An afternoon of poetry and singing reminiscing about how London has changed was held at a Hindu temple in Ilford.
The VHP Ilford Hindu Centre, Cleveland Road, Ilford hosted the afternoon which was attended by more than 100 people.
Ravi Bhanot, who attended last week’s event, said: “It was very positive, people were very happy that they could enjoy local artists. People thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon.”
About six people performed with some reading poems they had composed themselves
Mr Bhanot added: “They were reminiscing when they came to this country and how things have evolved, it gave time to reflect.”
