On 24 August 2008 the Beijing Olympic Games came to a close. The eyes of the world are now on London - and Newham - as hosts of the next summer Olympic Games. To mark the occasion films have been produced starring Newham people performing Olympic-inspired feats and reflecting on their dreams and ambitions for 2012.
Newham Council is improving the children's play area in Forest Lane Park in Magpie Close, Forest Gate as part of a £15 million investment in leisure facilities and parks.
