Josh at the clock in Lewisham Town Centre

Lewisham's Future can be...

Clean

Lewisham has the third worst fly-tipping of any borough in England. That's unacceptable.
My cleanup strategy includes community skips, detailed use of data and better enforcement.

Sustainable

I have spent my career working for climate action and greener neighbourhoods.
I will lead a council that gives nature, air quality and climate the priority they deserve.

Affordable

We have a Housing Crisis.
As Mayor, I will build a housing system that truly cares.
I will prioritise repairs and build more social housing for Lewisham families.

Safe

Too many people feel unsafe on our borough's streets.
I will bring together different agencies to reduce crime, not just catch offenders - I will bring back real community policing.

Thriving

A strong community needs jobs and opportunities.
I will support small businesses, startups and entrepreneurs to grow and stay in Lewisham - creating real local jobs.

Led by You

Your Council should deliver openness and value for money.
Consultations will be real and will be listened to. Decisions will be made democratically, not by expensive consultants.
