The Hackney group joined Olympians and Paralympians past and present, including cyclist Sir Chris Hoy, swimmer Ellie Simmonds, hurdler Sally Gunnell, middle distance runner Seb Coe (who led London’s bid for the 2012 Games) and US sprinter Michael Johnson to tour the Olympic Stadium, where they were interviewed by the BBC, and even got a chance to race the 400m world record holder down the home straight. Turn to page 3 A day on the water at West Reservoir 11 GREEN WITH PRIDE By Gracia Douglas HERE were celebrations when Hackney was awarded three new Green Flags, which recognise the UK’s best green spaces. National environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy awarded the prestigious flags to parks in Hackney, which brings the total in the borough to 12 – among the highest in London. The new Green Flag parks are Well Street Common, E9; Cassland T Gardens, E9; and Clapton Square, E5. These are in addition to the nine sites that have retained Green Flag status in 2010. St John’s Churchyard, E8 has also kept its status as a Green Heritage site, one of only 13 in London. The Council celebrated the announcement at Well Street Common, where Cllr Jonathan McShane, Cabinet Member for Community Services proudly raised one of the latest Green Flags. He said: “Five years ago Hackney only had one award for its parks; now we have 12. This is a wonderful achievement that demonstrates how far we have come in making sure that residents and visitors have access to the welcoming, safe, clean and pleasant Green Flags in Hackney: Clissold Park, N16 London Fields, E8 Well Street Common, E9 Cassland Gardens, E9 Shoreditch Park, N1 Haggerston Park, E2 De Beauvoir Square, N1 Hackney Downs, E5 St John’s Churchyard, E5 Springfield Park, E5 Clapton Pond, E5 Clapton Square, E5 areas they deserve. Congratulations to the staff, user groups and local organisations who have worked so hard to look after our valuable green spaces.” St Mary’s Secret Garden, E2, achieved a Green Pennant award – given to community and voluntary groups who successfully manage their own public spaces. East Reservoir Community Garden, run by London Wildlife Trust; and Hackney Community Tree Nursery and Edible Forest Garden, run by Hackney Marshes User Group also retained their pennants. The award scheme is the national standard for parks and green spaces in England and Wales. It encourages a high level of environmental standards, creating a benchmark of excellence. To be eligible for an award, parks must also submit a five-year plan for continued maintenance and improvement.

At the basketball court, youngsters joined John Amaechi, the British former Orlando Magic and Utah Jazz basketball star, and Paralympian and TV presenter Ade Adepitan. The main stadium is also taking spectacular shape, with a temporary 100m track tested out by the young people and 400m world record holder, Michael Johnson, although on this occasion he was beaten over the shorter distance by 10-year-old 3 Monique Williams. She said: “When it started I was behind in the race then I caught up to everyone else. He told me ‘well done’ after. The day was really good.” The group – who were interviewed by the BBC – was made up of Hackney 2012 Youth Ambassadors, who promote the Games to other young people, and primary pupils who took part in Hackney’s Personal Bests sports programme. In addition, an appeal was launched for volunteers to help with ticket checking, uniform distribution, staffing helpdesks and more during the Games. A total of 70,000 London 2012 ‘Games Makers’ are needed to help at the Olympic Park, as well as 8,000 ‘London Ambassadors’ to guide the millions of visitors travelling across the capital to the arenas. Tickets for London 2012 are set to go on sale in spring 2011, but registration is still open. To date, more than 1.4million people have signed up.

It will be one of the first 50 places in the country to benefit from the funding, earmarked to improve regional neighbourhoods. An independent charitable trust will be set up to run the programme, and BIG is looking for individuals and community groups to get involved and help run it. The funds will not be available until autumn 2011, but in the meantime, the Council will be working with local people and BIG over the coming year to identify which projects the money could be spent on. Cllr Jonathan McShane, Cabinet Member for Community Services, said: “We are delighted that Hackney Wick is due to receive this substantial cash injection to help pay for the community projects and initiatives that residents most want to see happening on their doorsteps.” BIG plans to invest up to £200million over the next decade to help regenerate 150 urban and rural neighbourhoods. The deadline to apply to join the Hackney Wick trust is 12 August.

More than 40 people attended the event on 3 August, where residents including Hackney Community College construction students discussed training and employment with subcontractors working for Berkeley Homes, the Council’s development partner for the regeneration of Woodberry Down. The Council and partners are currently building more than 4,500 new homes on the site, including affordable housing, a community centre, health centre, new academy, and extended primary school, as well as retail and commercial COUNCILLOR Maureen Middleton of New River Ward, North Hackney, has passed away after suffering a heart attack. She was 68. First elected as a councillor in 1998, Cllr Middleton was committed to representing the borough and highly valued by her constituents. She served on many committees during her time as a councillor, and following the 2010 election was a member of the Health in Hackney Scrutiny Commission; Inner North East London Joint Overview & Scrutiny Commission for Health; Living in Hackney Scrutiny Commission; and North East Neighbourhood Committee. Councillors and the Mayor of Hackney expressed their regret at the death of Cllr Middleton, and sent their condolences to her friends and family, paying tribute to her years of work in her local community and tireless commitment to taking up cases on behalf of her constituents.

In this regular feature, we profile the borough’s great & good or just plain interesting 11 hackneypeople Thinking outside the record box By Marcel Reinard T’S just as well the inexhaustible music encyclopaedia locked in the vaults of Gilles Peterson’s head has no bearing on his actual record collection in N4. After years of seeking out just about every genre and sub-genre, from 1950s folk to bedroom dub-step, the BBC Radio 1 DJ finally lost the battle with his everincreasing horde of vinyl. “I was living on Brownswood Road, but it was when I had children and the collection was too big that we moved to Stoke Newington. Now I live there and walk across Clissold Park to get to the studio,” he says. The old house is also the base of his new company Brownswood Recordings. Twenty-five years at the top has furnished him a not undeserved mantle as a music taste-maker and a risk-taker tapping into artists working outside conventions. That’s not to say he doesn’t know a good chart tune when he hears one: the back catalogue of artists he produced became the cornerstone of UK I soul in the early 1990s – Jamiroquai, Brand New Heavies, Incognito and Young Disciples. He began his career on pirate stations in the 1980s, spinning records at London soul nights, one of many being Special Branch at the Royal Oak in South London with the rest of the capital’s DJ royalty. “ I couldn’t be living in a better part of the world right now, let alone London Curriculum Vitae: Gilles Peterson 1964 1986 1989 1990 1998 2006 2010 ” “I’d play upstairs and downstairs it was Danny Rampling, Paul Oakenfold and Nicky Holloway. That lasted four years, a very important weekly club. Out of it came nearly everything that we have today in the UK,” he claims. His name became synonymous with acid jazz, a warped, electronic take on jazz funk. It started as ‘just a joke’, his and a friend’s answer to 1980s acid house. He says: “It was a great time, but after two years I was beginning to feel the Born in Caen, France Presents BBC Radio London show Sets up Talkin’ Loud Records Leaves Jazz FM Starts at the BBC Sets up Brownswood Recordings Tours Europe with Havana Cultura sound, the music, and acid jazz name was ghetto-ising itself, it was becoming a mod thing, a retro thing.” Setting up his own Talkin’ Loud label – a name taken from his Camden club night – with Norman Jay, he had numerable successes along the musical spectrum. Legal stations picked up on his talent too and his CV includes Jazz FM – before his show was axed for ‘inappropriate’ music and his anti-war comments during the first Gulf War in 1991 – Kiss FM when it first received its licence, and the BBC. And he still presents the Radio 1 Worldwide show, currently in its tenth year. Not bad for someone who began his career setting up his own station as a teenager with an aerial suspended between a tree and a phone box. Now in Hackney for 20 years, he continues to be amazed by the music on offer locally. “I didn’t think there was much of a music scene here for ages, but obviously now it’s a complete explosion, it’s incredible, it’s never been better, whether it’s Stoke Newington, Shoreditch or Dalston, Hackney is unbelievable; I couldn’t be living in a better part of the world right now, let alone London. “The main thing is just what’s happening with the exposure – it’s gone from Shoreditch and now it’s hitting Stoke Newington and you’ve got places like Café Oto in Dalston and all DJ Gilles Peterson has been based in Hackney for 20 years these great places,” he says. His new big project is Havana Cultura: a collaboration of previously unknown Cuban singers and rappers, himself and talented pianist Roberto Fonseca. “There weren’t that many people taking risks in Cuba. Obviously there are brilliant musicians, but it’s all quite safe and what you would expect. For me it’s about finding the cracks between the pavement to find where the real radicals were living,” he adds. Now touring with a selection of the artists featured on the album, in typical style, he’s already looking to the next project. He says:“I want to get some new producers from around the world and get Cuban vocalists. People like Diplo; getting the cutting edge producers of electronic music into Cuba to spend time recording stuff with a lot of these artists and see what comes out of the experiment.” With such a successful career, it’s hard to pin him down on the highlights: “I’ve been able to play everywhere – it’s all good. I’ve met all my heroes, though I still need to do an interview with Herbie Hancock. I haven’t spent time with him yet. “It really doesn’t feel like 25 years, I’m still as active as I ever was,” he says.

The 16 July event offered bouncy castles, games, C “ No-one managed to splat the rat, but there was a lot of shrieking with anticipation ” raffles, face-painting, cake stalls, a jumble sale, and competitions for children and older attendees. There was also a football shooting game for budding future sports stars. NEWS IN BRIEF Around the world A CELEBRATION of culture from across the world has taken place at Whitmore Primary School in N1. For its international afternoon, pupils, teachers and parents entertained guests with Turkish dancing, a fashion show, steel band and choir performance. There was also a routine from SPLATs circus skills company and music from DJ Devon. Hannah Robertson, one of the organisers of the 9 July event, said: “We had food stalls from Africa, Turkey, India and an English cake stall, which all went down very well. “Everyone found it interesting experiencing little bits from the cultures of their fellow pupils. We made over £600 for school funds, which was also a great plus to the day.” Tips for high flyers Fete to remember By Marcel Reinard 15 One visitor noted particular interest in ‘Splat the Rat’ – where children from the E8 school had to test their reflexes by hammering an unseen rodent toy. She said: “No one managed to do it, but there was a lot of shrieking with anticipation.” THE founder of one of the largest outsourcing companies in the UK led a Skinners’ Company’s School for Girls class to encourage a new generation of high flyers. Former Capita Group chairman Rod Aldridge (right) headed a GCSE Business Studies lesson at the school, focusing on how the new budget will affect the economy and their own lives. Rod encouraged academic attainment and advised pupils to keep an open mind when exploring careers. He also backed entrepreneurship as providing opportunities for personal and economic growth. “If they take away the message that they can succeed by applying an entrepreneurial mindset to their lives, then I will feel the session was worthwhile,” he said. Retiring from Capita four years ago, Rod set up The Aldridge Foundation, which aims to inspire young people through education and entrepreneurship. The visit was organised by educational charity Teach First. Up for debate ASPECTS of voting reform were keenly argued during a debating competition involving A-level students from Hackney Community College. Two teams of three pitted their wits against each other in a competition that focused on ways to increase voter participation: reducing the voting age to 16; allowing nonUK citizens the right to vote; and making voting compulsory. The event was organised by UBS and was the culmination of a four-week internship programme at the financial company. Before the 21 July contest, held at UBS’ city offices, both teams attended a series of training sessions on presentation, advocacy and negotiation skills. Sneh Brahmbhatt, whose team helped convince the audience to disagree with compulsory voting and votes for non-UK citizens, was chosen by judges as the best speaker. 16 9 August 2010 www.hackney.gov.uk advertising To advertise on these pages call David Roberts on 020 8356 2416 9 August 2010 There’s so much to do in and around Hackney.

Sunday arguably focused more on disco with Chromeo, Peaches, Cut Copy, Horse Meat Disco, Jocelyn Brown and irrepressible headliner Grace Jones. Many have commented on her youthful appearance having little bearing to her age of 61, but her star quality surpasses any superficial references, as does the back catalogue of exceptionally good dub and funk. She performs better than many of her contemporaries could dream of, and even Hot Chip summoned up all of their collective emotions to nod their heads in quiet appreciation.

Info: info.kcha@btinternet. com KIDS’ SUMMER CLUB Every Mon-Fri, 2-4pm A free summer activities club Hot from the street REVIEW Staff Benda Bilili By Miranda Yates Staff Benda Bilili, Hackney Empire, Mare Street, E8, 20 July HOT, hot, hot, both inside the sweltering Empire and on the stage as this Congolese band got into their groove. The music was utterly relentless, tirelessly dynamic, and layered in earthiness with vocal harmonies that cut a clear pathway through all the crazy stuff. Apparently Benda Bilili’s tunes come straight off the streets of the Congo, and it’s true these former street-dwellers do exude a truly exotic energy that’s a far melodic cry from Mare Street – even at 28 degrees. What’s served up is witty stuff; a blend of roots music, blues and Cuban drum rhythms that will only ever allow you to leave the dance floor when you can barely breathe your fifth request for an encore. The name ‘Staff Benda Bilili’ means ‘look beyond appearances’, a reference to the band’s disabilities – all the musicians had polio as children, and appear on stage in wheelchairs and on crutches, in hats and in a line across the stage that never stopped dancing. The musicians – who inspired a French documentary about their lives and appeared at the Cannes Film Festival to a standing ovation – have an uncanny ability to make their disabilities appear and disappear, as the show goes on. When one singer gets out of his wheelchair we’re reminded; but when he dances like there’s no tomorrow, down low on the stage floor, you stop seeing, until he jumps back into the chair. What we have in Staff Benda Bilili is wise musicians in wicked control of their audience – and don’t they just love it. STA Bikes for kids 7-11yrs.

MMC, a group of young people from Hackney, aged 15 to 19, proudly premiered the film they have produced, directed and starred in.

We did a survey of over 200 young people from two different schools in Hackney and realised that only 14 per cent actually remember the road safety messages aimed at them.” The 15-minute film is intended to be used by schools, community organisations and youth groups, and will also be put on YouTube and Facebook. ‘Concrete Dreams’ is the result of a project organised by the Council’s Road Safety Team, in partnership with Abbot Street Studios, African Caribbean Development Foundation and Dbiz8 Empowerment Consultancy.

Job Profile Murthy Balakrishnan Trading Standards Manager, talks to Hackney Today about the Senior/Principal Commercial Standards Officer role Why is the Trading Standards Team a good place to work? The work we do is not only varied and interesting, but it is also incredibly rewarding. Everyone feels annoyed when they hear about people being ripped off, and we can practically help residents. The team is tight-knit, highly motivated and professional and everyone is really supportive. We all have our own areas of expertise and all officers are given the opportunity to explore and research their area. What makes this a rewarding job? It’s really satisfying to empower residents to make informed purchasing decisions in a borough that has such a diverse population. The service puts out warnings and pre-shopping advice and reacts very quickly to issues. It’s also rewarding to give high-quality trader advice to small businesses in the borough. Feedback has been very positive. The job can be exciting, but it also has a problem-solving side that is really satisfying. What are the main challenges? One of the key challenges is meeting the needs of hard to reach communities in Hackney who may have concerns, but don’t know who to contact for help. We also need to come up with new ways to use the resources that we have effectively, and balance nationally-driven projects and policies with local needs. What attributes will the successful candidate have? They will need to be very resourceful, a good team player and someone who can demonstrate that they are both innovative and practical, with excellent problem solving skills. They should have experience in most areas of Trading Standards work and be adept at managing a challenging workload. They’ll need to be flexible and work unsociable hours on occasions.

The last borough elections were in May 2010. Councillors have a range of responsibilites, including helping to oversee the Council and its services. They hold advice surgeries where residents can meet their local representative and ask them to take up issues that may be of concern. Generally they can help with Council related matters, but if the issue is the responsibility of another person or organisation, councillors can often point people in the right direction and tell residents who they need to see. Hackney has 57 councillors representing areas called wards – illustrated in the map opposite. To check which councillor covers your area, or confirm surgery times, call: 020 8356 3373.
