Our dog is on her way to recovering, thank you. She spent the first 5 or so days at the vet and had still has some wounds which are open, but given how she looked when it happened it's pretty remarkable. You can see her looking happy on The Neighbourhood Vet Instagram here - https://www.instagram.com/p/DBYkbVeoV2F/?img_index=1 Unfortunately, we are aware of the other dog from the police and it was the same dogs that attacked ours that killed the other shortly after. The dogs were caught and we understand have been put to sleep, but the owner was not able to be traced. -

Plus ca change During WWI, Vera Brittain worked as a VAD nurse at the 1st London General Hospital, Camberwell - the military extension of St Bartholomew's Hospital. The satellite hostel was nearly two miles away on Champion Hill. "...it seemed strange to be the quarter-possessor of a bare-boarded room divided into cubicles by much-washed curtains of no recognisable colour, with only a bed, a washstand and a tiny chest of drawers to represent one's earthly possessions... to meet the needs of about twenty young women, was one cold bathroom equipped with an ancient and unreliable geyser...which took about twenty minutes to half fill the bath with lukewarm water." Edited to add source: "Testament of Youth" by Vera Brittain published 1933. -
It maybe worthwhile checking the foundations of the house because some houses in Dulwich were designed and built in such a manner as to eliminate/reduce the risk of subsidence. One such design feature was "raft foundations". These are thick, reinforced concrete slabs that spread the building’s load evenly across a large surface area, reducing the differential movement caused by subsidence. Raft foundations "float" on the clay and accommodate movements without major structural damage. Another factor worth considering is if the terrace of houses is on level ground or on a slope . On a downhill slope, the houses lower down the slope are potentially more prone to subsidence damage because the houses higher up the slope tend to "lean" on those further down if subsidence movement has occurred. -
Exams can be a particularly stressful time for teenagers, and I offer one-on-one sessions specifically designed to support students through this challenging period. With a focus on managing stress and anxiety, I guide teenagers through a range of practical techniques that can be applied before, during, and after exams. In our sessions, we explore: Breathing techniques to help them stay calm and focused, especially when anxiety arises. Coping strategies to manage feelings of overwhelm and stress, ensuring they have tools to regain control during intense moments. Positive affirmations to build self-confidence and maintain a positive mindset throughout the exam period. Relaxation techniques to unwind and release tension, providing much-needed mental and physical rest. My goal is to create a supportive and calming environment where teenagers feel equipped to face their exams with confidence and ease. Each session is tailored to the individual’s needs Sessions and Prices 40 minutes - £45 60 minutes - £60 (prices may vary if not in the local East Dulwich area, classes can also be at my home or held in the comfort of their home or a preferred location) For more information please get in touch.
