free bike maintenance with hands-on tuition May 21st


Recommended Posts

This two-hour session is a drop-in not a course. It runs from 6.30-8.30pm is at the Lettsom Tenants Hall at 114 Vestry Road SE5 8PQ. What gets taught depends on what problems you bring through the door. The idea is to fix what's wrong while showing you what needs to be done and why so that next time you can consider tackling it yourself.


The sessions are sponsored by Southwark Cyclists and the Lettsom Tenants and Residents Association. The volunteers come through Southwark Cyclists plus a professional mechanic to help with the more esoteric problems. The Lettsom provides the space at a cut rate. You don't need to join anything or live on the Lettsom to take part -- it's all free and open to all.


The only tricky bit can be finding the hall which is tucked away in the estate. The best verbal description I've beem given is uphill past the shops and down an alley on the left. There's a picture of the hall here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/free-bike-maintenance-with-hands-on-tuition-2/


Southwark Cyclists are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which works for safer cycling in London. Everything we do is free and open to all. You can follow us on Twitter @southwarkcycle or for more info on these sessions you can text me on 07842 640 207

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
