Find out how the Olympics will affect Hackney Wick and Kings Park neighbourhoods

A special meeting is being held for residents of Hackney Wick and Kings Park to help them find about how the 2012 Olympic Games will affect the local area.

Hackney Council has invited all residents and community groups to the event, which takes place next Tuesday at the Wally Foster Community Centre in Homerton Road.

Organisers will be giving out information about jobs and volunteering opportunities during the Games, as well as updates on the Hackney Marshes development – which will form part of the Olympics site.

Attendees will be able to watch a series of presentations, including one from the Olympic Park Legacy Company, who are in charge of managing the site once the Olympics are over. Residents will be able to meet some of the Olympics and Paralympics youth ambassadors, and council members involved in the Games will also give talks.
