New Centre new storage solution
On the way down Well Street |
Yesterday (Tuesday 25th April) ICiC & CCH took delivery of refurbished 40 foot shipping container from the Budget Container Co. It is to serve as a bike and equipment store for the Elsdale Centre's on going cycling delivery programme. This week we are moving out of Nightingale Estate after a 10 year residency, the old 70s concrete, condemned building is finally coming down as part of the wider regeneration project going on there. We'd like to thank our main supporter and partner Hackney Council Housing for setting us up in our replacement base and office.

New base for Interlinkx CiC and CC Hackney
Time at Nightingale Estate & Olympus Square is just about up, we're set and ready to move on. As director of ICiC I signed a legal document with Hackney Council (our main sponsor and enduring partner) for a new home for us at the Elsdale Community Centre E9. This
is a long term arrangement and we will be moving to this space this week. Both organisations (Interlinkx CiC & CC Hackney) will
accommodate and run sessions that effectively outreach the neighbourhood
and serve those that would otherwise not access quality cycling in the
Borough of Hackney. Delivery here will be happening as an on going
commitment that is in line with our main sponsor's informed policy and
the general headline view 'Hackney: a Place for Everyone'
Working from here will be a significant change for the better, we have the potential to make a positive and lasting impact at the ECC. Unlike Olympus Square, this building is not condemned for demolition; we could be here happily ever after!
I'd like to thank everyone who has helped and supported us so far (10 years) and I'm looking forward to seeing what we can do for those that like cycles and cycling from our next home.
Below is a time line regarding this move:
The last session from 6 Olympus Sq: 15.04.17
Saturday youth group sessions start at ECC: 06.05.17
1. Outreach & beginners introduction session 10.00h - 12.00h (Keir & Zemi)
2. Established and experienced session 09.00h - 11.00h (Neil, Prosper & Harry)
CCH & ICiC's Elsdale Community Centre launch party TBC : 20.05.17 (6-10pm)
