"The results are in and People’s World had a winning theme at this year’s Notting Hill Carnival.
The theme entitled A-F-R-I-C-A-N - ‘A Free Race In Culture And Nobility’ took
second place on Sunday and first place on Monday in the category
Historical/Traditional. The Band were place 2nd overall in the

This follows a fabulous year
when in 2012 they attained 1st and 2nd places with the
theme ‘Fire and Ice’ – 30 Years on the Road and counting...’ which commemorated
the riots and the rebirth of Tottenham symbolised by a Phoenix rising from the
ashes.
People’s World is based at
the Old Brewery in Tottenham High Road and 90% of it’s members are under 25
years. They operate year round
activities for young people including weekly workshops in bicycle maintenance,
dance and drama, arts and crafts, costume design and construction, computer and
film clubs, as well as after school homework/project club and youth club.
Sally Sturgeon, Co-ordinator
of People’s World said “we take our cue from the young people and try to
provide activities that they enjoy and at the same time
promoting a positive community ethos. We
encourage young people to be the best they can be with whatever they chose to
participate in. We try to make every day
a memorable experience for our young people.
Funding is always an issue,
and we are looking for regular funding or sponsorship to continue our
activities.""
