Welcome to SE22 Where did August go? I am not complaining as it means it is time for my favourite time of the year and my bumper Back to School issue. The support by so many local companies, has meant I can include more editorial in the magazine this month, so thank you for advertising with me. As the magazine relies on all the fantastic advertisers, please do let them know where you saw them; it really helps. As usual I have rounded up all the great events taking place in and around Dulwich. Last month we saw the return of the parkruns in Peckham Rye and Dulwich Park. This month it is fantastic to have two great fairs on our doorstep: the Dulwich Park Fair and the Peckham Rye Fete which are back and I have full details for you. The events pages start on page 6. There are a whopping eight pages of online and in person events happening in and around Dulwich. So there is plenty to do right on our doorsteps. The Last Word this month goes to local resident Sophie Parker. Sophie runs a fab local business called The Flora Lab. Please do read the full article on page 48. If you would like to feature in The Last Word, please do get in touch. Until next time.
