Hi you Lovely East Dulwich Residents & Friends further afield,


A group of local volunteers are running a weekly Tuesday coffee morning at Lordship Lane Baptist Church (LLBC) for the local community. They offer a cup of tea/coffee some cakes/biscuits and a chat/some board games. As "All are welcome" they have a range of people attending of varying ages.


They run a clothes bank and plan to do various other activities such as a Knitting & crocheting club/"Film Tuesdays"/Silver Surfers etc. to engage the people attending. They desperately need the following (good quality please) items:


Kitting/crocheting needles

Knitting wool

Prams/Pushchairs

Baby carriers

Travel cots

Baby clothes

Winter clothes - babies/children/women & men

Laptops/Desktops - Do you know any companies/organisations who could donate these for their "silver surfers"?

TV with disc facilities for their "Film Tuesday" & exercise class

Copies of classic films-12 Angry Men/Casablanca etc.

Plants/herbs for their planned therapy garden/help of a local gardener


I offered to post a message for them so please pm me to let me know if you have any of the above items or if you can help in other ways e.g. could you become a monthly/quarterly/yearly "Friend" of Friends & Neighbours - could you provide their monthly teas/coffees? Or why not pay them a visit and see what they do and offer your donations directly.


I love a good imitative and I know they will welcome your help and I thank you on their behalf for this in advance.

As I can't volunteer at present with them I have become a "Monthly Friend" of "Friend & Neighbours" and will help

with their publicity. Can anyone print their flyers/do a banner?


Let's make a difference together in 2016!

They desperately need pushchairs. Three ladies who attend have given birth in the last

2 weeks so they have given 2 baby carriers but are still looking for pushchairs....


Anyone out there with a pre-loved pushchair that they no longer need?

Hi there,


"Friends & Neighbours" would really appreciate any donations you can make.


Has anyone got a double buggy they would like to swop with one of the mums who is due to give birth in the next couple of weeks?


Thank you,

Laura

    • Indeed ianr, I didn't have time to include all Royal Mail options, thanks for that extra bit, they have been spot on for me, I use them a lot and have never had any issues with delivery, touch wood!
    • People are switching to electric cars irrespective of fuel prices.  100s of millions that could be spent on hospitals and schools for example have been lost due to fuel duty freezes and a supposedly temporary reduction.  Fuel is relatively cheap at the moment.  With a stonking majority when is it time to rightly take on motorists? Farming, I simply referred to Paul Johnson of the IFS who knows more about the economy that you, I and Truss will ever know. Food?  Au contraire.  It's too cheap, too poor quality and our farmers are squeezed by the supermarkets and unnatural desire to keep it cheap.  A lot less takeaways and more home cooking with decent often home produced, food should benefit most in our society. Be honest you do t like Labour. 
    • In fact there was a promotional leaflet came through the letter box today, for sending by RM's parcel post by buying online.  There are also options mentioned for having the labels printed  at a Collect+ store or at a Parcel Locker.  More info at https://www.royalmail.com/.
    • Is it? Let's see  Farming is a tough gig with increasingly lower returns, if farms have to sell off land to pay inheritance tax it will reduce their ability to survive. Which in real terms could mean more farm land lost and more reliance on imported food which sees money flowing out, not in to the country.  But I guess as long as you get cheap food that doesn't concern you 😉  Lol "what about the cars"  again Mal... like a broken record....  Governments know that squeezing car drivers for more fuel duty will drive down income from taxes as people switch to electric, which would leave them with a black hole in income. Guess the fuel duty is a fine balancing act tiĺl enough electric cars have been sold to raise tax revenue from their use.
