Thousands of people gathered in a Bellingham park for the area's annual family fun day.
Hosted by Phoenix Community Housing, there were more than over 60 stalls and attractions including rock climbing, graffiti, knitting, polo, and representatives from community groups including the Downham Nutrition Partnership, Lewisham Scouts, and Farmstead Road Community Gardens.
The event even featured its own talent show - Phoenix’s Got Talent - to showcase the skills of people throughout Downham, Bellingham and Whitefoot.
Tatanya and Neilaa, who performed a self-composed track were crowned winners of the contest.
Phoenix chief executive Jim Ripley said: "The festival is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate all that’s brilliant in south Lewisham – a wonderful sense of community and special people that work hard all year round to make our area a better place to live, work and play."
