The first-ever BeLambeth Awards are set to take place at the iconic Kia Oval on Monday 30 September, bringing together over 150 people to recognise outstanding achievements in skills and employment across the borough. This exclusive, invite-only event will honour nine distinguished winners for their exceptional contributions to Lambeth’s community and economic growth.
Hosted by Lambeth’s very own Fayon Dixon, who has been a resident for nearly 20 years, the BeLambeth Awards promise an evening of celebration, inspiration, and connection among finalists, partners, and sponsors. Adding to the local flavour, The Boury Academy will showcase the talents of two local Lambeth singers, making the evening truly special.
Cllr Cameron, Cabinet member for economic inclusion, expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming ceremony: “The BeLambeth Awards are a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the talent, innovation, and hard work that keep our borough thriving. I’m excited to witness the announcement of our first-ever winners and to recognise the incredible contributions these individuals and businesses make to our community. This is about more than just awards – it’s about showcasing the skills and employment that make Lambeth a borough of opportunity.”
The event is run in partnership with Lambeth Council and is supported by some of Lambeth’s leading businesses, with sponsorship from Clapham Park, CLS Holdings, and King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. Additional supporters include APCOA PARKING UK, Bouygues UK, Breyer Group, NRT Group, The Skills Centre, and Willmott Dixon, all of whom are committed to advancing local talent and driving economic growth.
The BeLambeth Awards provide an opportunity to strengthen ties within the community and build momentum for even more positive change in the borough. For those interested in sponsorship opportunities, please contact Shelley scook@wlcreative.org.uk for more details.
