Hi,


Does anyone know what's happening at the DCC?


Seems to have a few young adults in and out of there on a regular basis, yesterday they were sat out the front drinking, not that I'm against drinking, just interested to know what's happening to it.

The DCC closed last September. As far as I knew it was going to be put up for sale. Not a very helpful reply to your question, sorry.

If anyone does have any information as to it's present situation I'd be very interested. My choir used to hold our rehearsals there but had to move when they closed. We were at the Palmerston till lockdown started, if, and I know it's a huge if, we can start rehearsing again we may need to find a bigger venue cause of social distancing. The DCC would be ideal !!

I noticed yesterday signage that it is occupied by tenants through one of the guardianship schemes, I think the sign was Lowe though I haven?t heard of this one. This suggests that the building is either already sold or the owners are waiting for to sell it.


While guardianship schemes can offer ?affordable? housing for those able to be more mobile, the tenants have so few rights (indeed, they know this from the outset), and it is a means through which developers are able to sit on land/projects e.g. wait for the land to appreciate in value while preventing it from being squatted in the traditional sense, or perhaps hold firm over projects that might have been rebutted or rejected by council until the ball is in their court. While I have friends who do or have lived as guardians, I?m sceptical about the good of them as they are a structure which protects/serves developers while boasting an outward appearance of providing a service to renters/tenants.

I was sufficiently curious to look it up on the land registry. It was sold in March 2020 to what looks to be a developer. I haven?t seen a planning application on Southwark?s website, so I suspect they might be biding their time. It?s a huge plot, but (unless I?m mistaken), the building is listed, which may have a bearing on what they can do to it.

      Hello all, My name is Nia and I am a private chef. I successfully completed my initial training at Le Corden Bleu London, to secure a position at Pied a Terre restaurant, Fitzrovia, followed by 3 Michelin Star restaurant Core by Clare Smyth. I have since been working as a full time private chef for a family in Hampstead, and am on to the next venture! I am now starting my own meal preparation service, whereby I source high quality ingredients to prepare meals from your home, leaving a clean kitchen and delicious meals ready to reheat for the coming days. This is a great alternative for those who want delicious, fresh, nutritious meals throughout the week, without the hassle of shopping, chopping, preparing and cooking daily!  If this is something of interest, please send me a message to arrange a telephone consultation to discuss dietary requirements and food preferences and a quote. Best,  Nia  07908549938 [email protected]   ‘My partner and I have had the pleasure of having Nia in our home where she has excelled herself as a private chef.

      Lost rug

      By Gizmo · Posted

      Hiya, has anyone picked up a rug from a front garden on Heber road opposite the school around 9am last week. It was hanging on a rail it has a lot of sentimental value and wasn’t being discarded of. Would be very happy to see it come home. If anyone has any information please send a message it was a brownish colour.

      Election Time - 2024

      Surely you'd have to have been living under a rock for the last four years not to know that Starmer's father was a toolmaker. It's so tired and reeks of desperation. If he had any dynamism or big ideas, he wouldn't have to fall back on it time and time again.  Having said that, I do completely understand that big ideas are nigh impossible when he's going to be inheriting problems that are, frankly, beyond any government's ability to fix. Or fix any time soon.

      Problems finding Delmosart in pharmacies

      By Sue · Posted

      You have my complete sympathy. In my case, I discovered you can't even go to an eye emergency clinic any more. You have to phone round opticians on a list who are part of a scheme. The only one in East Dulwich who was part of the scheme had a six week waiting list. That isn't very helpful when you are in danger of going blind. I was lucky that another East Dulwich optician told me to try one in Crofton Park, who was able to see me that day. They told me it was good that the ulcer had been caught early. Hollow laugh. It was three days and a long long saga  before I could get the eye drops. Ironically, I paid for a private prescription rather than the optician sending it to my GP to prescribe because I thought it would be quicker 😭 And then I couldn't get the effing drops anywhere anyway.
