The Mayor of Southwark

About Councillor Sunny Lambe, his role as Mayor, and how to get in touch.

The Civic Office

A small civic team supports and advises the Mayor. The team also leads a programme of events and activities to strengthen the community. 

The civic office organises civic ceremonial events, including but not limited to:

  • the inauguration of the Mayor
  • the Southwark Civic Awards
  • Armed Forces Day
  • Remembrance Day
  • Holocaust Memorial Day
  • the Mayor’s annual Charity Ball

For the chance to run for the Mayoral charity in the upcoming London Marathon, register your interest with the Mayor's Office at mayoral.events@southwark.gov.uk 

The office also arranges ceremonies where the borough's highest honour, The Honorary Freedom of Southwark, is presented. It confers the title of Honorary Alderman on ex-councillors who have served at least two terms.
