Growth Plan

The Lambeth Growth Plan: People, Place, Purpose, is a shared blueprint for delivering inclusive, sustainable growth across the borough over the next 10 years. It sets out how we’ll secure genuinely affordable homes, thriving town centres, good local jobs, investments in sustainable transport, green spaces and opportunity for local communities.

The plan is based on four connected missions, each backed up with a series of actions for the next year and the next decade:

  • Commercial destinations, town centres and infrastructure – ensuring Lambeth is home to world class business destinations and thriving town centres.
  • Growth sectors – stimulating investment in the creative industries, health and life sciences, and clean tech, to generate 20,000 more jobs and a more accessible, innovative and modern economy.
  • Inclusive talent – investing in education and skills for 20,000 residents facing disadvantages, supporting people into work, and halving the number of people without a qualification.
  • Housing and neighbourhoods – enabling 10,000 new homes, as many affordable as possible, creating high quality, healthy and sustainable neighbourhoods for local communities
