The West Ham YHA Grouphttp://westhamyhagroup.blogspot.co.uk/ was founded in the early 1950s by some young people from what is now called Newham,in the 50s there was East and West Ham. The group was formed by folk interested in cycling and youth hosteling. A club night was held once a week in a school hall and each weekend there would be a cycle run or a weekend away at a youth hostel in Essex or Kent.
