Subject: RE: Community Safety Risk Alert : Greenland Dock to Tesco Link under Redriff Road - Rotherhithe Residents' Serious Concerns regarding Tesco Superstore's Expansion Project
Kam Thank you for your e-mail regarding the temporary access route to/from Greenland Dock, via the underpass, and further to our brief meeting this morning I hope that the following may provide some clarity and allay concerns. The temporary access route has been formed to allow works to proceed in extending the Tesco store sideways on the elevation facing out to Redriff Road. Once the new structure is complete, scheduled for the middle of next year, then the new permanent access route will be opened; this new permanent route takes a more direct line to the underpass than the temporary one, in front of the new sub-station rather than behind it, and there has been a good deal of consultation regarding the design of this; initial designs were amended and re-presented in light of comments received. With regard to the temporary access route, whilst there is not a clear line of sight to the underpass, a 2 metre tarmac pathway has been constructed which is very brightly illuminated with bulkhead lighting the full length of the hoarding. A curved mirror has been installed at the entrance to the underpass to improve visibility and early next week a CCTV camera is being installed positioned to look both into the underpass and along the access route; this camera will be set to record 24 hours a day and be linked into the shopping centre’s own recording system and security control room. (The underpass itself is not within the centre’s ownership as you are aware and I recall there was a proposal from the Rotherhithe Community Safety Forum for Southwark Council to install CCTV in this area but assume that this is not likely to happen in the very near future). Directional signage will also be installed shortly and the access route will be cleaned daily. Finally I have put a call into Philip Murphy to discuss with him whether there are any other additional measures that might be considered which would promote safe use of the temporary access route. I am happy to discuss any of the above in more detail should anyone should wish to do so and have detailed my contact telephone number below. Best regards, Ian Ian Moore Centre Manager, Surrey Quays Shopping Centre Tel. no. 020 7237 5282 4) Murder Hunt in Rotherhithe Web Link (Southwark Weekender @ 26-10-2007) : http://www.southwarknews.co.uk/00,news,7663,440,00.htm
News Update (Southwark News @ 8-11-2007 (Page 6)) : 'Dock Body Charges' - Two men accused of killing Chinese student Xing Xing Xie and dumping her headless body in Rotherhithe's South Dock have appeared at the Old Bailey.
5) Change of Legal Age Limit for Buying Cigerattes in England from 16 to 18
6) Russia Dock Woodland - Help Call Point being erected at the junction of Waterman's Walk and Lady Dock Path, close to the CCTV Camera and St. John's Bridge
Message: Nov 05 2007, 11:53 AM From: "Murphy, Philip" To: "Kam Hong Leung" Subject: ..... 'Help Call Point' ..... hi Kam,
The Help Call Point is a way of empowering the community by allowing them to speak directly to a qualified CCTV controler. So if there are for sake of argument asb mopeds are going around RDW then the CCTV control room can be contacted so they can target their systems. Also if someone is feeling threatened then the CCTV operator will be able to do a better job of keeping an eye out.
Hope this is of help.
thanks
Philip Murphy

Subject: Stave Hill Saturdays Hello the Stave Hill Saturday crew.... Some diary dates for you, and news from the park. Diary dates... Saturday 10th November: hedgelaying and woodland management. We will be creating a new hedge at one of the site entrances. This will not only benefit wildlife, but will also improve access and be visually stunning! We will also be clearing the adjacent woodland to improve growing conditions for the bluebells and primroses. We will be having extra help from GoLondon volunteers, so we should be able to get loads done! Kids@StaveHill will be creating ghastly goblins for site decor. This task will run until 3pm, as there will be a formal meeting of Friends Of Stave Hill. The meeting will start at 3pm and finish at 4pm. An agenda is attached for those wishing to attend. Also attached is a directions map for new volunteers. Saturday 8th December: a SHED day. We will be working on the visitor centre...chinking here, painting there. Time to make the building draughtproof, and move on to the final stages. Kids@StaveHill will be creating some stained glass (painted perspex!) windows. The task will finish at 3pm, so that we can toast our successful Stave Hill year with mulled wine and mince pies. The news.... Work on SHED proceeds apace...prepare to be very impressed by the re configured loo! Now totally accessible. The lads on Community Punishment are doing a grand job chinking the front of the building. The outhouse is scheduled to have it's green roof installed on the 14th October. A group of mums and kids is going to take over the allotment. Stave Hill Allotment Kids, SHAK, have been on site, measuring up and planning planting. This is great news, as the allotment will be able to realise it's full potential. Put your veg orders in now! With the approach of autumn, tasks on site have been focused on preparing the site for winter sleep. Lots of woodland clearance, final cuts of meadows, and planting of wildflowers to bloom next year. This is the time of year when we crawl into the usually inaccessible areas and clear them out. We will be doing a fungi survey, and mucking around with the compost bins. Our little hedgehog mob are still about, although we've had a few problems with cat burglers in the feeding stations! Over the next month we will be building hibernation boxes, to be strategically placed on site. Thanks to Lorraine, a local resident, all our foxes are bright eyed and bushy tailed. The new management plan will shortly be ready for publication....all ready for the HLF funding bid, applying for a Green Pennant award, and applying for Local Nature Reserve status. Watch this space! If you would like to be removed from this mailing list, please let me know. See you all soon... Rebeka REFERENCE LIST

Subject: Russia Dock Woodland : Fallen Trees Risk Alert
Hello Rosalie.
On walking the entire length of Russia Dock Woodland this morning, there now seems to be several trees that have either fallen completely to the ground or some that have fallen but are being held up by the trees that are directly next to them, this i am sure will put added stress on the adjoining tree and will have a knock on effect. one tree has fallen at a 45 degree angle close to Redriff Bridge, and is only being supported by one of the branches which is wedged into the woodlands lighting support column. could we look at this a.s.a.p. please.
many thanks...steve f.o.r.d.w.
11) Yobs Shrug Off ASBOs and Run Riot in Streets [Source : METRO @ 24-7-2007 (Page 7)]
A hardcore of offenders is blamed for much of the disorder on Britain's streets, in the study by Parliament's Public Accounts Committee. The Government is accused of failing to provide an effective response to anti-social behaviour, which costs the country £3.4billion every year. Committee chairman Edward Leigh said: 'After dark, our city and town centres are fast becoming No-Go Areas. 'No civilised country should have to put up with what can seem like an occupying army loose in the streets.' The committee calls for more people breaching their ASBOs to be prosecuted in crown courts and given jail sentences. Home Office minister Tony McNulty said 53 new 'Family Intervention Projects', where ASBOs are twinned with supervision, were being targeted at the worst families. He defended the Government's 'twin-track approach of support and enforcement'. 12) "FREE Pet Micro-Chipping by RSPCA" & Southwark Council's "Flag The Poo Public Health Campaign" at Southwark Park on 11-8-2007 (Saturday) from 11am to 3pm

Message: Jul 31 2007, 11:34 AM From: "Gomez, Eva" To: info@timeandtalents.org.uk, cgp.mail@virgin.net, "Glover, Gary" , veritymihai@bedehouse.org, donnawallace@bedehouse.org, kam@khleung.fsnet.co.uk Cc: "Nicholls, Katie" , "Walpole, Will" , "Hook, Jeffrey" , "Blango, Columba" , "Yates, Anne" Subject: event and poster Dear all I would like to inform you of an event that will be taking place next August 11 at Southwark park (opposite the back of the children's play area next to the cafe by Gomm gate) from 11 am until 3 pm. The main aim of the event is to raise awareness amongst dog owners of the dog fouling problem. In order to do so we will be “flagging the poo”. The aim is to mark all the examples of dog mess found using brightly coloured flags. The idea is to dramatise and illustrate the extent of the problem to dog owners, and perhaps to shame the irresponsible ones into improving their behaviour. The RSPCA will be offering free microchipping, which normally costs £30-£40 at the vets, so it's a great incentive for dog (and cat) owners to pop along. We will also be given free poop scoop bags and information on the risks of dog fouling. So if you could please spread the word, especially amongst people who own dogs or cats and would like to have them microchipped, it would be great. I have attached a poster that you might want to print and put up in your notice boards. Gary or Kam just wondering if you have any contacts within TNRA's that you could forward this onto. If you have any questions you can call me on 02075254259. Thanks Eva Eva Gomez http://www.southwark.gov.uk/YourServices/environment/CampaignsandEducation/ END OF PART (1)

hello kam,
Could you please put this on your website. we are looking at getting local kids involved more with cricket in the rotherhithe area, what with the new sports complex at mellish fields taking place probably in september?, there is a golden opportunity to join forces with the people at burgess park where Colin Hunte is the manager. Colin invited me down to their new cricket complex a couple of months ago, and it is very impressive, and well run. Colin is keen to get youngsters from all over southwark along to their training facilities at burgess park (neate street) to get them to try cricket for probably the first time, all equipment is supplied and top quality coaching is available with current and ex cricket internationals coming along to give their time to this great sport.
I can see a great future in this....
