I have lived in Camden for 25 years, worked in Somers Town for 13 years and live in King's Cross. St Pancras and Somers Town has a proud radical history and a unique sense of community. However, over the years, I have seen local communities increasingly pushed aside by corporate developments, rising rents and a lack of affordable housing.

I have over 20 years of experience working with Camden Council, including nine years as an employee. In 2012, I established a Tenants' and Residents' Association, which I continue to chair. I have supported residents struggling with unresolved repairs, overcrowded housing and safety concerns on their estates.

I have also been a trade union representative for over 30 years and serve as secretary of Camden Trades Union Council. Standing up for working people, tenants and local communities has always been at the heart of what I do.

I joined the CPA because I believe local people deserve a genuine voice in the decisions that affect their lives. I care deeply about protecting our communities, defending tenants' rights, challenging inequality and ensuring that Camden remains a place where ordinary people can afford to live.

For me, it's about putting residents first, protecting our neighbourhoods and making sure that everyone in Camden is heard and represented.

Somers Town may not have much, but it gives so much through its people, resilience and strong sense of community.

I have lived in Somers Town since 2008, and I am proud to call it my home. This community has played an important role in shaping who I am. Growing up, youth services and community centres provided me with opportunities, support and a sense of belonging. Today, I want to give something back by creating those same opportunities for others.

I founded Your Bike Project to support the local community through cycling, bringing people together, developing skills and creating positive opportunities for young people and residents.

I joined the CPA because I believe our community deserves to be heard, valued and supported. I care deeply about tackling inequality, improving access to affordable housing and essential services, and protecting the community spaces that bring people together.

I am particularly passionate about supporting young people, elderly residents, vulnerable people and families facing hardship. I believe local representatives should be present, accessible and accountable to the people they serve.

For me, being part of the CPA is about standing up for our neighbours, strengthening our community and making sure that Somers Town is never overlooked or left behind.

As someone of Indian origin and Muslim heritage, my personal experiences have shaped my commitment to equality, justice and standing up for those whose voices are too often overlooked.

As a survivor of domestic violence, I understand the importance of having access to safe spaces, strong support networks and a community that stands together. Through my work supporting people experiencing homelessness, I have seen firsthand how inequality and a lack of social support can affect people's lives.

I am also an active member of the National Education Union (NEU) and believe strongly in the power of grassroots organising and collective action to bring about meaningful change.

I joined the CPA because I believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect and fairness, regardless of their background, religion or circumstances. I am passionate about challenging racism, Islamophobia and discrimination, standing up for Palestinian rights and advocating for stronger support systems for vulnerable and marginalised communities.

For me, being part of the CPA means helping to build a community where everyone feels safe, supported and heard, and where equality and social justice are at the heart of every decision.

I am a council tenant living on an estate in King's Cross, and my child attends a local primary school. As both a resident and a parent, I care deeply about the future of our community and the opportunities available to local families.

I work as a lecturer at a higher education college in north Camden and serve as a trade union representative in my workplace. Through these roles, I have developed a strong commitment to education, workers' rights and ensuring that everyone is treated fairly.

I am involved with the CPA because I believe local residents should have a stronger voice in the decisions that affect their lives and communities. My priorities include protecting affordable housing, supporting accessible and high-quality education, and advocating for fair pay and working conditions.

I believe in listening to local people, protecting the services our communities rely on and ensuring that tenants, families and working people have a meaningful say in Camden's future.

I am a lifelong trade unionist and have spent many years organising against low pay, inequality and unfair working conditions. I believe strongly in the power of collective action and solidarity to bring people together and create meaningful change.

As a committed anti-racist, I am proud to be one of the founders of Camden United Against Racism. Through my activism, I have worked to challenge racism and discrimination, bring communities together and stand up for those whose voices are too often overlooked.

I am involved with the CPA because I believe in peace, justice, socialism and a society built on equality and solidarity. I am passionate about defending workers' rights, tackling poverty, challenging discrimination and ensuring that everyone, regardless of their background, is treated with dignity and respect.

For me, grassroots organising is about bringing people together, strengthening our communities and building a fairer, more inclusive Camden where everyone has a voice and the opportunity to thrive.
