It died a death. As it was principally run by one individual, who managed to get the bus route moved to a different street, once the individual in question relaxed, nobody else took over the drive.


Maybe you should take up the reins Marcus? But then a residents association is nothing without a cause.

I don't live in Melbourne Grove. And I wasn't involved in the previous incarnation. I also don't approve of residents associations unless they are set up for a reason. And I think this forum is a much easier way of discussing local issues.

We've checked on this and think that the Residents' Association you are referring to covers Tintagel Crescent, Jarvis Road, Derwent Grove, Elsie Road and 1-46 Melbourne Grove - ie the area bounded by East Dulwich Grove, Melbourne Grove (low numbers), and Derwent Grove/Tintagel Crescent.


They relaunched around February of this year. Tessa will contact the people who were behind it at the time and bring this thread to their attention.

There is, indeed, an active residents association - Vale Residents Association covering Melbourne Grove, Jarvis Road, Derwent Grove, Elsie Road and Tintagel Crescent - which canvassed every house in the neighbourhood had a very successful launch event in September at the Constitutional Club. We are addressing a number of local issues. The chair is Simon Blades of Elsie Road, vice-chair is Sandra Tait of Derwent Grove and the secretary is Trevor Gill of Melbourne Grove. For further information, please contact any of us. - Sandra Tait.

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
