All Lambeth BIDs Join Climate Partnership to Take Climate Action

We are thrilled to announce that all seven of Lambeth Council’s Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) have officially joined the Lambeth Climate Partnership, marking a significant milestone in the borough’s efforts to build a greener, more sustainable future.

The Lambeth Climate Partnership coordinates climate action across the borough by bringing together local government, businesses, community organisations, and residents. It aims to accelerate progress towards net-zero emissions, increase climate resilience, and ensure a transition that benefits all communities.

The membership of all seven BIDs – Brixton, South Bank, Vauxhall One, This is Clapham, Station to Station, InStreatham, and WeAreWaterloo – demonstrates a commitment from the borough’s key commercial hubs to Lambeth’s climate ambitions. Each BID is already running sustainability initiatives, including waste reduction schemes, green logistics, energy efficiency projects, and programmes to promote active travel among local businesses and residents.

This borough-wide collaboration will strengthen the sharing of ideas and resources between BIDs, amplify their impact, and ensure local business voices are central to shaping a cleaner, fairer Lambeth.

Cllr Rezina Chowdhury, Cabinet Member for Sustainable Lambeth and Clean Air, said:

  • We’re proud to welcome all seven of Lambeth’s Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) to the Lambeth Climate Partnership. This is a powerful statement of intent from our business community and a vital step towards our shared ambition of a sustainable and fairer borough.

    Our local BIDs are already leading the way on sustainability, from cutting emissions to promoting greener ways of working. By coming together through the Partnership, we can accelerate climate action, support local jobs and enterprise, and ensure no community is left behind in the transition to net zero.

The Lambeth Climate Partnership will now work with the BIDs to co-design next steps for borough-wide emissions reductions, in line with Lambeth’s Climate Action Plan, and continue to grow our Green Economy. Find out more about our strategy here: https://lambethnow.co.uk/growing-our-green-economy/
