This concerns me as it essentially disregards the significant number of people who do experience a high level of disruption because of the event. While it's great that you personally are not inconvenienced, this is absolutely not the case for a great many residents many of whom are elderly or who do not have private gardens and rely on the park. Great that you have a PHD in ecology but might also be worth reading the report into the environmental impact of Gala which paints a rather different story to yours. This comes round every year with a request to extend. This seems to me to be a distraction to steer everyone away from the main event. However, Southwark Council and Councillor Catherine Rose in particular must bear responsibility for what is effectively privatisation of our community space. I requested data on the results of the last consultations and had to use a subject access request to get it. In 2024 the council received 111 responses of which 108 were negative. The event went ahead. Last year they received 136 of which 82 were negative and 34 said only with major changes (which did not happen). The impact of the event on the community and the enviroment is well-documented. The council has so far refused to supply data on the demographics of the attendees but it doesn't take much to work out that this is largely single under 30s from out of borough judging by the steady stream of people from the station. Please do take time to protest and also to email Events as we try to hold the council accountable for their disregard of the public consultation results. Appendix 1.pdf 2025 consultation.pdf -

I'd like to recommend Marius who recently built bespoke alcove cabinets and bookshelves for me at a very reasonable price. All was done quickly, the units are fitted perfectly and he tidied up after himself everyday. Marius: 07459 195 564
