Dulwich Picture Gallery has recently become aware a scammer who has been operating in the local area mascaraing as a Gallery member of staff. On 8th August a resident on Turney Road was called on by a man claiming to work at the Gallery called ?Jack?. Jack asked her for money, ?60-70 for a taxi to Essex, claiming that his pregnant wife was about to give birth. The resident was told that the money would be paid back to her, that the gallery would ensure it, and that she would get a bottle of wine for her troubles. Fortunately the resident was wise enough to not give him any money and the incident was reported to the police.


The man was white, medium build and height. Short brown hair and in his early 40s.

      It wasn't a rumour, the salon had closed when I posted here. Regarding the Post Office, as I said go and ask them.

      My annoyance Is with the fact that the gym is being closed for 5 weeks for refurbishment but we dont have an option to freeze our membership if the only facility we use is the gym. Apparently Peckham gym is closed at the same time for refurbishment which I think is pretty stupid. Therefore the nearest gym for all the members from ED leisure centre and Peckham leisurecentre is the one in Camberwell . I lament the everyone active days..at least I could attend gyms near to work and outside Southwark
