The Queen visited the South Bank on Thursday morning to reopen Jubilee Gardens and to celebrate the 60th anniversary of BFI Southbank.
Representatives of the local Latin American community and Southwark Council gathered at the Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre last week to celebrate the authority's decision to recognise Latin Americans as a distinct ethnic minority.
A new CitySafe Zone has been established by five shops and cafes around Elephant & Castle which have pledged to offer their premises as places of safety for people in immediate danger.
