Siama Qadar's Letter To Lewisham Residents
Dear Lewisham Residents,
I am deeply honoured to seek your trust and support in my candidacy for Mayor of Lewisham. Born in Lewisham Hospital and raised in Deptford by hardworking immigrant parents, my life has been intrinsically woven into the very fabric of our vibrant community.
My educational journey within Lewisham, attending Grinling Gibbons Primary School, Catford Girls’ School and Haberdashers’ Aske’s Hatcham College for my Sixth Form years, has instilled in me a profound appreciation for the resilience that defines our borough.
This path, enriched further by my subsequent university studies in London and venture into financial services, has equipped me with a unique blend of experiences and perspectives, driving my commitment to serve and uplift every corner of our borough.
As an international author and the founder of a sustainable fashion start-up, I have learned to harness creativity and innovation for the benefit of our community.
I pledge a full-term Mayoral commitment, contrasting with the previous Labour leadership. My dedication to Lewisham is unwavering and I am here to serve the entire community with integrity and transparency.
Together, we can transform challenges into opportunities - creating safer streets, more affordable homes and a greener borough with improved transport connectivity, without penalising drivers.
Join me in this journey: vote for Siama Qadar for Mayor and let’s embark on a path toward a brighter future for all of Lewisham.
Sincerely,
Siama
