Mayor of London Boris Johnson posed for photographs with his street party ambassador Barbara Windsor outside City Hall on Tuesday afternoon to promote the Big Lunch.
The national event, which is now in its fifth year, is led by The Eden Project and funded by the Big Lottery with the aim of encouraging people to get together on one day a year to share a day of community, friendship and fun.
This year's event is on 2 June and details of how to get involved can be found at www.thebiglunch.com
