40,000 gather for UK's largest gathering of Christians
An estimated 40,000 Christians have crammed into London's Excel Centre for the Festival of Life.

Hosted by Pastor EA Adeboye, those gathered heard from a number of speakers, musical acts and drama.
In 2015, Prime Minister at the time David Cameron visited the Festival of Life to give an address.
