This talk will reveal the sporting history of the site and the unique transformation of this area, first a training ground for Olympic athletes then the wheelchair tennis venue for the Paralympics and how it’s now a world-class hockey and tennis venue for all to enjoy.

Led by the architect who designed this elegant venue, Rawden Pettitt from Stanton Williams – who lives a stone’s throw away - and Lee Valley Regional Park Authority’s Chief Executive, Shaun Dawson, find out how Eton Manor was transformed to home London 2012’s only purpose-built Paralympic venue.
