In this video, we take a deep dive into South London’s vibrant, energetic heart: Peckham. Known for its incredible street food, global organic producers, and rich cultural mix, Peckham is a community like no other.
Join me as I chat with local business owners, market stall traders, and everyday members of the public who keep this area thriving. Beyond the bustling streets, I also sit down with members of the local homeless community, including one local woman who shares her harrowing account of the horrific struggles and life-or-death fights she’s had to endure just to survive on the streets. Her story is a raw, powerful, and deeply moving glimpse into the realities many face today.
