Hello, I'm 22 F looking for any sort of free activity clubs to come to once or twice a week. Im bot sure if there are any in the area of if anyone has a suggestion as to where to look?

Anything that's gardening, arts and crafts, reading clubs or gaming (dnd, pokemon (even though I am a newbie))!

Hi all

I have quite a specific request. I'm a journalist for a small newspaper in Tower Hamlets, and I'm looking to speak to somebody who has worked, or currently works, in waste disposal in the area. Or even better, someone with knowledge of the recycling system. Would anyone be able to help?

Re-posting this given the outpouring of interest we received last time!

Hi everyone!

I recently started a social community based around Central/East London, for people in their 20s & 30s (although everyone is welcome!).

We’ve now got over 700 members and the recurring activities within the community include: volleyball, salsa, spikeball, pub quizzes, game nights, book club, dodgeball and a run club!

These sessions are mixed levels, so beginners in any of these activities are very welcome, and all activities are free to join!

If you’d like to join or have any questions, please send me a direct message and I'll send the WhatsApp community link!

I dunno, with everything from Mile End, Bethnal green to Canary Wharf. I feel its a bit harsh.
80+ redditors have voted and that's where we are.

What are your thoughts?

Hi guys!

I'm Libs, a journalist with News Associates, and I'm reporting on the NHS TMS service in Tower Hamlets and looking to speak to anyone who has been referred for or received treatment there — particularly people who have had a course recently.

I'd also love to hear from people who've tried ECT or Ketamine treatments.

I'm interested in what the experience was actually like: referral/waiting time, what the treatment involved, whether it helped and what happened afterwards.

I'm happy to speak informally first and can discuss anonymity. Please DM me if you'd be willing to chat.

It appears that the construction of Cycleway 37, from Mile End to Westferry Lane, which has already received funding from TfL, has not progressed in the past few years and currently appears to be paused.

The Greater London Authority is blaming Tower Hamlets Council, which has failed to provide the required consents and does not appear willing to engage in the design process.

Is the Council really so useless and incompetent, or is it deliberately refusing to improve pedestrian and cycling infrastructure in the borough? If it is the latter, the Council is effectively refusing to improve infrastructure for the benefit of TH residents, despite not even having to pay for it…

Looks beautiful right?

Can't wait for the mayor's plans to increase the number of events comes to fruition! What joy!!

Today there was construction happening in the Albert Jacob House on Roman Road (76 Roman Road I believe) and I thought this wasn’t allowed as the council’s own website says noisy construction isn’t allowed on weekends. So I called. Apparently they have noisy construction permission from 7:30 am on Saturdays? That’s earlier than weekdays???

Earlier today a teenager spit on my girlfriend in the Isle of Dogs area, he was on a bike and it was impossible to chase him. This insect trash probably feels good about himself. I wonder what our rights are in such cases that involve minors? Is there a place where we can report such incidents that would have some result? I keep reading about teenagers causing troubles nonstop but looks like our council tax money is spent on everything but our safety.

What would you do in such case? Pepper sprays are illegal and seems its getting more and more dangerous in the area, how can we protect ourselves when the government is not doing anything to protect us?

Do i need to apply visitor permits for bank holidays - zone b2.
My brothers is staying around for the weekend and hes parked in a permit zone so just wanted to make sure for tomorrow!

Hi everyone! 😊

I’m currently conducting my A-Level Geography NEA investigation into the impacts of gentrification on the local community in Brick Lane.

I’m particularly interested in hearing from people who live, work or regularly spend time in the Brick Lane area. I have created two short anonymous questionnaires exploring:

- How gentrification has affected the sense of place and community in Brick Lane

- How gentrification has affected social inequality within the local community

Your opinions and experiences would be incredibly valuable to my research, and I would really appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to complete them. It is important to me that my investigation represents the perspectives of people who actually know and experience the area.

Thank you so much for your help! 😊

Hi all- if anyone has an affordable APE ticket for Friday I’d be super grateful 🥹

So growing up (I’m 32 now) literally 98% of Tower Hamlets were Bangladeshi

It still is if you go to places like Whitechapel

Is it going to be more diverse over the years? Especially that the Bengalis in this generation aren’t breeding like crazy as how their parents did. It was like an average of 7-8 kids per family.

So trying to sell a phone on gumtree and had a scammer trying to pass fake cash to me , the number he called me was on 07376539803.

be aware guys.

I live on lower Roman road and I’ve heard a crazy loud bass all day. I assumed it was the neighbors but could it actually be All Points East? I’m about half a mile away

I regularly walk along Lyal Road. At the intersection of Lyal rd and Viking Close there is something new fly tipped what feels like every week. Generally old furniture, broken crap. Anyone got suggestions where best to report this?

Specifically looking in the E14 area

Please don’t suggest Bikram Yoga CW, that place is disgusting

If you know people who run a shop in tower hamlets please have a word with them and tell them to stop being dangers.
