    • Bunch of keys found between East Dulwich Grove and Greendales.They are on top of the green telecomms cabinet opposite the side entrance to JAGS.
    • If this is the dog in question then it seems that the dog isn't being mistreated as such, but that it suffers from a separation anxiety - this isn't uncommon. Being left outside in good weather isn't cruel, and maybe is more interesting for the dog than being incarcerated. So long as those caring for it know that, and are doing what they can to mitigate it, I don't think it's something that 'the authorities' need be disturbed about. The noise is clearly annoying, of course, but additional worries about mistreatment (cruelty) can be set aside.
    • Hello I’m wondering if anyone has found any keys (two silver ones). I lost them today in Peckham rye park (31-03-25) around 1130am. 
    • I am desperate to find somebody who has experience of autoimmune rheumatic diseases, who really understand the chronic clinical framework. I had found one doctor very good at this and for some years things went on smoothly,  until administrative changes or just his different agenda and priorities messed up totally my care: for about one year I did not receive the diagnosis of a comorbidity  I needed.  I had to go privately and discover that with a very cheap medication I would sort out awful pain and risk of complications in few days. After that episode,  I decided to change practice as I did not feel comfortable anymore going back there. But things went even worse. With the new surgery GPs I had to file a yellow card for a very idiot error in a prescription, then I have been denied prescriptions that I have on my list of repeated medications with the consequence I ended up in A&E that referred me to the hospital clinic for further assessment. It is really tiring!  I am feeling constantly dismissed if not even intentionally bullied by receptionists and young doctors or trainees. It is very stressful to deal with GPs that do not understand basic things. I do not have the resources to go privately for everything.  I manage my condition very well but any little issue I have (and I have many, to be honest) requires to be considered in the context of  autoimmunity and allergies, for which I cannot always rely on self-care I need to speak with a doctor.   junior doctors and doctors without understanding of rheumatic diseases tend to either prescribe medications I cannot take or dismiss the problems as common and non specific so not worth attention. It is not the case.   Also referral to specialists for monitoring a number of risks have been mismanaged by the new surgery with appalling waste of resources (it makes no sense to be refer me for a  wrong  issue or to the wrong clinic).  This new GP (that saw me just once in six months) told me I have health anxiety that I absolutely do not have. He ordered tons of blood test totally useless instead of trying to understand how to deal with an issue that is reported in clinical recommendations for my condition as very frequent and to be treated symptomatically (as I have been doing following advice from another private GP). I do  have health needs unrecognised by this GP so I want to change GP surgery again.    Does anybody have recommendations of local surgeries registering new patients with the NHS that have  doctors with this level of expertise in autoimmune rheumatic diseases? Please any help will be appreciated.  Ideal would be for me to have also the possibility of a chat with the doctor before registering and the ease of talking over the phone about problems - not sending an interminable chain of chats and text messages. I am really easy to talk to, I do not expect any miracle and I am not happy to take drugs so I am not the kind of patient that pests with phone calls and urgent requests for prescriptions. I just want to go ahead with my life and repeated prescription without harassment errors of judgements and superficial chats.  I am happy to travel anywhere in Dulwich and surrounding areas as long as they can register me (I live in Dulwich with postcode falling into Lambeth though not Southwark)  Thank you so much  Marbeya
