Ever wanted to do more locally? There are a number of ways you can get involved in the local community:
King's Park Ward Forum: Each ward in Hackney has its own ward forum which is run by local Councillors and residents as a way to improve the local area together. These meet every three months, and all residents are welcome. At recent meetings we have discussed the our plans to improve our parks, housing, parking and helped organise a community fun day.
