Re: kinleigh folkard & hayward

I asked if they would think about the use of the space by a pop up - particularly with the Sydenham Artists Trail - but received a negative. I will continue to kee...

Re: Noise in Lower Syd last night

The anti-social behaviour in the early hours was from the Hazel Grove estate and the music stopped at 3.15am followed by the noise of people leaving the party. I have raised a complaint with the police as the 101 number was not answered and asked Lewisham Homes to look at these neighbour disturbances.
