About

North East London Cancer Alliance (NELCA), in partnership with Inspire Activity, are thrilled to be holding our first ever Haggerston Community Games for People Living with and beyond Cancer. This event held at Haggerston Park on Saturday 28th June, is exclusively for the patients and their families of NELCA.

A local showcase for activity and health advice.

This free event will offer inclusive fun, regardless of age or ability, and allow you to try different sports and physical activities in a safe and friendly environment. There will also be several health stations offering helpful advice and information to everyone attending.

The event will be held on Saturday 28th June 2025 from 11am - 3pm at Haggerston Park, Yorktown Street, London E2 8NH.

WHY?

Physical activity plays a vital role in the physical, social and psychological wellbeing of children and is essential to their on-going care, rehabilitation and long-term health.

Often our patients and families feel that they are not able to participate in activities, including sport – we want to show them that they can and give them an idea of the resources available to them.
