The Pie House Co-op Deptford Emergency Crisis - Needs YOUR Help.

This not-for-profit, worker-run, wheelchair accessible music and arts venue at 213-214 Edward Place SE8 5HD

THE CRISIS: From Liv, Grace & Sonia, On Friday 31st October, there was a flash flood in Deptford, and we found ourselves with water pouring in through the lighting fixtures, damaging our electrics and sound system.

We have been forced to close for one of the busiest weekends of the year, losing thousands of pounds in income, and are now having to fight our landlords for support with the leak.

We are asking all our allies for support as we try and reignite the crowdfunder to reflect the new expensive work that needs to take place, and the gear we need to replace.

Thank you in advance for your support so far, and your support going forward. If you have any ideas with getting media attention, or fundraising - please get in touch on

Even if you like myself have not previously visited this venue, supporting small not for profit venues are vital to the life blood of what 'commmunity' is all about.

THANK YOU.

Very sorry to hear this, but surely the landlord is responsible for fixing the electrics? 

Surely they must be insured for things like this?

I hope you get it all sorted out quickly.

Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
