Lots of people were at the Camden New Town Festival in Camden Square in July. Freddy Chick and Sarah O’Brien were there to talk to the stall holders and those enjoying the Festival.

There were free bike repairs from cycling campaigners, free head and shoulders massages from Camden Women and Health and there was food and drink as well as music, song, dance and gymnastics.
