Honor Oak Sure Start in the London borough of Lewisham celebrated its second birthday last week with a visit from 'EastEnders' star Sylvester Williams, known to viewers as Mick who ran the 'night caff' in Albert Square. As a father who regularly does the school run, he talked about the contribution men can make both within the family and in the wider community. After speaking, he toured the Sure Start stands, which included dental health, additional healthcare, antenatal support and early education. Entertainment included music and magic shows by Betty Banana and Funky Mr Fox, African music and costume, and face painting as well as dance and music workshops for under-fives.
