PUTTING ALL INFO INTO ONE THREAD TO TRY TO HELP.


BELOW IN CAPITALS ONLY SO IT STANDS OUT - NOT SHOUTING!!


PLEASE BE AWARE THAT SOME OF THE SUPPLIERS ARE STRUGGLING A BIT AT THE ORDER TAKING END - THE SUPPLIES ARE THERE, BUT THE VOLUME OF CALLS IS A LITTLE OVERWHELMING AS THEY ARE ADJUSTING TO SUPPLYING TO THE PUBLIC NOT TRADE. PLEASE ONLY CALL NOW IF YOU URGENTLY NEED A DELIVERY. THEY ARE NOT TAKING ORDERS FOR WEEKS AHEAD, ONLY FOR DELIVERY AS NEEDED.


THEY DON'T GET THEIR FOOD FROM THE SAME PLACES AS THE SUPERMARKETS, THEY HAVE THIER OWN, SOLID SUPPLY CHAIN SO PLEASE DON'T WORRY, THERE IS PLENTY TO GO AROUND IF WE ARE ALL SENSIBLE. THEY CAN ONLY DO HOME DELIVERY, NOT COLLECTION. REMEMBER THEY WERE SET UP TO SUPPLY RESTAURANTS AND CATERERS UNTIL A FEW DAYS AGO, SO ARE HAVING TO ADJUST TO NEW WORKING SYSTEMS.



Our trade suppliers for bakery, fruit, veg, dairy & fish have turned to us for help. With their usual customers (restaurants etc.) all shut, they have food that is going to go to waste?. They have asked us to connect them to the community, and are offering box schemes in the short term to ensure they continue to trade and to keep people fed (without having to face the horrific situation at the supermarkets). They will deliver this to your door (depending on location, but certainly in the East Dulwich area ? apologies to some of you if you?re too far away, but you may find other local companies doing similar if you can search for them, so it may still be useful info).


Their food is of excellent quality, and there is plenty of it. We hope very much it will make your life easier and remove some of the stress from the current situation.


Attached and also below is information for you.


These guys are incredibly thankful for your support, you are as much their lifeline as they may be yours.


Also ? if you need some inspiration on what to cook, Suzanne is doing daily Cupboard Cookery Classes on Instagram (via Instagram TV) ? follow her on https://www.instagram.com/eastdulwichchef/


This is a mix of showing people some basic cookery methods/skills for those who need it - PARENTS - you can use this as part of home schooling too!


Plus easy recipes based on what you might have in ? you can even tell her what is in your cupboard and she will try to come up with a recipe.



We are sending you all our very best wishes, and looking forward to getting back to normal very soon?.. we will get through this?? together.


Take care, all of us at Suzanne James Catering & Events

Admin - as this directly supports those 'suffering' from Covid-19 issues - and this set-up will presumably have a short-ish shelf life - not 'business' we hope with any legs past July (fingers crossed symbol) I think it fits here, where people are looking for help, support advice etc. through this emergency. Clearly it is business, but not I hope as we know it, long term.

NOTHING BEING THROWN OUT AS NOW ALL FOOD IS BEING DISTRIBUTED TO THE PUBLIC - WE ACTED FAST ENOUGH.


ADMIN, THIS THREAD IS TO HELP EVERYONE DURING THE COVID-10 PANDEMIC, CAN IT NOT STAY IN THAT AREA PLEASE?


WE ARE SIMPLY TRYING TO GET SUPPLIES OUT TO PEOPLE.

Hi there


Smith & Brock have had to change the email address not to


[email protected] to enable them to keep up with the demand.


Thank you all so much for supporting this incredible family business that has supplied me for years. This means they should be in business when we ?return to normal?


❤️

    • on a practical level found here these have very positive feedback:   Danny - 07943 673482 joeast 12/09/23 Just had my roof replaced by Danny (mobile 07943 673482) who I would highly recommend. He is honest, clean, reliable and explained the work and sent photos as the work progressed. His initial estimate for costs was detailed and close to the actual price of the job. jamondo 07/12/24 Another recommendation for Danny here!  After carrying out extensive work on our property in 2018, we have constantly had problems  with the newly built roof.  Then followed numerous fixes and bodges by the builders then by other so called 'experts' and professionals' charging extortionate amounts and / or giving guarantees that amounted to nothing.  Lots of 'it could be this and that etc...'  Sadly our tale of woe is not uncommon. After getting a number of people to look at the roof - the consensus was that the whole roof needed redoing (it was clear that by now the roof looked a mess with multiple things done wrong or poorly).  We obtained quotes and decided to go with Danny - his was the most competitive but it was not overriding factor behind why we did.  Danny made clear what the quote covered and where there might be extra work required as he got to it (this was fairly minor). He was easy to get a hold of and responded promptly and he was also happy to offer up refences which I did contact and all were happy to vouch for him. Minor downside was that we had a bit of a wait, but it was worth it.  When work started I was kept updated with progress and photos.  Issues were dealt with, and although I'm not an expert by any means the appearance of the work was top.  Most importantly we are leak free! bonzo 17/05/25 Needed a new rear roof for terrace house in East Dulwich and heard about Danny Denton (07943 673482). Have worked with over 20 builders in the past but this guy was way the best - polite, hard working, honest, professional, informative, highly skilled and above all quoted lower than any of the others who came down to view the job. If you need roofing work I would definitely give him a call. If he's busy working else where I assure you he is well worth waiting for. He got the scaffold up and job finished in no time and kept me informed at every stage. Another roofer (who appears on this forum) gave a quote which was three times higher than Danny's.   #########################################################   Norwood Roofing 07412 000 214 Email Address: [email protected] Website: https://norwoodroofing.co.uk/ Fee163 01/01/26 Another 5 star recommendation for David and Patrick. Got in touch with David last week regarding clearing our gutters and as always he quoted immediately and came out within the week to do the job.  We've used David and Patrick for all our roof work for almost 10 years .   They also did an amazing job for my sister who is based outside the area - she couldn't easily find someone local and they stepped in and did a fantastic job (it was quite a big job).  Can't recommend them highly enough, really personable, always reliable and so easy to work with and consistent, just wouldn't work with anyone one else!  Thanks again David and Patrick. caroline5553 12/01/26 Another recommendation for David and Patrick. David came out the same day we called, had scaffolding up by the weekend and the job done on Monday. Really nice guys, never made me feel uncomfortable, easy to work with and seemed to have done a great job. Thanks, David and Patrick! sheppick 15/12/25 I would also recommend David and Patrick. David quoted immediately, and they came and did the work I needed the following week. They fixed my leaking roof and did a number of other jobs for me that were needed on the roof. Really reliable, turned up on time and very reasonable quote. Super easy to deal with and I would highly recommend.  #################################################################   Which Trusted Trader R Tredget & Son 07905829393 or 07956553852  [email protected] http://www.rtredgetandson.com/ OUR FEATURED WORKS Roofing, plumbing, kitchen installation, building, interior decorating, electrical installation, bathroom installation, exterior decorating, tiling, plastering, landscaping & carpentry 02/08/25 This is the second time R. Tredget & Son have carried out works on our property. Part of the work included the repair of cladding on an end gable that Richard had previously installed but it had since been accidentally damaged by another trades-person. I assumed I'd pay for such repair work, as the damage was no fault of his own, but when we discussed this, Richard was adamant he would not charge! Made a lovely job of the repair too. When you turn your home (or part of it) over to builders it often feels like they've taken over. Not so with Richard, Adam and Harrison. They respect your property and are willing to work with you. They keep you informed at every stage, offering suggestions and alternatives as appropriate and they don't take liberties. We are so glad to have found R. Tredget & Son builders: quality work from reliable, hard-working and courteous folks. 10/10/24 Multiple jobs complete to a high standard We've used Richard for a few years now getting our house complete. He and his team have completely refitted our kitchen, replaced ceilings, built internal and external walls, laid flooring, plastered, decorated, fixed guttering, fit skirting boards; the list goes on! They take pride in their work, and every job we've needed doing, they've always done to a high standard. No job was too big or too small for them, and I've no doubt the quality work they've done has increased the value of our house, so a big thanks again for everything they've done. 17/04/24 A Great Family Run Company This was our first time having works done in a new house so we were understandably nervous! From the first meeting with Richard and Adam we knew that we would be in good hands. Nothing that we wanted done was too much of an issue, even if it was a bit more of a challenge to them (unlike some other quotes we got!). They gave clever suggestions but weren't pushy with it and had good ideas! We had a whole new bathroom installed and then some structural work done around the house. The guys always made sure that they left the house in a clean state at the end of every day, which really made a difference to our standard of living during the works. Richard, Michelle, Adam, and H were trustworthy and communication was perfect throughout. We used some of their guys for boiler/electrics too and they were also great. Would highly recommend taking them on for your works!       
    • Bit of a long-shot, but I dropped my glasses somewhere along my run last night, after taking them off due to the rain. The glasses are Giorgio Armani with grey frames. My running route attached, so they could be anywhere along this route. If you've found them, please get in touch! 07971806292 Many thanks James
    • I'm in the middle of the civil service pension crisis with no pension for 4 months and counting. No access to the much publicised loans either. I have emailed Helen Hayes several times. It took her 6 weeks to contact Capita on my behalf but no follow up, no reply, she didn't attend the Westminster Hall debate about the issue either. Lots of other MPs are speaking and acting on behalf of their constituents but I've had no joy. Has anyone else please? What works to get help from Helen Hayes?
    • Our cat Suki has gone missing from Keston Road near Goose Green. Please let us know if you see her anywhere or can check your sheds and gardens. You can contact us me on 07980308743 or [email protected].  Thanks Chris
