Tina Turner was raw. She was powerful. She was unstoppable. And she was unapologetically herself—speaking and singing her truth through joy and pain; triumph and tragedy. Today we join fans around the world in honoring the Queen of Rock and Roll, and a star whose light will never fade.
Tonight we launched our intergenerational Make Space creative workshops in partnership with @vam_east 🧶🪡
📍Hosted at BADU Café, our first session was with tailor Tapiwa Dingwiza, Stitch & Sew Academy.
Stay tuned, the openings for future sessions open soon 👀

There is a long shadow of multi-generational pain & trauma caused by a police force that persistently stereotypes, wrongly criminalises & disproportionately hurts the Black communities of Hackney
The #CaseyReview vindicates them
Our response to it: https://t.co/8MobQke6y2
Last week, the team went out for a coffee date, but with an alternative motive: to support @BaduSports Coffee, which just opened in our neighborhood!
They do incredible work for young people and we're really happy to be close to their new community cafe in #Hackney
A massive shout out to this group who took part in the Queen Elizabeth 10k run this month, thanks to @LondonLegacy. An opportunity to get the community out and for some to take part in their first 10k run. Well done to all 🖤❤️

Key @hackneylabour manifesto commitment being delivered by @carowoodley & I, hope it'll be a real conversation - looking at what we do, best practice, new models & local need for affordable child care. We need practical options that'll work in Hackney & also policy asks for Govt.

Earlier, after #LunarNewYear at @hackney_bridge had to pop back to @BaduSports and get a coffee at their new cafe. Always impressed to find @Mr_Badu behind the counter & a few familiar faces having coffee.
