Crofton Park is a brilliant place and I want to continue being a strong local champion for our community.

Full statement

My priorities are cleaner streets, safer roads, action on speeding and antisocial behaviour, better housing standards and local services that work properly for residents. With Labour now in opposition on the council, strong scrutiny matters more than ever. I will work to hold the Greens to account and ensure Crofton Park has a clear, active and hardworking voice at the council.

Promises:

Local champion for Crofton Park. As a local opposition councillor I would be entirely focussed on what’s best for us.

• Support our local charities. I want to use my experience as a Lewisham charity trustee to help more local charities.
• Campaign to tackle speeding with safer crossings and by working with the police to organise community speed watch events.
• Support Gorne Wood. I’ll work with the Fourth Reserve, our local MP and cross-party to help save this vital green space.
• Safer and cleaner streets. I’ll campaign for more CCTV to catch flytippers, increase enforcement, and encourage effective and affordable large-item collections and recycling.
