Suzy Gillett
Green Party candidate for Faraday
Suzy has lived in Southwark for over twenty years and raised her family here. She loves our diverse neighbourhoods, home to old-timers and newcomers alike — that is Southwark's unique strength, worth celebrating and fighting for. She supports well-built and cared-for social housing that genuinely serves local residents. Safer streets for children. Cleaner pavements and vibrant green spaces. Opportunities for young people. She aims to be an effective and transparent communicator between council and residents — for a greener, better-run Southwark that delivers what people deserve and are paying for.
