I am hoping you EDF mums and dads will once again be able to help me. I am launching a parents' forum at my workplace to support parents and promote an environment in which they can socialise and talk about all things children. I am looking for someone to speak at the forum's launch. I invited the mumsnet founders but have not heard back yet and that was always a bit of a long shot. Any ideas? I don't really have a budget so I am rideally looking for someone to come and speak for free - maybe an author promoting a new book for example. All ideas welcome. Thank you.

I would ask Gaby Hinsliff (ex political editor of Observer), got a book out on modern parenting and finding wrk-life harmony. The book is called Half a Husband and a really interesting read http://www.amazon.co.uk/Half-Wife-Working-Familys-Getting/dp/product-description/0701185988 She is on Twitter and seems to respond to people's questions etc

Also meant to be a great public speaker

      Family Photography

      By dianamaru · Posted

      Hello East Dulwich families 👋 I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I’m a professional family & wedding photographer with 14+ years of experience, and I split my time between the US and London throughout the year. I’ll be based in London for the coming weeks and would love to photograph more local families here in East Dulwich. My approach is very relaxed and natural — no stiff posing, no pressure — just real connection, movement, and the beautiful everyday moments that tell your family’s story. I work especially well with kids and parents who feel “awkward” in front of the camera (which honestly is most of us!). Sessions can take place at home, in the park, on your favourite street, or anywhere that feels meaningful to you. The goal is to create images that feel like your life — not a photoshoot. If anyone has been thinking about documenting this season with their children, I’d love to connect, answer questions, or simply share examples of my work. No pressure at all — just happy to be here and meet some neighbours. You can see my work here: https://bluesparkphotography.com/family/ (use the contact page on the site to send me a message if you're interested!).

      Be careful in local shops

      I don't! But I've also taken to calling myself David, as it seems to shorten the odds of achieving something in life. It's not King Dave, Dave Lloyd George, Dave Hockney, Dave Bowie or Dave Hasselhoff is it? And I'm not sure Michelangelo would have had such success if he'd called his sculpture 'Dave'.

      Where to recycle shoes & trainers please?

      By ed_pete · Posted

      I think there is still a shoes/clothes recycling bank outside of North Dulwich station.

      Southwark Waste and Recycling Guide

      I'm not so sure the collection team are that bothered anymore.  Two houses either side of me are rented and the tenants just chuck their rubbish - mostly bagged - in the blue or green bins depending on which has space in, not based on what it is.  The blue bins are always emptied.
