I have a neighbour whose trees have overgrown both outwards and upwards to the point where I do not have any light in my garden I have contacted Southwark who have basically fobbed me off but the house is council owned

And the occupants are not that social and do not even use the garden

I am tempted to hire a chain saw and just go and chop them down but knowing my luck I would end up with armed police arriving :):)

Have you spoken to the neighbours?


If they don't use the garden they might be quite happy for you to pay to have someone chop off the offending branches or even chop down the whole tree ......


What did Southwark actually say when you approached them? If you have something in writing that would cover you if the tree was chopped down it might be useful .....

      Is it not a legal requirement to issue a receipt? If you don’t get one, ask. If that doesn’t work, report. 🎄 💴

      Vet recommendation

      By tiddles · Posted

      Miss Robson is the last of the old school independent vets. All the chains are have seriously hiked their prices over the last few years which now makes pet ownership only possible for the wealthy few. Even with pet insurance -( which often excludes items or has ‘deductibles’ ) it is just so much money. A visit with some medication is often £150 - £200. The vets themselves are excellent.

      Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
