Cllr Djemai’s lived experience with HS2 played a pivotal role in catching the attention of both HS2 leadership and Camden Council, ultimately inspiring her to run for public office. In the podcast, she discusses Camden’s Local Plan, the role of public-private partnerships, and the borough’s ambitious Community Investment Programme – a £2.3bn initiative delivering over 1,700 homes, marking a key milestone in a pipeline of 4,850 new homes. She also emphasises her belief that residents are the experts, advocating for a community-led approach that ensures local voices help shape and deliver Camden’s major developments.
