Sustainability leaders Groundwork London welcomed over 120 supporters to their Canning Town base to help celebrate the success of their Olympic Games-inspired projects.
Joining them at Cody Road were members of local community groups, partners, councillors and stakeholders.
The afternoon included entertainment, skills workshops, games and exhibitions which will be followed by an awards presentation.
That recognised the achievements of its Spots v Stripes Games Ambassadors and those who have been part of the Transform Project.
