Social Action Projects

This campaign was born out of the work of our Stronger Together group to campaign for those living in Temporary Accommodation to be treated fairly and with dignity. 

In this project we've been using Forum Theatre to talk about issues migrants face in accessing healthcare services,  taking performances to key stakeholders to start a dialogue for change in policy and practice.

This group have been meeting since June 2020, guided by Citizens UK and the principles of Community Organising, to explore issues that affect our communities, particularly around housing and the immigration system. 

This project builds on the work of Stronger Together and Creating Ground, as well as our work with Citizens UK, to recognise our Leaders as policy makers whose voices should be heard in policy making. 

As part of the national City of Sanctuary movement, we are working with our local allies to make Lewisham and Greenwich Boroughs of Sanctuary, particularly focusing on migrants' housing and healthcare. 

The Wellbeing Action Team established itself following the South London Listens campaign in Spring 2021.  Our main focus is to improve the links between the community and mental health services.
