Avenue and Oldhill Street. See the TfL descriptions of these walks here: Capital Ring Section 12: Highgate to Stoke Newington Capital Ring Section 13: Stoke Newington to Hackney Wick On Wednesday 21st September 2005 (the Day before Car-Free Day/In Town Without My Car) there's a "Do" to mark the completion of the Capital Ring, at Highgate, with 6 walks feeding in to the ceremony at 4pm. One of them starts from Hackney Wick station at 10.45am, presumably trailing the Ring Walks 13 and 12.
