I am proud to call Camden my home, especially because I grew up facing limited opportunities.

Full statement

My parents have always worked incredibly hard as responsible citizens, even though their efforts often went unnoticed. Their dedication truly inspires me, and I am grateful for the community that surrounds us.

But over the years, I have seen the growing gap between us —the residents—and the Labour-led council in Camden. With rising crime, overdevelopment, unsafe neighbourhoods, and antisocial behaviour, there is a real sense of mistrust between us and the council. Is Camden listening? No!

These experiences have taught me that we must act to serve and protect our community, as true service comes from action, not just ambition.

This is why I am proud to be part of the Primrose Hill Community Association and The Friends of Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill, committed to supporting residents—especially the vulnerable—restoring residents’ voices, and revitalising our community. As a Local School Governor, I engage with parents, staff, and the wider community to ensure that our pupils achieve the best educational standards. By participating in the Primrose Hill Safer Neighbourhoods Team (PHSNT) panel meetings, I share consistent and timely information with the police, helping to foster a safer community and maintain a high quality of life for residents in Primrose Hill.

My focus is on ensuring we have clean and safer neighbourhoods. We need a visible police presence, more CCTV coverage, and increased street lighting to help us feel safe in Primrose Hill. As your prospective Councillor, my priority will be to fight for Primrose Hill to receive its fair share of community neighbourhood policing from the Metropolitan Police. I also aim to restore due diligence in development and consultation processes by promoting in-person consultations instead of relying on online robots, to help rebuild trust between residents and the council. Primrose Hill residents must be heard before final development decisions are made.

I am standing as your prospective Councillor to listen, bridge the gap between us and Camden, ensure our voices are heard, prevent concerns from being overlooked, and keep the Primrose Hill dream alive.
