Gentrification affects people in different ways and can be both positive and negative. Criticism works both ways too. Brixton for example- Newcomers move into certain parts where there's a thriving night time economy, a few bars and long standing clubs. Literally move in/ or buy to let at extortionate rates opposite a nightclub that was included in the the estate agents blurb. Vibrant-cool Peckham, Brixton etc. Two places that many of it's current residents wouldn't have drove through in an armoured truck not that long ago. They then complain about the noise coming from those bars and clubs. More often than not those venues end up having restrictions put on them which are prohibitive and ultimately the death knell for a long standing business that has done it's bit in attracting punters with disposable cash to the area. -
Can also recommend Synergy, in Camberwell Leisure Centre. Lovely coaches, and good differentiation for different children’s abilities. -
I’m convinced that East Dulwich is one of London’s best areas...nice parks, top-notch schools, and absence of high-rise buildings...etc.. The only downside is a few grumpy people who criticise newcomers and complain about gentrification - while enjoying its perks. -
Aria has came at a few hours' notice to solve various problems with our kitchen sink. He's responsive, the work is of good quality and he does it with care, and he communicates clearly and well. Strongly recommend.
