Fantastic Taskforce meeting and celebration last night - packed event with community leaders, NHS and local authority partners.
We reflected, connected, and built new relationships - from listening to action, as we grow our movement to tackle deep rooted health inequalities.

On Monday, Fatiha from our Greenwich team spoke powerfully about her experience in temporary accommodation to Deputy Labour Leader @AngelaRayner.
We look forward to working with her and @mtpennycook if elected to improve the lives of families in TA, in Greenwich and nationwide.
"I'm Fatiha Benmerzouk @CreatingGround & @SLondonCitizens. My family & I have moved across London 4 times in 4 years. My daughter asks where next? 168,000 children in temporary housing ask the same. We need to prioritise better temporary accommodation for families with children."

"Never say no when hope is alive..."
Best foot forward for @CreatingGround!
We restarted our creative sessions thinking about our journeys: the journey of our life, the journey we took to come to the UK, the journey we are on every day & the journey we want to embark on: what it has been & what has helped us

Electric atmosphere at my third @citizens_london Mayoral Assembly. Timely reminder of the progress we've made together on community land trusts, free school meals, the London Living Wage and more. Unfortunate that my Tory opponent refused to attend to do the same.
