Hi all, I went to St John's and St cleclements school and have fond memories of Father Charles. When I called the church to set a date for my wedding in November last year I was told he had "taken a step back from ministry" and when I called today to confirm was told he had passed away.


Does anyone know what happened? It is a great shame, he was a lovely man.

The previous thread on here about him was taken down by Admin. It would be good if this one mentioning the memorial service could be left up, so at least people who wanted to attend would know when it was. Or, if not, then a separate one regarding just the memorial service could be started.

What happened to Canon Richardson? He was "removed from Eclesiastical duties" for reasons unknown and then tragically took his own life yet no-one talks about it? A good friend of mine lives v near and all questions regarding property isues etc are being passed to the Diocese and there is no information forthcoming. Why?

Quote from the Mail article:


?We are all flawed human beings and it is helpful, no matter what the circumstances of a person?s life or death, for those who knew them to be able to pray for them.?


That will be a huge comfort to any victims of his. Fekkin church. In a world of it's own.

I only had a brief contact with the Rev but he obviously was loved by his parishioners. He also seemed to add much to our ED community. Maybe people should reflect more on the motives, exploitation of distress and morality of The Daily Mail before they start getting hysterical. There is something very sick about that rag and its sad readers.

    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…      
    • Nice that the drinks have started up again. I used to arrange them when they first started and I met some good friends through them. We used to get 30+ people going at one point. The karaoke night at The Wishing Well was very memorable!
    • Yes, absolutely! in comparison to now, you are 100% correct!
