South London Citizens
Who are we?
South London Citizens is the second oldest Citizens UK Chapter (after TELCO), and is formed of eight local alliances (Croydon, Greenwich, Lambeth, Lewisham, Merton, Peckham, Southwark, Wandsworth) building power for the common good south of the Thames. We believe in the ability of everyday people to come together and create meaningful change in their communities and beyond.
We are an alliance of 100+ organisations, including schools, universities, churches, mosques, synagogues, migrant groups, charities, GP surgeries, and other community organisations.
Together, we organise to tackle injustice in our local communities.
We are currently campaigning on affordable housing, youth safety, migrant rights, mental health, parenting, the climate crisis and ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) provision.
