The lovely representative from L'Oreal, Councillor Keith Moffitt, Leader of Camden Council & CTU's Chief Executive Simon Pitkeathley.

In 2007, Camden Town Unlimited were approached by Garnier and L'Oreal with funds to give a much needed facelife to the world famous mural on the South face of the Camden Lock Bridge, which had not been repainted since it was first done over 20 years earlier by Camden Lock Market.

Working closely with Network Rail, London Borough of Camden, and Camden Lock we were able to orchestrate the repainting of this iconic image to new found glory.

In 2008, this time partnering with the London Borough of Camden, we undertook painting the North face of the Camden Lock bridge. This tied in with a wider campaign we worked on with Camden Council called Camden Town: Turning London On. We hope that this new mural will soon become as iconic as it's cousin on the South face of the bridge.
