Description BBC Constituency Profile:

Situated in south London is the seat of Camberwell and Peckham. Labour since 1945, the party's deputy leader Harriet Harman has represented the constituency since 1983. Ethnically diverse, it has the highest proportion of Afro-Caribbean residents - 37.4% - of all the constituencies in England and Wales, according to ONS 2011 Census figures. At 50.6%, it also has the highest proportion of social housing of any seat. More than one in 10 is a lone parent.

The area is also socially diverse with fine Georgian houses in parts of Camberwell, while Nunhead to the east has experienced considerable regeneration in recent years. King's College Hospital, one of London's largest teaching hospitals, and the Maudsley Hospital are major employers. One in seven is employed in human health and social work.

In 2010, Labour held the seat with 59.2% of the votes; Liberal Democrats got 22.4%, Conservatives 13% and Greens 2.9%.
