Three more years of Culture Within Newham!
Great news for Newham and a tribute to the work of @Comm_Links over 50 years, reflecting their strong local roots. Well done to the team and always pleased to champion you at City Hall! culturewithin.org.uk/news-bl…
Proud that Community Links contributed to From Disparity to Fairness: Legal Access in Newham, highlighting the lack of housing & immigration advice in the borough. We're appointing a new Housing Solicitor to lead our free advice service, needed now more than ever

We are delighted that @lynbrownmp celebrated the hard work and creativity of our @Comm_Links Links Media College students in Parliament yesterday.
Spoke today in support of the Tobacco and Vapes Bill to celebrate young people combatting misinformation about vapes, including the good work being done through @Comm_Links Media College in Canning Town.
Wonderful to see our local MP speaking on this important topic and amplifying the voice of our young people in the halls of power. Lyn is a wonderful advocate, ensuring young people's voice is part of the debate! @Catch22
