London’s Blue Plaques are iconic. But the London Assembly is running a campaign to point out they are deeply unrepresentative of our city and to seek nominations to put this right.

Thought about cycling but something or the other has stopped you? Lambeth Council has the scheme for you! Try before you bike could offer just the right solution: a number of bikes are available (from standard to folding to electric) and any necessary adaptations can be done if you have a disability or physical impairment.

Don’t let the many hills of our neighbourhood put you off.  You can always hop off and push your bike up hill. Cycling can be a great time saver, improve your health and be great fun.

Wrap up warm with lots of layers this season and get cycling.

Further to our previous story, the central London Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) starts on 8 April 2019.  

Veg Power is a national campaign to help inspire young people into new eating habits. Instead of fast food and fizzy drinks they’ll see TV advertising for vegetables, backed up with lessons in schools, veggie messages on social media, and events.

80% of children and 95% of teenagers don’t eat enough vegetables. Lambeth Council is part of the new alliance to change the way we all eat and combat childhood obesity.
