Dulwich Picture Gallery has recently become aware a scammer who has been operating in the local area mascaraing as a Gallery member of staff. On 8th August a resident on Turney Road was called on by a man claiming to work at the Gallery called ?Jack?. Jack asked her for money, ?60-70 for a taxi to Essex, claiming that his pregnant wife was about to give birth. The resident was told that the money would be paid back to her, that the gallery would ensure it, and that she would get a bottle of wine for her troubles. Fortunately the resident was wise enough to not give him any money and the incident was reported to the police.


The man was white, medium build and height. Short brown hair and in his early 40s.

      LOST CAT - Cookie

      By hshera01 · Posted

      Hello everyone, We have lost our wonderful moggie, Cookie.  She's been missing for over a week now and was lost around the back of our house on rail track land around Croxted Road/Turney Road junction. Please do keep an eye out for her and if you see her please let us know urgently as she isn't familiar with the area at all, we are very worried.  She has a microchip (with my brother's contact details) She's black with ginger/brown markings, very distinctive. If you have had sightings of her or seen her at anytime please let do let me know, Henna 07941 047094 If you could post on your local/street groups too, I'd be very grateful. Thank you!

      Police Officers aren't permitted to strike, so why are all the other emergency services allowed to?
