Tonight Croydon came together to celebrate the life of Eliann Andam at a candlelit vigil held in her honour.💔 Tributes from family and close friends told a story of a vibrant, loving, ambitious young woman. My thoughts are with Dorcas & Michael.❤️

Through Black Boys Can Cry, we hope to encourage open conversations between Black boys and men across the country - but also among wider society, with suicide being the biggest killer in men under 50, writes Alex Beresford itv.com/news/2023-10-0…

'Its a stereotype that they have that every black person smokes.' Two Metropolitan Police officers have been sacked after being found guilty of gross misconduct over the stop and search of two black athletes. Olympian Ricardo dos Santos and Team GB's Bianca Williams were

Croydon will lay another child to rest this morning. A life horrifically taken way too early. I ask that if you find a few minutes today to pray for strength & support for Elianns friends, but specifically her family who endure the greatest loss, that of a child.💔

I really enjoyed the training on the 2021 DA/VAWG ACT today with Rights of Women. Tiny #forandby organisations like mine need the support of legal professionals when advocating on behalf of WOC in the community.

"He represented the heart and consciousness of Black Britain in a way that few ever have. He was the “people’s laureate”; a voice for the community that was so clear and unapologetic it always cut through" my tribute to Benjamin Zephaniah 🙏🏿 The Independent independent.co.uk/voices/benjami…

On my way to join Vanessa Feltz on the topic of #KnifeCrime for which there is no one solution. Every agency around a young person's life must play their part, Health, Education, Police, Community/Family & Housing etc...#CroydonModel

The safety of women and girls across the borough of Croydon has always been important. So many women have shared how unsafe they feel, and we're all reminded of the tragic loss of Elianne. Please, if you're a Croydon resident complete the consultation survey.

I co-chaired an intense community consultation yesterday CroydonVA with Scrutiny Officer colleague Rowenna Davis. Educating local men on the importance of creating male led peer learning on #VAWG Also, challenging cultural perspectives on the topic. #FreezeFightFlightFawn

I was CroydonVA yesterday for a conversation on violence against women & girls led by DMT Rowenna Davis to feed into March's scrutiny meeting Lots of powerful stories shared & pls don't forget to share your views online via link below getinvolved.croydon.gov.uk/vawg-strategy

What Frank Hester said is clearly racist. Don't pretend you care about MPs safety if you can't call out racism. You want to give millions to someone who hates "all Black women". Rishi Sunak hand back his donations and rescind his Government contracts immediately!

The silence is deafening. Nothing said by either local Labour or Conservative leaders calling out the vicious attack on Diane Abbott in a Borough that has majority Black, Asian & mixed populace. As a black woman with a public profile, the lack of allyship speaks volumes.

As a UNISON - UK's largest union member, I find this worrying. Is this true? If it is, the membership should be made aware. You can't be the UK largest Union and expect no one to notice. Croydon UNISON Branch

Two families are in my thoughts. The family of the young man viciously stabbed on the train. I hope he pulls through.❤️ His attacker, because even the vile belong to someone. Prayers for both as this tragedy plays out.

Let me leave this right here... #Truth
