Mass for Migrant Workers at Westminster Cathedral, followed by COF's Strangers into Citizens national event at Trafalgar Square

In the morning leading experts will present a compelling picture of how and why migrants send money home, what happens to their money and the impact on their lives here in the UK. The afternoon will be solutions-driven, and will include a visiting American speaker on developments underway in the USA to give migrants greater financial power. A schedule of the day is attached. Considerable time will be given to open discussion since we anticipate having community and faith leaders, academics, trade unionists, industry and NGO representatives who collectively bring a wealth of insight.

The event is co-organised by London Citizens (the largest independent alliance of faith and civil society organisations in the capital) and The City Centre (an academic unit in the Department of Geography at Queen Mary, University of London). Lunch will be provided thanks to generous support from UNISON.

Our aim with this workshop is to lay the ground for more just and effective provision of vital services to migrants. Your contribution would be highly valued and I hope very much you will be able to attend. To confirm a place please reply to Josephine Mukanjira at josephine.mukanjira@cof.org.uk

Open to people of all faiths and none.

Hammersmith Assembly Hall,
Kings Street, W6 9JU

At this West London Citizens Full Founding Assembly major political and business figures will be invited to respond to our agenda and proposals, and hopefully will publicly agree to implement changes we are seeking. From the time of this founding assembly members would pay full membership dues to belong to London Citizens.

On 1 May, 2006, London Citizens will launch a major new initiative to support immigrant workers in the London area. The Catholic Church in London, with a long history of defending and supporting workers throughout the world, has agreed to hold a Mass and interfaith rally calling for better conditions for immigrant workers at 10:00am in Westminster Cathedral. While the Mass, endorsed by the Cardinal, will be Catholic, all of London Citizens' members are invited to attend, regardless of faith.

The Mass will be followed by a large rally at 11:30am in front of the Cathedral, and will feature leaders from multiple faith traditions and trade unions. We will celebrate the important contributions of immigrants and workers and officially launch the London Worker's Association. Please save the date, and look out for more details on the website! For more information, or to get involved, contact David Gardner on 07726 857 658 or at david.gardner@londoncitizens.org.uk.

Acton Town Hall,
Winchester St, W3 6NE

Members will discuss proposals arising from the listening campaign, and then vote through a manageable programme of campaigns for West London Citizens - some very local and some more ambitious. Each member institution would have one vote, be able to propose issues, and would bring ideally ten delegates.

Having agreed an agenda, action teams will be set up for each of the campaigns. For example, these might be on the living wage, affordable housing, or safer streets.

Fairfield Hotel, 1 Lansdown Road, CR9 2BN - opposite to Jury's Inn, backing on to the Lunar/Apollo House estate. Click here for map.

This became a very exciting Celebration of our ãLiving Wageä to date successes, including the work with Mayor Livingstone and the London Olympic Committee, who have all committed to the £6.70 Living Wage for London Citizens.

10 years of dozens of different, small and some extensive actions and projects and very successful, lasting achievements were described in 10 lively and impressive presentations. They were given by high level speakers and those, who had been personally involved from diverse faith communities and the wide variety of London Citizens member organisations and partner associations in the U.S. The venue at the old Pura Foods Factory had been chosen as the historical location of one of the first successes of Telco East London Citizens by combining the voices of several local communities to induce the management of an unbearably smelly food processing operation to invest some £ 2 m into an environmentally friendly plant. Another link is now, that the developers who recently acquired this site for residential accommodation purposes are the same firm, which London Citizens had successfully induced to leave a car park site in Whitechapel some 8 years ago for an expansion of the East London Mosque. The audience represented the diversity of London 's communities by members from many faith groups, local trade unions, schools, universities and associations of nationals from several countries.

The meeting was scheduled to start at 9.30 and to relocate to Trafalgar Square at 12.00 ready for the announcement at 12.45.

Lord Coe and Ken Livingstone had invited LONDON CITIZENS member communities to attend their 'party' in Trafalgar Square at mid day on July 6th. This was timed to coincide with the announcement from Singapore by the IOC, on which city would have been chosen to host the 2012 Olympics. The announcement was made as expected at about 12.45 and was cheered by all of us and many other thousands of on lookers.

Delegations from London Citizens member communities had met in the Roman Catholic Church

The choice of London as host for the 2012 Olympics and Paraolympics turned out to be a historic occasion, also very particularly for London Citizens member communities. They had already in 2004 secured Ken Livingstone's formal promise of significant benefits and social justice for all, who will be working on the preparation and implementation of the Games. Press release

Many of our member communities who were involved in last Autumn's campaign, attended the event at Trafalgar Square on July 6th - where London was seen to be chosen ! We assembled in some strength at a meeting beforehand at Notre Dame French Church near Leicester Square and walked down to Trafalgar Square together under LONDON CITIZENS banners. LONDON CITIZENS members played a key part in shaping the London bid last Autumn. We have ensured that there are 'ethical guarantees' about living wage jobs, land for affordable housing, jobs training etc. built into the final document AND that a working relationship has been struck between LONDON CITIZENS and the Bid Team into the future. For those reasons the Strategy Team and Trustees agreed to back the bid and add our name to its list of supporters.

A conference for Londoners. London Citizens is encouraging its members to go along to the State of London debate organised by the Mayor of London . The event is free of charge. To register call 020 7983 4302.
