Welcome to the Southwark Liberal Democrat website. Here you can find out about my work as leader of Southwark Council, your Liberal Democrat Council group and our local campaigners. You can check up on news from the group, sign up to our campaign petitions, and find out how to get in touch with your local Focus Team.

The Liberal Democrats run Southwark Council. Our commitment to improving our area can be found in our manifesto 'It's About You', which you can see by clicking on the image on the right. But we don't just sit in the Town Hall. Southwark Lib Dems pride ourselves on being out on the streets, campaigning for improvements to our area.

I hope that the site gives you a useful insight into our work.
