ADRENALIN Dance was founded in 2001 and has an artistic residency at St John-at-Hackney church. It teaches fun, contemporary-based dance classes for children and playful adults, which explore the body’s natural movement potential, as well as fresh approaches to choreography.
THIS traditional Homerton boozer has been closed since 2012 after it was bought by a developer who hoped to build a block of flats on the site. Residents and the Campaign for Real Ale have been fighting, supported by Hackney Council, to get the pub reopened and it was listed as an 'asset of community value' after a landmark tribunal ruling in 2013.
