I?ve read that the government will be providing some winter funding to support families and children.

The funding will be managed by councils. I?ve been volunteering at the Community Fridge at the Albrighton Centre in East Dulwich and the number of people using the Community Fridge has increased.

The Community Fridge has been running for a number of years and providing food to those in the community who need it and I believe would be a recipient of funding which can use the funding to provide food where it?s needed locally.


The Albrighton Centre is not something I?d come across before but they do great work and the Community Fridge is known and well used by those who will benefit from the Covid Winter Grant. You can find your local councillor on the council website and it would be great if you could contact them to suggest funding is given to the Albrighton Centre.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By COYS1961 · Posted

      I hope it's ok to use this thread to ask for advice on a separate issue in relation to TJ Medical Practice. A friend of mine who is registered there has recently been diagnosed with a serious long-term condition. He has been struggling to find a good GP at the practice since the departure of Dr Love and I said I would try to find out which of the remaining GPs other patients have found most capable and sympathetic - particularly for the scenario of overseeing ongoing care for a long-term progressive illness. Is there any particular GP that people would recommend?  Very many thanks.

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By spark67 · Posted

      I,m not a fan of Gales; but a lot of food serving premises open on Xmas day , so not unusual, worked in catering for nearly 40 years and staff usually get extra pay… My niece who is in her last year of college & wants to go travelling next summer, is waitressing in a restaurant near where she lives on Xmas day & Boxing Day for £20 per hour to boost her travelling fund. Back in the day I worked New Year’s Day 2000, & had my pay bumped to £50 per hour, happy days (wasn’t forced I volunteered)

      Hardly strange; arcane perhaps. It used to be a common practice in many towns for the swings, roundabouts etc in parks to be chained up by the council on Sundays, so that they didn’t provide a source of reckless pleasure on the sabbath. The outrage that a cake shop should open on Christmas Day reminded me of this. The policy had pretty much died out in England and Wales by the 70’s but is still in force in parts of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.

      I would be interested to learn if Gail's hike their prices on Christmas day. I don't go to Gail's (as I prefer Christophers on HM Lane) but if anyone does go and detects a bit of price gouging, please let us all know.
