Warning: We R Blighty outside M&S
snowy replied to portioncontrol's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
It's a criminal offense. CICs can't fundraise on the street - they're a less regulated form of organization and that lighter touch means you can't do certain things until you commit to greater regulation. If you want to fundraise on the street then you need to become a charity. if they have mislead a shop by stating that they are a charity, they're breaking criminal law. if they're on the pavement, again they are not licensed to do that and are breaking the law. -
Isn't it because any bladed item now needs to sold with a new set of legal conditions (age verification etc) which this forum doesn't have? Even if there's a tool to remove stones from a horses hoof, and a tiny pair of tweezers its still got a blade.

Unregulated fundraising. To start with; They're not registered as the right type of organisation that can do street collecting, which they could register as but that would expose them to more responsibilities and liability. They don't have permission from the property owners and aren't following any Fundraising Regulator guidelines. -

'Foodbank' street collector outside M&S
snowy replied to Castleton's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I mean good luck to you, but with 4 staff you have still failed to submit your statutory accounts for your two eligible years of operation and are overdue with them this year too. Companies House have taken steps to close you twice. Your annual loss in trading is increasing each year. You have had two directors resign in 2022 leaving only 1 in place which isn't the best if you want good governance- but that also stops you from being able to raise funds from trusts and foundations. -

I cycle it regularly and see a broad range of people using it. -

Tellingly no comment on any of the other points? Come on - give us a yes or no answer- were the sydenham hill road changes put in to reduce driver speeds irrespective of the cycle lane addition? and on cycle lanes: https://gprivate.com/6g4et -
Sydenham Hill Consultation: a manipulative trend or a one-off?

It will probably do your blood pressure no good to hear that cycle lanes aren't compulsory and aren't recommended if you're cycling over 12mph. None of the anti-infrastructure comments reflect that the road narrowing was implemented because drivers were consistently breaking the speed limit and causing collisions. What's the usual line - 'when will the driving community accept responsibility for the actions of some of its members "? It wasn't installed to create a new cycle lane, that was an ancillary project. -

Works for the council or has the ability to do a basic google search? I mean its all there - summarised in the 2015 scoping report and then the 2020 plan. Just search for sydenham hill 20mph. the works were going ahead irrespective of the small cycle lane. The borough has a 20mph limit and this road was identified as one where the average speed was way in excess of that. The road narrowing and pedestrian crossing are there to reduce speeds to the speed limit and to improve pedestrian safety. Nothing to do with the usual conspiratorial unsubstantiated bobbins from Rockets. Southwark Cyclists became a consultee, because you know, they represent some cyclists. The rest of Rockets post just repeats a post made elsewhere and just seems to be more ill informed guff. Remarkably similar to what the nee One Dulwich partners have been posting on twitter too. Strange coincidence.
