Hi there,


I know that there are concerts at chapel in Dulwich Village performed by the local schools, but was wondering if there was anything else in Sydenham, Kennington, Camberwell, Peckham, Penge, Crystal Palace?


Must be easy parking and wheelchair friendly.


Thanks in advance.

Would Greenwich be too far ?


St Alfeges

https://www.st-alfege.org/Groups/299337/Concerts_and_recitals.aspx

have lunch time concerts (free) every Thursday .Their accesibilty statement ( not sure if this covers the concerts ? ) says


"Parking

There is no public parking at St Alfege Church but it is possible for those requiring disability access to arrange a day permit via the office."

Parking


There is no public parking available in the churchyard but on street parking using meters is nearby. There are two public car parks nearby:

Burney Street SE10, 8EX

Cutty Sark Gardens, SE10 9HT



" Ramp access

There is currently a ramp which is steep to access the south entrance. Wheelchair users will need assistance. There are five steps at the main west entrance, so people using walking aids or pushing a buggy may find it easier to use the ramp. Please let the church welcomers or Open Church volunteers know to ensure the south door is open. "

I went to recent concert in Peckham ( old multi storey behind cinema/now The Levels ? ) and it was v good .There were some cars parked up there (and there is vehicular access via Cerise Rd )not gen public think suppliers to food drink outlets and for sound equipment )


You would need to ask about access says this on The Levels ( which I see is levels 1-6 and the concert was on higher levels ) website


" Parking:

There is very limited Pay and Display parking on the ground floor of the site (accessible from Cerise Road off Hanover Park). We strongly advise that you do not arrive by car if possible, but if necessary see Southwark Council?s website for more information on local parking options. This is a council owned carpark, Peckham Levels do not get free parking and cannot reserve spaces.


Step free access:

Step free access is available via the lifts from the ground floor and our helpful security will be able to assist should you experience any issues. You can reach them on 07961240465."

If you get on a bus running through Peckham in the late afternoon, the local youths with obnoxious manners will normally be putting on a free concert of dancehall music through their mobile phones. I will warn you though, it sounds awful.

    • I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan. 
    • And they started long before midnight!
    • First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .
    • The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
