Investigations into major works failings and overspend get delayed - but Southwark Council refuses to say why

during menstruation, sexual intercourse, bowel movements and/or urination.

Despite being so common, it takes an average of eight years and 10 months to get diagnosed in the UK, for reasons including limited research and lack of understanding of the disease.

Cllr Stephanie Cryan, cabinet member for equalities, democracy and finance, said: “We want every single employee at the council to have the support in place that enables them to thrive.

“That’s why we are proud to join the Endometriosis Friendly Employer scheme as the first council in England to do so. We are committed to supporting those in the workplace with endometriosis, as well as breaking down taboos about menstrual health.

“We look forward to working with Endometriosis UK, and hope that other local councils will join the scheme as well.”

Julia Parris, an executive assistant at Southwark Council, said: “From my experience with endometriosis, it is a debilitating condition which can affect women in so many different ways; physically, emotionally and mentally.

“Whilst it is a condition that most women learn to live with and navigate on a day to day basis, it is important to acknowledge that it can have a profoundly detrimental effect on the world of work and study.

Endometriosis is a disease that can cause women pain, nausea, other symptoms, and create fertility problems from puberty to menopause.

The Labour-run authority has now signed up to the Endometriosis Friendly Employer scheme which makes special provisions for the ten per cent of women who suffer from the condition.

Cllr Stephanie Cryan said “every single employee at the council” should “have the support in place that enables them to thrive”.

The council’s appointed Endometriosis Champions will serve as a point of support and information for colleagues and management.

HR policies will also be updated so people can access adequate support.

East Ayrshire Council in Scotland, and Powys County Council in Wales, have both joined the scheme in the past year Symptoms associated with endometriosis include chronic pelvic pain, abdominal bloating, nausea, fatigue, depression, anxiety, infertility, and severe life-impacting pain

‘Zian will be missed’

Residents on the Canada and Devon Mansions estates, say they have received “no indication” of when the crucial audits will be complete.

Barry Duckett, Tenants’ and Residents’ Association Chair on the Canada Estate said: “[We’ve had] no indication of when it’s going to be finished. It’s a mess.

Nobody knows what they’re doing.”

Southwark Council has refused to tell this paper when the audits are scheduled for completion despite repeated requests for comment.

When it emerged that major works on two estates had gone £5.9 million over budget, and years overschedule, Southwark Council offered its ‘unreserved apologies’.

Furious residents had been left with ‘whistling windows’, half-finished paint jobs, and ‘prisons of scaffolding’, and were expected to foot the bill.

The Labour-run authority pledged to undertake independent audits of the works and contract management to identify ‘what went wrong’, and deliver

recommendations by August.

However, as summer comes to an end, residents claim they have no idea when the audits will be complete.

This is despite Southwark Council previously admitting that the failings are so serious that fraud investigations could be necessary.

Michael Robertson, Canada Estate resident, said: “The Cabinet Member [Cllr Sarah King] has not responded to me.

“The officers have been great - clear and apologetic. The lead member not so. As a member of the Residents Panel, I’ve been bitterly disappointed.”

Devon Mansions, where works went £4.2 million over budget and 102 weeks over schedule, are also waiting for answers.

Resident Stephen Holt said: “There’s no information at all on the audit. I’m sick of these politicians saying they really want to help and they really care.”

In July, a notice in the Canada Estate said the review would be completed by September and apologised for missing the August deadline. Residents claim they have heard nothing from Southwark Council since.

Southwark Council was approached for comment.

Chef went from drug dealIng to CookIng for Celebs and now has hIs own kItChen In se15

By Isabel Ramirez

a pECkham chef has managed to turn his life around - going from drug dealing and prison to going viral on social media and getting a permanent residency at a pub where he grew up.

This time three years ago, Nathaniel Mortley a.k.a. Natty Can Cook was locked up in HMP Brixton cooking for his fellow inmates. Now, he is running his own kitchen at The Greyhound pub.

In addition to this, he has a sea of adoring fans on social media, including celebrities, who are all vying for his food. But how did he turn it all around?

The 30-year-old was imprisoned back in 2019 for drug offences and served two and a half years inside.

“I was dealing drugs - party drugs, on the side whilst I was working in hospitality,” he said, expressing that it was due to discrimination at one of the restaurants he worked at that he lost his passion for cooking and fell into crime.

But that wasn’t always the case. When he was 16, Nathaniel was stabbed. On leaving St Thomas the Apostle school, his mum worried for his future and encouraged him to pursue hospitality as a way of staying out of trouble.

He did a culinary course at Lewisham College and his first job at 18 was cheffing at Oblix at The Shard.

If it wasn’t for this grounding in cookery and having a focus, he said he probably wouldn’t have turned his life around.

“A lot of people think I learnt to cook like this in prison but that’s not true,” he told the News, explaining that he is Michelin-trained and worked in some of London’s top restaurants before being arrested.

L: Nathaniel Mortley (@nattycancook_) R: Nathaniel with his team at The Greyhound

Whilst inside, he quickly got a job at the prisoner-run restaurant The Clink after they saw what he could do.

He was released three years ago and decided to set up a social media platform. And from there he has flown.

Impressed by his high-end techniques, people started booking him to cook for their private events, including famous artists. “Chip added me on Snapchat after he had seen my food. I’ve cooked for him twice.

Nathaniel has also hosted some big events for rapper Ambush and BBC 1Xtra host Nadia Jae. “Cooking really breaks down doors

The chef now wants to help young men coming out of prison to get on the right path. “In the culinary world, they don’t look down on you because you’ve been to prison.

“As long as you’ve got a passion and you’re willing to learn and listen - I’d be willing to take people on.”

L: Red snapper with corn salsa R: Jerk Chicken Supreme with Brown butter mash because everyone needs to eat.”

At the Greyhound he is serving up Caribbean small plates fine-dining style.

said he still thinks about prison every day.

“It saved my life,” he professed.

“It made me think - I’ve got a good career and a talent, so why did I need to go down the path I went down?

“The penny finally dropped.”

Pub dating back to 1765 among treasured south London boozers saved from the chop

By Herbie Russell

a famouS pub dating back to 1765 is among the south london boozers saved from the scrap heap after a lastminute buyout.

The Elephant and Castle pub is one of eleven venues - including three in south east London - acquired by the Urban Pubs & Bars group.

However, The Dogstar, Brixton, originally a Victorian hotel which became known as one of Britain’s most famous Black pubs, remains at risk.

The Elephant and Castle was owned by the Antic hospitality group which fell into administration earlier this summer.

The pub on the roundabout claims to be the reason for the area’s unusual name.

In the eighteenth-century there was a large coaching inn on the site named The Elephant and Castle where travellers would stop off on their journeys.

The old pub was demolished in 1959 and a new building erected.

The other south east London pubs bought in the deal are The Sun of Camberwell,

UPB, founded by Malc Heap and Nick Pring in 2014, is one of London’s fastest growing pub businesses, with the latest deal

taking the group to 52 trading sites.

Last month, Urban announced the acquisition of two new sites, The Herne Tavern in East Dulwich and The Gun in Spitalfields.

By Isabel Ramirez a moDEl railway club needs a new home to store its impressive layouts, including one of the Victorian Crystal palace station which they’ve worked on for nearly 30 years.

The Southwark and District Model Railway Club, based in the gallery at St Peter’s Church in Walworth, has been given notice by its landlord to move out.

Next month, the Grade-I listed building will undergo maintenance.

If they don’t find a new home, their beloved hobby will end indefinitely.

Ray Blanchard, who founded the club in 1986, said this is the ninth time they’ve had to move. With a lack of income, they can’t afford to pay full rent on a building and throughout the years have been given temporary spaces to meet and store the structures.

“It would be a big relief to find a permanent club room,” he said, explaining that every time they move they have to take apart all the layouts, delaying their projects.

At the club, members have the opportunity to build and operate a range of model trains that are exhibited up and down the country.

Ian, 54, who has been a member for the last 15 years, said the club provides him a much-needed break from his reality of being a carer. “I don’t know what I’d do if I couldn’t come here anymore,” he continued, “it’s my escape.”

He has his own elaborate set-up at home, but coming to a group means he can bond with people who share his lifelong hobby.

“It’s nice to share ideas and talk to other people,” Ian added.

Not only a relaxing activity, but you can learn real-life skills such as electrics, carpentry and most of all: patience.

The club’s biggest and most impressive layout of the Victorian Crystal Palace station is nearly forty years in the making.

Tiny intricate scenes of newspaper stands, shops and characters surround the impressive multi-platform station structure, which closed in 1954. They have meticulously researched what it

“Given what is going on with schools working at lower capacity, if there were any spare classrooms be very happy to move there,” Ray said.

The members said it could even teach children new skills if they were based at a school, church or museum, for instance.

Anyone with any idea of buildings they could use or how to help the club please get in touch with Ray on 07950865306.

Urgent help needed after food bank ransacked overnight, leaving struggling families in crisis

‘thouSanDS of pounds worth’ of stock at a peckham food bank was reported stolen, leaving hundreds of desperate families without their weekly food and hygiene parcels.

Southwark Foodbank volunteers were utterly disheartened when they arrived at the office on Monday morning to find all their stock had been stolen.

The charity gives out emergency food parcels and toiletries to anyone who needs them, helping hundreds of people every week.

However, on Sunday night (8 September) a group of people ransacked their building on Peckham High Street.

Video footage showed thieves forcing the shutters open, going ‘back and forth’ for hours taking any stock they could get their hands on. This included food, toiletries and the laptop and phone used for work.

A spokesperson from the food bank said: “It’s been difficult getting

“But to come in this morning and see this, it’s very disheartening.”

As a result of the break-in, they estimate that they have lost around £3,000 worth of stock. They are now appealing to the community to help them recover it, so they can keep helping residents.

They also had to spend £600 to fix the damage, including getting a new lock and shutter.

The spokesperson said they ‘couldn’t understand’ why anyone would do this, especially as they give it away for free anyway.

“If people are desperate we give them stuff,” they continued, “We never turn

anyone anyway.”

Since we broke the story online on Monday hundreds of people took to social media shocked that a food bank could be targeted in this way. Many who have since donated labelled it ‘a new low’, in a criminal landscape where shoplifting has reach record proportions.

legaCy of kIndness: eIghteen-year-old ruby’s dyIng wIshes are ComIng true

By Herbie Russell

Ruby, a passionate climate justice campaigner, pictured on Westminster Bridge.

a hErnE hill teenager whose dying wish was for her loved ones to ‘celebrate kindness’ has had £250,000 raised in her memory.

Ruby Fuller died from blood cancer aged eighteen and left her parents a list of compassionate ways they could remember her by.

Inspired by her message, the family aims to raise £500,000 to research T-cell lymphoma and leukaemia.

Emma Jones, Ruby’s mother, said: “Ruby would be so chuffed and so touched by everybody’s efforts and would be cheering them on.”

Ruby, a fierce environmental justice campaigner, was just seventeen when diagnosed with T-cell lymphoblastic nonHodgkin lymphoma in July 2019.

While undergoing chemotherapy, she urged family and friends to donate to blood cancer research rather than buy her flowers.

The Charter School North Dulwich head girl passed away ten months later in May 2020, saying goodbye to her family on Zoom due to the Covid-19 lockdown.

But a letter she left behind included a list of ways that family and friends could remember her, which embodied her caring and compassionate nature.

Inset; Family handout Parents Dylan and Emma

This list included celebrating kindness and calling out injustice by sharing her motto, ‘Live kindly, live loudly’, far and wide and helping other young cancer patients through fundraising for research.

The family, who now live in Gipsy Hill, have seen huge support since it was set up.

Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group has been able to fund several new research projects that will further understanding of childhood blood cancer and lead to more effective treatments.

Much of the fundraising has been hugely influenced by Ruby’s passions, interests and personality, which Emma said is incredibly important to her.

On Saturday, September 14, Emma and eleven of her colleagues at Ashden, a

climate action charity based in Victoria, take on the Thames Bridge Trek.

They will walk 25km across sixteen of London’s historic bridges and pass by several of the city’s iconic landmarks.

Emma said: “I’m a huge bridge geek. I love bridges and how they’re made and different types, and I think she got a bit

of that from me. On holiday we’d go and check out different bridges.”

She added: “She was London born and bred and passionate about the city.

So, London-based challenges are really special. She’d have loved this.”

You can donate to the Thames Bridge Trek fundraiser at www.justgiving.com/

hospItal staff In despaIr after trust says It wIll shut down two nurserIes EXCLUSiVE

By Isabel Ramirez hoSpital Staff in Camberwell might be forced to leave their jobs after the trusts decide to close two affordable workplace nurseries for good.

The nurseries in Mapother House in Denmark Hill - one run by King’s and the other by South London and Maudsley (SLAM) - have been a lifeline for parents working across the Maudsley and King’s College Hospitals for over thirty years.

Sadly, it has been announced that both sites will close next year, as the Trusts claim they are ‘no longer financially viable.’

One mother in tears told us that without childcare, some staff would be forced to leave their positions.

The frontline worker at King’s said she had not stopped crying since receiving the news.

“They were working towards a solution, but two weeks ago they told us they couldn’t do it anymore,” she explained.

“Dealing with all the traumas at work that we do every day - and then this happens.”

She was most concerned about the lowearners who don’t have family support.

“Other nurseries nearby have 18-month waiting lists,” she continued. “I know for a fact there are people on maternity leave who aren’t returning because of this, and some others working right now who will be forced to stop.”

Dr Patrick Bogue, who works for SLAM and has a child at one of the nurseries, said it came as a ‘big shock.’

“It’s one of the best perks of the job,” he told the News.

The workplace nurseries are open 8am6pm allowing parents to work normal hours whilst knowing their children are in safe hands.

They are also affordable, allowing lowerearning staff to access childcare.

“Some female staff members would not

Parents protesting to keep the nurseries open (Unison) have been able to have a career without the nursery service,” Dr Bogue added.

They were originally planning to close them back in 2022, but U-turned after parents protested against the action.

The nurseries were then re-opened in Spring 2023 at a much lower capacity.

Both King’s and Maudsley’s Trusts told us they had ‘explored various options’ but ‘none had proved to be financially viable.’

This included sourcing an alternative building in the local area, building a new nursery facility, and joining together to make a ‘super nursery.’ None of these will

go ahead and when the sites close the childcare provision will not be replaced.

Whilst some families have been pleading for answers, waiting lists for both nurseries have been shut.

“Some people are already preparing to leave their jobs because of the news of the nursery closure,” Dr Bogue said, adding he feared the impact this would have on staff going forward.

“It creates a chilling effect on us all and drives good people away, adding to the recruitment and retention crisis in the NHS.”

We asked both South London and Maudsley and King’s College Hospital Trusts whether they were prepared to lose hospital staff over this decision.

A King’s College Hospital spokesperson said of course they did not want to lose any of the staff who currently use the nursery, and this was not a decision they had ‘taken lightly.’

As for the nursery staff, both Trusts said they were ‘working with them’ to find alternative employment. There are 13 employees at Cedar House Nursery and 24 at King’s College Hospital Day Nursery.

Their joint statement reads: “The nursery staff are valued members of our team, and we are committed to supporting them through this transition. Affected nursery staff will be consulted on their options, including possible redeployment within the NHS Trust.”

They also said they would be helping parents find alternative nursery provisions and added this was ‘not the outcome they had hoped for.’

King’s College Hospital Day Nursery and Cedar House will close in 2025, although no exact date has been given yet.

frightened to let her out.”

The Aylesbury Estate is a huge housing complex in Walworth that is gradually being demolished and redeveloped by Southwark Council.

One of the biggest criticisms of its design was a ‘maze-like’ layout that allowed crime to go unseen and unpunished.

“This estate has gone down the pan, really has gone down the pan. Nobody feels secure anymore,” Ms Summerford said.

Wildlife officers from the Met Police’s safer neighbourhood are now conducting extra patrols of the area.

Online, locals shared their horror at the wretched news. “This post is so upsetting, I have 2 fur babies and this is why I keep them indoors, least I know they are safe from these vile monsters

that are around,” wrote one commenter.

Another person said: “If anyone knows who is responsible for this abhorrent killing of these poor defenceless animals do the right thing and make sure the person or persons are caught.”

A Met Police spokesperson said: “Police were called at 09:36hrs on Monday, 2 September to reports of a dismembered cat in the vicinity of Beaconsfield Road, SE17.

“Wildlife officers from the Safer Neighbourhood Team have been informed and are carrying out patrols in the area. SNARL (South Norwood Animal Rescue Liberty) has also been notified.

“There is no ongoing Met investigation at this time. If any further information comes to light, this will be assessed and investigated accordingly.”

Camberwell card shop closes after decades of service

By Isabel Ramirez

© Google Maps

a CarD shop in Camberwell, one of the area’s oldest businesses, has closed after the current owners couldn’t afford the surge in rent.

Card Corner has officially sold its last card, as the shop closes its doors last week, on Tuesday 3 September.

The business on Camberwell New Road has been run by Jaimini Desai and her husband for the last 20 years, but it was open long before that.

Unfortunately, owners told us their rent had doubled and they could no longer afford to be there.

“The people taking over are not keeping it as a card shop,” Jaimini’s husband told our paper as he was clearing the shelves, “so this is the end of it.”

Kamara, 6, loves the new family computer.

“There’s only food businesses around here now, hardly any walk-in places.

“It’s just impossible to survive.”

It will reopen as a vape shop.

Jaimini is reportedly ‘very upset’ about leaving the area. “Lots of the older people know her in the area.

They just come in for a chat not even to buy anything sometimes. Thank you to all our loyal customers.”

It is a recognisable spot for many, known for its personalised gifts and balloons, as well as cards.

Last year, locals noted the lack of business the shop was getting, with one man claiming they had ‘never seen anyone go in or out of the shop.’

There is a Card Factory just across the road, which could explain these claims.

Asda coming to Bermondsey

By Herbie Russell

© Southwark Planning Documents

aSDa EXprESS is set to open a new shop on tower Bridge road in Bermondsey.

The new outlet would replace the short-lived Planet Organic at number 153.

The supermarket giant has lodged a license application and requests to update the signage.

The licence application proposed opening hours of 6am to midnight, seven days a week.

Planet Organic closed after the firm went into administration last year.

Asda is undertaking a nationwide expansion of its Express store format, moving from three branches in September 2023 to a target of 500 by the end of this year.

The new Asda Express in Tower Bridge Road is close to the Welcome Coop store that opened last year.

It is also a short distance from the Sainsbury’s Local in Bermondsey Square and a Tesco Express further south on Tower Bridge Road.

a littlE girl from walworth, who didn’t have access to a computer at home, can now do her work more easily after her family was given a free laptop.

Six-year-old Kamara is ‘already learning so many new skills’ since getting the computer, her mum told the News.

The Phillips family, who live on the Aylesbury Estate, got the computer as part of a scheme to stop residents from feeling digitally excluded from society.

People donate their old devices to Community TechAid. The charity restores the tech devices and gives them to people who need them for free - no questions asked.

Mum-of-two, Kamir Phillips explained she held off applying for the scheme because she thought ‘someone else would need it more.’

It is hoped that she and her daughter will continue to thrive without barriers now they have access to a computer.

Veolia, in partnership with Southwark Council and Community TechAid, has unveiled new drop-off points for any unwanted tech devices, across Southwark.

The donation points are easily accessible and located at all Southwark libraries and the Reuse and Recycling Centre.

Southwark residents are urged to donate their unwanted laptops, smartphones and tablets which will then be assessed and repaired, and donated locally, to help those experiencing digital exclusion and keep the electricals in use for longer.

Any devices that can’t be repaired will be recycled.

“Between feeding my two kids and getting them everything they needed - a computer wasn’t a priority,” she explained.

Kamir works as a community chef for Surrey Quays Primary School and has also been trying to get her catering business off the ground.

Before getting the laptop a few months ago, all the family had was her phone.

“I was scattered and struggling to be organised,” she told us.

“But now having the laptop everything’s in one place and I feel more motivated to get things done.”

“You always think there’s a catch but they delivered it to us and it looks brand new,” she added.

The chef is making quite a name for herself locally, with teachers begging her to make their lunches and kids turning up to the Friday youth club ‘just for the food.’

Peckham Festival: The Block Party The three-day festival with nearly 20,000 visitors attending each year is even throwing a Vogue Ball

By Eliza Frost Shout out to you the Peckhamites because, over three days, Peckham Festival is back for another year celebrating everything about you.

So, from this Friday 13 to Sunday 15 September, Copeland Park and venues across Peckham will host a wideranging programme of free events that celebrate the creativity of the neighbourhood.

The festival stage will also feature Nadeem Din Gabisi, Donnie Sunshine and Mark Ashley-Dupe as well as Passa Production/The Mighty Ruler.

Local community performances will include Peckham Chamber Orchestra, The Multi-Story Orchestra, Rye Lane Chapel’s band, steel pans and carnival workshops.

Plus, Peckham faves Jumbi will also be holding a warehouse party on the Saturday.

The festival is even throwing a Vogue Ball hosted by House of Laveaux, blending the vibrant spirit of Peckham with the energy of ballroom culture.

This event will feature the common categories of a traditional Vogue Ball, interspersed with fashion shows from local designers, creating a linked tapestry of fashion and performance.

Made in Peckham will also return with open studios and a maker’s market, showcasing over 100 artists and designers and offering you the opportunity to purchase works directly from local creatives.

Ourhood Community will be hosting a curated pop-up of premium Blackowned brands, selling artisan fashion and lifestyle products.

Dope Readers Club and Peckham-

Alizée Ndiaye and Danny Bailey

based Lolwe Books will be hosting a literary event, which will see a book exchange along with a series of Q&A sessions with local authors, including Kelechi Okafor. Dope Readers is a community project committed

to promoting literacy, fostering engagement through the power of books and raising awareness of works

by Black and diverse authors.

The Bussey Building’s Rooftop Film Club, in collaboration with The New

Black Film Collective Literature, will be running a series of screenings across the weekend and 948 Collective will be programming a series of talks and arts events, too.

Not forgetting a wide variety of

free creative workshops for all – and activities for younger visitors, such as skateboard lessons and carnival workshops.

To add an extra layer of excitement for 2024, the festival has invited two guest curators to work on the programme this year – Alizée Ndiaye and Danny Bailey, who together make up The Heritage Palace.

After their curating of Copeland Gallery last year with a mixed media exhibition ‘Staying Power’, Peckham Festival says it was thrilled to offer the pair the opportunity to handle curation for the whole festival this year.

Peckham Festival welcomes almost 20,000 visitors each year and aims to bring people together through music, performance, film, art, open studios, markets, workshops, dance, activities and more.

Events take place in former warehouses, Victorian factories and repurposed car parks at the heart of the community, including at creative hubs Copeland Park, Cornerhouse (formerly Market) and Peckham Levels.

Collaborating with homegrown local talent and businesses is at the core of the festival’s ethos, too. And this year is no different. Peckham Festival is working with programming partners, which include local music platform GALA – who will bring a number of new, rising acts to the stage on Friday night – aiming to establish a pipeline for artists to perform at GALA in the future.

So, it’s all go for Peckham Festival, be sure to check out their website and Instagram (@peckhamfestival) for more details of the planned free events for each day, and we’ll see you there. www.peckhamfestival.org

New Post Office-themed bar to open in Borough with cocktails delivered by tubes above your head

By Isabel Ramirez A new bar where guests walk through a postbox into a giant sorting office and cocktails are delivered through air-powered tubes is opening in Borough next month.

Cahoots: Postal Office will be unveiled inside an old railway arch on the edge of Borough Market.

Modelled on a post-war post office, the new opening will transport guests back to 1946.

Entering through the post office shopfront, Cahoots guests will be greeted at the overflowing mail counter, by a Postie; keeping watch for suspicious coppers looking to bust the Cahoots Scoundrels and their latest illicit Borough cocktail operation.

Guests will be directed through a postbox into an immersive sorting area. In contrast to the façade of the post office, the two-floor sorting area will be a hive of bustling activity, with a capacity for 80 seated guests or 120 standing guests for private events.

Repurposing the latest in 1940s mail delivery technology, the focal point will

be a pneumatic tube system. This will see cocktails whizzing overhead as they are delivered to guests from the bar to tables, through a series of airpowered tubes.

Even the seating arrangements fit the theme, including repurposed mail sack chairs and even seats within a converted mail train cart.

On the mezzanine level, guests will find The Dead Letter Depot: full of precious mail that never reached its intended destination. Undelivered parcels and packages will wrap the curved walls of the old rail arch, and anyone who dares to lay hands on the most highly valued loot will trigger the alarm system.

Nestled amongst forgotten cargo and eclectic artefacts, guests can take a break in the Tea Corner, where repurposed telephone switchboards can be used to listen in on tantalising 1946 gossip and top-secret dispatches.

It is being run by Inception Group, who are behind Mr Fogg’s brand as well as Maggie’s club, and the Control Room B bar in Battersea Power station.

Cahoots: Postal Office will open officially on Friday 11 October.

Harris Girls’ Academy East Dulwich At Harris Girls’ Academy East Dulwich students develop both academically and personally through our shared values of character courage and conscience. Our 2024 GCSE cohort achieved exceptional GCSE results with over a third of grades at Grade 7+, equivalent to A, A* and A**.

We are consistently in the top 10% schools in the country for progress. Ofsted awarded HGAED the top ‘Outstanding’ grade when they visited the academy in December 2023, noting “pupils thrive at this exceptional school”.

We are much more than great results. Our students are, in Ofsted’s words “polite, confident, and hard working”. Students have excellent opportunities here at HGAED, with over 100 clubs every week.

Our students embrace opportunities and are keen to grow their interests outside the classroom including engaging in Art History and Debate Mate competitions.

We are incredibly proud to be the National Debate Mate Cup Winner in 2024. The judges credited our students, with the founder of Debate Mate noting “these girls were born to lead”.

At HGAED, students are passionate about issues affecting women. This year we were honoured to host an event with

Wellbeing of Women as part of their #Just a Period campaign. We were honoured that the Royal Patron of Wellbeing of Women, Her Royal Highness Duchess of Edinburgh joined the session alongside Professor Dame Lesley Regan, a global expert in gynecology. Students spoke passionately and honesty and were keen to share their experiences with the wider

academy community. Janet Lesley, the Chief Executive of Wellbeing of Women said “we could not have wished for a more passionate, inspired and thoughtful group of young women.”

At HGAED we are determined every student will excel and will lead in their communities and beyond.

outcomes for students and a standard pass rate of 77% across all GCSE grades which is well above the national average of 67%.

The School is above national averages in a key range of attainment outcomes based on figures from last year and we anticipate that, once all the national data is known, results will continue to be well above average for boys.

“Find Your Thing at Alleyn’s”

drama, dance, and sports, encouraging pupils to both explore new interests and excel in their chosen fields. Community connection is also a cornerstone of Alleyn’s. Pupils actively participate in partnership initiatives, including mentoring, fundraising and volunteering.

True to its values, Alleyn’s aims to foster inclusivity working closely with Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion leaders across both the pupil and staff communities.

At Alleyn’s, the commitment to fostering the full potential of every pupil is reflected in a holistic approach to development. This educational philosophy seamlessly integrates academic excellence, co-curricular engagement, community service, health and fitness, spirituality, environmental responsibility, and creative expression.

The goal is to equip pupils with the knowledge and skills to thrive academically while providing the freedom and encouragement to explore cocurricular life, and with the wisdom and character to become resilient and kind adults and to go on to make meaningful contributions to society.

The school’s co-educational model fosters a learning environment where pupils collaborate, inspire one another, and develop a deep understanding of equality and individuality. This foundation builds the character and empathy essential for success both during and beyond their school years.

Education at Alleyn’s is about more than just academics—it’s about applying knowledge to make a positive impact on the world, both now and in the future.

In exploring and seeking solutions for tangible, real life issues pupils embrace diversity, enrich perspectives, encourage collaboration and this gives them the Alleyn’s ability to go out into the world, confidently and fearlessly.

The School’s academic achievements are exceptional and are seen as a byproduct of an outstanding education. But the joy of learning is what Alleyn’s truly aspires to, as pupils push beyond the curriculum, engaging in exciting projects like satellite launches through the

CanSat competition, competing in Maths and Language Olympiads, and hosting International Model United Nations conferences.

Come and experience it for yourself at the next open day.

18 OPINION

Comment

T

he release of the Grenfell Inquiry report this week is a stark reminder of the terrible cost of failure.

My heart goes out to the survivors, the families of the 72 people who lost their lives, and the wider Grenfell community Children, parents, friends and neighbours died in a horrific tragedy that should never have happened.

The report makes clear that each one of those 72 deaths was entirely avoidable, and the residents of Grenfell Tower were let down time and again by the Government and institutions that should have protected them.

It is a source of national shame that the dangers of combustible cladding were known to companies for decades.

Residents had been raising the alarm for years but were ignored and disregarded – nothing was done then - and still no one has been held to account now.

The Grenfell community has campaigned tirelessly and demonstrated enormous strength and courage in giving evidence to the Inquiry and in their ongoing fight for justice and systemic change.

This report must mark the turning point in our national story.

Miatta fahnbulleh

MP for Peckham

‘After Lakanal fire opportunities were squandered’ Be a turning point for accountability and justice.

It must be the moment we reflect and act on the state of social justice in our country. Where working class people and people of colour have their voices ignored and dismissed. How residents in a housing block in one of the richest parts of the land were treated as second class citizens. How we treat those who raise safety concerns at the heart of our most powerful institutions

In Peckham this month we are also deeply saddened by the passing of the 15th anniversary of the Lakanal House fire. The loss of three women and three children still weighs heavily on our community. The Grenfell report lays bare what we all knew – that in the years which followed Lakanal the Conservative government squandered opportunities to bring in the regulations needed to prevent another scandal. The pain of this

All Londoners deserve to live somewhere safe, but for us in Southwark we know the risks from fires. Many here will remember the terrible fire at Lakanall House in 2009 where six people lost their lives in a high-rise tower – where the flames spread through the flammable cladding in minutes. As your London Assembly Member, I will push for a real step-change in building safety.

The report made clear that Londoners have seen incompetence, calculated dishonesty and greed from the building industry. It found that building companies Arconic, Kingspan and Celotex were able to obtain misleading certificates relating to their products.

This serious failure shows that we

need a proper construction regulator to ensure materials comply with laws, regulations and industry norms.

Successive Governments deregulated the economy – leaving industry with too long a leash to ignore our safety.

The Inquiry made clear that the building regulations from Government were unclear and set at too low a bar, allowing private firms to exploit loopholes that should have been closed.

On top of this, Kensington and Chelsea council was not listening to tenants.

Their Tenant Management Organisation was condemned by the inquiry, who said they concealed fire safety matters and treated fire safety as an inconvenience.

The Prime Minister has been clear that he is taking immediate action

knowledge is acutely felt here today.

This Labour government has vowed we will learn these lessons once and for all.

All companies implicated in the Grenfell report will be banned from receiving government contracts. The Metropolitan Police and prosecutors will be supported in completing their investigations and to bring criminal sanctions where appropriate. The work to remove existing dangerous

‘Grenfell Tower Inquiry shows we need a proper construction regulator’ M y thoughts have been with the Grenfell community following the release of the Inquiry report into the failures that led to this tragedy.

The past seven years have been immensely painful for the bereaved and survivors of the fire, along with those who witnessed it in 2017. I applaud their courage in pushing for truth and justice through the Grenfell Tower Inquiry.

All 72 deaths were avoidable.

The report reveals the disaster was the product of ‘decades of failure’ dating back to the 1990s.

We must make sure that tragedies like these can never happen again.

Londoners need to see change.

cladding across the country will be accelerated and more support put in place for leaseholders trapped in dangerous flats.

The Government will consider all 58 of the Inquiry’s recommendations in detail and will respond in full within six months. The 72 people lost that night can never be forgotten. Actions, not words, honour their memory and ensure what happened on 14 June 2017 never happens again.

marina ahmAd

GLA Member for Southwark & Lambeth to clear up the industry whilst sorting out councils so they cannot ignore residents’ safety concerns.

On top of that, I want to see unsafe cladding taken off buildings that still have them – there are too many of these in London. The recent fire in Dagenham has shown that we must get rid of the danger.

I want to see the Met make swift progress on investigating corporate manslaughter, gross negligence manslaughter, fraud and health and safety offences, with prosecutions brought to hold people to account.

Grenfell families have been waiting seven years for truth and justice, I do not want them to wait for much longer.

OPINION 19

Hundreds flock to a food bank’s side after it was raided - proving society’s moral compass is still intact

a

Peckham food bank’s office, which provides hundreds with emergency supplies every week, was broken into this week - but the community was having none of it.

Southwark Foodbank called the News after arriving at work on Monday to find the place had been completely bled dry.

Stock totalling around £3,000 was gone, including a work laptop and phone. This is one of the main food banks serving Southwark’s most needy and they had nothing left.

The worst part of it all, perhaps, is if the thieves were desperate for food themselves, they could have waited until the food bank opened as they give these parcels out for free.

And it wasn’t just a spontaneous swipe either; it appeared to be a whole operation.

Video footage showed the thieves wedging open the door going back and forth ‘for hours’, grabbing anything they could get their hands on until the shelves were empty.

On hearing a story like this, you have to ask yourself: is this what society has become?

A not-for-profit organisation, whose sole purpose is to ensure people in a tough spot can still eat and wash regardless of how little money they may have, is robbed of the little it has.

Everyone can agree it’s terrible. But it does beg the question of how desperate and detached from reality the perpetrators were that this was their target.

Thankfully, the publicity has revealed that most of society’s moral compass is still intact. Following the news, hundreds of people took to social media to ask how they could help and where they could donate.

The food bank volunteers have come out to say how grateful they are and will be sharing the exact figures of how much they’ve made soon.

We hope they have made enough to recover their stock so they can carry on being a lifeline to so many.

Regardless of how stable or comfortable our own lives might be right now, we have a duty to protect these organisations, because no one ever knows when they might need them - and also because we need as a society to look after the most needy. This is what food banks are all about it, and you wonder how the thieves can just disregard that fact.

ARTS 21

what’s on

in Southwark

From Bermondsey to Rogues Gallery After a lot of Perry’s teenage years were shared between growing up on Silwood Estate and being initiated into the world of crime in various borstals, he was then in and out of prison for most of his adult life. But for a long time now he has been establishing himself as an artist in order to show how being creative is a good thing for change as long as there are outlets for offenders with artistic talent to show their work, writes Michael Holland.

University.

These days Perry is a free man working at a job while also making time to create new artworks. But now there is a project that he is working with that brings together everything that is close to his heart - hope for artists inside who want to change their lives around. That project is Rogues Gallery.

‘I was approached by Kate at Gartree Galleries who was curating works from exoffenders and it grew from that,’ he reveals while scrolling through his phone to show me some of the work these people have created. ‘They hope to take up from where Koestler stops, because after release there is no real support for those wanting to make something from art. Rogues Gallery hopes to have pop-up exhibitions to help sell artists’ work and provide an income of sorts to those just coming home.’

Those involved, along with Gartree Galleries, want to link up with other galleries, artists, and institutions to help ease these artists back into society with better opportunities. Artists, Perry adds, ‘that have had unique life experiences and can articulate these through their work.’

There will be an exhibition in Shoreditch, the heartland of Outsider Art, where Perry will have some of his paintings exhibited.

And after? ‘I’d like to continue working with Rogues Gallery and make it a success so others coming behind us have a real chance to go on and turn their lives around.

Bit of an uphill battle but one worth fighting.’

‘I’d always been a bit of a doodler, and done Art at school, but had no aspirations to take it further,’ he says. It was not until he found himself in Parkhurst prison that he joined the art class there. ‘My first painting was of the Kent village of Eynsford, with the bridge… I’d spent time there with the kids… I handed it out on a visit and the kids loved it so I done some more; people liked them.’

Painting is a constructive and therapeutic way of passing the time in jail so when Perry could see he was improving and that people liked the art he was producing he says, ‘it became a challenge to keep improving and that’s when I got the bug!’

The budding artist submitted work to the Koestler Arts Annual Exhibition on several occasions, a not-for-profit charity who work on the rehabilitation of prisoners through creativity, and always give feedback from the artist judges.

This feedback is crucial to inmates and is sometimes the only thing that keeps them practising their newly unlocked talent. This motivating inspiration led to Perry studying for a degree with the Open

Closing Time is the final instalment of Death of England, Clint Dyer and Roy Williams’ state-of-the-post-Brexit-dividednation trilogy, writes Mary Bradshaw.

White, working-class Carly and her black mother-in-law, Denise, will argue from the rubble of their failed joint business venture (a florist and a West Indian Café), before they hand over the keys to their shared premises.

The in-the-round stage starts to feel less like its more obvious image of the England flag, and much more like a boxing ring as the pair hurl accusations and comebacks at each other at full volume and breakneck speed. The question of whether their interracial alliance is broken forever looms large throughout the play, and the absence of ‘their man’ Delroy Denise’s son and Carly’s partner, who seems to care more about football

than about the women in his life - is palpable.

Sifting through the detritus of the two previous plays, Closing Time can work as a standalone piece for newcomers to the trilogy, as the story is partly told through flashbacks to significant events. This method gives Sharon Duncan-Brewster (Denise) and Erin Doherty (Carly) the chance to dazzle us with their nano-second character switches as they reenact past conversations. Sudden, dramatic sound and fight-night lighting is used in these moments, but it feels overthe-top and superfluous. The acting can speak for itself.

Amid a peppering of social and political references - overpriced bakery chain Gail’s, Liz Truss, Covid jabs - broader themes emerge, such as the white appropriation of black culture, vacuous virtue signalling, the true meaning of woke, and of tainted reputations (self-inflicted or

Death of England: Closing Time

Soho Death Sharon Duncan-Brewster (Denise) & Erin Doherty (Carly) inherited).

Denise grapples with whether white people and black people can ever truly live and work alongside each other or share experiences and culture - any inherited racist vitriol aside, of course. She points out that despite everything, Carly ‘knew us, but wasn’t us… still didn’t know enough.’

This question will crop up again

and again. Sometimes playfully, like when Duncan-Brewster translates pears as ‘that’s avocados to you’ for a white audience member. And there will be no clear answer. The closest we might get is a taste-of-your-ownmedicine lesson. For Carly, at least.

And a message for the audience to remember.

Carly will realise that even her deepest bottom-of-my-heart

apologies and her most heartfelt protestations will never be enough to restore her reputation and repair the damage she has done (through a vital mistake - the crux of the plot). Denise will tell her: ‘Welcome to the world of black.’ Welcome to the world where the general assumption, everywhere, is that you ‘come from s****’. Where you have to prove yourself and your worth over and over again, day after day. Where you are ‘always feeling about being black.’

This final episode of Death of England is a slick and fast-paced set-to between two women whose dreams are over. It is a little too fast in places and often obstructed by some heavy-handed sound and lighting.

The humour works well overall and gets the audience laughing at themselves and at each other - but it risks over-softening the emotional punches of the more tender moments between Carly and Denise.

Doherty and Duncan-Brewster’s impressive acting and the delicate, difficult questions raised by the script make the play well worth watching.

The trilogy runs until 28 September.

New study for pregnant women with sickle cell disease GUY’S AND St Thomas’ have led the first trial of its kind in the UK, assessing the health benefits for pregnant women with sickle cell disease having regular blood transfusions.

Published in Blood Advances, the new study is helping improve treatments for women with this condition. It paves the way for future studies to show whether pregnant women with sickle cell disease would choose to have planned blood transfusions, and if regular transfusions could help them and their baby remain healthier.

Sickle cell disease is a common inherited condition that causes anaemia, severe pain episodes, and long-term health issues like lung and kidney problems, strokes, and high blood pressure in the lungs. People with the condition produce unusual red blood cells, shaped like a crescent, that can cause problems. Around 110 women with sickle cell become pregnant each year.

In the UK, the standard care for pregnant women with sickle cell disease is to have blood transfusions if they become unwell due to the effects of the condition.

One of the women who took part in the TAPS2 feasibility trial at Guy’s and St Thomas’ was Dr Ore-Ofe Ajeigbe who had regular planned exchange blood transfusions. She had blood tests before each blood transfusion as part of her

involvement in the trial.

Her final blood transfusion was in October 2022 and she gave birth to her healthy baby girl IseOluware in November 2022.

Ore-Ofe said: “I cannot thank the Guy’s and St Thomas’ team enough. They looked after me, and the consultant leading this trial cared about me and my family. He knew I had concerns and called me to reassure me about the transfusions, he really did go above and beyond for me. I never felt like I was a number or just another patient. I will never forget what they did for me.”

Professor Eugene Oteng-Ntim, clinical director of women’s services at Guy’s and St Thomas’ and study lead, said: “As an NHS Trust that treats a large number of sickle cell patients, it’s important to us that we provide the highest quality care to pregnant women and keep them and their baby as safe as possible.

“Through research studies in our maternity service and by offering research opportunities to pregnant women with sickle cell disease, together we can develop understanding and improve treatments for women with the condition.

“We hope that a larger study in the future will tell us whether regular planned blood transfusions improve the outcomes for the mother and their baby, by reducing complications such as preterm delivery and low birth weight.”

Annual Public Meeting

Wednesday 18 September, 6.15 – 7.45pm, in person at St Thomas’ Hospital and online via Microsoft Teams.

Join us at our annual public meeting to find out more about the work we do and our future plans.

OVER 240 organ transplant patients, organ donors and their families from Guy’s and St Thomas’ returned from the British Transplant Games victorious with a total of 97 medals.

The three teams from the Trust which included heart, lung and kidney transplant recipients was one of the biggest at the annual event in Nottingham.

Topping the podium were 30 Evelina London kidney transplant patients, supported by Evelina London Children’s Charity. The group are nicknamed the Evelina VIPs (Very Important Penguins, referring to the hospital’s urology and kidney department). Across the weekend, the team won 12 gold, 10 silver and 21 bronze medals and thanks to their high medal count were named winners of the kidney category at the event.

The group of 3 to 17-year olds, all of whom have received a kidney transplant, competed in multiple events across track and field, archery, cycling, swimming and racquet sports.

The Evelina London kidney transplant service was this country’s first established children’s kidney There will be presentations from our sickle cell, @home and sustainability teams, as well as the opportunity to hear from the Trust Chairman, Chief Executive and Lead Governor.

programme, pioneering children’s transplantation in 1968. There are currently 100 children under the continued care of Evelina London’s Kidney Transplant team.

Evelina London Children’s Charity supports the compassionate, trailblazing care provided by Evelina London, as well as incredible moments like the Evelina VIP families attending the Games.

The two adult teams representing the Trust also returned home decorated in accolades. Guy’s Transplant team, made up of kidney transplant recipients, donors, and dialysis patients, took home 38 medals and had their first ever swim team compete. The Harefield Hamsters, made up of heart and lung transplant patients, took home 16 medals and had 8 first time competitors.

Each year at the British Transplant Games, transplant recipients, donor families, competitors, family members and friends take to the streets of the host city to take part in the emotionallycharged 5K Donor Run, which raises awareness of the benefits of transplantation and pays tribute to organ donors.

port earns sweet vICtory

Dulwich Hamlet forward George Porter

Substitute heads home late winner

By John Kelly hakan hayrEttin praised his side’s response after george porter scored an 85th-minute winner as Dulwich hamlet beat Canvey island 3-2 at park lane at the weekend.

Dulwich led 1-0 and then 2-1 after goals from Luke Wanadio and a Harvey LivingsCorbin own goal.

Porter came on for Stefan Ilic in the 67th minute and scored the winner with a diving header from Jerome Binnom-Williams’ cross.

Dulwich were beaten 1-0 by Letherhead in their previous game in the Isthmian League Premier Division.

“I just felt that after what happened last week at Leatherhead that we had to come here and put in a performance to try to get three points,” Hayrettin said.

“The three points were more important than the performance, in my opinion. We worked hard, we made some mistakes, we could have had some more goals as well.

“I’m just thoroughly pleased for everybody concerned. Tuesday wasn’t a nice feeling at all but to bounce back and get the three points was important.

“The pitch was a leveller. We had a chat about the surface we were going to be playing on, play a bit more direct, obviously it’s no Champion Hill. You’ve sometimes got to use the pitch to your advantage and we did that.

“When they made it 2-2 it was touch and go but our quality came through. George wasn’t quite right on Tuesday, I put him on the bench, but he’s come in and scored the goal.”

Dulwich’s next league game is at home to Horsham on September 21.

Promoted Dulwich finish in style as they relegate opponents

By John Lewis DulwiCh rounDED off their promotion season in Division 1 of the aJ Sports Surrey Championship with an emphatic six wicket victory over old hamptonians in a shortened match, thereby condemning their opponents to relegation last weekend.

Heavy rain in the previous two days had left wet patches on the square, delaying the start and reducing the match to 28 overs per side. Dulwich won the toss and put their opponents in to bat, but were startled to see the openers put on 90 in just 10.2 overs for the first wicket. Ben Chippendale led the way with 61 off just 31 balls, while

his partner scored a more sedate 22 off 34.

But Harrison Perry removed them both in his first over, to make it 95-2 after eleven.

The third wicket fell at 114, but Dylan Mares kept the score moving with 31 off 27 before being the fourth man out at 148 in the eighteenth over.

The Dulwich bowlers then worked their way through the lower order. The last seven wickets went down in ten overs for just 40 runs, and the last four in four overs for fourteen, to see Hamptonians dismissed in the last over for 188, well short of the total they would have needed to survive. Felix Watson-Smyth took two of the wickets, Will Jenkins and Harvey Booth got one each, and skipper Ollie Steele chipped in with a run out. But as so often

the most successful bowler was Ahmed Khan, who took three wickets to raise his tally for the season to 48, the best in the Championship, at the impressive average of 10.90.

The Dulwich reply started badly when Perry was out in the second over, but Steele then joined Kaif Ramzan to add 69 in eight overs for the second wicket.

Ramzan, promoted to take advantage of the powerplay, obliged with 35 off just 22 balls before being run out. Steele also batted aggressively, making 48 off 41 balls, before falling with the score on 98 in the fourteenth over. Jenkins now joined Sam Seecharan, who had started slowly with just four singles off his first 15 balls, but who now went into overdrive, racing to

his half century off just 26 more. Jenkins kept him company in a stand for the fourth wicket of 87 in 11.3 overs before falling for 30 off 34 balls. The target was reached in the next over with 2.4 overs to spare.

Seecharan remained unbeaten on 62, off 50 balls. Despite missing several games due to school commitments or injury he still finished the season with 359 runs at the remarkable average of 89.75 and a strike rate of 117.70.

Dulwich thus finish the season in second place, sixteen points behind Spencer but a massive 51 ahead of Malden Wanderers in third place.

Work now begins to prepare the side for the tougher challenges that they will face in the Premier Division next year.

Ebbsfleet United in the second round qualifying of the FA Cup on September 22.

“I’m really grateful for this opportunity to lead this team and I can’t wait to get started,” Jones said. “The priority is to get on the training pitch and work hard with the players to give them a clear vision of how we want to play.

“Results haven’t been what we would have wanted and we’re all feeling frustrated. However, we’ve got a fantastic squad who are hungry to improve and I’m looking forward to working with them.

“We’ve got a couple of weeks to work with the squad and get across some ideas to them and prepare for Ebbsfleet in the FA Cup.” Rowland announced his resignation last week, with Russell confirming his departure after the Lionesses’ 4-0 defeat in the L&SERWFL Premier Division at the

weekend. “[Sunday] was my last game in charge of Millwall Lionesses as I resigned earlier [last] week and wanted to go out on a high.

Sadly, it wasn’t meant to be,” Russell said.

“This decision was not taken lightly and is absolutely no reflection on the girls or any of the staff associated with the Lionesses.

“In truth, the girls are the real reason I have stayed as long as I have. Getting to know them on a personal level as people as well as players, some of whom I have the utmost respect for in juggling playing, working, being parents, or some of the younger players pursing a future in football juggling around college and working and really making a name for themselves in a first-team environment.

“I wish each and every player success in their lives and playing pathways whatever they decide to do.

“I was with the club in the Women’s Championship in 2018. The working group and I were a driving force in getting them through their rebirth in Tier 6 and promotion to Tier 5 throughout the past five years.

“I have worked with six different managers, four different chairmen, and various members of backroom staff and hundreds of players and if I have positively impacted at least one of them I will consider my time at the Lionesses a success.

“I would like to thank all the players, players’ parents for getting them to training and games, the staff and sponsors for their support and making my time enjoyable.

“I am on an exciting project which I will pursue after a short break. Until then, thank you all.”

Rowland said: “This has not been an

South East Stars clinch home semi

By Graham Hardcastle alEXa StonEhouSE returned a career best 4-27 to help South East Stars clinch a home semi-final in the rachael heyhoe flint trophy as they crushed already confirmed group stage winners northern Diamonds by 156 runs at Durham last weekend.

A season’s best run-a-ball 79 from Alice Davidson-Richards anchored the Stars’ imposing 275-8 in a final round group clash between first and second in the table at the Seat Unique Riverside before left-armer Stonehouse’s opening seven-over burst was key in bowling the Diamonds out for 119 inside 37 overs.

The Diamonds disappointed in what was essentially a dead rubber fixture for them. They failed to match the intensity of the Stars, for whom all-rounder Emma Jones also impressed with a career-best 47.

Both regions finished with nine wins from fourteen games. Diamonds will host Sunrisers in their semi-final on Saturday and Stars will face champions Southern Vipers.

“That was a very good win. We expect a proper fight any time we face the Diamonds, and today’s really pleasing,” Davidson-Richards said.

“We played some good cricket all the way through, and Lex (Stonehouse) up top and our bowling in partnerships put a stranglehold on the game having got enough runs on the board.

“It was quite nice to watch Lex from the slips, to be honest.

“We know she’s got it in her, and she’s getting better with each game. It was really nice to see because we see all the work she puts in behind the scenes.

“For her to come out with four-for today was amazing, and her first spell - 4-17 I think it was - was epic.

“I’ve been pretty frustrated with my season so far. I’ve done ok, but with having a few players away with England it was nice to step up and help the team out.

“Having a home semi-final’s great. It means an extra night at home. Brilliant!

We’ll treat it as any other game and be ready.”

Stars’ semi-final starts at 10.30am in Beckenham.

Millwall Lionesses have new boss after surprise resignations

By John Kelly millwall lionESSES have appointed ted Jones as their new manager after the resignations of joint-managers alex russell and adam rowland.

Jones moves up from Millwall under-18 coach as Millwall Community Trust also confirmed a new Lionesses board, with Jason Vincent appointed general manager.

“Working in this joined up and collaborative manner between coaches and management will help the development across all our women and girls’ teams.” Vincent said.

“Working in this joined up and collaborative manner between coaches and management will help the development across all our women and girls’ teams.”

Jones’s first game in charge will be against

easy decision but I have decided to step away from my role at Millwall Lionesses.

I have given everything to the club I have supported since a lad.

“I won’t delve into it all but it’s just proved too much in the end and I’ve virtually been stripped of my love for coaching football.

“I wish them all the best with future endeavours and hopefully things can change but I will not be the person to do that.”

MCT and the Lionesses said: “Alex and Adam proudly led the club with commitment, dedication and hard work throughout their time in the job, with last season’s Adobe Women’s FA Cup run a particular highlight of their tenure.

“The Trust and The Lionesses wish to thank them for their sterling service and wish them the very best with their future endeavours.”

ChaIrman outlInes transfer vIsIon Lions are identifying young talent with potential sell-on value

Millwall chief James Berylson Inset: Mihailo Ivanovic was one of the younger summer arrivals

By John Kelly millwall Chairman James Berylson has outlined the club’s plan to recruit young players with potential sell-on value as he explained the approach to the summer transfer window.

The Lions signed seven players on permanent deals with five of them aged 25 or under: Japhet Tanganga, Lukas Jensen, Femi Azeez, Daniel Kelly and new club-record buy Mihailo Ivanovic.

Millwall also recruited Calum Scanlon, 19, and Josh Coburn, 21, on loan and while those deals don’t include options to buy, the club will retain interests in them next summer if their spells are successful.

Berylson stressed the strategy includes new signings making a “dayone impact” but that “sustainability and success” will also be built on providing players with the “opportunity to increase their skills as well as overall value”. Berylson said that when the opportunity arises and it makes financial sense for the club, they would sell. This would help Millwall “compete at a high level”.

Millwall turned over a significant profit on Zian Flemming two years after buying him as a 24-year-old for £1.7million from Fortuna Sittard in the Netherlands. Flemming left on loan on deadline day for Burnley in a deal that will become a £7million-plus permanent transfer next summer.

During the window, Millwall also

tied down Romain Esse, 19, and Alfie Massey, to long-term deals.

Berylson started his statement released by the club by remembering Millwall’s No.1 goalkeeper last season.

“I want to begin by thanking our supporters for their unwavering support and for the incredible kindness shown towards the family and friends of Matija Sarkic,” Berylson said.

“Matija will always be a Lion, and with the mural funded by the Millwall Supporters Club he will never be forgotten.

“With the closing of the transfer window, I want to provide an update on the club and how we are looking to build consistency, sustainability, and success. The success of this process is built upon the shoulders of our legacy squad; players who are the standardbearers of what it means to be Millwall – tough, determined warriors who fight for points week after week, and have done so year after year.

“In advance of the transfer period we sat down and identified our top targets – players who could not only make a day-one impact to the squad but also build long-term value – on the pitch as well as financially – for themselves and the club. Identifying these players well in advance allowed us to methodically pursue them in the hope of striking the best agreements for both club and player.

“This is not a zero-sum game. We obviously need to manage costs but we also want players to understand

that they will have an important role within the club and we will provide them training and the opportunity to increase their skills as well as their overall value.

“The window is short – deals need to be made rapidly but not in haste.

Sometimes days or weeks go by without a signing and it feels like nothing is moving in our direction, then just as suddenly agreements are signed and announcements are made.

“This past transfer window followed that pattern. However, I am pleased that this has been one of our most successful windows in terms of acquiring our priority targets.”

After the 3-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday before the international break, Lions head coach Neil Harris hinted he wasn’t happy that Flemming left late on without a direct replacement coming in.

Berylson explained the background to the Flemming deal.

He said: “During the window we also were presented with a substantial bid from Burnley for Zian Flemming. Zian had two great seasons for the club and his reputation on the pitch as well as being a leader in the team did not go unnoticed. In order for Millwall to remain financially sustainable we must be willing to part with some of our best players, as painful as that may be to the club and its supporters.

“Again, this is not a zero-sum game. Millwall receives substantial compensation for a respected player

and Zian moves on to a highly-regarded club with Premier League experience.

“The final piece of this process concerns our home-grown talent. Two of our future stars signed multi-year contracts during the window: Romain Esse and Alfie Massey. Other future stars like Kamarl Grant are honing their skills on loan and will ultimately return to the club with more experience, ready to join the first team.

“Romain, Alfie and Kamarl are all products of our academy system and they continue to grow in ability both technically and tactically. It’s exciting to think what they and other academy graduates will contribute to Millwall’s success on the pitch as they develop further.”

John Berylson died on July 4 2023, with James taking over as chairman.

“It’s been just over a year since the untimely death of my father, John Berylson, and I am determined as ever to carry on his vision and legacy for Millwall.,” Berylson said. “What I’ve outlined above, a consistent process for identifying, acquiring, developing talent, and when the opportunity presents itself and makes sense for club and player, to sell on, will allow Millwall to compete at a high level as well as be financially sustainable going forward.

“In closing, I again want to thank our supporters, especially our 8,000-plus season ticket holders. The energy at The Den is fierce and infectious. With our new additions to the club I know that this excitement will only increase.”

By Alex Grace millwall miDfiElDEr Casper De norre was relieved to get the first Championship win of the season in the bag before the international break after admitting it had been a “frustrating” start to the campaign.

The Lions lost their first two league fixtures after coming from 2-0 down in both but then conceding late against Watford and Bristol City.

Millwall shipped seven goals in those matches but then bounced back with two clean sheets in a row in the 0-0 draw at Hull City and 3-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday at The Den. “It was a little bit frustrating, the start to the season with the last-minute goals against and conceding a lot of goals,” De Norre said. “It was a bit frustrating at times because we never felt like we were less than the opposition, but we still lost the games.

“We got a good result [against Hull] because we couldn’t end up with zero points from three games. That helped with the performance we had against Sheffield Wednesday. Everything came together, and it was a really good performance from the team.”

De Norre also got his first assist of the season when he crossed for Jake Cooper to head in the third off the crossbar to finish the Owls.

“Statistics in football are obviously important,” De Norre said. “To get the assist, the game was already 2-0 to us, but also to get something personal is always a nice feeling. When I chipped the ball over, I was very happy I saw Coops was there. I was happy he headed it in. I was a little bit scared that maybe it didn’t go over the line but, from my point of view, I thought it was in, so I was very happy.”

Lions boss Neil Harris felt that the first two results didn’t reflect his side’s performances. One player who is seeing his displays reflected in numbers is Duncan Watmore, who has scored four goals in four league games to make him joint-top scorer.

“Dunc is a really lovely guy, a really nice guy to play with, on and off the pitch,” De Norre said. “I’m very happy for him because, if he’s in form, you can see what a good player he is. Turning in tight spaces and knowing how to be in the right spot, he’s very calm and composed with his four goals.

“I remember saying to him after

Midfielder got assist as Lions went into break with win the Watford game, for the second goal when he got the ball, if he gets that type of ball then you know most of the time it’s a goal because he’s very calm and composed. I’m happy he’s doing very well.”

The other scorer against the Owls was new forward Josh Coburn, just 24 hours after his arrival on loan from Middlesbrough.

De Norre praised the 21-year-old forward for his ability to adapt so

quickly.

“It’s always a little bit weird when a guy comes in the day before a game and then plays the day after, because you don’t really know each other,” De Norre said. “He was a handful for the defenders. You can see he works hard, and if you give him a little bit of a difficult ball, he makes something out of it.”

Coburn’s presence has also provided a new tactical dynamic for Millwall’s

midfield, with De Norre explaining how the striker’s ability to hold up play creates more space for players like him and George Saville to operate in.

It was Saville’s brilliant pass that set up De Norre to cross for Cooper.

“That’s also another reason we could play a bit more through me or Sav,” De Norre said. “When the opposition sees that he can hold the ball and make something out of it, they are going to drop a little bit, which means there will

be more space for the midfielders to play.”

Millwall host Luton Town on Saturday at 12.30pm.

De Norre added: “Obviously the season is so long. After the Wednesday game there were still 42 more games, but you want to get that first win of the season early. And with the break, it was important to get a good feeling going into it. It’s a nice feeling to finally get that win.”

Chopper set Dunc target - before forward enjoys best career start

By John Kelly nEil harriS set Duncan watmore a target before the season began - and the millwall attacker has enjoyed his best scoring start to a campaign in his twelve years in professional football.

Watmore, 30, scored the second in the 3-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday at The Den before the international break.

It was his fourth goal in four Championship games and he also won the club’s goal of the month for his brilliant volley against Bristol City.

Watmore was brought to the club by Gary Rowett from Middlesbrough in January 2023 but under Harris is in some of the best form of his career.

Watmore has been playing on the left in a 4-2-3-1 formation but has been given the freedom to go inside. It was from an inside-right position that Watmore picked up the ball against the Owls before he ran into the box and played a perfect low pass to the back post for Josh Coburn to put Millwall 1-0 up.

Watmore’s goal was a close-range finish after the ball broke to him from a corner.

Harris is clearly a fan of the former Sunderland forward.

“He’s a good Millwall wide player, isn’t he. When we talk about wide players people get stuck a little bit with, wingers have to go round the outside and cross balls or whatever at Millwall. No, no, the game’s changed,

the game’s changed hugely,” Harris said.

“We saw two wide players that like to go inside, accept the ball, play in tight areas, be a goal threat. Romain [Esse] and Duncan showed their qualities.

“Both have started this season unbelievably well. Romain’s signed a new contract, which I’m extremely proud of for him.

“And Duncan, I set him a task, I set him a challenge - scoring goals.

Because he should score goals in a Neil Harris team. Ultimately the freedom I’ve given him to run forward and play, he should score goals. He’s playing with great belief.

“It’s not just the goal but the assist as well was outstanding.”

The win against the Owls was

Millwall’s first in the league this season.

Harris said: “It gives confidence to everybody, doesn’t it. It’s fine me telling the players how well they’ve played and how good they’ve done and showing them that we’re top of the league for expected goals andclearcut chances created, etc. But ultimately everyone wants points on the board.

“It was an outstanding performance and it does give the stadium confidence, it gives the fans confidence in the team and it shows the importance of the core group of players that we have. It’s the core group of players that played in the first three games and played extremely well and [against Wednesday] they played extremely well and we got the end product out of it.”

PORT EARNS SWEET VICTORY

‘last few days were CraZy’ Lions boss relieved window is closed but criticises system

Neil Harris saw Zian Flemming leave on deadline day

EXCLUSiVE

By Alex Grace millwall hEaD coach neil harris is relieved the transfer window is closed - as he criticised the current system which he believes creates unnecessary disruption for clubs.

The Lions were already three Championship games into their campaign when Burnley put in a late bid for Zian Flemming and he left on deadline day.

It left Millwall no time to recruit a direct replacement for the Dutchman, though they did bring in strikers Josh Coburn and Mihailo Ivanovic.

Other managers such as Sheffield United’s Chris Wilder have also been critical of the timing of the window

closing, and Harris agrees.

“Yes, definitely,” Harris said. “I just want to echo something that I thought Chris Wilder articulated very well last week about the transfer window. He talked about the carnage that is caused by the transfer window on football clubs, on managers, on coaching staff - it’s a very tough period for everybody.”

Harris added: “What I’d like to say about that and place on record is why the window doesn’t close before the season starts is baffling. It can only have been made up and continues to be made up by people who do not understand football or people who don’t have football clubs’ best interests at heart.

“The last few days were crazy and very difficult for everybody.”

Now that the window has closed,

Harris is happy to shift his full focus back to football, without the distraction of potential last-minute deals and changes to his squad.

“I’m delighted the window is shut, and we can get back to concentrating on football,” Harris said. “And delighted we got to Saturday morning leading into Sheffield Wednesday [before the international break] with clarity in the building.”

Harris acknowledged that his squad has faced challenges in the opening weeks of the season, particularly with injuries and suspensions to key players including Billy Mitchell and Japhet Tangnaga and the the departure of Flemming.

“For me, our squad has been slightly affected by injuries to certain personnel.

an hour before the window shuts, is someone very difficult to replace,” Harris said.

“You are always hopeful that you don’t get injuries to players in the same positions, and then you find yourself a little bit short between windows. But that’s my job - to adapt if need be in personnel and shape.”

Meanwhile, Ivanovic will see a specialist this week before it is determined when he is likely to be available to make his debut.

Ivanovic, 19, joined up with the Serbian squad ahead of their Nations League games before he left the camp to return to London. Harris said after the win over Sheffield Wednesday a metatarsal injury could keep the forward out for eight weeks.

Bees clinch deal for Lion

By John Kelly millwall DEfEnDEr Josh Stephenson is set to complete his move to Brentford.

Versatile defender Stephenson captained the Lions under-18 side as they won the Professional Development League Cup last season.

Stephenson was one of the stars of the competition as Larry McAvoy and Chris Perry’s side also reached the semi-finals of the FA Youth Cup before losing to Leeds United.

Brentford agreed a deal for Stephenson in July but the move was delayed as the youngster had a back injury.

The parties have completed the paperwork and the Bees are set to confirm the deal this week.

Stephenson is expected to initially join Brentford’s B team.

Millwall agreed long-term deals with two academy graduates in the summer as Romain Esse and Alfie Massey committed their futures to the club.

Millwall had also offered Stephenson a deal.

While not specifically talking about Stephenson, Lions boss Neil Harris referenced young players having their heads turned when he discussed the agreement with Massey.

“He knows his pathways with us,” Harris said of Massey. “What we wanted to do as a football club is reward that and show that pathway, not just to him but to the other lads.

“We’ve had contractual issues over the summer where maybe some lads thought the grass was greener on the other side. Well more fool you – look at Alfie Massey.

“I gave him his opportunity, as I promised the young lads would get their opportunity when they deserve it. He has took it and signed a new three-year contract for the football club.

“He deserves it because I believe in him, we believe in him and we want to see him flourish.”

Millwall have seen several young stars picked off by top-flight clubs in recent seasons, after Darko Gyabi and Samuel Edozie moved to Manchester City and Zak Lovelace to Glasgow Rangers.
