Agree with this - he has very good people skills - maybe he could train up other staff!

Personally I find the Dulwich pool pleasant, but the gents' wet changing room far smellier that it needs to be. (Smell is from the loo.) I like the front desk staff, they smile and give you their attention. Comments in this thread about needing another squat rack are spot on.


There was something about Peckham Pulse that put me off. I think it was a combination of the hassle of gym upstairs followed by a trek downstairs for swimming, combined with a sauna which was possibly located in Brigadoon, up on gym level. And the staff didn't manage to create the same welcoming experience as Dulwich.

you can def expect a two tier entry system (eg one for main entrance then another for eg gym). No more getting waved through.


Im personally quite excited by the new ownership and can only see upside / improvements. I might even join again if they deliver - bring it on!

I just hope they will do subscription for gym only..

Swimming pool itself it s very hugely and not good to swim regularly and for "longer" distances

With Fusion i could use the pool in forest hill (very big and modern) and the gym in ED, as also the gym in forest hill it s small with a very bad weight area..

Unless there will be separate subscription for gym and pool i m going to lose..:(

Shall i go for a good pool and bad gym in forest hill or a good gym and unbelievably bad pool in ED..?

..Think if they don t do separate subscriptions in ED i ll be forced to leave and go forest hill..sad!

    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
