ALT A shopping trolly has been covered with white card, which has the words 'WARDS CORNER COMMUNITY PLAN' painted in bright colours on, as well as some painted ice lollies. A person stands behind the trolly in a black t shirt holding a flyer for the Community Plan, listening to someone else talk.
ALT In the centre of the photo is a table covered in green fabric with the words 'Wards Corner Community Plan' in black on the fabric hanging below the tabletop. The table has different pieces of paper on – some are sign up sheets on clip boards, and some are printed flyers, and at the back of the table are upright fold out displays with photos and information on. Three people are standing and sitting around the table, looking at the camera. Across the road in the background is a red London bus.
