Zoë Garbett will be joining the London Assembly today, after Siân Berry stepped aside for the councillor in Hackney and recent Mayoral candidate.
Zoë, who previously worked in the National Health Service (NHS), will join colleagues Zack Polanski AM and Caroline Russell AM for the new Assembly term.
Following the announcement, Zoë said:
“I am excited to join the Assembly and get to work for Londoners. There is so much to do improve the quality of our lives in London, stand up for people on the margins and hold the Mayor to account.”
Siân Berry, who previously served on the Assembly from 2016, remarked:
“Zoe has shown how much of a difference she will make in City Hall, listening to Londoners and bringing their voices into the political debate. That’s why she needs to be in this job as soon as possible. She is already brilliant councillor and will be a brilliant Assembly Member for Londoners.”
