With Labour leadership Lambeth was the first London borough to declare a Climate Emergency.
We’re retrofitting council buildings, supporting renewable energy and promoting sustainable transport.

Petitions
This week, we were proud to open a new reading room in honour of the life of award-winning author Alex Wheatle MBE, also known as the Brixton Bard, at Brixton Library in Windrush Square, which he visited regularly.
Libraries are a vital part of Lambeth’s rich cultural story, and they remain at the heart of our communities today.
That’s why we continue to invest over £4 million a year in them. From skills and employment sessions for young people, to language lessons, to providing access to books and learning resources to support rehabilitation in Brixton Prison, they serve communities across our borough every day.
🚨 Should Lambeth’s last police station stay open 24/7? 🚨
Under current Metropolitan Police plans, Lambeth’s last remaining police station will have its hours reduced from March.
We don’t think this is right.
We need your help to send a clear message to the Met Police: Lambeth needs a police station open 24/7, with more resources for neighbourhood policing.
✅ We’ve recently secured 28 extra police officers for Brixton
📉 Violent crime is falling across Lambeth
❌ Now is not the time to cut access to our last police station
👉 Add your voice in the comments below and back our call to keep Brixton police station open 24/7.

We need this police station to stay open - money needs to be found if that’s the reason.
Lambeth Labour has once again reaffirmed its commitment to the Freedom Pass for over 33,000 residents in Lambeth.
Lambeth Liberal Democrats abstained on the vote to protect the Freedom Pass, while the Lambeth Green Party were not even in the room.
Lambeth is the 5th highest borough in Freedom Pass usage, and we believe that losing access to the Freedom Pass would hit the poorest Londoners hardest, at a time when finances are stretched more than ever.
Labour is once again standing up for residents and protecting concessionary travel in Lambeth and across London.
