Hi John


Whilst entertainment activities will be concentrated around Lordship Lane (EDT to The Lordship)and North Cross Rd, we will be contacting businesses in the wider area encouraging them to get involved and offer activities, refreshments, promotions and other incentives on the day to encourage the increased numbers of people out and about their way - all of these will appear on an event map and be publicised in the lead up and on the day via the event webpage, on Twitter using the event #hashtag and online forums like East Dulwich, West Dulwich, Herne Hill and local relevant Facebook Groups.


If you have thoughts about the day or would like to get involved then please do feel free to get in contact - my de details were in the initial post.


Regards

Dan

    • It was indeed in the vicinity of DKH. I live on the ED estate and I could tell it must be close by because of the noise. When I left my house this morning I found the culprits litter still in the middle of the st. It looked like they had lit a whole box on fire in the middle of the road. My cat jumped out of her skin. I’ll try and report it on Southwark website same as I have had to with other illegal use this week. Any other ideas for what we can do with the photos? Maybe one of the Southwark councillors. It’s outrageous and dangerous behaviour. 
    • Had another great meal there…. those that haven’t tried it, give it a go.. have a special lunch menu as well so you can get a flavour of the food. 
    • If you "cotton on" and read the council announcement, it clearly states "The library will be closed from 17 November until late June or early July 2026."  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/2025/dulwich-library-closing-refurbishment
    • I’ve been seeing Lisa at goose green clinic for energy work for a year now.  Lisa is kind, caring and hugely supportive. She is wonderfully masterful and trained as a reiki master for 20 plus years. Alongside other energy work.  My time spent with her is like therapy. An emotional safe space for deep conversations and reflection followed by relaxing and energising healing work.  each experience I’ve had has been different, the end result remains the same. Feel lighter, almost euphoric and almost float home. Definitely an experience not to be missed.  https://www.goosegreenclinic.net/therapies/healing-energy-work/
