We're investing £2.6m in London Bridge & West Bermondsey, ensuring that when big developments happen locally, the money comes back into supporting amazing community projects.

Here's just some of what we as local @southwarklabour.bsky.social councillors are investing in:

Great to be back at Magdalen Hall TRA last week.

Residents were really pleased to hear we are giving £600k of CIL funding for security improvements at St Saviours Estate and £165k to help revamp Magdalen community hall for all sorts of activities and events.

Very good news London Bridge Post Office will be staying open after some risk.

Thanks to 650+ residents who signed our petition, and the Post Office for meeting us as ward cllrs.

Still more conversations to be had on the new set up but good progress 👇

@teamlondonbridge.bsky.social BID play a big role in supporting businesses and helping make London Bridge a better place.

Their AGM and summer gathering last week was a great event, good to chat to lots of the businesses in our area!

Delighted the new pedestrian crossing on Long Lane is now complete.

Something residents have called for for a long time and which we've made sure is delivered using our ward funding.

Glad residents can now enjoy the benefits when walking in this area.

Local residents were absolutely buzzing today about the new crossing that Cllrs Gavin Edwards, Reggie Popoola, and Sandra Rhule have secured.

Great sunny morning out in Nunhead and Queen's Road.

Excited to speak at @southwarklabour.bsky.social conference in Camberwell on Sat 15th March - alongside an excellent array of others. Great chance to help shape our manifesto for 2026 and beyond.

At the highest point in Western Europe at The View from the Shard last night, to celebrate social and sustainable businesses in London Bridge with @teamlondonbridge.bsky.social.

Great to to hear about the positive work of so many organisations in our ward.

Great to welcome the French Embassy to our Emmaus Greenwich community yesterday.

An opportunity show how the Emmaus model of supporting people who have experienced homelessness works in practice, discuss our campaigns priorities, and compare progress in the UK and France.

Pavement widening in progress on Bermondsey Street.

Part of the ongoing improvements to make the street better for walking, cycling, and enjoying the bars and restaurants.

More to follow later this year!

Great to be out yesterday around Leathermarket Court and Weston Street, getting residents behind our campaign to save the London Bridge Post Office, and help with different local issues.

I was back at Southwark's Overview & Scrutiny Committee last night for an update on investigations into major works failings at Devon Mansions.

I urged that inquiries are completed swiftly to give residents answers on the high costs, poor-quality of some works, and lessons learned.
