This moved to Camberwell Leisure Centre in Artichoke Place (SE5 8TS) at least a month ago now. I shall soon stop seeing the need to keep reminding everyone. The new venue is friendly, hospitable and (as a sign of that) has a cafe. Our guys will be indoors if it's raining, as it seems to do all the time now, and outside, if outside is attractive.


This is a drop-in, not a course. What gets taught depends on what the punters (you) bring in. The guys will help you fix whatever it is and show you how it's done. If you know, or suspect, that you may need parts then it's probably a good idea to bring them with you. The nearest bike shop, that I'm aware of, is Sea Bass in Camberwell Church Street (SE5 8QZ) and that shuts at 7pm.


It's all free and everyone is welcome. The guys are house-trained and personable. They operate under the wing of Southwark Cyclists and we are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign. Our website is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk. The event page for this is here: https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/free-bike-maintenance-with-hands-on-tuition-7/. The LCC's website is here: https://lcc.org.uk/?ref=nav. Our email is [email protected], twitter is faster @southwarkcycle and or text me on 07842 640 207 and I will try to assist.

    • Congratulations if your child has got through to the interview stage or you are getting ahead with planning. So close to the finishing line! As you will be aware, for the oversubscribed schools in particular, the interview is a key part of their selection process. The formats vary from school to school, however all of them are looking for candidates who will thrive in their school, and they hope to get to know what makes them tick, in a short space of time. For most children of this age, an interview environment will be uncharted territory and will feel naturally daunting. A ‘dry run’ in an unfamiliar environment will help your child overcome nerves, giving them the confidence and know-how to present their best self.

    • I think it should be free and they should pay £1 for every one on target. Proceeds to go towards a Xmas bonus for the street cleaners.

    • Sorry Malumbu, but to say that Pakistani men are being 'demonised' is disgraceful. The men in the rape gangs were predominantly from Pakistan - that is a fact.  To suggest pointing this out is victimisation totally undermines the horror that the predominantly white young girls suffered at their hands. The men exploited this, using their nationality as a shield, and told their victims they wouldn't be believed. And they were right - some of he brave people who did call it out lost their jobs.  To deny there is a strong cultural element to this, so as to protect your fear of being seen as anything other than liberal and progressive, is disingenuous at the very least. And to suggest that calling it out is far right is insane, I'm sure plenty women and girls of Pakistani heritage would agree.  That Jenrick and Badenoch have picked this up and used it as a political football is a really disappointing start to the year, though at least today's debate in PMQs was respectful in its tone. But for the victims to have this glibly brought up and used to bait the other side just goes to show how little some of the protagonists really care about them.
