Calling users of Seven Kings Library and Thackeray Drive Children’s Centre services
Have your say on the proposed relocation of Seven Kings Library and Thackeray Drive Children’s Centre services to the planned Seven Kings Community and Health Hub. If you currently use these services, Redbridge Council would like to better understand how the move might affect you: will it encourage or discourage you from using the services in the new location and what recommendations do you have to limit negative impacts.
The public consultationlaunches on 13 June and ends on 29 July. It is only focusing on the location of the services and not any changes to the services themselves. The feedback will allow the Council to consider ways to ensure the move is positive for residents.
The current location of Seven Kings Library is on Seven Kings High Road, opposite to the High Road location of the planned Hub. The Children’s Centre services are based at Thackeray Drive Children's Centre, a 12-minute walk from the new site. They are proposed to move into a purpose-built new Seven Kings Community and Health Hub being built on the car park and lorry site near the Seven Kings train station, which will be ready for public use in 2026.
This will be the first of the Community Hubs to be built as part of an exciting programme across the borough co-designing hubs with local residents. Other hubs are
proposed for Gants Hill, Hainault, Wanstead and Woodford, with a Civic Hub in Ilford. These will be in accessible locations, to allow most residents to be able to walk to their local hub within 30 minutes and cycle to them in 12 minutes.
The Hubs will bring together different services for local people, and provide a place where they can come together and run activities. They will act as a central access point for a range of community, cultural, health and council services in one location.The services and spaces in each hub are being determined with residents based on local needs. The co-design process so far has engaged around 1000local residents and young people to determine design priorities, what will be in the hub, how it will run and spaces for young people.
For users of Seven Kings Library Services, please feed in your views by clicking here or on the second survey link to the right.
For users of Thackeray Drive Children’s Centre services, please let us know your thoughts by clicking here or on the survey link to the top right.

The buildings will be designed to fully meet required accessibility standards for the needs of people who have a physical disability and/or sensory impairment.
