Allen Gardens - Healthy Borough Zone
In partnership with the Healthy Boroughs programme we are pleased to offer a family zone with a focus on well-being.

Within the zone you will find ’Club Mum’ - a chilled out zone for families with young children, where you can either relax in the soft furnishings or get creative through music and arts activities.

In the community tent you’ll find dance workshops provided by Tamarind Theatre Co. and visual arts workshops inspired by healthy eating and Bangladeshi arts and crafts, provided by Emergency Exit Arts working with local Bangladeshi artists.

You can also get advice on how families can be healthier as part of the national Change4Life campaign. Tower Hamlets is one of nine designated ‘Healthy Towns’ nationally to receive government funding to promote physical activity and healthy eating in the borough while improving the local environment.
