There’s plenty going on in this cold January. You can research your family history at the Kentish Town Library or sample the delights of birdwatching on Hampstead Heath.

First up is Tom Boyle’s report on volunteering in Camden. He meets with Sheila Norris from the Volunteer Centre Camden then takes a trip to Hampstead Cemetery to meet Green Gym volunteers. Go to a monthly volunteer fair or visit the website.

Next, Marian brings us a story about the Wikipedia page for King’s Cross Central. The question is, how should this area be described and who should be doing the describing? Marian talks to Rebecca Ross, a lecturer at Central St Martin’s and organiser of the event to rewrite King’s Cross Central wikipedia page.

We do love to celebrate New Year and what better group to help us do that than Cheerleaders? Now when we think of Cheerleaders we may associate them with America, but while its roots may be there, it’s a movement that‘s thriving in Britain, and even in our own backyard in Camden.
