The letter from Cllr David Amos, Lambeth’s Cabinet lead for Finance and Cost of Living, highlights that new cuts would harm council efforts to protect its poorest households from the impacts of the Cost of Living Crisis.

Cllr Amos has set out a series of measures needed to protect vulnerable residents ahead of this winter, as well as support for the most under threat sectors of the local economy. To read these measures in full see the letter below:
