The tyre on the small front wheels of our wheelchair have split so we cannot use. Have been trying to find someone/firm to repair this. Most of the mobility shops seem to sell scooters rather than chairs. It is a non NHS chair, old but in otherwise reasonable condition. It is an 'emergency use' chair and has been used by family members with reduced outdoor mobility. It also folds up well to put into boot of car.

At the worse possible scenario will have to purchase a new one but will have to try out to ensure it fits in boot.

Have found one place in Hertfordshire who do repairs but they require over ?70 just to visit without labour and parts charges.

Have borrowed a wheelchair for a few days but it is not 'car friendly'.

  I would'nt go locally I'd go to Maria Tash in Liberty..it'll be more expensive but they will do a good job and its their buisness not a 'sideline' to other beauty offerings. https://www.mariatash.com/store-locations/maria-tash-london-liberty?srsltid=AfmBOoqMz7Ev-4YqzrlkePX0n3i5JbiggGYSR9kU5z1p_ajP_jjQKqlt I have no experience of piercing at Polished but I went in to enquire about a manicure and I found the staff attitude pretty rude, looking me up and down when I walked in and just giving off a bad attitude like they just could'nt be bothered maybe because I'm not a glam 30 something? I dont know.

  Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone here buys Bonne Maman jam? I’d love to upcycle the empty jars if you're planning to throw them out. I'm hoping to make my own jam and would really appreciate using those cute jars for it. Thanks

  There's been a pub/inn (The Green Man) on that site for hundreds of years. Shown on Rocques map 1746. A mixed redevelopment pub/affordable residential/commercial maybe some lower cost offices/studios would help refresh this area. Skatepark must stay surely. Looks a lot of fun. and much needed on the area. There has to be a pub of some sort. The rationalisation of the pedestrian crossing is long overdue (it used to be a Zebra crossing years ago) and much welcomed. Hopefully this could encourage greater use of Cox's Walk and the woods. If we had somewhere to eat and drink at the end of a walk through the woods. Or for those old enough who have used the skatepark, it could be an attraction again. The Dulwich Estate need to get off their obsession with corporate tenants (although to be fair they have allowed some independent commercial tenants into some of the smaller premises) and get a smaller, more agile, pub operator in there.
