Fundraising talk: History of London's transport system - in memory of Charter pupil Ruby Fuller


ECJ

Recommended Posts

26 Feb, 6-8pm, Station Hall Herne Hill. Edmund Bird (heritage advisor to Transport for London) will take us on a fascinating dive into London's history in this 50 minute talk, focussing on how London's transport shaped the growth of our capital city.


The talk is being given in memory of 18 year old Ruby Fuller, a lifelong resident of Herne Hill, pupil (and head girl) at Charter North Dulwich, and a huge fan of the London Underground. Ruby dreamed of working for Transport for London one day, but half way through her A levels, she became poorly and was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of blood cancer. She died in May 2020, a few months after her 18th birthday.


You can book to attend in person (?10) or via Zoom (?5 - live or recorded).

    • I wonder how much the rebranding is costing in total?  Could the money be used in a better way ? 
    • It's not fair to hold Corbyn's brother's views against him when he has never explicitly or implicitly endorsed them. And he has enough of his own terrible positions to criticise anyway.
    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead? Sorry Alice but we'll have to disagree on this one. This does not sound like kids just being silly; lobbing water bombs at each other is one thing, but targeting complete strangers out for a walk and minding their own business and trying to kick their dog is, in my view, no laughing matter. A group of 15 teenagers can be intimidating, not to everyone but for some it can be, especially if their behaviour is aggressive.  
    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
