Thanks BrandNewGuy


I'm pleased to see them engaging with the community but surprised at the timing of the meeting - finishing at 7.30pm on a Tuesday is not of great help to those who work and commute. I've sent the email below pointing this out and hope to see a positive response.


Dear Sirs


I've just seen notice of the planning consultation meeting for the Dulwich Hospital Site to be help 4.30pm to 7.30pm 22 March.


I live on Melbourne Grove backing on to the site. Myself and many other road residents attended the planning consultation meeting for the new school on the site and whilst there saw many other local residents in attendance. These meetings were held both on multiple days and also at more work friendly hours (they finished at 9pm) to engage better with the local community.


I note that plans are to be available after the meeting in the hospital but the meeting is more important for engagement, rather than information, due to being able to discuss the plans with and ask questions of your representatives.


I would be grateful if you could please consider extending the timing of your proposed meeting to make it more accessible to the local community.

I like the kind of buildings the architects have designed. http://fcbstudios.com/ I just hope that they are given a free hand and aren't having to work with the existing hospital. It would be great to see an inspirational building, designed for teaching and learning in the 21st century.

A school -- and the Green Dale playing fields within a five-minute walk IF the tunnel beneath the railway line is re-opened (and widened, and brightly lit, and CCTV-monitored, and fitted with call-alarm boxes...).


The St Francis estate, where I live (Abbotswood Road and its tributaries), would see more walkers and bicyclists if that tunnel were re-opened for students; and why shouldn't it be accessible to the rest of us? Another route to Sainsbury's, to DHFC... Not a bad thing.

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
