Women and children celebrating the 10th anniversary of an education centre for the disadvantaged had a right royal time on Wednesday when Princess Anne dropped in for a visit.
The Princess Royal joined those at Baytree Centre in Brixton Road to unveil a commemorative plaque. She met people taking part in the IT and English language training sessions at the centre, as well as the youngsters who joined in the after-school homework programme. The centre was set up 10 years ago to help unemployed and socially excluded women into work. It now boasts a successful youth programme and crèche for the under-twos.
Princess Anne was given a tour of the facilities and even popped into a dance lesson for youngsters.
