Morrisons are apparently still planning to open there when completed. 6+ months delay due to a planning condition bweing stuck with Sotuhwark planning officers.

Thne i would add, if true, that you have no faith in the practice complaints procedures and state whatever the reason you've lost faith is. If I were a patient there then probably from years of appalling service and with respect to immunisations that they're failing my child's health. Hope that helps. Don't let the...

Please, complain to NHS England BEFORE adding to this thread. This thread is clearly informative but it is NHS England who will make this practice change. I fear most people are not actually complaining to the relevant body. [email protected] If enough people complain something will be done about it. After I formally complained as a local councillor an investigation has been launched and suddenly the DMC are on the forum and employing extra doctors and pharmacists. So we must all keep the pressure up to get things permanently fixed.

Hi ED - NAGAIUTB, Email me your address and details and I will get this sorted.

Hi Jennys, I will. It will take me a week or two to dig out my last email exchange with them and the relevant email address. If you PM me your email address I could copy you on the email I send if you're interested.

Hi first mate, I have objected to these changes. And if the final report recommends the original proposals without change then I will raise my objections with the cabinet councillor before they make their decision and encourage others to do so. I would expect to also formally object to the Traffic Management Order - this would result in the decision having to be reconsidered. I would also encourage others to do the same. But the council is Labour led and if they seriously/legitimately consider all objections and then proceed then as an opposition councillor I will have done my job. It's how we run our democracy. I won't be laying down in the road over these parking proposals. But I will campaign for more Lib Dem councillors so we can achieve a majority and choose to reverse such policies as and decisions as orignally proposed that we disagree with.

Hi first mate, I'm not on the councils Overview & Scrutiny Committee so I wouldn't get to call-in. But without seeing the report and being abel to show how either the proposed recommendation hasn't followed the councils procedures or doesn't align with strategies their will be little I or my Lib Dem colleagues can do. But first, let's see what the final recommendations are and then talk about any next steps. Hi BNG, Any proposed changes will be run past TfL first. No point consulting on something they might reject and they maintain and operate all Sotuhwark traffic lights as well as being stakeholders through running all buses, etc. So the lack of reconsultatino si around not having an internally agreed scheme within Southwark yet. It might also be stalled awaiting to get the elections out of the way... Hi tiddles, I'd expect to hear at the next Dulwich Community Council in March.

Hi Monica, We were told that Lordship Lane could have no parking from Goose Green to outside the Coop store. Which compared to the victims injuries seems a small price to pay. But then we were told creating 2 lanes each way would increase traffic speeds and increase the severity of any crash. Saying that Cllr Rosie Shimell and I asked to meet council officers on site to take a long hard look at this junction and what can be done. We've been blanked so far and we need to escalate our request from before Christmas. One thing that has recently changed. The entry treatment to East Dulwich Grove used to be much more severe and a different colour. it really stood out for both counts. Since it was replaced we've had these two crashes.

Do keep complaining by emailing [email protected] If enough people complain something will be done about it. So far an investigation has been launched and suddenly the DMC are on the forum and employing extra doctors and pharmacists. So we must all keep the pressure up to get things permanently fixed.

Many thanks for this information provide so far. Good to see you're recruiting to provide more capacity to see people. One thought - if someone wanted to call in and cancel an appointment it could take a VERY long time to get through to someone. So some of those no show appoijntments could perhaps have been released for re use IF the DMC was easier to communicate with. So what else are you planning to make the start of the day reliable and the phones answered within a few moments/minutes?

No, first mate I haven't. I've been involved in an exchange with officers who are celarly happy everything is in order. But further opportunities to formnally object ot Traffic Management Orders which will initiate another cycle and opportunity to object/improve the proposals.

Hi first mate, No, Officers are now collating all the responses and will present a report to the cabinet councillor for him to decide. The decision will have a publicly accessible report and a period where councillors can call the decision into Overview & Scrutiny Committee. Then individual traffic management orders will be issued and if any objections received the decision to over rule or adjust the scheme based on those formal objections will take place.

We also have the very helpful Dulwich Helpline for non medical support www.dhscc.org

I believe the Dulwich Society now has more members than the reported East Dulwich Society numbers. The former is active the latter is dormant. I hope the two can merge and be a stronger voice for the whole Dulwich area.

Hi Burbage, Not sure it's a wheeze. But for 99.99% of the current services provided will be available but for 111 hours each week rather than 46.5. I've visited another example of this on Southwark Bridge Road and it is clearly more involved and provides much more than you're suggesting. Either way I;d encourage people to respond to the consultation.

Hi Rhinestone Cowboy, I'll pop along after lunch and take a look - did you want to meet me there at 1.30pm?

Hi lucy_n, You might want to look at the plans for such extensions that have been granted on the Southwark Council planning portal: http://planbuild.southwark.gov.uk:8190/online-applications/advancedSearchResults.do?action=firstPage If you selected ward - East Dulwich and DEvelopment type - minor dwellings It will take some sifting as the brand Portal is much less easy to use than the old one but you will see schemes and hopefully they'll help inspire you.

I suspect having the odd dozen people leaving the practice wont even register with them. They'd need many hundreds to feel any impact and frankly the lcoal choice of quality meidcal practices is very limited. But the complaints authority is likel to notice one practice getting many more complaints that others. For private businesses - and all GP Practices have always been private businesses - they sure give mediocre customer service at best. The rapidly expanding London population is made what was a bad situation much worse.

Yes, it would be moving to the Costcutter.

My understanding is Southwark Council has been sitting on some of the conditions of the original planning approval being released by the developer. That one of these will go to a planning committee 3 March. So things are running 9 months behind but that this appears to be the planning process rather than the developer/s. I believe Morrisons are still no board. Hope this helps.

The Post Office at 369 Lordship Lane is proposed to move to 394-395 Lordship Lane during May/June 2015 A 6 week consultation will start shortly - comments to [email protected] - before 24 March 2015. Ideally any comments to post office please copy me. The new post office will be open for business 7am-11pm MOn-Sat & Sun 8am-11pm vs current 9am-17.30 MOn-Fri, Sat 9am-1pm & Sun closed. The new Post Office won't be able to do Transcash without barcode, NS&I Premium Savings Bonds, On demand travel insurance, payment by cheque. My feedback will be great to move from 46 1/2 hours of opening each week to 111 hours of opening. Would like to know why the 4 services can;t be provided - I'll try and find out how much each represents to East Dulwich residents. PLEASE DO RESPOND TO THE CONSULTATION EDITED to add Post Office attachment.

youre right Ladygooner I misread the National timetable thingy. How stupid to not coordiante closing such a major road with when train routes are closed. I'll ask council officials why they've allowed this to happen and what they plan to do to stop future occurences. Many thanks for putting me right.

NHS England have just written to me to confirm they are investigating my complaint and will be visitnig the practice and asking for them to explain. I will ask to be present if at all possible.

Hi MarkE, I'm pretyy sure Cahampion Hill, Dog Kennel Hill will be cut out from bus routes and buses diverted via Peckham. The otherside would see Denmark Hill cut out and buses diverted via Brixton. It has the potential for a mega traffic nightmare. At least all the local timetabled trains appear to be planned to run Sat & Sun.

For me the distance parents are willing to walk/scoot/cycle their children to school.
