My husband was in a cycling accident just after 10pm on Friday, May 30. He hit the pedestrian crossing pole going west down East Dulwich Grove, just past Glengarry Road. He was knocked out and doesn’t remember anything - and I wanted to say thank you to whoever called the ambulance, and was there with him after the accident. (And to give you an update: thankfully, there was no head injury. He got very lucky with just a fractured face.) We’re trying to get CCTV footage - but if there any witnesses who can help paint a clearer picture of what happened, it would be really appreciated.

Thank you everyone for your help! I was in contact with London Wildlife Protection, who sent over a couple of lovely volunteers to pick up the pigeon. We?d checked on him 15 minutes before they arrived? but unfortunately the pigeon was nowhere to be found when they showed up. Hopefully he just needed a bit of rest and was able to fly away. I typically detest pigeons, but it?s sort of wonderful to see so many people care for their well-being. The kind folks at https://www.londonwildlifeprotection.org/ accept donations if anyone is feeling inspired to contribute to the cause.

We got a bit of a surprise yesterday afternoon when our pup got hold of a pigeon in the garden. The poor thing must have already been injured or ill ? our little dog usually isn't much of a threatening predator (and she hardly got to the bird before I grabbed her.) We'd hoped the bird might make his way off, but 24 hours-ish later he's still just hanging in the corner of our garden looking scared and sickly. Does anyone know who we can call? I've found info on the Southwark site for dead animal removal, but I have no clue what I can do with a sick pigeon that I'm not too keen on handling myself.

Hi! We are bringing home a mini dachshund this week, and I?m wondering if there are any other new pup owners in the area who might be interested in setting up a puppy play date.
