I have been told before that people enjoy reading what I write. I don't understand why as I like to think I am a simple soul and like to keep my writing simple - though I can digress if not careful as one line of thought starts of another.

Sadly in Southwark the most popular development tends to be towards gated communities, and for communities to lock the outside world out. Especially private developments but also some housing associations. Some of our own residents favour this approach as a way of stopping people from coming onto the estate. However because of the layout of the estate.
Fortunately as an organisation we are clued up on many of the projects in the borough. We are active in several forums, as well as members of the local voluntary support organisation. So we are usually informed early on when something is happening. The real skill is knowing when we can tap into these projects.
