Community Street Party!!!
September 28, 2019 @ 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Huge thank you to everyone who attended the party & brought food – it was a fantastically diverse range that reflected the numerous cultures represented on Kings Crescent!! Delicious! We had Hackney Play Bus and Wheely Tots there to entertain the kids, along with crafts and toys. Plus live music playing, it was a really lovely event! Here are some photos:
Previous Information:
The residents group (newly formed TRA) is organising a ‘big lunch’ style community street party event. Come along to get to know your neighbours!
Hackney are giving us the £500 ‘big lunch’ fund and we have some other community money to spend on this.
Featuring:
- Hackney Play Bus will be attending which has lots of play equipment and fun for kids https://hackneyplaybus.org/services/playbus-sessions/
- Wheely Tots – bike fun for little kids and advice on family cycling http://wheelytots.com/
- Live music
- Please bring a dish to share in a community lunch
- Bring/take exchange (Swap Shop) so bring any clothes, toys, household items that you don’t want anymore and take anything that you want (all free)
The party will be based on the Play Street and in Unit C (vacant unit near Sainsbury’s)
Requests:
We will need volunteers to help set up & clear away, keep an eye on food table, bring/take table, marshal street safety etc
We would like to close the section of road that cuts across the play street (Casbeard St) and down between the hoarded areas towards Datchworth Court (this will not affect any parking spaces). Unfortunately we are too late to apply to do this officially so we will just be putting up bunting and politely asking people not to drive through from about 11am-4pm for the duration of the party including set up/clear away. Notices will be sent out about this to all residents. We will also need volunteers to marshal this during the party to ensure kids are safe if they are playing on the road, walking down to the basketball court etc
