On Saturday afternoon, North London Cares held our third event of Camden Intergenerational Week and our sixth session in 5 days, following on from our Quiz Afternoon in Queen's Crescent, two Film Nights and the Knit & Knatter and Shared Histories sessions.

It was a really lovely gathering, right at the heart of our patch at the Castlehaven Community Centre in Camden Town. Older people came together to learn from the culinary wizardry of some of our Chinese student volunteers. They were joined by a local young family and other community champions from the local area.

It's only short, but this video gives you a sense of the fun we had at our special lunchtime event. Blink and you'll miss it!
