Great to be at City Hall today to meet Deputy Mayor @debs_wb and leaders from 4in10, Citizens Advice Lewisham, and London Plus. Thank you for talking to me about your partnership work with the GLA and how the Civil Society Covenant can support your work and the wider VCSE sector.

The major water leak on East Dulwich Grove is causing havoc for residents & disrupting the education of pupils at Charter North Dulwich School

The poor communication from @thameswater since Thursday is totally unacceptable

When will repairs be complete & water supply restored?

London has joint 2nd highest regional child poverty rate at 35% & 3/5 local authorities with the highest rates of child poverty are in London.

During #LDNChallengePoverty Week, I visited @EalingFoodbank in Acton, where volunteers do brilliantly to support >100 each week. It's tragic food banks are still needed in 2024, with demand ⏫ & donations ⏬
Proud to be fighting for a fairer London: tackling poverty & inequality.

The huge toll poverty takes on health, both physical and mental is undeniable.

Recognising and acting on this fact is essential to the well-being of both individuals and our city.

Problems managing day-to-day living costs can be a huge source of anxiety.

And when this takes hold, it can impact physical health too.

Take action this #ChallengePovertyWeek.

No one in the UK should be living without the basics like food, heating, or shelter. Yet 3.8 million people are in destitution.

We’re calling for a Poverty Zero law to hold the government accountable for ending extreme poverty by 2035.

📢 Take action today: Email your MP and demand change! 👇
