At just 20 years old, Dylan Law is already making waves in British politics, from growing up in Hackney to becoming one of the youngest Deputy Mayors in the country.

Appointed Deputy Mayor of Hackney in May 2026, he represents a new generation of political leadership, bringing first hand understanding of the challenges facing young people and local communities. His journey, shaped by his experiences growing up in East London, has fuelled his interests in tackling housing inequality and improving opportunities. Now, as a Green Party councillor for Hackney Downs and Cabinet Member for Safer Homes and Housing Services, he's in a position to make a difference. Law's story has attracted wider media attention, including features in British Vogue and i-D, and is undoubtedly a name to watch for the future.
