Young people made videos to explore growing up in #Newham and youth crime.

One of the #NewVoicesForOldStories heritage projects was a youth-led #community event, celebrating 35 years of the Aston-Mansfield Community Centre (formerly Froud Centre).

The day echoed activities of the past to cater for children, young people and members of the community.

#Newham #ManorPark
A range of photos from the community event, including, a group of young people chatting in a circle, a large spread of food, a bouncy castle, a group of adults and children painting and creating craft, a video set up on a computer, old newsletters and flyers from Froud centre and a drawn and jewelled elephant craft.
