Supporting Newham’s diverse residents to be Active, Creative & Connected.
We are delighted to have been funded by The Mayor of London and Transport For London ‘Walking Cycling Grant’ to deliver a community walks programme.

Residents in this age group experience significant barriers to walking due to health conditions and high levels of poverty and deprivation, which also impact health outcomes.”
