Annual Review 2020
BRINGING YOU CLOSER ANNUAL REVIEW 2019/20 WHO WE ARE EECF was established in 1990 by the London Docklands Development Corporation as its forward strategy for continued community investment. Vision A philanthropic East End free of poverty. Mission To drive philanthropy and charitable giving that responds to community needs and aspirations in East London, both now and in the future. Bringing you closer to the... Challenges Facts People Outcomes 2 WELCOME We started the year, as always, with the ambition of surpassing our successes of the previous 12 months. As the year headed to a close, we had achieved that goal and were ready to celebrate our achievements just as COVID-19 arrived. Our plans were put on hold and in true East End fashion we responded with passion, determination and most recognisably, resilience. Within 48 hours of lockdown we had launched our Emergency Fund and just days later we were providing much needed financial support to local charities serving our most vulnerable residents. I am delighted with what we have achieved and I would like to pay tribute to our donors, volunteers and key workers delivering essential community services. Our success is a result Howard Dawber of a huge community effort. We can all be extremely proud of our achievements. In the first Chairman three months of 2020/21 we distributed over £630,000 that reached thousands of residents experiencing hardship. The fund will continue to run throughout the year, adapting to emerging community needs, as there is still much more to do. The East End will pull through, as it always does, but the virus has shone a spotlight on a number of acute issues – loneliness, mental health, digital exclusion and food poverty among others.

Making a Home in Silvertown – Transcript
Making a Home in Silvertown – Transcript PART 1 Hello everyone, and welcome to ‘Making a Home in Silvertown’, a guided walk in association with Newham Heritage Festival and the Access and Engagement team at Birkbeck, University of London. My name’s Matt, and I’m your tour guide for this sequence of three videos that lead you on a historic guided walk around Silvertown, one of East London’s most dynamic neighbourhoods. Silvertown is part of London’s Docklands, in the London Borough of Newham. The area’s history has been shaped by the River Thames, the Docks, and the unrivalled variety of shipping, cargoes and travellers that passed through the Port of London. The walk focuses on the many people from around the country and around the world who have made their homes here, and how residents have coped with the sometimes challenging conditions in the area. It will include plenty of historical images from Newham’s archives. There’s always more to explore about this unique part of London, and I hope these videos inspire you to explore further. The reason why this walk is online, instead of me leading you around Silvertown in person, is that as we record this, the U.K. has some restrictions on movement and public assembly due to the pandemic of COVID-19, or Coronavirus. So the idea is that you can download these videos onto a device and follow their route around the area, pausing them where necessary. The videos are intended to be modular, each beginning and ending at one of the local Docklands Light Railway stations.

The Industrial and Community Heritage of Silvertown and North Woolwich Introduction
The industrial and community heritage of Silvertown and North Woolwich Introduction The Islanders is a project that aims to preserve the industrial and community heritage of Silvertown and North Woolwich. It is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Royal Docks Team. Volunteers and local participants have contributed significantly to the project. Thames Festival Trust thanks Newham Archives (The Islanders’ Heritage Partner), London Metropolitan Archives and Eastside Community Heritage. In the nineteenth century, London’s eastern boundary was at Bow Creek, where its noxious industries began to congregate. From shipbuilding, to silver, iron, oils, soap, rubber and manure, London’s industry was developing on the fringes of the city. By the completion of the Albert Dock in 1880, Silvertown and North Woolwich had effectively become an ‘island’. It was bordered by the Thames to the south, and by the Royal Docks and its lock entrances to the north, east and west, the only way in or out was by bridge, ferry or tunnel. Learn more: To find out more, scan the QR codes on your smart phone to follow the growth and hear the stories of this ‘island’ community through the generations. September 2021 Left: Goad Fire Insurance Plan, May 1900 (The British Library) 3 The origins Prior to the nineteenth century, Silvertown and North Woolwich was an uninhabited marshland called Plaistow Level used for grazing cattle, and frequented by smugglers, prize fighters, and high tide flooding, sat between Bow Creek and Gallions Reach. In the 1840s, the area was sold cheaply at an ‘agricultural price’ to a consortium of developers.

What Is the Silvertown Tunnel?
What is the Silvertown Tunnel? The Silvertown Tunnel will be a new twin-bore tunnel providing a road link beneath the Thames from the Blackwall Tunnel Southern Approach on the Greenwich Peninsula to the Tidal Basin roundabout in the Royal Docks area. The Silvertown Tunnel alignment Our current estimate is that the tunnel will cost around £750m. Construction could start in late 2017 and the soonest that the tunnel could be open is 2021/2022. The section beneath the Thames will be built as a ‘bored’ tunnel, using a tunnel boring machine similar to those used to construct Crossrail. The sections either side of the river will be built using the ‘cut & cover’ technique, in which the ground is excavated, following which the tunnel is built and then covered over. The tunnels will be accessible to all motorised vehicles. There will be two traffic lanes in each direction, in a separate bore. One lane in each direction could be reserved for buses and HGVs. We will build new junctions to link the tunnels into the existing road network, and new portal buildings to house the infrastructure necessary to operate the tunnel, including ventilation equipment. Changes to the A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach Road We would need to make a number of changes to the existing road network on the south side, on the immediate approach to the new tunnel. These changes are: • Widening the A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach road in order to create new access routes to the Silvertown Tunnel portals. • Demolishing the existing footbridge over the A102 near the junction with Boord Street, to allow for the A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach to be widened.
