Hi peckham_ryu

Can you come to our community meeting to discuss the Council's recommendations for all day controls throughout 'Peckham West' CPZ. The meeting is on Saturday 4th May 2pm in Amott Road Baptist church hall (near Adys Rd end of Amott Road).


It would be really helpful if we could hear from your experience in Chadwick Rd of the CPZ with just 2 hours restriction. Roads currently swamped with all day parking might be reassured that partial controls can work.

An update on this: There is a follow up meeting on Thursday 23rd May 6-8pm in the Amott Road Baptist Church. Council Officers in charge of the CPZ proposal will be present to answer a number of questions we have collected that local residents have about the way the CPZ process operates. The aim is to clarify all ambiguities and find out how it works in practice and how that deals with the varied parking issues in the streets affected.


A poster is attached. If you live in the streets covered by this CPZ and want to come to the meeting please register on eventbrite - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/peckham-west-cpz-tickets-62000096959 - so we have an idea how many are coming. That also gives you more info. If you are not on the mailing list for this please email [email protected] and give your street address and name.

      Venue hire suggestions

      By Pugwash · Posted

      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.

      Thank you to who ever keeps the forum going

      By beansprout · Posted

      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.

      Fireworks

      By first mate · Posted

      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?
