Brighton and Hove Citizens is an independent membership alliance of civil society institutions acting together for the common good of our city.

Our membership organisations reach over 50,000 of Brighton and Hove's citizens - pupils, teachers, parents, students and workers of all faiths and none.

Founded in April 2019 we have already held an Assembly with over 200 members of our community and the three leaders of the Labour, Conservative, and Green parties in Brighton and Hove Council.

At this Assembly we announced the first issues we want to tackle - and asked the political leaders of our city to commit to change them with us.

Together our leaders and communities are:

• Working with the Council and the local NHS Trust to reform Mental Health Services across the city.
• Focusing on the care sector, to make sure that more care/nursing homes pay their staff the Real Living Wage.
• Working together to make sure that there are more 'safe spaces' for young people across the city.
• Developing plans to address housing/renting costs across the city.
• Building a campaign to make transport more affordable across the city.
