Hello, Admin,

I'm a local knitwear designer living and working in East Dulwich. I recently posted a message with images advertising machine knitted scarves that I'm selling from my studio in SE22 and when I checked it later, it had been removed. I posted it again the next day and have just checked and once again it has been removed! Please can you let me know why? I've posted similar ads in the past and sold lots of my work via the forum. I've copied the post below as I'd kept a draft of it + also a copy of the message showing it has been deleted.

Thanks for your help.

Here is the message saying it has been deleted:-

that's strange as there are many other similar posts from small businesses, and I'm not sure what the difference is???!!?

Should I be advertising in the 'businesses section? I am a sole trader and not a big corporation.

Those ones you have mentioned got through the system but have now been removed.


I'm afraid you are a business, same as the individual builders, roofers, plumbers etc who are in the for ED Business section.

    • Thank you to everyone who has already shared their thoughts on this. Dawson Heights Estate in the 1980s, while not as infamous as some other estates, did have its share of anti-social behaviour and petty crime. My brother often used the estate as a shortcut when coming home from his girlfriend’s house, despite my parents warning him many times to avoid it. Policing during that era had a distinctly “tough on crime” approach. Teenagers, particularly those from working-class areas or minority communities, were routinely stopped, questioned, and in some cases, physically handled for minor infractions like loitering, skateboarding, or underage drinking. Respect for authority wasn’t just expected—it was demanded. Talking back to a police officer could escalate a situation very quickly, often with harsh consequences. This was a very different time. There were no body cameras, dash cams, or social media to hold anyone accountable or to provide a record of encounters. Policing was far more physical and immediate, with few technological safeguards to check officer behaviour. My brother wasn’t known to the police. He held a full-time job at the Army and Navy store in Lewisham and had recently been accepted into the army. Yet, on that night, he ran—not because he was guilty of anything—but because he knew exactly what would happen if he were caught on an estate late at night with a group of other boys. He was scared, and rightfully so.
    • I'm sure many people would look to see if someone needed help, and if so would do something about it, and at least phone the police if necessary if they didn't feel confident helping directly. At least I hope so. I'm sorry you don't feel safe, but surely ED isn't any less safe than most places. It's hardly a hotbed of crime, it's just that people don't post on here if nothing has happened! And before that, there were no highwaymen,  or any murders at all .... In what way exactly have we become "a soft apologetic society", whatever that means?
    • Unless you're 5 years old or have been living in a cave for several decades you can't be for real. I don't believe that you're genuinely confused by this, no one who has access to newspapers, the tv news, the internet would ask this. Either you're an infant, or have recently woken up from a coma after decades, or you're a supercilious tw*t
