Peckham Vision http://www.peckhamvision.org has a lot of experience of how local action can affect what happens in our neighbourhood. We are keen to share this in conversation with others locally. Regularly we do that on Saturday afternoons in our small shop unit in Holdrons Arcade, and at summer events. Also we open our studio in the Bussey Building sometimes for this. One opportunity is this weekend.


To anyone who is free in Peckham this weekend, Peckham Vision invite you to our Open Studio. Open from midday to 5pm, Saturday and Sunday, 7th & 8th December, next to the Pexmas market and the Bussey Winter fair in Copeland Gallery, Copeland Park. The entrance is through 133 Rye Lane. The studio is on 2nd floor on Stair C, yellow door in the Bussey passage.


Come for a chat and find out about how community action saved the Bussey Building, Copeland Park, Peckham Multi-Storey and much more. Also how all this relates directly to the climate emergency. Post your comments here on any of these topics after your visit. It woud be good to see a discussion here.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
