Lewisham Council: A vibrant and diverse London borough
Overview
Overview
Lewisham is a vibrant and diverse London borough. Our communities speak more than 170 languages across homes, schools, and businesses. We have a strong record of welcoming people from around the world. We are also proud to be the UK’s first Borough of Sanctuary, recognised for supporting refugees and migrants.
We are working towards a fairer, greener, and healthier future for everyone in Lewisham. That means tackling climate change and protecting the borough for future generations. It also means improving health and wellbeing, so support is open to all. We are committed to local jobs too. We help residents build skills, find work, and grow their careers.
Lewisham has a strong community spirit. People come together in tough times and support each other. We want to build on that energy and create a future that residents can shape and be proud of.
