London Borough of Hackney Council

In the run up to this year’s World AIDS Day on Saturday 1 December, a series of events took place across Hackney to raise awareness of HIV and testing for the virus, championed by the Mayor Philip Glanville and Cllr Feryal Demirci, Deputy Mayor and Cabinet Member for Health, Social Care, Transport and Parks.

Revised proposals to support local schools to continue to improve are being shared with teachers, parents and residents.

Planning documents can sometimes come across as technical documents, and it can be difficult to understand what they actually mean or do. At first glimpse, Hackney’s draft Local Plan, agreed by the Council last month, could appear to be just that – a 250-page document even without the various add-ons!
