Members of Friends of Queen’s Market (FoQM) joined the London Land Justice Fair this year at Myatt’s Fields Park in South London, a brilliant community-run space that shows what local power looks like in action!
FoQM members Andrew, Halima, Pauline and Saif spent the day meeting campaigners from Newham and across London, swapping stories, sharing wins, and building solidarity for fairer land use across the city. We can’t recommend it enough – it’s a refreshing change from the dull, corporate “immersive experiences” sold to Londoners and tourists alike – your cash is much better spent on local initiatives that really need it!
Watch the short film from the Land Justice Fair here:
The fair was packed with inspiring stalls, workshops, and grassroots groups all coming together to fight for land justice, community control, and a fairer London. It wasn’t just about campaigning, it was about connection, creativity, and fun.

New this year: the launch of the Land Justice Charter for London, a bold call to action for everyone who believes land should serve people, not profit.
