Just in case you didn’t manage to get tickets to the Coronation Festival or Evening Gala at Buckingham Palace, the Association is organising an alternative event for members on Sunday 14th July! We had already planned to hold our annual Summer Picnic on that day so, in addition to everyone bringing a dish to share and the Association providing the liquid refreshments, we will be hanging up the bunting sewn by volunteers for last year’s Jubilee party and, with the permission of the Council, closing off the sections of the road around the Triangle at the junction of Horniman Drive and Liphook/Rocombe Crescent. While the adults are busy eating and drinking, activities and games for the children are planned, including three-legged and egg and spoon races – perhaps for the adults as well as the children. Any comments or suggestions would be most welcome, so please let us know your ideas either via your road rep or by e-mail to secretary@tewkesburylodge.org.uk

March to save Lewisham Hospital – 26th January
As you will no doubt be aware, the A&E and maternity units at Lewisham Hospital are under threat of closure. A community campaign to fight the proposed closure needs the help of residents to keep up pressure on the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, who will make the decision on the future of the hospital at the beginning of February.
More details are available in the latest edition of our newsletter, and there is a march in Lewisham on Saturday 26th January to protest against the closure. If you would like to join the march, meet at Lewisham roundabout (by the station) for 12 midday.
And help the campaign organisers to reach their goal of 30,000 signatures by signing the on-line petition today? http://www.savelewishamhospital.com/
Save Lewisham Hospital
| As you may already know, there is a proposal to close the A&E and Maternity services at Lewisham Hospital. This proposal, if agreed, would severely affect the standard and availability of healthcare services available to local residents. Public Consultation on these proposed closures of A&E and Maternity Services at Lewisham Hospital ends at midnight on Thursday 13 December. For information see http://www.savelewishamhospital.com/ |
