Recommended Posts

Hi. My 84 yo father has just moved to ED. Is there any info on local activities/clubs he might get involved in? He was very active in his Men's Shed in Ireland and will try the ones in Peckham and Penge but if folk know of anything similar or just fun activities for older folk please let me know.


He's reasonably active, a bit forgetful and very sociable/good company. ex engineer.

Hi Longfield Hall is a bus ride from East Dulwich but we offer a range of free fitness activities for older people plus a Thursday morning free singing group. See the timetable on our website at www.longfieldhall.org.uk

The Remakery round the corner also has current funding of mens DIY activities.

    • You're forgetting that the Labour Administration under Blair - while not directly responsible for privatisation - actually reinforced the privatisation by changing their licences and basically cementing the agreement, ignoring warnings, failing to return the industry to the public sector, and there were in fact tenuous links of the Labour Administration to the private profit making sector. It's like saying the bathroom flooded because Thatcher turned the tap on - but not mentioning that Blair put the plug in and turned the tap on full    
    • I'm a review writer & am testing out gas BBQs this month, so in need of a 15kg propane bottle. Happy to return within the month if needed! 
    • Currently has some availability for local handyman jobs. 
    • It's taken time to see the legacy of Thatcher's free market policy but we're really seeing it now with utilities, housing and infrastructure 😢.  I think I've remembered correctly that on Dirty Business they said we are the only country in the world to have our water supply totally privately owned.   When it gets taken back into public ownership the private owners will rub their hands together with glee having withdrawn massive profits and bonuses over the last 30 + years, let the infrastructure go to pot and now have the taxpayer come back in after this long period of neglect and pay for the failing systems to be rebuilt.  If you think those companies will suffer at the hands of government then you have more faith than I.  Thatcherism has a lot to answer for ☹️
