In response to findings in the ‘Hackney Wick Through Young Eyes’ report, highlighting a lack of amenities for young people in the area, Hackney council are developing a multi-use sports facility for young people behind the Old Baths on Eastway in Hackney Wick.

Young people have been involved at all stages of the design and planning process and their ideas are reflected in the final designs for the classroom and the name of the facility – Young Hackney Eastway. The new facility includes a new multi-use sports area, classroom, office, toilets, storage area for local groups to use and a courtyard.
