hallo,

Do you have a suitcase for a student going to Ghana to teach sports?

Taking a parachute, cones, mini hurdles, batons and dodge balls and a pump, then leaving it there for the school

If I could have any old suitcase please it would be amazing!

Thank you

Dear all,  Due to the kind offers and pro active forum, a suitcase was donated, which enabled absolutely tons of new equipment to be taken to three schools in the Keta /Woe area of the south coast of Ghana. Predominately a fishing economy, a group of Charter students delivered literacy and sports sessions.

As a legacy, we were able to use the suitcase to donate: mini hurdles, relay batons, bean bags, parachute with balls, 3 footballs, one volley ball, one dodge ball ( a pump and needle!) a parachute with 16 play balls,  two short tennis racquets and 8 tennis balls, a set of resource game ideas resource cards. As well as some sanitary and stationery items.

These sports items were demonstrated over the week in collaboration with the ideas of local teachers then left as a lasting resource also used by a local orphanage on visits to the schools.  Without the offers, it would have just been a few beanbags. The case on request was left with the school as a storage item.  thank you again for the kind offers and enabling of this project!!

    • Planning permission for the new Tesco Express on the old Poundland site, on Lordship Lane has now been granted. It was granted on the 14th October.  Tesco’s will have an ATM, which we need in East Dulwich. 
    • So for the vast, vast majority of people their internet is access via wires (or fibre) supplied by openreach, virgin or one of the smaller providers like community fibre so there is a physical medium involved. However you can buy off-the-shelf 5G Routers that have a SIM card slot.  Put a 5G SIM card in it and you can then access the internet from your home devices via 5G.  Imagine hot-spotting your phone and sharing it.  Effectively that's what your doing. Rather than buy one, 3 (and I think EE) allow you to take out a contract for a 5G SIM and the router for around £20-25 a month. Speeds won't be as fast but I get around 80 gig bits download speed and it holds up fine for us. Thus the mobile providers gain a foothold in the "broadband" market. 3 offer a no-quibble 30 day guarantee so you can try it out and if you find your signal isn't strong or reliable enough you can take it back for no charge.
    • Me too, now and then it would be down to the exchange and an issue there.  Comparing what I have had done in the last 15 or so years with them, friends have had more issues with Sky, Virgin etc than I have ever had!  I moved to fibre a while ago with them, and, 'touchwood', everything has been great.  
    • Very happy to give another recommendation for Dave - he did a super job on our bedroom recently fitting underlay and carpet. Really great finish and very reasonably priced plus a lovely guy!
