Lewis Garland
Green Party candidate for Ealing Common
I have extensive experience in the community and charity sector, with a passion for building more welcoming and supportive communities. I lead a charity that helps refugees rebuild their lives through nature-based and cultural activities. I also work for a crisis support charity, supporting victims of domestic abuse and sexual violence. I believe decisions should be made at the community level, wherever possible. Local people are best placed to understand community needs, and should be given the power to shape their own future.
