Your Dulwich WI needs you!


Hello EDF


Thank you for allowing me to post here.

My name is Suzanne James, and some may already have heard of me. I have a long established business - a catering company on Barry Road and much more recently, opened Fifty Seven, Restaurant + Bar on North Cross Road. I was born in SE22 and lived here all of my life!


I have just been re-elected as the VP at the Dulwich WI and I wanted to share my experience with you.


The Dulwich WI was set up three years ago when our president Sue Jarvie was unable to join the East Dulwich WI due to capacity. Wow. That was such a great position to be in and so we set about building another group in the area to compliment the first.


Three years on and here we are, on the cusp of lockdown lifting and a membership that is growing again! During this past year we have all struggled and especially us as a WI. Many have closed but somehow, we have managed to survive but not quite thrive! We lost a few members, had a couple pass away and some decide it was not quite right for them. All that said, our stead fast ladies that have been with us from the start, have asked if we are looking to recruit as they would like to make more friends in the local area. We listened and here I am posting!


Are you new to the area and looking to make new friends?

Are you looking to experience new activities?

Are you looking to just get out of the house and go somewhere safe where you can just relax?


Check out our website www.dulwichwi.com and find out more about us. We are a friendly group and would love you to meet us.


For the record:

We are very different in age, some are retired, some are working, some are new parents, some don't have to work! Some have a professional background, some play golf, some enjoy coffee mornings, some enjoy the book club, some are members and we hardly see them!


We meet on the 2nd Monday of each month and if you would like to know more then please do get in touch through the website.


Your Dulwich WI needs you too!


Thank you for taking the time to read


Suzanne

We have now had a few more ladies join the group now and it is wonderful to meet new people.


If you are keen to know more or just pop along to meet us and see what you think then please do get in touch via email at [email protected]


(its terribly difficult and perhaps even daunting to go into a group of people when you are alone but please do not be concerned. We are such a friendly group and do everything we can to make you feel comfortable and very welcome)


Get it touch if you are looking to make friends

      The Telegraph and the other right wing media, do they hate Britain?

      By HeadNun · Posted

      It doesn't matter what channel it was on, how pernicious the subject is and when it happened. Mis-representing the truth in broadcast is not only morally wrong, it's against the OFCOM code of ethics.  Everyone in the industry is trained in how not to do it, most are made to take the BBC's own 'Safeguarding the Trust' course, even if they aren't making BBC programmes.  There wasn't much fuss at the time, because no one knew about it.  "Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings". What the programme makers personally think or feel should never affect how they tell a story; to do so is deeply unprofessional and a sackable offence.  It's the job of the BBC and of all programming to inform viewers of the facts and let them make up their own minds. Even in campaigning documentaries.

      Hadn't realised that the Panorama programme that people are up in arms about was over a year ago.  There wasn't much fuss at the time so why drag it up.  Unless you hate Britain, hate liberals, hate the BBC, want a divided country, support the most powerful person in the world despite his many failings. The programme was clumsy, but the vast majority of us know that Trump had an influence.  So the Telegraph has played into his hands.

      One of our local councillors has hit the big time

      I tried a Lime bike once, too heavy and bulky for me but I understand that many really like them.  And very much support the concept.
