The Purple Bus is a mobile IT unit that travels to different estates. You can gain accredited qualifications; access the internet; take part in sessions on sexual health; and take part in sports sessions or bike maintenance sessions outside the bus.

• In January 2008 a second Purple Bus was launched by the Mayor of Hackney and a group of young people from Hackney Free School. The second bus is an updated version of the original vehicle and features a private room for individuals to have 1-to-1 talks with youth workers, better disability access and a pull-out stage area, as well as computers and flat-screen tvs.
