Executive summary
Nearly a third of a million people live in Lambeth – at least 310,000. Lambeth is in south London, between
Wandsworth and Southwark, and has one of the largest geographic areas of any inner London borough. It
has several distinctive neighbourhoods including Waterloo, Brixton, Clapham, Streatham and Norwood, and
landmarks include Waterloo station, the London Eye, the South Bank arts complex, the Oval cricket ground
and Lambeth Palace, the residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Largely residential, it is one of the most densely populated places in the country, with over 100 people
living in each hectare, more than twice the London population density. It has a complex social and ethnic
mix, with large African and Portuguese populations, and is an important focus for the black Caribbean
population.
Lambeth has a relatively young age profile. Although it is a largely residential borough, it is a destination for
young working age people, rather than families.
The male and female populations have different age profiles. The young working age population is roughly
even between males and females. For all ages over 50, there are slightly more females than males. This
reflects national trends.
If t e ds o ti ue, La eth s populatio is p oje ted to g o

Although the UK populatio s olde populatio is p oje ted to i ease, this ill affe t La eth less tha
pla es hi h a e desti atio s fo olde people. La eth s population aged 60+ is projected to grow by a
quarter in the next 10 years, compared to a 10% growth across the whole population. There are substantial
differences between ethnic groups. For example, the black Caribbean 60+ population is projected to grow
by almost 40%. Similarly, the older black African population, which is currently small, is projected to nearly
double. The older white population, which is larger, is projected to grow by a tenth.
Although Lambeth is a largely residential borough with many long term residents, the proportion of people
moving in and out of the borough is high, similar to many places in inner London. Approximately 12% of the
population leave each year and are replaced by around 12% new arrivals. In other words, around 88% of
the population each year remains the same.
There are around 136,000 households in Lambeth. One family households make up almost half of
La eth s households. Lo e pa e ts ake up o e i te households. Al ost % of households do ot
have access to a car or van. If current trends continue, the number of households will rise by 30,000
between 2011 and 2031, mostly through a large rise in the number of single person households.
Around 65% of households live in rented accommodation, and a third own their own home. Just under one
in five households rent from the council, and around 16% rent from other social landlords. Just under one
in three households are privately rented.
In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in concern about lack of affordable housing.
Over 70% of households in Lambeth live in flats, either purpose built or converted houses. Just over 10% of
households live in detached or semi-detached houses.
A ou d % of La eth populatio is hite ith a UK a kg ou d. White people ake up 59% of the
population. Around 40% of Lambeth residents are White British or Irish, in line with inner London (43%).
15% of the population are from other White backgrounds – around 47,000 people. About two thirds of
these people are from Europe outside the UK & Ireland,8% are from central and south America, 4% from
north America and the Caribbean, and 8% from Australasia.

compared to many places in London. Only 7.8% of Lambeth residents are from Asian backgrounds
(including Chinese), much less than the inner London average (14.5%).

Recent estimates suggest that Lambeth has one of the largest LGB populations in London.
About 37,000 people in Lambeth have their day-to-day activities limited by a long term illness or disability.
About 60% of people with a limiting health condition are aged over 50.
Like many London boroughs, Lambeth has areas of affluence and areas of poverty, often side by side. There
is a persistent pool of economically inactive people with little economic and social mobility and this group
tends to experience high levels of social exclusion and poor education, employment and health outcomes.
The latest deprivation data is from 2010, which ranks Lambeth as the 8th most deprived borough in London
and 14th most deprived in England. Those living in the most deprived areas are spread throughout the
borough but are particularly concentrated in Coldharbour ward. The most affluent areas include the
Thames-side part of Bishops ward, Crescent Lane and Elms Crescent in Clapham and the Dulwich border
area of Thurlow Park. The deprivation data is scheduled to be updated in 2015.
One in three children attending Lambeth schools is eligible for free school meals (31% for primary and 31%
for secondary). This is comparable with inner London but higher than nationally. Around a third of children
in Lambeth are estimated to live in poverty.
Lambeth health issues reflect it being an inner-city urban area with a young population profile and a mix of
deprivation and affluence. Over 85% of people in Lambeth say they are in good or very good health. There
are around 14,000 people who feel they are in bad or very bad health, just under 5% of the population.
Particular health problems prevalent in Lambeth include relatively high infant mortality, teenage
conceptions and sexually transmitted infections – although all of these measures have improved over
recent years. While life expectancy in the borough remains below the England average, it has improved and
is in line with similar urban, deprived areas.
Lambeth has a high crime rate and crime has been a long term consistent concern for residents, although
crime and concern about crime has reduced drastically over the period of some years.
From a socio-e o o i poi t of ie , La eth s populatio is t pi al of Lo do o oughs. O e
% of
Lambeth residents are educated to degree level. Around 14% of residents have no qualifications, which is
about average for London.
2.4% of working age residents are long-term unemployed, which is one of the highest in London.
The average household income in 2011-12 in Lambeth was just under £45,000, and the median £36,000.
The median income is similar to much of London.
La eth s e plo e t ase p i a ily consists of service sector employment. Lambeth has a very strong
dependence on health sector employment, which employs almost 28,000 people and accounts for 21% of
total employment in Lambeth – twice the London average. Much of this employment is likely to be linked
to the t o ajo Lo do hospitals lo ated i the o ough St Tho as a d Ki gs . E plo e t i this
sector also accounts for 27% of all Knowledge Intensive Industries employment in the Borough. The
borough has excellent transport links to the rest of the London economy.
Lambeth has a higher proportion of employment in the Public Administration and Art, Entertainment &
Recreation sectors (which includes a significant component of public sector employment) than the London
average, which suggests that La eth s e plo e t ase is o e depe de t o the pu li se to .
Business Administration and Support Services (which includes rental and leasing activities, employment
agencies, and office administration and support activities) is also an important sector for Lambeth, but has
declined in recent years however this may improve as the economic recovery becomes more robust. Other
strongly represented and growing sectors include Information and Communications and the Food
Accommodation Sector.

London Borough of Lambeth
Nearly a third of a million people live in Lambeth in central south London. Situated between
Wandsworth and Southwark, it has one of the largest geographic areas of any inner London
borough. It reaches from the south bank of the Thames to the Surrey Hills, following the A23 London
to Sussex road1. The northern tip of the borough, including Waterloo, is similar in character to
central London, and the inner urban areas of Brixton, Clapham, Herne Hill, Kennington, Stockwell
and Vauxhall make up the central part of the borough. South of the South Circular Road are the less
built up suburbs of Norwood and Streatham. Landmarks in the borough include Waterloo station,
the London Eye, the South Bank arts complex, the Oval cricket ground and Lambeth Palace, the
residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury.
The name Lambeth originally referred to a small area on the south bank of the Thames, close to
he e St Tho as Hospital is toda . Most places now in Lambeth were separate settlements, many
mentioned in the 1087 Doomsday book: Streatham's first parish church, St Leonard's, dates back
to Saxon times, and in 18th century, the village's natural springs, known as Streatham Wells, were
first celebrated for their health-giving properties; Norwood is named after the Great North Wood
that at one time reached from Croydon to Camberwell. For around two hundred years, Vauxhall
was the site of the Pleasure Gardens, where all sections of society enjoyed music, theatre, dining
and socialising; in the early 19th century, the campaigners based in Holy Trinity church in Clapham
played an important part in the outlawing and abolition of slavery the British Empire.
The expansion of the railways and house building in the late 19th century replaced the rural
countryside with suburbs2. Electric Avenue in Brixton was the first market street in Britain to be lit by
electric light in the 1880s. Lambeth was established as an administrative area in 1900 as the
Metropolitan Borough of Lambeth3.
Over the last 100 years, Lambeth has changed from a group of Victorian commuter suburbs to
become one of the most cosmopolitan districts in the country4. Just before the Second World War,
the e as a da e aze “The La eth Walk", hi h efe ed to La eth Walk, then a working class
area notable for its street market5. By the 1950s, Streatham Hill was the longest and busiest
shopping street in south London. The post-war period saw a large influx of immigrants from the
West Indies, starting in 1948 with the SS Empire Windrush from Jamaica. Since then, Lambeth –
Brixton especially - has been an important focus for the black Caribbean population6. Vauxhall,
Stockwell and Brixton Victoria line underground stations were opened in 1972, improving the
o ough s t a spo t li ks to the est of Lo do .
The socio-economic profile of the area is mixed, with areas of affluence and deprivation in close
proximity. The borough is the 14th most deprived district in England7, comparable with Southwark
and Lewisham, but less deprived than the most deprived London boroughs of Newham, Tower
Hamlets and Hackney. Many of the deprived areas include large proportions of social housing.

There are two Roman roads in the borough, the A3 Clapham Road and the A23 Brixton Hill/Road, and three ancient medieval lanes -Acre
Lane, Loughborough Road and Coldharbour Lane.The five 'A' roads that join in Brixton, the centre of the borough, are Brixton Road (A23)
north to central London, Acre Lane (A2217) to Clapham, Brixton Hill (A23) south-west to Streatham, Effra Road (A204) south to Tulse Hill
and Coldharbour Lane (A2217) east to Camberwell.

Lambeth has a complex ethnic and cultural mix, most similar to Southwark and Lewisham8, with
large African, Latin American and Portuguese-speaking populations9. It is a destination for many
migrants, especially the young, from around Britain and abroad - in particular Poland and other EU
countries as well as Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

What has changed recently?
Economy
The UK economy continues to recover. As at July 2014, the UK Gross Domestic Product is
approaching the levels prior to the 2007-8 global economic recession, which included the mid 2000s
sub-prime-driven slump in US house prices, the 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers, the 2007
nationalisation of Northern Rock and the bailouts of Greece, Ireland, Spain and Portugal.
Bet ee
to
Lo do s e o o 10 grew by 15.4%, compared with 6.9% for the rest of the
UK. Lambeth is well placed to take advantage of this growth in the economy: in the last five years,
the trend in employment has been up in Lambeth, from around 69% of working age residents in
2008-9 to 78% in 2014.
Employment
Brixton Village is a highly visible sign of the entrpreneurship and opportunity in the borough. It is not
yet clear how employment in Lambeth has changed in the last few years: for example, number of
working poor relying on housing benefit to boost their income has doubled nationally in five years.
Pressure on the public sector, which is a significant employer in the borough, can be expected to
affect the pattern of employment in the borough, as can casualisation, jobs replaced by technology,
the decline of high streets, a living wage for London and global competition for professional jobs.
Housing
House prices continue to rise. In 2001, the average house price in London was £172,000. In 2014, the
average house price is £439,000, and the ratio of London house prices to median earnings has risen
from 5.6 in 2000 to 9.1 in 2013. In Lambeth, the ratio has risen from 6.4 to 9.7 over the same period.
It is not clear on how this process will resolve. It does not appear to be driven by financial
speculation – there is a shortage of appropriate housing, and demand for accomodation is real.
However, many and young people and first time buyers are priced out of home ownership, which
will eventually affect the market. There is no consensus on the best way to address this; suggested
approaches include building on Green Belt land around London; changing to european style of longterm renting; increasing housing density, for example in high-rise accomodation; fiscal measures
such as first-time buyer tax incentives and taxes on empty or second properties; pressure on
developers to build on land they already own; building more affordable housing; and encourages
older people to move from large under-used houses to specialist smaller housing.
It does seem reasonable that housing affordablilty will affect the make up of La eth s populatio .
The borough has a reputation as a place where new migrants can get established economically and
socially, before moving to other places. However, currently, a two-bedroom flat in Brixton can cost
half a million pounds. If there is no housing new migrants can afford, affluent professionals may well
e ake up a la ge p opo tio of La eth s populatio .
Demographic change
O e half of La eth s populatio is of o ki g age oughl , et ee

. This age profile
did not change significantly between 2001 and 2011 censuses. The mean age and median age both
remained the same, at 33 and 31 respectively. The largest change is in the 45-59 age range, which
increased by 3% from 13% to 16% of the population, an increase of 13,700 people.

Nominal Gross Value Added (GVA)

There are around 130,000 households. Almost a third of them are single, working-age person
households, and 7% are single pensionable age person households. 10% are lone parents with
dependent children, and a further 4% are lone parents with all children non-dependents.
15% of households are working age people sharing accommodation (i.e. not living as a family). 10%
are couple family households with dependent children, and 14% are married or cohabiting couples
with no children. These categories account for over 90% of Lambeth households.
The largest changes between 2001 and 2011 are an increase in working age people sharing
accommodation (up by 2.5%) and decreases in single pensioner households (down by 3%) and all
pensioner family households (down by 1%). These last two equate to a decrease of 3,600 pensioner
households.

such as location and availability of suitable housing. If house prices in the borough continue to rise,
the older population can be expected to continue to reduce.

Crime
Although crime remains residents most pressing concern, it has been reducing for several years.
There was an 8.8% decrease in priority crimes in the 12 months to July 2014, similar to most of
London.

Other residents were born in Europe, including 29% from EU accession countries; 11% from Australia and NZ; 10% from
Central and South America; 5% from North America and the Caribbean. Black Other and White Other are both catch-all
categories, and it is sometimes unclear what respondents intended by using this self-reported category. For example, some
black persons from the United States may not classify themselves as either Black Caribbean or Black African, although
some would. The proportion of people identifying themselves as Black British is a significant part of the Black Other
category, and this increased between the 2001 and 2011 census.

Population
Officially, there are 310,000 people living in Lambeth. There are around 8.3 million people resident
in London, and around 4% of them live in Lambeth. The latest population estimates from the Office
for National Statistics (ONS) give Lambeth one of the largest populations in inner London, similar to
Wandsworth and Southwark, and the eighth largest borough population in London as a whole.
Lambeth is one of the most densely populated places in the country. There are eight boroughs with
more than 100 residents per hectare – all in inner London. Lambeth is the fifth most densely
populated borough in the country, with 113 residents per hectare.
Lambeth has a relatively young age profile. The median age is 31, which is the fourth youngest in
London and the mean age is 33.7, which is fifth youngest in London. Although it is a largely
residential borough, it is a destination for young working age people, rather than families. This is
similar to Westminster and Wandsworth.
9
Children and young people: About a fifth – 21% - of La eth s populatio is aged 20 or under,
around 66,000 people. Compared to other London boroughs, there is a low percentage of people
ages 15 to 19 (4.6%)
Young working age: Over half of the population, 51%, is aged between 20 and 44, around 157,000
people. About two-thirds of young working age people are over 30. Lambeth is in the top ten London
boroughs for people aged 20 to 24 (8.8%), and the top five for people aged 25 to 29 (14.2%) and 30
to 44 (28.8%).
Older working age: Less than a fifth of the population, 18%, is aged between 45 and 64, around
57,000 people. Nearly four fifths of older working age people are under 60. Only 3% are aged 60 to
64, which is in the bottom five boroughs in London.
Older people: Less than a tenth, 7.6%, of the population is aged 65 or over, 23,000 people. About
half of older people are aged 65-74. Lambeth is in the bottom five boroughs in London in all older
age categories: 65 to 74 (4.2%), 75 to 84 (2.5%), 85 to 89 (0.6%) and 90 and over (0.3%).

and 350,000 in 2024. It is projected to grow by just over 1% per year for the next five years, and by
1% or just under in the five years after that. The borough will continue to have a majority of young
working age people (20-44). There is projected to be a decrease in people aged 15-29, and an
increase in the proportion of people aged 55-64.
10
Population change
Lambeth is a largely residential borough with many long term residents – around that 80% of
La eth s populatio has ee eside t fo o e t o ea s, a d % o e fi e ea s12. However,
total population change – that is, the proportion of people moving in and out of the borough – is
high, similar to many places in inner London, at around 22-24% for the last few years; this means
that approximately 12% of the population leave each year and are replaced by around 12% new
arrivals. In other words, around 88% of the population each year remains the same.
The latest data on population change is from 2011-12 (ONS Mid-Year Estimate 2012). 37,400 moved
into the borough, and 35,500 moved out (12.3% and 11.7% of 2011 population respectively). In
total, 24% of the population moved in or out of the borough in 2011-12. Most migration is internal
with 80% of in-migration and 87% of out migration to other parts of UK13.
High population turnover is not a bad thing, nor is it always caused by movement of transient, heavy
users of public services. As well as short term international visitors, there are also many young,
qualified migrants who work for a short time before returning home (who are often in the UK on two
year working holiday visas). For example, one in six of all National Insurance numbers allocated to
non-UK residents in Lambeth between 2002 and 2010 was to someone from Australia, New Zealand
or South Africa, and a further one in seven was from Poland.
Using Non-UK National Insurance registrations as an indicator, working age international migrants
are more likely to move to Stockwell and North Lambeth, and least likely to move to Norwood.
Changes in international migration and pressures on housing will probably continue to change
La eth s eth i i . Lo do s ha ge to a ulti ultu al so iet i the id-20th century was based
in B itai s imperial past, and most migrants came from the new Commonwealth. Since the 1980s,
however, the drivers of international migration have been EU expansion and integration, people
displaced by conflict and perceived economic opportunities available in UK. As a result, Lambeth has
significant Portuguese, Polish and Somali populations. There is a relatively small south Asian
population, and the Black Caribbean community is reducing as a proportion of the population. The
borough has been seen in recent decades as a place where poorer people can get established before
moving on- in this way Lambeth is ofte efe ed to as a es alato o ough . Pressures on housing
and some of the largest house price increases in the country in recent months mean that Lambeth
may become less feasible as a destination for new international migrants.

as Southwark and Lewisham. 4.1% of households have dependent children, but are not family
households.
Vehicles
Almost 60% of households do not have access to a car or van.
Projected household growrth
The number of households is projected to rise by 30,000 between 2011 and 2031, a 17% increase,
mostly through a large rise in the number of single person households. There is projected to be a
reduction in couple households and the proportion of sole parents is expected to stay stable.
Growth is projected to be around 1.3% per year currently, although slowing to 0.7% in ten years and
0.6% in the ten years after that.
Accommodation
Over 70% of households in Lambeth live in flats, either purpose built or converted houses. Just over
10% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses.
Household tenure
Around 65% of households live in rented accommodation, and 33% (43,000 households) own their
own home. Just under one in five households (25,000) rent from the council, and around 16%
(20,000) rent from other social landlords. Just under one in three households (38,000) are privately
rented.
12
In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in concern about lack of affordable housing,
a d it is eside ts se o d top concern after crime14. A quarter of respondents (25%) feel that
affordable housing is a worry. A tenth of residents (10%) are concerned about the number of
homeless people.
Residents by equality characteristics
La eth s di e sit is o e of its defining characteristics, and these social and economic differences
affect the life chances and opportunities of people within and between different groups.
Age
Similar to other inner London boroughs, Lambeth has a young age profile but it is worth noting that
this is because there are many working age people, rather than large numbers of children and
teenagers (0-19 year olds represent 21% of the population and 51% of residents are aged 20-44
years). This large working age group is likely because Lambeth is a destination for many young
working age migrants from UK and abroad.
La eth s olde populatio aged + is p oje ted to g o
27% in the next 10 years (2014-24),

compared to an 11% growth across the whole population . However, there are substantial
differences between ethnic groups. For example, whilst the 60+ population is projected to grow by
27% overall, the black Caribbean 60+ population is projected to grow by 38%, from around 5,000 to
6,700. This is compared to an all-age decrease in the black Caribbean population of 4.6%, from
28,600 to 27,000. Ho e e , the u e of people ide tif i g the sel es as Bla k B itish is
increasing.
Similarly, the black African population is projected to grow by 10.9% overall, but the 60+ population
is projected to increase by 82% (albeit from a smaller base line – from 2,400 to 4,500). The white
population is projected to grow much less.

Disability
There are many measures related to disability, each with a slightly different emphasis. For example,
some focus on disability as a barrier to economic activity, rather than the extent to which day to day
activities are limited, or the kind of care needed. Comparisons would not be meaningful unless the
same measure was used.
About 37,000 people in Lambeth say their day-to-day activities limited by a long term illness or
disability, about 17,000 limited a lot, and 20,000 limited a little. About 60% of people with a limiting
health condition are aged over 50. About 12% of residents aged 50-64 have a limiting health
condition, as do 27% of 64-74s, 46% of 75-84s and 64% of over 85s
Data from the eside ts su e found that 12-16% of adults classify themselves as having a long
term limiting illness or disability; 2-3% of young people aged 11-19 years classify themselves this
way.
The PANSI system, produced by the Department of Health, projecting data from the Health Survey
for England to a borough level suggests that there are 18,000 working age residents who have a
moderate or severe physical disability in the borough, and 36,000 who have a common mental
disorder.

Gender
There are slightly more women than men resident in Lambeth – around 155,400 females compared
to 154,700 males. Males and females have different age profiles. The young working age population,
from around 25 to 50, is about 51% male and 49% female. For all ages over 50, there are more
females than males. 53% of people aged 50+ are female, 47% male.
Pregnancy and maternity
There are around 4-5,000 births in Lambeth every year. Between 2 to 3% of respondents to
La eth s ‘esidents Survey are currently pregnant or on maternity leave, suggesting that at any
one time, there are between 6,000 and 9,000 Lambeth residents currently pregnant or on maternity
leave.

Sexual orientation and gender identity
Recent health estimates suggest that Lambeth has one of the largest populations of men who have
sex with men (MSM) in the UK16. 3-5% of respondents to the Lambeth Residents Survey identified
themselves as lesbian, gay or bisexual. This level has remained constant since first being asked in
2007, although this is likely to be an under representation.

It has been estimated that there are 20 transgender people per 100,000 people in UK, which
suggests roughly 50-60 people in Lambeth17. There is not much local data - of 24,800 Lambeth
tenants, 28 (0.1%) are transgender18.
Ethnicity
A ou d % of La eth s population is white with a UK background. White people make up 59% of
the population. Around 40% of Lambeth residents are White British or Irish, in line with inner
London (43%).
15% of the population are from other white backgrounds – around 47,000 people. About two thirds
of these people are from Europe outside UK & Ireland. 8% are from Central and South America, 4%
from North America and the Caribbean, and 8% from Australasia.

is black African (11.5%), followed by black Caribbean (9.8%). Lambeth has the second largest
proportion of black Caribbean people in London (9.5%) after Lewisham (11%).
Lambeth has a very small Asian population compared to many places in London. Only 7.8% of
Lambeth residents are from Asian backgrounds (including Chinese), much less than the inner London
average (14.5%). On a measure of diversity based on the number of different/distinct groups present
in the population and the sizes of these distinct groups relative to each other19, Lambeth is the 11th
most diverse borough in the country, scoring 4.9. For comparison, Greater London as whole scores
4.3 out of a maximum score of 18, and almost all London boroughs score over 3.5. The most diverse
boroughs are Newham and Brent (scoring 9.3 and 8.7 respectively). These boroughs have both a
large number of different ethnic groups in the population, as well as a large proportion of BME
people. Lambeth has a high proportion of people from non-White British ethnic groups, but fewer
groups are represented than in the most diverse boroughs.

Socio-economic status, poverty and deprivation
Like many London boroughs, Lambeth has areas of affluence and areas of poverty, often side by
side. There is a persistent pool of economically inactive people with little mobility and this group
tends to experience high levels of social exclusion and poor education, employment and health
outcomes.
The latest deprivation data is the 2010 Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD). IMD 2010 places
Lambeth as the 8th most deprived borough in London and 14th most deprived in England, a relative
worsening of position since 2008 when Lambeth was ranked 19th most deprived. This is less
deprived than Hackney, Tower Hamlets, and Newham which are the most deprived nationally and
similar to boroughs like Southwark (26th), Lewisham (24th) and Haringey (18th). The Indices of
Deprivation are scheduled to be updated in 2015.
Those living in the most deprived areas are spread throughout the borough but are particularly
concentrated in Coldharbour ward. The most affluent areas include the Thames-side part of Bishops
ward and the Dulwich border area of Thurlow Park.
Lambeth has 177 super output areas (SOAs), each with roughly 1,500 residents. According to the
2010 IMD data only 8 of these 177 areas (5% of the borough, listed below) are in the 10% most
deprived in the country compared to 26 (15%) in 2007. This indicates that although overall
deprivation levels have increased over the last 3 years with the borough going from 19th to 14th most
deprived in the country there are far fewer pockets of extreme deprivation than a few years ago.

One in three children attending Lambeth schools is eligible for free school meals (31% for primary
and 31% for secondary). This is comparable with inner London but higher than nationally 25. Around
a third (35.5%) of children in Lambeth live in poverty26.

Health
Lambeth health issues reflect it being an inner-city urban area with a young population profile and a
mix of deprivation and affluence. Over 85% of people in Lambeth say they are in good or very good
health, almost half (49%) in very good health. There are around 14,000 people who are in bad or
very bad health, just under 5% of the population. This pattern is typical of London boroughs.
A out o e of La eth s households i fi e a ou d ,
households has so eo e ith a lo gterm health problem or disability, which is around average for London. About 6% of Lambeth
residents have their day-to-day activities limited a lot by a long-term health problem or disability
(18,600 people), and another 6.6% (20,000 people) are limited a little. Around 20,500 people
provide unpaid care to someone else, just under 7%. This is one of the lowest rates of provision of
unpaid care in London.
Children & Young people
Lambeth is worse than the England average for several social conditions that can adversely affect
the wellbeing of children and young people: immunisations of children in care; children achieving a
good level of development within Early Years Foundation Stage; 16-18 year olds not in employment,
education, or training; first time entrants to the criminal justice system; family homelessness; and
children in care.
Infant deaths : Lambeth has historically had a higher than average infant mortality rate. The infant
mortality rate has declined from 7.1 per 1,000 live births in 2001-03 to 6.5 in 2009-2011. Lambeth is
significantly worse than the England average in infant mortality.
Proportion of children in poverty: Improving from 43.2% five years ago to 32.7% in 2012.
Obese Children (Year 6). The latest National Childhood Measurement Programme (NCMP) results
for the 2011/12 academic year show that obesity prevalence for Lambeth Reception year children
(4-5 years old) is down to 10.8%, the lowest recorded since the NCMP was introduced, and for the
first time lower than the London average of 11.0%. Prevalence for Year 6 children (10 -11 years old)
is 25.2%, and although relatively high appears to be stabilising unlike the average prevalence for
London and England which both appear to be rising. Participation levels continue to be high in
Lambeth, at 98% and 96.4% for Reception and Year 6 respectively.
Teenage pregnancy (under 18) Lambeth has had one of the highest rates of under-18 conceptions in
England for some time, and this peaked in 2003 with the borough having the highest teenage
pregnancy rate in Western Europe. The latest data for 2011 shows a reduction of 66.1% in the
under-18 conception rate since 2003, with a rate of 34.8 per 1000 girls aged 15-17 bringing it nearly
in line with the England-wide rate of 30.7
Young sexually transmitted infections: HIV prevalence in Lambeth is the highest in England with
13.9/1,000 affected among 16-59 year olds in 2010. In 2011, the prevalence of HIV in pregnant
women in inner London (the lowest level of geography available) was 0.41% compared to the
England-wide prevalence of 0.16% 41% of acute STI diagnoses are in young people 15-24 years old.
The AIDS mortality rate has been halved during the past 10 years in South East London. High rates of
STI diagnoses among young adults are likely to be the result of the high risk of STIs within the
Lambeth population, as well as the high level of screening. In 2012, Lambeth had 3,460 diagnoses of
Acute sexually transmitted infections (including chlamydia) amongst young people. There were 89
diagnoses per 1,000 population aged 15-24, compared to the England average of 34, and the best in
England of 14. This is the highest rate of STI infections nationally.
Smoking status at delivery; breastfeeding initiation and prevalence at 6 weeks after birth; A&E
attendence (aged 0-4) and hospital admissions for asthma, and hospital admissions caused by
injuries in young people, and hospital admissions as a result of self-harm (aged 10-24) are
significantly better than the England average.
20
Working age
Overall, premature mortality in Lambeth is 108th out of 150 local authorities in England. Cancer
102nd out of 150, heart disease and stroke 100th out of 150, Lung disease 111th out of 150 and
Liver disease 108th out of 150
Smoking related deaths: Over the last ten years the prevalence of smoking in Lambeth has reduced
significantly to 20.1%. In 2011/12 the service helped 2,530 individuals to stay quit at four weeks,
exceeding the Department of Health target by over 500 quitters.
Early deaths: heart disease and stroke. Premature deaths from circulatory diseases (heart disease
and strokes) The 3-year average mortality rate for circulatory diseases (< 75 years) has fallen by 50%,
from 175.3 deaths per 100,000 in 1995-97 to 87.7 in 2008-10. The absolute gap between Lambeth
and England has reduced by 40% over the same time period (see fig.10).
Premature deaths from all cancers . The 3-year average premature mortality (< 75 years) from all
cancers has fallen by 15% from a baseline 161.8 per 100,000 in 1995-97 to 137.1 per 100,000 in
2008-10 (see fig.11).
Several other health indicators are significantly better than the England average
Alcohol-specific hospital stays (under 18): 26% in 2012
Healthy eating adults: Improving From 30.3% five years ago to 37.5% in 2012
Physically active adults: Improving From 14.8% five years ago to 63.5% in 2012
Obese adults: Not Improving From 18.6% five years ago to 20.5% in 2012
Hospital stays for self-harm: 81.4% in 2012
People diagnosed with diabetes: Not Improving from 4% five years ago to 4.4% in 2012
Smoking in pregnancy: Improving from 6.6% five years ago to 4.7% in 2012

Community safety
La eth s o e all i e ate is a e age fo Lo do , si ila to othe i e London boroughs, and
much less than Westminster which is the highest by some way. Burglary, personal robbery, antisocial behaviour and motor vehicle crime are all average for London and comparable with similar
inner London boroughs.
Violence is above average, as is the most serious violent crime. Between 2011 and 2013 more than a
third of all shootings in London were in Lambeth, although gun crime is reducing substantially. The
areas of Lambeth with the highest crime rates are all town centres with transport interchanges: the
South Bank river frontage, which is similar to the West End and has very high numbers of visitors;
the area around Vauxhall transport hub; Brixton town centre and central Brixton; and Clapham High
St eet, the e t e of Clapha s ight-time economy. Between 2011 and 2013 there were more
shootings in Lambeth than any other London borough.
Although crime remains the top concern for adult residents in Lambeth, the level of concern is
reduced in recent years and is currently at the lowest level recorded, with two in five adults (38%)
citing this as a worry. Concern about crime amongst young people (21% stating that they worry
about crime) is on a par with 6 months ago. The chart below illustrates the concern for crime since
2005 and the underlying decline in crime as a concern among adults and young people.
The biggest perceived anti-social behaviour (ASB) problem amongst adults in the local area is people
using or dealing drugs (37% find this a problem).
There is an increase in the number of adults finding teenagers hanging around the streets a problem
in the local area, up from 25% in November 2012 to 31% in April 2013. This may be a seasonal trend
due to the improved weather and increased sunlight during this period of interviews. A third (33%)
of young people also perceive this to be a problem.
The number of adults, who perceive vandalism, graffiti and other deliberate damage to property or
vehicles as being a problem is up (23% in April 2013 compared to 18% in November 2012). Three in
ten young people (30%) find this a problem.
22
Four in five adults (82%) and young people (78%) do not find noisy neighbours to be a problem.
Burnt out and abandoned cars continue to be the least problematic issue for both adults and young
people, with the majority of adults (95%) and young people (85%) not finding this a problem.
Three-quarters (75%) of young people and 71% of adults recall seeing or experiencing crime or ASB
in the past 12 months, on a par with two years ago when this was last recorded. The most common
incident that adults have witnessed is begging (40%) followed by street drinking (34%) which has
increased by 7% points in the last two years.
For young people, begging is also the top experience that they recall, with a significant increase from
32% to 47% over the last six months. Over the last year, 36% of young people have seen or
experienced street drinking.
23
Economy
From a socio-e o o i poi t of ie , La eth s populatio is t pi al of Lo do o oughs. Over 45%
of Lambeth residents are educated to degree level, which is comparable with many inner London
boroughs as well as Oxford and Cambridge. Around 14% of residents have no qualifications, which is
about average for London.
Socio-economic classification27 gives an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
About a quarter (26.9%) of Lambeth working age residents are in lower managerial, administrative
and professional occupations. This is the largest category. 2.4% of working age residents are longterm unemployed, which is one of the highest in London.
The average household income in 2011-12 in Lambeth was just under £45,000, and the median
£36,000. The median income is similar to much of London – 25 out of 33 boroughs have a median
income between £30-40,000. The average is more affected by high or low values, with Kensington
a d Chelsea the highest at £ ,
a d Ne ha the lo est at £ ,
. La eth s a e age
household income is between the averages for outer London (£44k) and inner London (£46k), and
similar to Southwark (£45.7k)28
Data from the Residents Survey indicates that between 15%-20% of residents own their own
business. However, the 2011 census indicates that Lambeth has a small proportion of small
employers and own account workers compared to other London boroughs.

particular, Lambeth has a very strong dependence on health sector employment, which employs
almost 28,000 people and accounts for 21% of total employment in Lambeth – twice the London
average. Much of this employment is likely to be linked to the two major London hospitals located in
the o ough St Tho as a d Ki gs . E ployment in this sector also accounts for 27% of all
Knowledge Intensive Industries employment in the Borough29.

Business Administration and Support Services (which nationally includes rental and leasing activities,
employment agencies, and office administration and support activities) is also an important sector
for Lambeth, but has declined in recent years however this may improve as the economic recovery
becomes more robust. Other strongly represented and growing sectors include Information and
Communications and the Food Accommodation Sector.
While the sector has experienced modest levels of growth in recent years, Lambeth has a lower

concentration of employment in healthcare – including two major London research hospitals.
Business base
Lambeth is characterised by smaller businesses compared to the London average. Data from the
ONS Business Statistics on VAT and PAYE registered businesses identifies that in 2013:
 85% of Lambeth businesses employed between 1 and 4 people. This compares to 78% for
London and 75% for Inner London. This is the highest rate of all London Boroughs.
 Lambeth also had the highest proportion of business with a turnover of less than £250,000
per year (81% compared to 70% across London and 66% for Inner London).
 Two-fifths
% of La eth s usi esses a e less tha t o ea s old. This is also the highest
proportion of all London Boroughs where the average is 23%; the next highest is Newham
with 31%. Only 23% of businesses in Lambeth have been operating for more than ten years
compared to 34% across London.
 Lambeth has an eight year trend of above London business start-up (registration rates).
 One, two and three year survival rates for registered businesses have seen an improvement
in recent years though five year survival rates since 2002 have been below the average for
London.

North Lambeth
North Lambeth is already a key business and cultural area, although it lacks a coherent town centre.
North Lambeth boasts a vibrant global cultural quarter containing Lambeth Palace, the Royal Festival
Hall, the National Theatre, the Old and Young Vic theatres, the British Film Institute and the London
E e. The South Ba k is o e of e t al Lo do s leadi g usi ess dist i ts, ho e to i te atio al
companies such as Shell and ITV. Indeed, it already accommodates not far short of half the
borough s total number of jobs. It is also a gateway to the south through major transport
interchanges at Waterloo and Vauxhall and is home to the iconic Oval cricket ground.
However, North Lambeth is a collection of areas rather than a coherent town centre, with distinct
mainly non-residential neighbourhoods such as Vauxhall and Waterloo, and deprived residential
areas separated from the riverside by stations, viaducts and busy roads.
Bishop's
