Southwark Sports Lawn Bowls Open Day - 2nd June 2018


Have you ever wanted to try your hand at playing lawn bowls? Perhaps you've watched it on TV or seen it being played at your local park. Bowls is an accessible game that's quick to learn and combines physical activity with precision, patience and power. Bowls truly is an enjoyable sport for all - all ages, all sexes and all abilities.


If you might be interested in giving it a try, Southwark Sports Lawn Bowls Club will be holding their annual Open Day on 2nd June 2018. The open day is an annual event where the club invites newcomers to come and meet members of the club, who will take you out on the bowling green and show you how to play lawn bowls.


We are based in a beautiful setting at 37 Dulwich Common, SE21 7EU. We are just off Lordship Lane and our bowling green backs on to Dulwich Park. We have charming gardens surrounding the bowling green, it is a real hidden gem, even lifelong Dulwich folk are amazed when they set eyes on our beautiful venue. With white wooden huts and palm trees surrounding the lawn bowls green it makes it an ideal area for outdoor parties and events. All in a completely private, secluded setting. For more detailed information about our location please check the website

All are welcome to come along and join in. Bring the family with you. Bring your own picnic. We will have an outdoor bar with very reasonable bar prices. We will be setting up an outdoor PA to keep you entertained while you are playing. Members of the club will take you out on the green to give you all the coaching need to make you a star player. All equipment is provided ? just remember to wear flat shoes. Our bowling green does not take kindly to stilettos.


We invite you to just turn up on the day, midday onwards, but if you would like any more information then please get in touch

    • Just had a carpets cleaned by Steve Nourse and his colleague at short notice. They are lovely guys and the cleaning was quick and carpets look great. Good value. 
    • Looking for tickets for 2 adults one child under 2 and one child over 2. However, please let me know if you have any combination of tickets you are no longer able to use.  Thanks 07756110500
    • all I said was "take a pro cash stance too far" - what twisting have I done?   plenty of good arguments for retention of cash - but let's not get too detached from reality either lest we go back to trading livestock   But to go back to your post DD:   "Or don't stop using cash" Yep plenty of people will agree with this - nothing controversial here   "Stop using your phone or even your watch as a banknote" - getting a bit weird now - why not - it's super convenient for both users and businesses. And far easier to keep a track of your balance using your electronic wallet than old systems of cheques taking days to clear, how much did I take from cashpoint 2 days ago etc. But people will differ so whatever works   "God only knows how much damage we're doing to the planet because all the above must require a hell of a lot of resources and juice from the grid" - big straw man argument here. Why bring this in? Unless you are also suggesting we don't buy any goods not made from within a 5 mile radius and nothing transported by air or sea? "a big lump of plastic with a screen and full of personal information that can be easily gleamed." I've had my phone stolen but nothing was lost because it was secure.I've been mugged and lost cash and valuable. It's not a binary thing   "your sky rocket with a phone in your hand. It's become a source of dopamine for many. It's an addiction for many."  Proper overreaching now There is a reason people like their modern phones - and it isn't just replacing cash. Replacing all of these functions in a tiny device is a magnificent achievement and to just boil  it down to "big lump with a screen" is reductive in the extreme  
    • I agree with the posts that housing is an urgent need in Peckham and throughout Southwark. But as Alice says, it’s the percentage of social / affordable housing that matters. In October last year, there were over 4,200 households on the Council’s waiting list for housing in Peckham alone (over 17 thousand across Southwark). But the developer is only offering 35% affordable housing (which means that 65% will be unaffordable). Both Southwark Council and the GLA say that a big development like this should provide 50% affordable housing.   Re-development of the site is a great opportunity to make the town centre “cleaner, safer and more sustainable and welcoming” (borrowing Nigello’s great words). Is this dense development going to do that, when it provides no real green and open space where people can spend time outside and nature can help us tackle the growing problems of climate change like absorbing flood water, cooling the air on baking summer days? Are 7-storey buildings along Rye Lane (where the average buildings are 2-3 storeys) going to be welcoming to users of the town centre? How will the development impact on Peckham’s economy? Currently there is busy daytime commercial activity of shops providing for different demographics and needs including a rich offering of international groceries and other products, alongside a thriving night-time economy. I can’t see anything in the proposal that suggests how it will enhance and empower the local economy. Yes please, let’s have a great development on this site that enhances the town centre. This means not letting the developer get away with packing people into dense blocks that turn their back on the town centre and which will be a recipe for urban decay in the long run. Peckham deserves better than this!
