It's Windrush Day and starting today into next week, we’re honouring our borough's rich Windrush heritage with events across the borough.
With events supported by Windrush Microgrants and others run by our partners, there's a lot on offer.

Good news for kids this half term! From dodgeball to drama, there’s loads happening around the borough in our Half Term Holiday Programme! Places are free for children who receive free school meals or are experiencing financial hardship.

👇 Let us know where you're volunteering in Lewisham!
Great to be speaking at London’s Community Reailience event tonight at @LDN_gov on our work with @LewishamCouncil developing a Community Response to emergencies. Thanks @MayorofLondon and @londonplus18 for the funding and support.
Today, I was pleased to meet with the Schools Minister @NickGibbUK to discuss the issue of racist discrimination in schools.
In 2012, the Government said schools no longer had to record racist incidents. I told the Minister that this continues to be the wrong decision.
I am delighted to have been appointed as the Shadow Minister for Youth Justice.
Excited to work with @ShabanaMahmood to help restore trust in the justice system for children and young people following 13 years of failure from this Conservative Govt.
