Read Shane's manifesto:
If I was elected as Young Mayor, there are three ideas I would like to work on within our community:
Programs that educate young individuals in our community on how to start their own businesses and create job opportunities within their own personal interests and ideas. The benefits of this are that it will allow young people to gain valuable skills outside of a classroom that they can use in the real world to aid their personal growth and development.
My second goal is to create an environment where young individuals, as well as the community, can express their faith and religion and gain awareness about other religion’s boundaries, tolerances and traditions, which can help bring a sense of unity without violence and conflict brought about by religious differences.
Last but not least, my third goal is to improve the development of parks. Many residents, as well as young individuals, want to experience the parks they used to enjoy but cannot because of the poor treatment these parks have been left in. I will do this so that people are able to relive the moments they once had but in a safer, comfortable community they can enjoy.
This is my campaign statement and thank you for listening.
I want to be your symbol of change. Vote for me to make Lewisham a better place.
- Shane Grant, Lewisham Young Mayor 2025-26
