The Hackney & Newham History Social Club

In a city like London, the anonymity means you can end up not finding out about the interesting lives and stories from people who live right next to you. This fantastic community project, funded by The Heritage Fund, has returned for a new series, all featuring stories and anecdotes from different voices who all happen to live on the same street.

The podcast will also be preserved in the Hackney Museum and Archives so that future generations will be able to enjoy it as much as the current ones.
