Discover Hackney’s Heritage Partnership funded a pilot for a series of walks for children, families and adults in Hackney Wick and the area that borders the London 2012 Olympic Games site.
In 2009 the Society in collaboration with Hackney Archives published an illustrated storywalk for children and their families. Using poetry and local history this fun and colourful walk takes you through historic Hackney Wick – a place where inventors, industrialists and sportsmen came and excelled.
Poems by Ralph Rochester. Illustrations by Zara Slattery.
An associated audio project was commissioned and the resulting programme was published from archived material in 2016.
