On Sunday 24 June I joined faith leaders, councillors and over 200 residents from across the borough for the Lewisham Interfaith Walk for Peace.

The annual event is organised by Lewisham Interfaith Forum in partnership with Lewisham Metroplitan Police and Lewisham Council.

This event is a powerful demonstration of the strength of community cohesion in our vibrant area and I was delighted to participate for the fourth year running.  In Lewisham East Our diversity is our strength.

The walk began at the Sivan Temple in Lewisham, stopping off at various points including the Lewisham Salvation Army, Lewisham Islamic Centre (where the walkers paused for tea), the Civic Suite and ending at the Catford Synagogue.
