Meeting With The Mayor  of London Boris Johnson

London Mayor Boris Johnson championed the work that we are doing at Offley Works.

Today we had the opportunity to show Boris about the successes that we are achieving. He truly realised the intensity and difficulty of our work and he stated “You have really put Offley Works on the map”.

We showed the Mayor the longevity of our organisation, our staff qualifications, capacity and quality of our partnerships, pictures of some of our work, our impact in reducing crime and we also let him know that we are representing and leading for a number of organisations from Lambeth.

 The Mayor met with us at City Hall alongside 3 of the management team from the London Development Agency. The management from LDA obviously spoke about the vacating of Offley Works by May 1st so they can continue their planned development of flats, enterprise and community space.

 We aim to be a part of this development and options were put to Boris. Boris suggested to the LDA that they should help to relocate us so our work can continue. LDA said that they will contact Derek Anderson, the Chief Executive at Lambeth, to try and arrange an alternative location.

More meetings will be held to ensure that all the relevant parties can work together to make the transition uncomplicated for all.
