Hi


Has anyone on the 50-60 age bracket, without underlying medical conditions been contacted as yet?


Several friends who are with Herne Hill Practice have already had theirs but we have heard nothing, I don't want to call as they are so busy, but equally they are not the best in terms of service, so don't want to be missed either.


Thank you

Perhaps people with ongoing conditions and/or had treatment at a hospital are contacted by that specialist department? It's highlighted again the lack of a central database for all NHS patients. Imagine if there were a way of punching in your NHS No. and finding all your treatments, diagnoses, etc. (even dental). Hell of a task but I think it would save time and money in the long run.

Those who are booking appointments via the NHS website should be offered Rosendale Road as their first option.


I was speaking to a friend over 60 who had his at Rosendale Road, but his older sister had hers at TJC via the GP.

If they know their NHS number, they can add it to the NHS booking website and book straight away if they haven't received their letter.

You don't need to know your NHS number to book on the website. Anyone aged 56 upwards is invited to book now, you can book both appointments at the same time. It's a doddle and very quick.


I booked mine several days ago and received a letter today inviting me to book. Bit of a waste of resources but as nothing compared to the terrible amount of waste associated with the pandemic so far.

These people got letters from DMC today !

DMC contacted me in January via text to ask whether I wanted the vaccine, saying that they?d be in touch once an appt was available. subsequently I got an appt in Kings. I don?t know whether DMC passed my details on to Kings, but the Kings message did not seem connected to the DMC invite.


If DMC/kings invites are not connected, I haven?t heard from DMC since.

306 Medical Centre contacted my mother AFTER she got the letter from the NHS. So she ended up booking via the website.

    • This thread brings back hazy memories from the early to mid-90s of a wine shop / off licence off Lordship Lane run by a bibulous chap who specialised in East European wines. It wasn't on a parade of shops but was on maybe Whateley Rd – or possibly Goodrich?? I used to walk past it when heading home from work and would drop in for a cheap bottle of Hungarian plonk. Someone tell me I'm not dreaming this... 🙂
    • The river Peck is partly underground if you live near the park and on its route
    • I have spent many years pondering the state of dampness in my basement and had composed a long and rather boring reponse. Have reduced it to bullet points: The cause of damp on the common wall with my neighbour was found to be caused by a slow leak their side which they were unaware of. Leak was repaired and dampness subsided. An experienced drainage man told me there are no underground rivers in East Dulwich My damp patches come and go and are more prevalent in summer when the humidity is high and barely there during the winter. I was considering getting a dehumidifier until I read they can suck the water out of walls/floor and make the problem worse.  
    • Thank you all for your input- we had the children with their mother for a few days. individually the children went out - one  to the theatre and Camden Market and Horniman's. The other to the transport museum and Leicester Square (could not get in to the Lego place so went into M & M place) also Dulwich Park with his Aunty and cousin. My daughter is a special needs teacher in Sussex and even though schools have closed, she had  to work 2 days (INSET Days)  one day she had a 3 hour zoom call with her colleagues as could not find a child minder, so worked from home, the next day the 9 year old spent the day with friends so she could go to work. At least with us she could get some respite from child care. After much negotiation, their father in Liverpool  has managed to get some leave from his new job for 2 weeks. My daughter will drive them to Oxford where Dad will pick up. This gives my daughter a few days  without children to catch up with various friends in the Midland's and Yorkshire. I will search the science school link as above as there maybe something in the October or February Half Terms which we could enrol the 9 year old in. We try to support our 3 daughters with child care but most of the grandchildren are grown up which leaves us with 9,11 and 15 year olds. We have not been asked to look after the 6 year and 3 year old great grandchildren - !!! We are firm believers that grandparents should be active in their grandchildren's lives and offer support where they can. I looked after my eldest granddaughter when she was a baby and toddler one day a week so my daughter could work. My granddaughter is now 26 and we are very close as she is the only one living in London. The others are scattered around Kent, Sussex and Essex.
