More support for survivors.
Too often, victims and survivors are trapped in abusive situations because of debt and financial dependence.
Today Iโm committing an additional ยฃ9m to help survivors across London access vital services, build skills and get the jobs they need to secure their futures.

The future of Oxford Street starts here ๐บ๏ธ
By the end of summer, the heart of the West End (Orchard St to Great Portland St) becomes a traffic-free zone. No vehicles, no pedicabs, just a world-class destination for Londoners.
Take a look at the first phase of the transformation:
Revitalising Oxford Street wonโt just create a world-class destination - it will also super-charge regeneration, boosting growth and jobs.
This is a win for the nationโs high street.

But we still have much more work to do to ensure women and girls feel safe and are safe in our city - wherever they are, whatever time of day or night. I am determined to do everything in my power to help end violence against women and girls as we continue to build a safer London for everyone.
In London, we are targeting the worst perpetrators of violence against women and girls, doubling down on standards within the Met and working to tackle toxic misogyny in our society.
My thoughts today are with the family, loved ones and all those impacted by Sarah Everardโs murder five years ago.
Sarahโs murder by a serving police officer shocked and horrified the entire country and rightly sparked an outcry about the national epidemic of violence against women and girls.

I was delighted to join with a wide range of Londoners for the annual British Asian Trust Iftar.
By raising funding and awareness for mental health programmes, the iftar is a wonderful example of how Muslims join together and give generously to help others throughout Ramadan.
