Lewisham Council will also see a Mayor elected with residents casting their vote in both the mayoral and ward elections
Lewisham Council has published a full list of the candidates standing in the upcoming local elections which take place on May 7. Across the 19 wards in Lewisham, a total of 265 candidates are hoping to win one of the 54 seats available.
Labour and the Conservatives each have 54 candidates, meaning there is a person contesting every seat in the borough. The Green Party has 53 nominees while the Liberal Democrats have 52 candidates.
Reform UK has 35 candidates, while there are five Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition candidates. There are three independents and three Your Party candidates who are also contesting seats.
The Christian Peoples Alliance, the Climate Party, the Motoring Party and the Communist Party of Britain all have one candidate each standing for election. The Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) understands that two candidates, Kim Allenby and Raymond Allenby, did not complete all of the nomination papers so it is not known which party they are standing for.
Each Lewisham Council ward has either two or three seats up for grabs, which is why parties may have multiple candidates standing for election in the same area. The LDRS has compiled a list of all of the candidates contesting seats at next month’s elections in Lewisham, broken down into individual wards.
