  • HACKNEY SOCIAL RADIO – the Story So Far June 2020 – April 2021
    HACKNEY SOCIAL RADIO – The Story So Far June 2020 – April 2021 SUMMARY OF ACHIEVEMENTS During the height of the first COVID-19 lockdown, from June to September 2020, we successfully produced 15 episodes for the first series of Hackney Social Radio – a community radio show created by older people, for older people, specifically aimed at the digitally isolated in the London Borough of Hackney. As the country went into the second lockdown, we re-launched for Series 2 with the intention of supporting our community of makers and listeners for as long as we could. We were fortunate to receive funding from the Henry Smith charity and CAF and will have created 35 episodes for our second series, which ends on 14th July 2021. To date we have produced 41 weekly 59-minute radio show, which broadcast every Wednesday at 11am. Programmes are transmitted through Resonance 104.4FM, played out on their online radio player, and available for ongoing playback through Mixcloud. We enabled 178 local people to participate in the production of the show in the first series and so far, 181 people in the second series – these included the production team, feature makers, feature contributors, editors, and interviewees – local artists and creatives, community activists, volunteers, service users and experts such as representatives from Local Government, GPs, faith leaders, advisors, and community champions. Our contributors have represented the diverse communities of Hackney with features and interviews covering for example Windrush events, Chinese New Year, Jewish and Muslim Festivals. We have covered a wide range of art forms from theatre to photography and music with our 78-year-old DJ playing requests from our listeners.

Foreword The London Mayor’s draft Environment Strategy says: “All Londoners should be able to enjoy the very best parks, trees and wildlife.”i We agree. But our new research shows that many of London’s parks, and our enjoyment of them, are marred by traffic noise. Though 44% of the 885 London parks we surveyed are completely free from the sound of traffic, almost a third (29%) are severely impacted by noise from nearby roads.

  • Wards for Communities Hackney Conservatives Submission on The
    Wards for Communities Hackney Conservatives submission on the new electoral arrangements for London Borough of Hackney September 2012 1 1. The Commission's draft proposal was published in July 2012 and we are supportive of its proposals to retain 57 Councillors for the London Borough of Hackney. A mayoral form of local government does not require less scrutiny, it requires more as power is more centralised than in other forms of government. 2. We oppose the basis of the review as we believe that the data supplied by Hackney Council in predicting future electoral growth is faulty and underestimates the growth in the population in the North East of the Borough. 3. Should a new scheme of wards be required, however, we are broadly supportive of many parts of the Commission's draft proposals but think it can be enhanced to: Aim for greater electoral equality; 4. The range of variances from the average of the Commissions proposals is for 2011 go from -9% for Haggerston to +8% for Stamford Hill East and for 2017 -9% for Haggerston and +9% for Brownswood. We think it to be ill advised to have a scheme that widens over time and pushes ward sizes so close to the tolerance level for triggering another review. We have, therefore, prepared an amendment that would provide for a 2011 range of -8% (New River) to +8% (Victoria) closing in 2017 to -5% (Springfield) and +6% (manor House). Recognise communities; 5. Some of the proposals have retained divisions which this review should have attempted to fix. Putting local community centres such as Chatsworth Road, Well Street and Wilton Way at the middle of wards as the basis for reorganisation would help their nascent renaissance.

  • Motor Traffic Reduction Scheme for the De Beauvoir Area (Hackney) Consultation Report July 2016
    Cycle Superhighway 1: Motor traffic reduction scheme for the De Beauvoir area (Hackney) Consultation Report July 2016 1 CS1 De Beauvoir area Consultation report Executive summary This document explains the processes, responses and outcomes of the consultation on the following scheme: ‘Cycle Superhighway 1: Motor traffic reduction scheme for the De Beauvoir area’. Between 6 October and 16 November 2015, we consulted on proposals for changes in the De Beauvoir area as part of Cycle Superhighway Route 1 (CS1). We sent consultation notification letters to 11,000 addresses in the De Beauvoir area, and sent details to approximately 1,000 stakeholders and 50,000 individuals on our email database. We received 1,180 responses to the consultation, of which 57% supported or partially supported our proposals. We received a petition against our proposals signed by 930 people. The petition opposed the closures to motor traffic and called for decisions on traffic management in the area to be evidence-driven. We received a number of identical emails from residents in Islington objecting to the scheme on the grounds that it would displace motor traffic to nearby roads. The main themes raised during consultation are highlighted below, with detailed analysis in Appendix A on p33. Issues raised by respondents Of the 1,180 people who responded to this consultation, 833 provided a comment on the proposals in the open text field. The most frequently raised issues were: • Positive comments, supporting the principle of reducing through motor traffic in the De Beauvoir area, saying the proposals would be beneficial for cycling, pedestrians, residents, road safety and pollution • Concern from people in Hackney and neighbouring borough Islington about motor traffic displacement to nearby roads, with most concern about Southgate Road and Englefield Road.
