Love West Dulwich Needs You!


Love West Dulwich is an alliance of West Dulwich businesses and residents working together to put this fab corner of Dulwich on the map. You can find out more about Love West Dulwich at www.facebook.com/lovewestdulwich or on twitter @lovewestdulwich.


Following the success of our launch event and Christmas Fair, we are now starting to plan our Spring Fair on Saturday 16 May.


Forming part of the fantastic Dulwich Festival, the Love West Dulwich Spring Fair promises to be bigger and better then our previous events.


We would love to get more people involved, after all many hands make light work! If you share a desire to put West Dulwich on the map and can offer time/skills/ideas then we would love for you to jump onboard.

We are meeting at 6pm on Tuesday 20th January at The Rosendale pub for a chance to get to know each other and have a brainstorming session - pulling together ideas for the event, gauging what skill sets we have amongst us, and allocating initial tasks and roles. It will be very informal, but a vital first step towards making the next event even more successful than last.


Also, from Wednesday 21st January we will recommence our Love West Dulwich Wednesday morning meetings. The meetings take place at the Volcano Coffee Shop (situated within the Park Hall Trading Estate, 40 Martell Road, SE21 8EN). Obviously, not everyone can make it every week, but these meetings have proved a useful way to keep each other in touch with what we are all doing for Love West Dulwich. They start at 9.15 and we aim to finish by 10.00. You are all very warmly invited to attend as and when you can.


I really hope you?ll all be able to join us for a drink on Tuesday, but if not, then see you at a meeting soon!


Many thanks

Dan

Even if that were true, how is that relevant - the fact is that West Dulwich has an event and it would be lovely and neighbourly to get some support and input from ED businesses and residents....

    • Thanks TWB, that is all really useful. However, if  memory serves, The Fox Project actually directed me to The Fox Angels when I phoned them, and had no facilities in this area for sending anybody out themselves. They seem to be based in Tunbridge Wells. The Greenwich Wildlife Network also just suggests other organisations who may help in certain situations. To the best of my knowledge, however, for situations involving foxes, including injured or ill  foxes, Fox Angels are the only people who have someone available very locally who can come out virtually immediately (I waited maybe half an hour after I phoned them). The person who came had all the necessary equipment to move the fox, was very gentle and caring, and took the fox to a local vet (it sadly died). It's possible that if you phoned a local vet they would help, if you could get the fox there. The RSPCA has guidelines on what to do if you find an  animal in need,  however although they have recently had a campaign on this (and sent me a badge and a copy of the guidelines on a pocket sized card) I can't find them online. I attach a photo. Don't know if the QR code would work from a photo.    
    • My mum (91 years young!) well remembers going to Austin's as a child, which she described as an 'Aladdin's Cave'!  She absolutely loved it - and is still a shopping fiend to this day (I 'blame' Austin's 😉). Going back up Peckham Rye, passing Austin's on your right hand-side, just past Phillips Walk (so not far from Austin's at all), I believe there was a British Relay Wireless shop - this would have been in the late 1930s/early 1940s.  Does anyone know anything about this? My grandad (my mum's dad) used to manage it; it was severely damaged in The Blitz - but I am having trouble locating it.  Mum's memory is dim (she was 6 at the time); she originally thought it was in Rye Lane, but we think now it was in Peckham Rye just up from Phillips Walk (originally Phillips Road). 
    • Thanks everyone, this will need to be reported again as the fox was still mobile and walking down the road when last seen... hopefully someone will spot and report.
