Sometimes you'll find somewhere on the board small print advertising for the sign company which produces the board and erects the sign. Xpress Signs are the most local to East Dulwich and provide the service to most agents locally. Ring them direct, they'll put it on their job run, providing they work for that particular agent, and get paid to remove them with or without the agents permission!

Thanks SG, will be heading there today!

This sounds really good, is the sticker room free or as it's part of the exhibition do you have to pay? thanks!

Good news......... It's not closing!

Hi Renata, that is fabulous news, a relief to us all! However I do feel the staff who run the 1 O'Clock Club could be kept up to date and better informed as it was one of them that told me of the closure threat last week. Please can you keep us posted regarding the progress and how long the club will be temporary closed whilst the rebuild happens. Curmudgeon re "as for to be honest I'm sick of the closing - not-closing One 'O'Clock club conversations" - so sorry to bore you, just ignore the thread if you feel that way!

I have finally received the green light for the e-petition. You can now sign the campaign for saving the 1 O'Clock Club - Peckham Rye, please spread the word... Campaign to save the 1 O'Clock Club Cheers!

Hi oimissus, snowboarder and nunheadmum appreciate your thoughts and comments and understand your issues regarding timings. Hopefully the opening hrs can be suggested and addressd if there is another meeting. My daughter dropped her naps some time ago (she's 2yrs 5 mths) and as a late riser we missed and actually still can't manage to get to morning activities. I used to bust a gut to get to Rhyme Time at the library! You're little ones will eventually drop the naps and maybe you'll use the 1 o'clock club some day down the line. I agree with you Fuschia, I certainly wasn't meaning to cause offense to others who had previously discussed or continue to fly the flag in saving this centre. I suppose i'm trying to create some attention. I would hate to sit here quietly awaiting news to eventually be told they are axing it....no news is good news yes? But nobody seems to know what's happening and maybe those with the authority are secretly hoping they can close it quietly without any fuss. I just want to help keep it open in whatever way I can....In my mind talking it up seems to be the only productive way to do it at the moment....

Thanks Alieh and Nikki73 and for the previous commentors, I couldn't agree with you more. Other than what I am and have done so far I am also unsure what to do next. My daughter is a late riser so i too find it difficult to find afternoon activities and would be lost if the One O'Clock Club closes. I still haven't heard back from Renata and am still awaiting the e-petition to go live...which I will post as soon as, meanwhile I just don't want the subject to drop off radar! Thanks guys, lets just keep speading the word....

Going to chase up the situation today, slightly disappointed by the lack of enthusiasm, support and concern the threat of this closure is having. With the large volume of babies and toddlers in and around East Dulwich/Peckham etc I had hoped lots of like minded people would at least comment....350+ people may have looked at this thread (10 of which is me dropping in and out - at least!) but very few have taken the time to add their thoughts. Surely someone must have some info or want to express their poitive/negative feelings on the subject. If this place is being discussed then someone who has the authority to keep this place functioning will see the community wants this place to remain operating or develop what already exists. Come on "January Blues" are over and now so is my rant!

Thanks admim for the speediest thread move I have ever seen!

Hi, I managed to start a thread in the wrong section, how can this be moved? It's currently in the Family Room Classifieds and would benefit more from being in The Family Room Discussions....It's The One O'Clock Club - Peckham Rye NEDS SAVING...thanks!

I have no more news but a friend found this on Facebook....Please can you all comment or LIKE...Thanks!Save The 1 O'Clock Club - Facebook Page

Had a reply from Renata.... Hi Sarah, I haven't had an update, so I presume the negotiations are still ongoing, but I will chase this up and get back to you next week. Kind regards Renata

I have just inboxed Renata Hamvas to see what progress has been made and our concerns... I'll let you know what rsponse I receive....

Hey Fuschia, thanks for highlighting the thread....I probably only saw save the Crystal Palace One O'Clock Club threads and probably didn't look far enough back. Looks like no info has been added since Dec re the Ivydale Centre taking over. I think I'll try and get in touch with Renata Hamvas. I really got the wrong end of the stick when I read they would take over! It has gone worryingly quiet and it certainly wasn't brought up in the conversation I had with the staff yesterday. I suppose keeping the discussion fresh and going proves a need for the 1 o'clock club so I certaily wont let it drop.....hope you guys and more are on board. I new and improved building would be fabulous!
