Will controllers attending C/N/W_CTR normally provide services for arrivals into EGLL/EGKK when traffic density allows or is it strictly not practiced?

Yeah, they do. I've had them even provide pushback/taxi instructions on the ground as well.

Just to clarify:

 

LON_C, LON_N and LON_W will (should) not be handling Gatwick top-down, at all.

 

LON_S is the overlying sector, and is often bandboxed with C to give LON_SC (covering both the S and C sectors).

 

In summary, the only LON callsigns providing top-down at Gatwick are:

 

LON_S_CTR

LON_SC_CTR

LON_CTR (when, rarely, all four sectors are bandboxed together)

Just to further expand on Simon's post, the following image on the VATSIM UK site shows which sector covers where in the UK:
