Just to make people aware!! Broad daylight burglary has happened to property backing on to Camberwell Old Cemetery at the beginning of this month. Due to holes in fences and back gates opening easily intruders have managed to jump in to gardens..by getting through cemetery fencing, enter our property and burgle many expensive and personal belongings! Jumping between gardens once gaining access from the cemetery!! This happened whilst family was at home!! Please be aware of this. I also have seen two disreputable looking men on the green looking in to backs of houses who scuttled off once I appeared!! Worrying also is hearing from neighbours and from the police that there has been a increase in local burglarys recently!! The fences at the back of the cemetery need to be secured properly so that we are kept safe as many residents are at risk!! Hope this helps to save others from the distress and fear we have endured as a result of this horrible crime!!
Very worrying indeed at the fact that there has been a increase in local burglarys recently. I hope the forum can continue to be put to this kind of good use- raising awareness in the hope to prevent such terrible events happening to others

Hi Asus and Annie,

I am aware of this as I spoke to the resident who was burgled last week. AS a result, I have subsequently discussed this horrible occurrence with senior cemetery staff. There has been a site visit to look at the access to the back of properties from the cemetery and how security can be improved, to reduce the risk of such events happening in the future.

I believe the police said they had dealt with 10 in the area that day.

At last night Dulwich Community Council the Police reported during September 22 burglaries in College ward and 20 burglaries in East Dulwich ward.


We have FREE property marking kits for homes in East Dulwich ward. They dramaitcally reduce the chance of being burgled. Email me if you'd like one.

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
