I'm interested to understand whether any of the developments planned are on the land marked as 'Site of Importance for Nature Conservation' or whether these areas are just beyond the boundaries (which seems to be the case on the planning application submitted). For me, it is really important to prot...

I live right by those lights and you can hear the scooters and motorbikes coming from Kirkdale or Westwood hill, tapping on their warning horn and revving their engines to tell people to move out of the way as they have no intention of stopping. They seem to believe themselves above those crossing ...

In addition to the four candidates already mentioned, I'm please to say that Hoong-Wai Cheah from UKIP is also able to attend the hustings on 6th June.

The Forest Hill Society and the Sydenham Society have rearranged the election hustings for candidates for our next MP on Tuesday, 6th June from 7:30pm at JK Banqueting Hall at 15 Perry Vale, SE23 2NE, in the centre of Forest Hill.

There was an outdoor film shown last year, which I believe was a great success, but poetry reading sounds like a good idea too. And gluten free cookery would be excellent, I'm always looking for exci...
