Spending the day with Lewisham’s unpaid carers restored my faith in human kindness. Help is on hand from Lewisham Council. But carers in our community deserve support from everyone. A small act of kindness from you to them can go a long way.

I want to thank the people of Lewisham for placing their faith in me. Serving this special borough that I have the privilege to call home is the greatest honour of my life. I pledge to work tirelessly for you, and will always have your best interests at heart.
