What do we stand for?

Local Economy

The Lewisham Local scheme has as its fundamental core a great interest for local businesses. By creating a network of independent businesses, we advocate for local spending, thus strengthening our economy and increasing job availability.

Community Organisations

Although before only volunteers were eligible for the card, we are now expanding our definitions of what it means to support the community. Give time, skills, or money to the community and see your contributions flourish through local good projects.

Exclusive Benefits

As a thank you for the time and/or donations you give to local causes, independent businesses have partnered with us to offer you unlimited discounts in their products and services. Browse our list and find up to 50% off at your local shops!

Living a Local Lockdown

Living locally has never been as important as in the current landscape, when unprecedented circumstances leave many independent businesses struggling to survive. Redirect your spending power for the good of the community and support your favourite shops this lockdown!

Lewisham Local aims to point socially conscious consumers to some wonderful businesses to support.

Why and how does the Lewisham Local Card support local businesses?

Local businesses provide an alternative to harmful multinationals. A buzzing high street full of originality and diversity is where we want to get our daily products and services. By shopping locally, we are bettering our Borough, the environment, and what we consume!

How does the Lewisham Local Card help individuals support local community projects?

The Lewisham Local scheme started as a way to reward volunteers in the Borough for the great work they do for the community. We now introduce a paid-for card which is not exclusive to volunteers but nonetheless sticks to the spirit of community development, where all profits go to local charities and good causes. Moreover, cardholders get to vote on what local causes will receive funding!
