Would anyone be interested if I was to organise a craft fair locally? It would be for handmade items only, maybe with some music going on as well. I used to organise this kind of thing before I moved to london, and east dulwich seems like the perfect place to try it again. There is a huge revival going on of handmade crafts.... So I was wondering who would be up for it, either as a seller or who would want to visit something like that? Also venue ideas would be great! Thanks!

jo77, pubs in ED are all very supportive of local events - I have a food tasting business and have held charity events at the Mag and Hoopers Bar, and have seen many more market-style events advertised! I'm sure if you ask around you'll have no trouble finding a venue. Upstairs at the EDT has always appealed to me, I just haven't got around to organising something there yet ;-)

If you want to include the idea of DIY crafts, The Scarlet Peacock runs some great classes locally.

Good luck!

I would be up for having a stall .. there's loads of up-cycling vintage crafty people in E D also tons of musicians/DJs' and the like ... go for it! Summertime on Goose green? or the constitutional hall on East Dulwich Grove is a great indoor space much under used ,there's even a stage there .

If you need a lively band then have a look at us we do all sorts of events and we can discuss terms as there is always something that can be done if it is a community event, after all we are a community project!!Just google Endurance Steel Orchestra we would be perfect for a summers day outdoor fair!

Good luck with your idea.

Hi everyone, sorry I have been away. Really excited to see lots of interest, from sellers and bands!

I'm definitely doing this, will check out venues. Suggestions welcome! Tables will be reasonably priced, profits will go to charity.

Thanks for the tip about the goose green fair, went last year and it was fab!

Thanks everyone, this is getting exciting! I am exploring venues so will keep you all posted. It will be for charity to raise money for children affected by domestic violence (I do this as a day job and currently one third of all services are having to close due to cuts).

Thanks for the offers of music, that will be fantastic!

      T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD

      By red5 · Posted

      I have had multiple jobs completed at my home by T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, and I wouldn't go to anyone else now. They always come at the agreed day/time, I have never been asked to rearrange. The jobs have always been completed to extremely high standards, and as a perfectionist myself, I appreciate this level of care and detail. I'm grateful of the clear up afterward too, leaving me very little to do after the job is done. I am always blown away by the speed and efficiency  - no waffle, no flannel, just sheer hard work from start to finish. In summary - a highly professional first class service. Don't hesitate to call T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, if you like excellence and trade people that will respect your home.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here.

      You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect
