Following the collection all items will go to these charities:

Should you have any questions about the collection please contact

Tori Reeve on [email protected] or join our facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/321067798322/


If you want to help, but cant make the 12-3 timeslots then please let us know, we may be able to call at your home at a time to suit, to pick up items.

Hi Catgirl


If you really cant make it, and no one else is going that you know, Im sure we could come and collect it from you, maybe tommorow? If you are happy with that please PM me somewhere to collect from.


To everyone else, today is our final collecting day, we have so far had 12 sacks full of items dropped into the pub on Friday, plus recieved several other donations over the weekend either at the pub or at volunteer homes. After today, we'll take stock of any items recieved plus any still to arrange collection for, and then start to package up the items into age appropriate bundles, which makes it much easier for the charties then to place with a suitabe family.


If you have promised a donation and havent heard from in the next day or so to collect please get in touch.

So sorry, I am not getting emails from the site when I get a new message for some reason.


There is parking right outside the pub, and all around it, no restrictions. Are you able to drop off or not? If yes, the pub are fine about hanging out to things for us for the next day or so.


Many thanks

Hello


My final post to the thread hopefully (dont want to clutter up the board) as we held the last general collection day yesterday and have started to process all of the lovely things people have given, (see a picture of just a few of our boxes ready for deserving charities) https://www.facebook.com/groups/321067798322/


Final call for anyone who wanted to get along to the pub and didnt, we have limited opportunities this week to do house calls to collect items, so please if you havent already, do get in touch with Tori [email protected] to let her know where you are and what you have. For some people with larger items we are endevoring to place them directly with the charities and get them to come along and collect from your door, this makes more sense as most have vans etc.


All the best and thank you all for the support you've given.


Shona

    • 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.      
    • Hi all Does anyone know someone who can make a window seat cushion and cover? See image of window seat. Thank you.
    • Don't know why but it seems like there have been impromptu fireworks since early September. At one point I even wondered if there was a shooting range or something like that over Dulwich Hamlet way- the direction where the firework sounds seem to be coming from? Is there some kind of new, fireworks craze going on and where are people getting them, out of season?
