Summary
COI synopsis: London is a magnet for thousands of visitors from all over the world. Though stimulating, like all big cities London can also be a little bewildering, especially for young people a long way from home and friends. ‘The Centre’ is a new kind of meeting place in the heart of London which has become something of a second home for young people from all over the world living and working in the city. London Line cameras show something of how this one club attracted as many as 27,000 visits during the last year alone.
