Just want people to be aware out there, I was walking home by the Gowlett on Amott Road when I was attacked by two guys with hoods. Tried to run away though they chased me down and kicked me in the face and chest. Please be careful out there as they are looking for people with phones, wallets, etc..
Bear in mind that slightly better off places by no means guarantee that crime won't happen. Muggers seek opportunities where they think they will get the best results, unfortunately. Definitely report it to the police, I have personal experience of them using crime stats to change the operational organisation of policing when problems arise,

Really sorry to hear about this, we live opposite the Gowlett but didn't hear anything. What did they look like? Have you asked Jonny if he has anything on his cctv?


However Dulwichfox and Louisa to claim that Amott Road and environs is to be avoided, or even that this was the case 5 years ago, is patent nonsense. Your biggest danger is being offended by shouty rugger buggers.

Hi Tommy


I was drinking in the gowlett on Thursday night. Left at around 1 and walked down amott, adys then ondine. There were a group of 4-5 guys hanging around the school on adys road. I passed then at about 20m and was drunk so could not recognise them by sight but one definitely wore a white hoodie. If you reported it and please do then maybe there are some cameras around the school which might get some decent images. I don't presume they're involved but its possible.

Muggers will always come to nicer places as they think the people living there must have better stuff to take, they also assume that the people who live in these areas have a naivety to this type of thing and will therefore be a lot easier to mug and get away with it...


Sadly I have lived here all my life and know a lot of people who have had this terrible experience, I think the best and hardest thing to do is to stand up for yourself and not be put off going anywhere just because your worried about bumping into one of these muppets! :)

    • Just wanted to let you all know that Dulwich Antiques is serving free takeaway coffee (Old Spike), tea and hot chocolate all day every Sunday. We’re open today till 5pm.  Dulwich Antiques, 3 Upland Road. Hopefully see you there! Rachel & Conrad 
    • But is it the Village councillors who are maintaining the board, or someone else? When the boards in East Dulwich were installed, it wasn't the councillors who kept the information up to date, it was Monica from Health Matters, who was greatly involved in various  community matters (eg the building of the community garden at what was then Dulwich Hospital). I can't remember if it was her who initiated the installation of the boards in the first place. She no longer lives in East Dulwich, and nobody else appears to be willing to liaise with the councillors and community related organisations  to take this on for the various East Dulwich boards.  It would hardly take much effort. Basic information doesn't frequently change (and no, I'm not volunteering. I am overstretched as it is). It's all very well to  get a physical  community notice board spruced up, but not much use if it then isn't being used for its intended purpose. And I can't see that it is part of a councillor's job to update notice boards which they didn't initiate in the first place. I'm sure they have more than enough to do.  The notice boards serve (or did do) a useful service, but all the information which could be put on them is surely available elsewhere. (Unless it is bringing to people's attention things which are of use/interest to them and they weren't aware they needed/would like, or didn't know how else to find the information). ETA: Oh. I've just read the beginning of this thread. I'd forgotten how it started. It's gone well off topic, hasn't it. Probably just as well, reading the OP.
    • The board in the Village (just near the pub) is in pristine condition, full of council-related information (though someone had stuck a flyer on the glass, now removed). Maybe the councillors there actually CBA to make use of a facility that took time, effort and taxpayers’ money to instal?
