Hello,

We are organising a fabulous charity event in the spring of 2016 and we are looking for 5 local children's charities to get involved and support. We want all proceeds to go to these local children's charities.


Please can you help us by nominating a charity, telling us a bit more about them and your involvement and as to why we should consider them? It must be local and it must support children and their families. (We are not looking to enagage with the larger ones).


This unique ED / Dulwich / Peckham / Nunhead community fundraising event is going to take place in the spring of 2016 and it involves an outdoor activity for both children and parents.


Many Thanks in Advance,


The Little Disco Company

A third vote for Dog Kennel Hill Adventure Playground. It's a fantastic resource for local children and also appeals to teens, providing various classes like pottery, music making/editing plus table tennis, computer use - all for free. They are fundraising for a new building. See more information here: http://www.dkhap.org.uk/assets/dkhap.pdf

    • I’m not sure home delivery will replace physical supermarkets. I got the impression that they’re generally loss- making for the retailers and they’d much prefer to encourage customers back to the shops. I read somewhere that the typical Ocado order was around £100 but costs Ocado £120 to fulfill. It works for M&S because they have roped Ocado into a contract where Ocado carry the bulk of the loss.
    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed.
