Croydon North was a constituency[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament from 2012 until its abolition for the 2024 general election by Steve Reed of Labour Co-op.[n 2] The seat was created in 1918 and split in two in 1955 (taking in neighbouring areas) and re-devised in a wholly different form in 1997.
Under the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the majority of the constituency was incorporated into the re-established seat of Croydon West, with northern parts, including the areas of Norbury, Thornton Heath and Upper Norwood, forming part of the newly created constituency of Streatham and Croydon North.[2]
