I have registered for an information stall and need to follow up by 4th November.

Invitation from Leader of the Council 

I am pleased to invite you to a special Community Cohesion Event in Lambeth, bringing together residents, community leaders, councillors and local organisations for an evening of connection, collaboration, and collective action.

We know hate crime is rising, hate speech is spreading on social media and our communities across Lambeth are feeling the impact.

In Lambeth, we stand united with all our communities in rejecting all forms of violence, terror and hate, including antisemitism and islamophobia. We are a proud Borough of Sanctuary and we celebrate the diversity that makes our wonderful borough so special.

Join us to stand united, proud and to celebrate our diverse communities, at the start of Inter Faith Week, on Monday 10 November, from 6.30pm to 8pm in the Assembly Hall in Lambeth Town Hall, Brixton, SW2 1RW. There will be short speeches, information stalls, networking time and refreshments.
