Almost time for the Notting Hill Carnival and there are few people more dedicated than Allyson Williams. Her late husband was one of its founders and she hasn't missed a carnival for 44 years. In that time she's sewed and stitched thousands of colourful costumes to help give the carnival its colourful vibe. And she told us how, with a little help from her daughter, she's still going strong. | ITV London

Carnival on BH Monday! Notting Hill Carnival is one of the longest running street parties in the world. Started in 1966, it’s a celebration of Caribbean culture with a parade in the streets of West London over August Bank Holiday, showcasing the best of soca and calypso. With steel bands, dancers in feather costumes and the air filled with the smell of jerk chicken. This weekend over 2 million revellers joined in the celebration of one love.I had so much fun. Hope you enjoy the reel! Sending hug
