Since opening our Forest Gate restaurant, bar & record emporium Tracks back in June 2018, it’s grown from a labour of love to an established neighbourhood hub. We pride ourselves on local values and collaborate with many local artists and makers. We host a diverse program of events encompassing live music, workshops and festivals including Forest Gayte Pride, International Workers Day and Spring Is Queer Festivals plus many pop-up markets to support small, local business. We’re incredibly proud to be awarded accreditation as a Newham Community Wealth Building Champion and London Living Wage employer.
In 2021 we submitted to Newham Council our large grant scheme bid proposal as part of their community wealth building strategy to support Tracks’ recovery and re-orientation in navigating the post-pandemic landscape. We were successful in securing funding to create a community-focused area in Forest Gate that adds long-term, sustainable value to the local community and businesses.
We’re also giving further exposure to local entrepreneurs and small businesses through the grant-funded medium of our online community-driven magazine ‘The Forest’. A collaborative platform that champions community, The Forest shines a spotlight on small business & grassroots projects, all through the lens of budding writers & local authors. Since launching last year we’re already achieving up to 10,000 visits per month and the exposure we’ve given to Newham-based business and entrepreneurs has contributed to local success stories including Wild Beauty’s Mary Simmons who, as a result of the coverage in The Forest has opened a salon in Forest Gate.
Our community wealth building initiatives have driven forward an inclusive economy. The pandemic has been a catalyst in many of our local residents re-evaluating their careers and lifestyle so we have helped nurture a co-operative economy to support local creatives and encourage entrepreneurship regardless of age, background or experience.
