    About our Lambeth news

    Latest news on Lambeth, from Brixton, Clapham, Vauxhall and Streatham to Kennington, Waterloo, Stockwell, Oval and across South London's diverse communities.

    Spanning from the Thames to the Crystal Palace ridge, Lambeth is one of London's largest and most diverse boroughs, home to over 320,000 residents across vibrant neighbourhoods including Herne Hill, Tulse Hill, West Dulwich, West Norwood, Gipsy Hill, and Loughborough Junction. The borough encompasses major landmarks including the London Eye, the Southbank Centre, and the bustling markets of Brixton, while facing significant challenges in housing, social equality, and urban development.

    Current priorities for Lambeth Council include addressing the housing crisis through its ambitious home-building programme, implementing low-traffic neighbourhoods, and managing regeneration projects across areas like Waterloo, Vauxhall, and Brixton. The borough continues to balance development pressures with community needs, particularly regarding affordable housing in rapidly changing areas like Clapham and concerns about gentrification in traditionally working-class neighbourhoods.

    Lambeth's cultural scene thrives through institutions like the Old Vic Theatre and BFI Southbank, complemented by local gems such as the Portico Gallery in West Norwood and the vibrant streets of Brixton. Community initiatives flourish across the borough, from the Herne Hill Velodrome to Crystal Palace's thriving arts scene. Regular events like the Lambeth Country Show in Brockwell Park and Stockwell Festival bring together thousands of residents from all communities.

    The area's rich history spans from its rural origins through Victorian development to modern times. The arrival of Caribbean immigrants on the Empire Windrush in 1948, many settling in Brixton, profoundly shaped the borough's character. This heritage is visible today in architectural landmarks across all neighbourhoods, from the Georgian terraces of Kennington and Oval to the Victorian splendour of West Norwood Cemetery, and the distinctive character of areas like Gipsy Hill and Loughborough Junction.

    Our NewsNow feed on Lambeth delivers essential updates on local government decisions, community developments, and cultural events across all areas of this dynamic borough. Whether you're in Tulse Hill or Vauxhall, Streatham or West Dulwich, stay informed about the latest news shaping these vital South London communities, from council initiatives to neighbourhood celebrations and everything in between.
