Many South Londoners already keep fit by enjoying the city on foot -- including the celebrity South Londoners who are supporting our Get Walking Keep Walking project. We asked the celebs to share their favourite London walks with us.

Comedian Jo Brand (right) says "A favourite little meander is the well loved Lordship Lane in Dulwich. A balance of slight incline and flat, and a bit of a climb up the top end, but joyous for the fund of distractions, the colour and variety, and the persuasive aroma of the kebab shop just at the end!"

Floella Benjamin OBE TV presenter Floella Benjamin OBE (left) says "My favourite place to walk is along the Embankment from Westminster to the Tower of London, because I discover the old and the new London. Keep fit and feel proud of this great city!".

Comedy actor June Whitfield CBE (right) says "Wimbledon Common is a great place for a walk, but so is walking around the shops - even if it's window shopping!"
