Слайд 3Ethnic communities in London
According to 2006 estimates, 30.6 per cent
of London's population is from an ethnic minority (defined as
non-white) and 42 per cent belong to groups other than white British.
Слайд 5London areas
The administrative area of Greater London contains thirty-two London
boroughs. Inner London comprises twelve of these boroughs plus the
City of London. Outer London comprises the twenty remaining boroughs of Greater London.
Слайд 6Irish London

communities in London and as such, have had an enormous
impact on the city. Look around, and you'll see plenty of evidence of Irish culture and heritage everywhere you go.There has been an Irish community in London since medieval times
There are 220,000 Irish in London
Слайд 7Irish London
Kilburn – "Little Eire" or "County Kilburn" as it’s
often referred to – is home to one of the
largest Irish-born communities outside Ireland itself.It is situated partly in Brent, and partly in Camden.
In Kilburn you can buy the Irish papers, meet Irish friends, hear accents from all over the island and enjoy the area's many restaurants and bars.
Слайд 8Irish London
Leaving the Brent side of Kilburn and heading over
the Camden border, via Quex Road, you'll find the enormous
Sacred Heart Church, the spiritual home of the area's Irish Catholic community. Further into Camden and into Camden Town itself, the London Irish Centre has been at the heart of Camden Town's Irish population for over 50 years.

London's African population is now far bigger than its
Caribbean one, which isn't surprising. In North Africa there are
communities of people originating from east, west and southern Africa. Indeed, when we talk about Africa, we're talking about a continent that is home to an almost infinite variety of cultural influences, many of which have made their mark on London.
Слайд 23African London
Almost 80 per cent of all Britain's African communities
live in London, compared with 50 per cent of the
Caribbean community.The areas of Peckham and Elephant & Castle (South East London)
are synonymous with West African culture, particularly Nigerian.

multicultural areas of the North East London, with sizeable African
communities. Ridley Road Market in Dalston bursts with African food, knick-knacks and textiles while Hackney's Mare Street boasts the famous Hackney Empire, a venue committed to a wide range of comedy and theatre that reflects the area's diversity.

Слайд 58Pakistanis
Around 70% of British Pakistanis trace their roots to a
place that is now under water. In the late 1950s,
when the contract to build a dam at Mirpur in southern Kashmir was awarded to a British company, the British government greased the wheels by promising passports and employment to the many thousands of Mirpuris whose homes were about to be flooded for ever.Shortly afterwards, thousands of farmers, many of whom had never even planned to move house, set off to become steel smelters and cloth weavers in the factories of Birmingham and the industrial north. It was the first large-scale movement of Muslims to Britain.
Up to 8,000 of them ended up in Woking.
Слайд 59Pakistanis
The first generation of Pakistanis in Woking often found jobs
at the British Aerospace plant in Weybridge (where they worked
on Concorde, among other things) and in other local plastics and rubber factories, now defunct. Through the 60s and 70s, a steady trickle of families abandoned the north and followed them, encouraged by reports of more work and better pay. When the price of Woking houses began to exceed the reach of Bradford wages, the trickle stopped.
Слайд 60Chinese London
The Chinese community is one of London's oldest communities.
Britain began trading with China in the 17th century and
Chinese sailors had reached London on board East India Company ships by 1782. This small group lived around Pennyfields and Limehouse Causeway near the docks. By the end of the 19th century, the Chinese dock community in London numbered over 500; primarily single men and some married British women.
Слайд 61Chinese London
Today over 78,000 Chinese people of diverse origins live
in London. The majority of these can trace their roots to
Hong Kong. Others come from mainland China, Malaysia, Vietnam and Singapore.
Слайд 62Chinese London
Chinatown has since been transformed by Westminster City Council,
to become a major tourist attraction and a cultural focal
point of the Chinese community in London. More recent arrivals to the area have been mostly Fujian immigrants from mainland China. Chinese Community Centres, schools and churches offer key services. They provide meals and Chinese satellite TV access for the elderly, as well as sports facilities, language lessons and housing advice.

Belgravia -- South of Knightsbridge, this area has long
been an aristocratic quarter of London, rivaling Mayfair in grandeur.
Although it reached its pinnacle of prestige during the reign of Queen Victoria, the Duke and Duchess of Westminster still live at Eaton Square, and Belgravia remains a hot area for chic hotels. The neighborhood's centerpiece is Belgrave Square. When town houses were built from 1825 to 1835, aristocrats followed -- the Duke of Connaught, the Earl of Essex, and even Queen Victoria's mother.
Слайд 69Posh London
Kensington is a fashionable neighborhood. Southeast of Kensington Gardens
and Earl's Court, primarily residential South Kensington is often called
"museumland" because it's dominated by a complex of museums and colleges, including the Natural History Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the Science Museum; nearby is Royal Albert Hall. South Kensington boasts some fashionable restaurants and town-house hotels. One of the neighborhood's curiosities is the Albert Memorial, completed in 1872 by Sir George Gilbert Scott.

The area has always been a favorite of writers and artists, including Oscar Wilde, George Eliot, James Whistler, J. M. W. Turner, Henry James, and Thomas Carlyle . Mick Jagger and Margaret Thatcher have been more recent residents, and the late Princess Diana and her "Sloane Rangers" (a term used to describe posh women, derived from Chelsea's Sloane Square) of the 1980s gave the area even more recognition. There are some swank hotels here and a scattering of modestly priced ones.

Geographically and culturally, it often refers to working class Londoners,
particularly those in the East End. Linguistically, it refers to the form of English spoken by this group.
