Hi both


My girlfriend and I moved to Bellenden Road a month or so ago. We really like East Dulwich, but our journey to work is from Peckham Rye so it's great to live so close to the station.


Completely agree with Chantelle about the local eateries. We also love the chocolate shop (The Melange - check it out for a thick steamy hot chocolate if you haven't done so yet), Ganapati and the Meat Wagon (which turns up from time to time at the nearby industrial estate of all places). For drinks, Bar Story and the pop-up place on top of the carpark (Franks, I think) are also good fun. Looking forward to the Warwick Gardens WingDing on Saturday week - maybe see you there ...

Consider the graceful, riverine sweep of Bellenden Road as it flows from Danby to Chadwick.


Here on its sunny banks we find bakers, choclatiers, clothiers, launderers, automobile entertainment specialists, hairdressers and licensed victuallers.


Scuttling through the undergrowth are the night animals; prostitutes, addicts and the lost seeking the warmth of a darkened burrow as day breaks.


On the upper, western reaches of the Bellenden slumber the urban masses, tightly secured in loft-converted dwellings.


To the east, the street meanders with estuarine langour and reluctance into the great Peckham Delta.


But here, between Danby and Chadwick, that is all yet to come. And life seems possible.

panda- I moved in to the victoria inn when we opened almost 4 months ago & I have been overwhelmed with the area. I feel like i have lived here for years!

everyone is so friendly & there is a real community feeling around here & i can honestly say i couldn't imagine wanting to live anywhere else.

you have Ganapati on your doorstep which i think is one of the most incredible places you could ever eat.

have you been there yet?

& obviously you came here so i'm glad you approve of your new local. I missed you that evening though so please do pop in & say hi soon.


Stephen W- did you come to the Meatwagon here last night? now we have knocked down the wall for Yianni to work his magic I'm sure he will be visiting again very soon.

      Infant Observation Invitation

      By MHannity · Posted

      Invitation to Expectant Parents: Infant Observation Are you due to give birth this September or October? Would you be interested in taking part in an Infant Observation with an NHS honorary psychotherapist?  I am an honorary psychotherapist working with adults in the NHS (Adult Complex Needs, Tavistock Clinic). I need to conduct an Infant Observation as part of my NHS training in psychodynamic psychotherapy. By taking part, you can contribute to mental health services and our understanding of human development from birth. Infant Observation is an established part of psychoanalytic training. It allows for the in-depth study of the early life and development of babies in relation to their caregiver(s) in their home environment. I am looking for expectant parent(s) who would be interested in taking part with their infant from about 6 weeks after birth, ideally beginning Oct/Nov 2025. The observation would take place for one hour each week during term time at the infant's home at the same time each week, to be agreed between myself and the caregiver(s), for the duration of 3 academic terms (roughly 9 months to 1 year). My role would be to non-intrusively observe and reflect on the infant's development and communications. The work is a requirement of my training at the Tavistock and would be supervised by a Tavistock clinician. Parents and caregivers can gain support and insight from taking part at this important and unique time in your baby's development. I work with adults in an Adult Complex Needs unit in the NHS, and at Tavistock Relationships. I have worked in a psychotherapy community for survivors of human rights violations where I helped establish a mother and baby group for refugee and asylum seeking mothers. I have a Phd in Literature & I am a contributor to the London Review of Books. I am working on my first book, a history of childhood. I am coming towards the end of my psychotherapy training having already gained a postgraduate diploma in Psychotherapy from the Tavistock NHS Clinic and University of Essex. If you would be interested in taking part with your infant, please respond to this post. With thanks, Mary Hannity
