This is an initiative set up by the 22 year old niece of a friend of mine who has been working for UNHCR in the Lebanon refugee camps where the children there have nothing and have and are facing bitterly cold conditions with no proper clothes, let alone toys and educational tools.


I thought I would link to her newly established Facebook page as even if you can't donate cash, I know there are many on EDF, myself included, who have been looking to find a way of passing on unwanted baby clothes and toys etc to a good home.

Please have a look (and apologies but despite being vaguely technologically proficient I dont seem to be able to make the link 'live')

Thank you Sanity girl and Pripolla! I think she is getting a really good response and she will be taking all the donations out soon (and if anyone has old suitcases etc to help transport the items that would be welcome too)... The photos of the first deliveries are moving and uplifting

      Can this thread be renamed "Finding Dulwich" or "Where's Dulwich" or "Depends where you're coming from?"

      Perhaps someone from the Dulwich society can enlighten us on why Dulwich Library/ Dulwich Plough is deemed "Dulwich" for geographical purposes. 🙏 Personally I had always thought it was because it was determined as that for the tram stop in the days of trams and then for the number 12 bus.

      Dulwich Hill SNT - "Cuppa with a Coppa"

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Cuppa with a copper has been around for a couple of years, maybe longer. Some of you may remember WPCs Trish and Deepa who regularly held informal sessions at Christ Church. They found out more what was going on in the neighbourhood, what scams were about, who was causing trouble etc, burglary, intimidation, drug dealing etc. People, especially Mums with young children and older people felt more comfortable in this informal environment. Trish and Deepa's informal sessions were expanded later after pandemic to the roll out across the borough of 'Cuppa with a Copper'. There have been a number of such events in ED - Dawson Heights, a PH in Forest Hill Road. Many areas in London and England operate similar initiatives.
