A brief history of Hackney Environment Forum (HEF)
HEF was set up in 1989 as an umbrella group for local environmental groups:
- to provide a point of contact;
- to provide the opportunity to discuss issues of general concern;
- and to be aware of what other groups were doing.
Over the years HEF has been involved in a wide range of activities:
- production of newsletters;
- setting up meetings;
- lobbying London Borough of Hackney about issues;
- responding to planning issues etc;
- and more recently, in the setting up of Hackney Green Drinks and the HEF website.
At times LBH Councillors and staff with an interest in environmental issues have attended meetings.
[We hope to enlarge this history in the near future.]
