Last weekend hundreds of people came to the Feel Good Too centre as Waltham Forest hosted the first round of the CEV Continental Cup.

The European Volleyball Federation (CEV) chose the Feel Good Too Centre in Leyton to host the event, where the England men's and women's teams began their quest to qualify for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

The England Women played teams from France, Belarus and Northern Ireland while the England Men played Switzerland and Armenia.

Waltham Forest’s Connecting Communities programme aims to inspire others to do something positive by shining a light on our local heroes and providing residents with opportunities get involved in their communities.

When Connecting Communities held its first meeting in Leyton last month, the turnout was impressive and the enthusiasm was infectious.

Leyton Area Manager, Carolyn Sellick (pictured) said: "The first Connecting Communities meeting in Leyton was a very inspiring! Five people signed up to a community mentoring scheme, and residents shared their thoughts across a range of issues, from better supporting isolated older people to engaging young people."
