Havering AC

A family athletics club out in the far east

🏃 Havering Weekly Track Competitive Beginner-friendly

Formed in 1968, we're a friendly family club for runners and athletes of all abilities from age 11 up - the kind of place where whole families end up training together.

Our main base is Hornchurch Stadium, with a satellite at the Lee Valley Athletics Centre in Edmonton, and we cover track and field, road and cross country. Experienced coaches, a strong junior section, and a properly inclusive feel.

If you're in the far east of London and want real track facilities with a warm welcome, this is your spot.

Real stories of people who found their people in London.

Claire Donnelly · 7 June 2026 I sat silent at book club for months. Finding my voice there changed my whole life. I'd spent my whole life letting other people's opinions fill the room. A monthly book club, and one patient question, taught me that mine mattered too. Marcus Bennett · 9 June 2026 I can't do small talk. At a board game night, I finally didn't have to. Parties, pubs, the dreaded "so what do you do?" - I'd given up on meeting people. Then I sat down at a board game night and the talking just happened sideways. Erin Walsh · 16 June 2026 Socialising never made sense to me. At a board game night, the rules were finally written down. As an autistic adult, the unspoken rules of socialising always left me lost and exhausted. A board game night was the first place the rules were actually explicit - and I could finally relax.
