This year marks the 81st anniversary of the Coronation Avenue bombing of 1940, which is commemorated by our Civilian War Memorial.

The Abney Park Trust is unable to host the event on site on account of the ongoing restoration work. So we have teamed up with the Newington Green Meeting House to host a series of talks there. Speakers will include Rabbi Herschel Gluck and the Rector of St. Paul's West Hackney, Niall Weir.

As well as this, we will be projecting some of the footage from last year's online commemorative event.

Tickets to this event are free but limited to a capacity of 35 to ensure that the event is Covid-secure.
