Dozens brave blizzards to enjoy community coffee morning

Despite the atrocious weather, dozens of local residents made it along to our community coffee morning today at St Anselm's Church Hall.

It was great chance for all three local councillors; Lorna, Mark and Steve; to catch up with some familiar and some new faces.

We were delighted to be joined by London Assembly Member Val Shawcross, who listened to residents' concerns about the Mayor of London's plans to close police stations and fire stations. Lots of people signed Lambeth's petition calling on the Mayor to restore 100 police officers to our borough.

Fire Risk Assessments published in full by Lambeth Living

Last year's appalling fire at Lakanal House in Southwark was a horrible reminder that keeping residents safe from fire has to be the top priority for any landlord.

Since the fire Lambeth Living has embarked on a full fire inspection of every block of flats they manage, starting with the tallest structures.

Each inspection report and action plan is being published on Lambeth Living's website.

Reports for ten blocks in Prince's ward are available to download here.

Pictured: Coverley and Haymans Point have been inspected and the report is available to download.
