AN exhibition looking at how the Olympics impacted on Redbridge will be held in a museum.

Visitors will be able to watch a short film showing how the police base on Wanstead Flats, accommodation for security personnel at Hainault Forest Country Park and training facilities at Redbridge Cycling Centre impacted on the community.

A video diary made by a Redbridge resident and Olympic volunteer provides an inside look at the Games.

The exhibition at Redbridge Museum, Central Library, in Clements Road, Ilford opens on October 30 and runs until February 23 2013.

The cost of the exhibition is free and for more information call 020 8708 2317.
