According to the EDAG website: "We Are A Group Of Volunteers Comprising Of East Dulwich Businesses, Market Traders And Residents."


Presumably the group has a small committee and a leader/co-ordinator of some sort.


I'm not alone in finding the apparent anonymity of the group a bit disconcerting. In the interests of transparency, it would be good if the website could name the main individuals who are involved.

via GIPHY


Oh my... it's happening... again!


Don't be disconcerted, disheartened or discombobulated "Reg".

We addressed this as part of our mural post. If you have some time on your hands, and the disconcertationing just won't quit, you could check back for the answer to your question.

What is the purpose of these lamp post banners?


Will they be advertising local businesses?


And if so, are the photographers whose photos are to be used being paid?

And are the photographers being paid for the use of their photos in all these other ways? And possibly not even going to be credited for their photos?



Sorry to be cynical, but this smacks of exploitation to me, irrespective of what was included in the terms and conditions of entry for the competition.



>The winners will be announced by 10 July 2018 on LoveEastDulwich.com



You say people have been "busy". Everybody is "busy". You should surely have taken into account the judges' other commitments before publicising 10 July as the date when you would announce the winners?


It is now three months since 10 July. Have all the judges been "busy" and the key people "unavailable" for three months? If so, it doesn't seem terribly likely that there will ever be a time when they will not be, does it?



ETA: And please give a link to other threads which you refer to, thanks.

Thanks for your queries. A lot of these have already been addressed, when asked in a similar one, on our other threads, so we won't go over old ground.


We'll be back on here with an update on progress as soon as we can. In the meantime, actual day jobs and all that...

So we are just supposed to hunt around the forum for these "other threads" to get answers to our questions?



And even then they will only answer "a lot" of the questions on this thread?


What about the other questions?


And I agree that the tone and content of your recent posts on here are bizarre to say the least.


You seem to have time to post ridiculous GIFs, but no time to answer perfectly reasonable questions, or to provide links to your other threads.

any way i don't care about the wining photos now as we won't see them till after christmas, i hope the winners are named and the photos are put on the forum so we can see them. but i won't hold my breath. as the photos can be used for 3 years don't you think it's a good idea to start another East Dulwich Photo Competiton this will give the organisers time to PICK A WINNER.

EAST DULWICH PHOTO COMPETITION - EXHIBITION STARTS 5-6 JAN JEANNIE AVENT GALLERY


Following an incredible response from East Dulwich amateur photographers and Instagrammers, and a very difficult selection process, we are delighted to launch the East Dulwich "Me & ED" photo exhibition at the Jeannie Avent Gallery from 5-6 January 2019.


The submission process closed with a massive 411 entries, featuring a wide range of your favourite ED subjects, sent in by residents, visitors, instagrammers and photographers from the local community.


Judging took place at the end of the year, and after much deliberation and discussion, our fantastic panel of judges, comprising of residents, photographers, MPs, local businesses and artists, whittled 411 entries down to 20 winning shots.


All 411 entries, including the 20 winning shots, feature in an exhibition in the Jeannie Avent Gallery opening tomorrow and Sunday from 11am-4pm. We'd love you to come and check it out!

Jeannie Avent Gallery, 14 North Cross Road


These shots will also feature in an outdoor exhibition of banners mounted throughout the village, appearing in January.


We'd like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who participated, our awesome winners, our fantastic judges and Jeannie Avent for giving us the space to show your photos!


We'll be releasing the winning shots over the next few days on Instagram at

We'll also be releasing them at the same time on our website:

Super excited to reveal the winners of the @loveeastd #meanded photo competition


We'll be posting them all on here in the next few weeks but in the meantime, to see the winners and all the other amazing entries on display, head to the Jeannie Avent Gallery on North Cross Road this weekend from 11am - 4pm.


Congratulations to Paul Scannell, LemorDanny Abbott, Andrew Carter, Kate Hills, Bethie Hungerford, Amy Little, Fraser MacDonald, Talitha McQueen, Gemma Mills, Lynetta Moran, Hannah Morris, Stephanie Rogers, Paul Scannell, Limor Tevet, Romy Thomas, Mark Thompson, Roger Williams & Katriona Windsor

eastDAG, can't believe you have the gall to post on here after the slatting you got last time, but you have, so here goes......... So it has taken this bunch of self appointed judges made up of a local councillor, a gallery owner, two photographers, a web site editor, an e paper editor, someone from an art club, a VA of an RA and a local retailer six months to select and "judge" 20 winners (5%) from 411 photo's!!! Really what took them so long? (oh,and no excuses, just some honest answers)


Don't repeat the fiasco and if you even consider doing it again, I'd suggest a group of professionals who know what they are up to, who can select the best pictures, who most importantly have the time, resources, capability and balls to do the job properly.

Wow, that's really unpleasant and vitriolic dbboy. Personally I think it's good that something creative like this has been tried and done, hopefully there will be more things like it.The first time's never going to be perfect but spitting nails at them and saying don't repeat it again makes it sound like they tried to organise a far-right march.


eastDAG, thanks for trying, I know what it's like to herd cats and get shit done whilst real life gets in way sometimes. By the way I think the judges sound like a good mix.

Good afternoon everyone! After an incredibly hectic and successful exhibition at the Jeannie Avent Gallery over the weekend, it's time to start revealing the winners of the @loveeastd #meanded photocompetition. We'll be releasing the winners on our Instagram account (https://www.instagram.com/loveeastd/) over the week, but if you can't wait, you can pop over to our website (www.loveeastdulwich.com/me-ed-photo-competition) to see all the incredible entries.

Hello EastDAG

correct me if I am wrong , your OP in the "what's on" section, stated the exhibition would run until 9th January. I passed by there today and everything had been taken down. What happened?


Kind regards

Lavender27


Ps I have also posted same message in "what's on"

These three pictures are very nice but none of them seem to have been taken in East Dulwich!


Seems a poor advert for East Dulwich that even its own residents think the best thing about it is leaving to go to a neighbouring area!

The autumn leaves one looks like it could be the walkway from Barry Road to the beginning of Nunhead Lane but I agree that the other two look more like Dulwich Park than East Dulwich.


And what is it with EDAG?s signature at the bottom - Village Wide Banner Exhibition. What Village? Or have Dulwich Estates agreed to banners being mounted on lamp-posts in Dulwich Village? That?ll be the day.

Hi Lavender

That was my mistake unfortunately. When we discussed the exhibition initially, the end date was the 9th.

However another artist needed the space for a commercial exhibition, and as Jeannie was kindly giving us the space for free, we had to cut it short. I'm really sorry about this. We MIGHT be running it again in the future if we can find the space. 411 shots take up a LOT of wall space, and we still have nightmares about the bluetack!! : )

All the entries however are here:

Abe - The original brief was "your favourite shots in an around East Dulwich"

So the shots have been bang on tbh.


Lots of variety of subject and locations over the 411 shots. You can find them here:

Hi Nxjen

I think most locals would class Dulwich Park as in their area.

And by village, I meant East Dulwich. I can change it to "Hood" or "Yard" to differentiate?

The banner exhibition will be limited to the boundaries of East Dulwich.

Hello DAGS


I missed the exhibition and have gone to your website where you say we can view all the photographs, I was under the impression that we could view them one by one and not the wall exhibition as placed in the gallery. I cannot see all the photos they are blurred and on enlarging the screen makes it worse.


Am I looking in the wrong place is there a separate place to view them one by one.


Kind regards

Lavender.

Hi Lavender


It looks like you are trying to zoom into a photo of the images in the gallery. That's the wrong page.


All the images are available to view individually here:

https://loveeastdulwich.com/me-ed-photo-competition/


Let me know this has solved your query please!

Hope you love the shots.

    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/police-hunt-attack-south-london-b1247389.html Apologies if already posted on here - did look, couldn't find anything... 'The Metropolitan Police have appealed for help to find a man after a woman was seriously injured in an unprovoked attack in south London. The woman, in her 20s, was assaulted on Lordship Lane in East Dulwich at around 4.45pm on Monday August 25. She was treated by paramedics for injuries to her face and her jaw was broken in the attack. The victim was then taken to hospital and she continues to be supported by specialist officers. Officers are now searching for the suspect and are urging members of the public to come forward if they have information. He is described as a black man in his 30s or 40s with balding hair. He was wearing dark clothing during the attack. He is said to have approached the woman while she was by herself before swearing at her and then hitting her in the face. Detective constable Charlotte Kerr, who is leading the investigation, said: “We are working hard to find the person we believe is responsible for this senseless and unprovoked attack. “While we continue our enquiries, we hope our increased neighbourhood police presence will offer some reassurance to women and girls throughout the local area. “If you saw anything on Monday, 25 August – particularly between the junction of Lordship Lane and Chesterfield Grove at around 16:45hrs - do not hesitate to get in touch with us. “No matter how small you think your information is, it may be the key that unlocks our investigation.” Any witnesses or anyone who can help identify the suspect is asked to please contact the Met via 101, quoting 5018/25AUG or 01/7897951/25. Those who wish to share information anonymously can contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.'
    • I think, with schools, you really have to find the one that suits your child, rather than moving to a school catchment and then hoping it works. Mine both went to a high ranking and covetable school and had very different experiences - one loved it and the other was bullied and traumatised, and hated it. WE actually moved away because she couldn't walk around the area (yes - Dulwich area, so one of the local schools).
    • We live a little further down, on Pymers Mead. Traffic is terrible (always has been, but worse since the introduction of the Southwark LTNs). It's mainly the school drop -- traffic is noticeably lighter once the private schools break up  Have a few friends who live on that side of CR backing on to the train line. None has had any major complaints and the gardens on that stretch are fairly long, so you're not right on the line. Some have kids who go to Charter North -- its catchment defintely extends to Croxted Road. Other state secondaries nearby are Elmgreen and, of course, Kingsdale, although that doesn't have a catchment -- pure lottery
