Working Group minutes
Local residents and businesses applied and were independently selected to sit on the Affordable Workspace and Creative Wellbeing Space key stakeholder working group. The working group members shared their knowledge of the area to help the design team and Newham Council better understand the aspirations of the broad range of key stakeholders. This guided the design and delivery of the projects for the Creative Wellbeing Space and Affordable Workspace. The meetings were held between July 2021 and March 2022.
