I had a wonderful time with South East London Community Energy & Flower & Dean Estate Paracarnival for the #MayorsCommunityWeekend. We celebrated what makes London strong – teamwork, talent, diversity, inclusivity. On a weekend when some came to promote hatred, these orgs promoted community & joy

This #ESEAHM2025, I had the pleasure of visiting the Philippine Theatre UK group. Through incredibly moving performances, they spoke about trafficking & exploitation but also joy & identity. A wonderful opportunity to celebrate ESEA community & heritage at the #MayorsCommunityWeekend

We want all young Londoners to feel safe, healthy and have the chance to succeed. Fantastic to see @london.gov.uk #HolidayHope programme launched today which will work with 100+ community groups and youth spaces to provide free skills & training alongside meals.
Great to visit Edinburgh Primary School today to launch Holiday Hope - a new £6m programme funding free activities and meals so more young Londoners can feel supported, safe and inspired this summer.

I’m pleased the government is backing London’s bid to host the 2029 World Athletics & Para Athletics Championships. London is the sporting capital of the world, where major events boost the economy and unite communities.

We’re ready to host even more world-class events.

Londoners of African heritage help make our city the best in the world. Soon I’ll be leading the first mayoral trade mission to Africa, visiting Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa—to deepen cultural ties, boost trade and bang the drum for London.

Great to kick things off at The Flygerians.

The benefits of nature should be for everyone.

My new Green Roots Fund will deliver spaces across our capital that are greener, healthier and more climate resilient. We celebrated its launch this week by giving away free wildflower seeds to Londoners ⬇️

The benefits of nature should be for everyone and I’m committed to making this a reality for all Londoners.

That’s why I’m encouraging all community groups to get involved and give nature a helping hand in their neighbourhood.

Temperatures have risen above 30°C today—an amber heat health alert has been issued for London.

It's important we look after ourselves, and after those who find it more difficult to cope with hot weather: older people, babies and infants, and those with a physical or mental health condition.

Honoured to open the Mayor's Pride Reception, celebrating the beauty, strength & diversity of LGBTQI+ Londoners.

We're always proud to stand as allies @london.gov.uk 🏳️‍🌈

It was an honour to host my Pride Reception celebrating London’s incredible LGBTQI+ community and their contribution to our capital.

As Mayor, I’ve always sought to maintain our city’s status as a beacon for LGBTQI+ rights.

Our message is clear: you are free to be yourself here.
