Hi - I'm an SE26 lurker on this forum, and hope some other se26 lurkers might be able to help. :o) My daughter is soooo keen to join Rainbows, like some bigger girls she knows, but I am finding it hard to find a local group - I'm on Sydenham Hill, so Forest Hill/ Sydenham groups might be closer for me than ED and West Dulwich groups.


Does anyone out there know of an se23/ se26/ se21 group? I've tried the girl guide website, but not as helpful as I found the Scouting one for my son.


Many thanks for any tips.

Hi

My daughter goes to 8th Forest Hill Brownies at the Methodist church on Normanton Street in Forest Hill.Rainbows meet slightly earlier and overlap with Brownies as numbers are small.I think there is also a Brownie Pack that meet in St Saviours Hall on Brockley Rise but not sure if they have a rainbow pack.

Let me know if you want contact details

Sorry to hijack this thread but I have been trying and trying to find out details for a Rainbows group in ED. Have tried contacting the Guides through website and the local number by phone but to no avail. Does anyone take their daughter to a group - if so and you could let me know where and when then I will try just turning up to speak to someone in person


thanks

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
