You may have noticed a new mural on our hoarding. This is more than your average piece of street art, it represents a new community.

East End Chinatown are a new tour de force in Shoreditch, a collective of Asian creatives exploring their cultural identity through art, enterprise and shared experience.

Their latest work, Galloping Into New Territories, created by talented visual artist Mr Lee, celebrates the Fire Horse zodiac. A symbol of energy, courage and forward momentum, it speaks to bold steps and meaningful progress.

It felt fitting. A reflection of the ambition within the local community, and of Huntingdon’s plans for the year ahead.
