On Thursday, May 7th, 2026, the people of Lewisham will have the chance to vote for real, grassroots change.

While the central committee is formally establishing the national party structure, we are actively building power on the streets. We are incredibly proud to announce that three dedicated local residents are stepping up to run as independent candidates on the Lewisham Your Party platform.

Your Local Candidates:

• Davis St Marthe – Lewisham Central

• Dan Ansell – Lewisham Central

• Callum Carter – Rushey Green

For too long, the council has prioritized private profit over the needs of the community. Our candidates are running to change that. A vote for Davis, Dan, and Callum is a vote for our five core pillars:

1. Housing for People, Not Profit Fighting against gentrification and campaigning for radical housing justice. We demand better living conditions, higher housing standards, and social rent for all.

2. Protecting Our Children’s Future Securing better resources for our youth, including universal free school meals and comprehensive nursery provision for every family.

3. No Cuts, No Austerity Protecting our vital public services from being sold off for private profit. Our candidates will never vote for cuts or austerity measures that hurt our residents.

4. Anti-Racism and Equality Strengthening our ‘Sanctuary Borough’ status. We are staunchly anti-racist and anti-fascist, and we will fight for true equity and equality across every neighborhood.

5. Ethical Finances and Solidarity Standing in unwavering international solidarity with Palestine. We demand that Lewisham Council completely divest from military manufacturing and companies complicit in genocide. It is time for ethical, transparent local government.

Get Involved: Check out our official campaign flyer on the Campaigns page, share this announcement with your neighbors, and join us on the streets. Let’s get these grassroots candidates elected!

The wait is over. Today, we are proud to launch the official, volunteer-built digital home for the Lewisham branch of Your Party. As the national central committee formally establishes our party structure, we know that the real work doesn’t wait for bureaucracy. The fight for our community is happening right now, on the streets of Lewisham. We needed a dedicated hub to organize local campaigning, coordinate street action, and fight back against the gentrification pushing working people out of our borough. So, we built one ourselves.

Built for the People, by the People

This website is a reflection of our core political philosophy. It wasn’t built by an expensive corporate PR agency, and it isn’t running on bloated software that tracks your every move to sell to data brokers. Our digital infrastructure is 100% volunteer-coded, using a lightning-fast, zero-budget grassroots tech stack. We don’t use marketing cookies, we don’t track you across the internet, and we respect your privacy. Every ounce of energy here is focused on one thing: organising.

We are building a new kind of political party—one that actually belongs to us. We stand for homes for people, not profit, and we are ready to take that message to every doorstep in Lewisham SE6 and beyond. But a website is just a tool. The real power of this movement is you.
