About Sean Alayo
My lived experience of growing up in Newham is what drives my interest in preserving its heritage.
I am exploring regeneration and the everyday culture of post-2000 Newham to capture and create stories that strengthen community identity for future generations. I intend to produce prose, short form media, and a reflective report.
