London, UK. 24th September 2016. Housing campaigners Focus E15 dance at the party at the weekly street stall on Stratford Broadway to celebrate the third anniversary of the fight against Newham Council. The 29 young mothers stood together to fight against their eviction from the Focus E15 hostel, refusing to accept being moved out of London, away from families and communities and demanding to be allowed to continue to live in the area they knew as home. Their lively campaign forced Newham to rehouse them locally, but they continue to campaign for others, bringing issues of social cleansing and unjust housing in Newham and elsewhere to public attention, recently setting up Sylvia's Corner, a radical hub for East London.
