  • An Introduction to the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
    Part 1 An introduction to the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea is the second smallest, but most densely populated, of the 33 local authorities1 that are responsible for local government in London. Only the City of London is geographically smaller. The Royal Borough’s has a population of more than 184,000 people that makes it the size of a medium-sized town, comparable to Luton, Northampton or Aberdeen. Kensington and Chelsea is also one of the most distinctive urban communities in Britain. It is the most densely- populated local authority in the country and, in the context of an urban setting at the heart of a megalopolis, it offers one of the most attractive places to live or work anywhere in the world. The present Royal Borough was created during the re-organisation of London local government in 1965 as a result of the merger of the Metropolitan Borough of Chelsea and the Royal Borough of Kensington. King Edward VII conferred the status of Royal Borough on the Borough of Kensington in 1901 in memory of his mother, Queen Victoria, who was born and brought up at Kensington Palace. Kensington and Chelsea is therefore a relatively recent recipient of the Royal Borough status compared with other communities that carry this honour. The Council of the Royal Borough carries out the full range of functions for which unitary local authorities in England are normally responsible. These are education, housing, social services, refuse collection, street cleaning, planning and the provision of parks, libraries and leisure services.

  • Working in Groups of Two Or Three, Divide the Following Brief Introduction to London Into Paragraphs
    London Working in groups of two or three, divide the following brief introduction to London into paragraphs. London has a great deal to offer visitors. Whether your tastes are modern or traditional, sophisticated or simple, there's plenty in London for you. Most visitors do some shopping, and there is an enormous range of possibilities, from the market bargains of Petticoat Lane (Sunday morning) or Portobello Road (Saturday morning) to the jewellery and furs of Hatton Garden and Bond Street. A simple walk along Oxford Street will satisfy most ordinary needs or, if you want everything – from pins to pianos – under one roof, then Harrods is the shop for you. You will probably want to mix your shopping with a little sightseeing. You can visit the great buildings, such as St Paul's and Westminster Abbey, or you can watch the Changing of the Guard, or you can rest your feet in one of the large central parks, and mostly free of charge. Not all the sightseeing is free, of course; you'll have to pay to go to the zoo in Regent's Park, to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower, or for a boat trip along the Thames. Then there are the arts, both ancient and modern. The British Museum and the Victoria and Albert Museum have enormous collections of art and artefacts from many different countries, and the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square houses paintings by the old masters. The more modern world can be seen in the Science Museum, the Planetarium and in the paintings and sculptures of the Tate Gallery.
