OAPS enjoyed a mixture of West Indian and English culture at a party to celebrate Black History Month.

Voluntary group Make a Difference organised the bash.

It included West Indian and English music and food at Streatham's Darby and Joan club in Leigham Court Road.

About 60 pensioners enjoyed a performance by a Rastafarian drumming group based at Kennington's St Agnes Place.

Saxophonist Rudi Jones - who performs under the name Mr Rudi - also entertained at the club.

Make a Difference chairwoman Gloria Bailey said: "People enjoyed the performances so much - everyone was tapping their feet."

Lambeth's deputy mayor, Councillor Daphne Marchant, gave a speech at the party on Thursday afternoon last week.
