Stay Well This Winter - get your flu vaccination GP Practices in North Norfolk and rural Broadland are urging patients to help themselves stay well this winter by booking in for a free NHS flu vaccination.
Hayes + Storr – All you’ll ever need!
Solicitors & Notaries With over 35 specialist lawyers to assist you, why look anywhere else? Call Sheringham – 01263 825959 www.hayesandstorr.co.uk law.sheringham@hayes-storr.com
People with serious health conditions, adults over 65, some carers and healthy children between the age of 2 and 4 all qualify for one free from the NHS.
Pregnant women and children in primary school years one and two are also eligible. The call from local GP Practices comes just as the NHS prepares to launch a major new health campaign called Stay Well This Winter.
The very first message of this new campaign will be about flu:
“Don’t put it off. Take up the offer from your GP as soon as you can”
GPs and nurses at your local medical practice are geared up to vaccinate patients over the coming weeks. Many have arranged special flu vaccination sessions.
Jackie Schneider, nurse member of the Governing Body at NHS North Norfolk Clinical Commissioning Group and its Head of Patient Safety and Clinical Quality, said “Dedicated ‘flu clinics are run by almost all GP practices up and down the country. If you book a slot at a special clinic, you can ensure you get the vaccine early and have the maximum benefit through the autumn and winter months. We strongly urge everyone who meets the NHS eligibility criteria to ring their GP Practice and make sure they get vaccinated promptly.”

The clinics – as experienced patients will know – are usually very busy and well co-ordinated affairs. Teams of doctors and nurses are on hand to vaccinate a patient every two minutes or so.
The flu jab for adults – and nasal sprays for children – can be a lifesaver. It is safe and it cannot give you flu, because it does not contain live viruses.
Flu is not like a bad cold, it is a debilitating condition which affects the whole body. It can increase the risk of developing more serious illnesses such as bronchitis and pneumonia, or can make existing conditions worse. Serious cases of flu can result in being admitted to hospital, and in some instances could be fatal.
Jon Cox, Consultant from Public Health Norfolk, said “As we age our immune systems become less effective, so it is important that patients over 65 take advantage of the flu jab.
“It’s also important that pregnant mums, people with underlying long-term health problems and young children have the vaccine because they are more vulnerable to serious illness if they catch flu.
“The vaccine is the best possible protection against the flu virus. Even if you have had the vaccination before, because the type of virus in circulation changes every year, it is important that you get the jab every winter.

Cromer Walkers Are Welcome
News & Festival Events
Cromer Walkers Are Welcome are a small but busy team aiming to make Cromer a first class destination for walkers. Cromer is at the hub of several long distance paths, and with excellent rail and bus services, it is the perfect place to leave the car behind, stay for a few days, enjoy the friendly local atmosphere and experience the superb coastal scenery.
It has been a busy year so far, just some of our ongoing projects include walkers information boards around town, window stickers for walker friendly businesses and accommodation providers, supporting the Nook Hospice charity walkers, reporting footpath & littering problems with resultant NNDC action, activities at the Crab & Lobster Festival, Cromer Carnival, Coast Festival and North East Norfolk Walking Festival and Cromer walking film.
We have benefited from excellent help and support from North Norfolk Information Centre staff who host our display stand with free walkers information packs, more than 1200 gone so far!
Also available is our delightful little Cromer Sheringham walkers passport, packed full of local information, and at only £1 a perfect souvenir/stocking filler.
Early and late season visitors are a great boon to our economy, and we hope to encourage walkers to experience the local and long distance footpath network, welcoming pubs, great seafood and of course our health-giving air and unforgettable scenery!

Formed after World War Two the organisation has a fleet of over 130 aircraft delivering food, aid and medical assistance, and plays a key role in disaster response including vital help following the Nepal earthquakes and the Indian tsunami’s impact in Sumatra.
This was an interesting and fact-filled talk and Mr Balfour was warmly thanked on behalf of the Club by Ken Macnish, himself a former RAF navigator.

At its October meeting at the Links Hotel West Runton, Cromer and Sheringham Probus Club heard how this inaccessibility is being bridged by the Mission Aviation Fellowship. The speaker, David Balfour, explained how the link between giving and receiving aid is met by this dedicated Christian organisation which provides aviation, communication and learning technology services to more than a thousand humanitarian agencies as well as isolated missionaries and indigenous villagers in the world’s most remote areas. Many of these services involve flying into steep, short or otherwise difficult runways and the organisation is also equipped with amphibious aircraft capable of reaching flooded areas such as Bangladesh.
Our next meeting is on November 3rd when the speaker, PC Barrie Creswell, will be dealing with much more local issues in talking to us about ‘ Police work in N. Norfolk’. If you are unable to join us for that, we are holding an informal get-together for coffee (other drinks and food available!) at the Hole-in-One adjacent to The Links at 10.30 am on November 10th.
SHERINGHAM & CROMER LIONS
On Saturday 10 October, Sheringham & Cromer Lions Club held another of their Race Nights at The Morley Club.
Before the first race, their Immediate Past Present Derick Bowler had the pleasure of presenting two cheques.
The first was a cheque for £1050, which was presented to Julie Lythgoe, who received it on behalf of the Norfolk & Norwich Association for the Blind, and the second cheque for £500 was presented to James Edghill, who received it in on behalf of The East Anglian Air Ambulance. The monies donated were raised over the past year by the Club holding street collections, having their tombola stall at various events and by holding fundraising evenings such as Race Nights and Quiz Nights. Following the presentations, the Club carried on with the Race Night and, by the end of the evening, they had made a profit of just under £300.
Club members would like to thank all those that attended and hope they enjoyed the evening. Club members would also like to thank the Morley Club for allowing them to hold the event and Hughes, Cromer for the loan of the large television and DVD player.
On the evening of 29 September, Sheringham & Cromer Lions held a Charity Fashion Show courtesy of M & Co, Cromer where the Club made £90 for charity.
100% of the money raised at Sheringham & Cromer Lions Club fundraising events are donated to charity, nothing is deducted for administration. All administration costs are met by Club members. This year the Club is raising money for the North Norfolk Branch of The Multiple Sclerosis Society and/or local Lions causes.
If you would like to know more about the Lions please ask a Club member next time you see him or her out collecting, or contact Lion Brian on 01263 821276 or email brihaz@btinternet.com.

You Can’t Stop The Beat!
Those looking for a great night out Cromer have not got long to wait for an exhilarating night of live music, and all in aid of a great cause.
‘You Can’t Stop The Beat’ will take place at Cromer Community Centre on the evening of Friday 6 November. The profits will go to Campaign Kos, which is dedicated to supporting refugees through the current crisis in the Mediterranean.
Cromer Social Services was responsible for last year’s wildly successful Sweetbeats gig, the proceeds from which did much to help the Cromer Skatepark campaign achieve its financial target. The Piratones, from Norwich, began life as an
and Fighting Fit Martial Arts in Cromer, and from the Vinyl Vault in Holt. Ticket numbers are limited, but should there be any left on the night, these will be made available on the door.
You can find out more about the gig and Cromer Social Services on their FaceBook page, or by following them on Twitter @CromerSocSer
Tickets are selling for a minimum donation of £6, and are available from both the Wellington

The live music will be accompanied by visuals in the form of films, and acclaimed Norwich DJ Kev O’Connor will be performing in between sets. There will also be a raffle - please contact Cromer Social Services (see below) to donate prizes.
The event is the brainchild of Cromer Social Services, a group of Cromer residents united by the common aims of organising social events in the town while raising money for good causes at the same time. They describe themselves as ‘a motley and diverse bunch, but with a shared love of dancing’.

Local disaster movie for Northrepps!
The next film being put on by Northrepps Film Society is a true local disaster movie: Floods of East Anglia, 1912-53.
Consisting mainly of archive news footage, this vividly recalls some of the sea’s most dramatic invasions of our coast and shows the chaos caused as homes and livelihoods are swept away. As it lasts little more than an hour it will be preceded by a second, shorter film of local interest to fill out the evening.
The show is on Thursday 12 November (not the first Thursday of the month, as usual) when doors at Northrepps Village Hall open at 7pm with drinks for sale until the first film starts at 7.30pm. Tickets are £5 payable at the door. We hope to see you there! For more details see www.northreppsfilmsociety.co.uk.

Council launches Community Leisure Hub in Erpingham
North Norfolk District Council (NNDC) is pleased to announce the launch of a ‘Community Leisure Hub’ in Erpingham, the second of its kind in north Norfolk.
The Community Leisure Hub will be self-sustainable and will be run by a voluntary committee from the participants of the classes. It will offer Walking Football (at the Multi Use Games Area) and Pilates (in the Village Hall).
The launch of the hub follows on from the Council’s ‘Sports Clubs and Hubs’ project which started in January 2015 to help more local people get in to sport with a variety of different activities specifically designed for the over 50s.
The project, which was designed in response to local demand, was made possible thanks to £211,512 of National Lottery funding from Sport England’s Community Sport Activation Fund.
Classes ranging from Belly Dancing to Badminton have been offered at community hubs across the District.
The Council is delighted that the hub at Erpingham follows on from the success of the Fit and Active Hub in Holt where volunteers have taken the lead and steps to provide sustainable sports activity programmes for the community.
Cllr. Becky Palmer, Cabinet Member for Leisure and Cultural Services said “I am delighted to see that the Council’s Sports and Hubs project is enabling local people to take on the running of sporting activities within their own communities. The creation of the hubs aims to bring local people together and to increase participation in sports in rural areas by making it easier to get involved and get active.”
For more details about the activities that will be run by the hub, please contact: Ann Goreham (anngoreham1@btinternet.com)

Older People’s Day 2015
Fun and Finger Food were the words on everyone’s lips at Sheringham Community centre in October. Age was again proven to be just a number as everyone at Age Concern North Norfolk helped celebrate Older People’s Day. Activities, cake and song and dance were enjoyed by an attendance of nearly a 100 people, of various ages.
The event was free to attend and there were information stands to help allow people access to, and have knowledge of, local services that can help them in later life. These stands included Ben’s Workforce, North Norfolk Community Transport, Age Concern North Norfolk Day Centre and the North Norfolk District Council’s Care and Repair Team. As well as this there was plenty of advice on hand in the form of The Older People’s Forum, Age UK Norfolk, a Community Support Officer from the Police and the Coordinator of the scheme Be Ready for It. A volunteer for North Norfolk Stories was also on hand to introduce, and to encourage contributors, to their Oral History project, which takes audio recordings of memories from people who have lived and worked in the area so they can put them towards an exhibition starting in the New Year.
It was an inspiring event to be a part of and to see that a part of our society all too easily overlooked, and dismissed, had a voice of their own. All who attended were as strong and full of life, with a drive to succeed and determination to live life to the full, as they were (in some cases) 80 years previously - putting many of the younger generations to shame A SERIES OF DEMONSTRATIONS & ILLUSTRATED TALKS ON GARDEN PLANNING
(especially on the dance floor) and proving once again that age need not be a barrier to a happy later life when given the support, encouragement and understanding of their younger peers. A further aim of the event was to help highlight the isolation and loneliness that has been an increasing part of living longer and the ways in which we can, together, combat that. Our overall aim, ideally, would be to also reach those people from rural areas who could not otherwise access such events and local services.
Organisations such as the Sheringham library and our Age Concern North Norfolk’s own Computer Support Group are two such schemes that aim to help lessen that isolation and general anxiety and they were both well attended during the event.
Age Concern North Norfolk Befriending scheme, funded by the National Lottery, also had many requests for a volunteer to pay them, or a loved one, a visit. There was a lot of interest in volunteering as a befriender, where we arrange for a volunteer to visit an elderly person in their own home, whether it be for a chat or just a nice cuppa. We are always on the lookout for New Volunteers (Much Needed) across the whole of North Norfolk to help reduce loneliness amongst the elderly and if you are interested in learning more then we would love to hear from you, please just call 01263 823126 for more information.
suport (and sweets) and even a chance for a hand or foot massage, which, not surprisingly, was extremely popular, with Erica, who also kindly signposted the session onto a local bereavement support group at the Salvation Army in Sheringham. Age Concern North Norfolk would like to say a big thank you to everyone who attended, including the local organisations who came with their information stands as well as all the wonderful volunteers who helped make the teas and cakes and sold raffle tickets on the day. Over £100 was raised in various guises throughout for good causes.
If you would like to find out more about any of the above, including how to become a befriender please call Age Concern North Norfolk on 01263 823126
As well as this there was gentle exercise with Mary Russell, of the Older People’s Forum, a local illustrator Eyizera Phoenix offering

Multi-Faceted Popular Performer Returns to Sheringham
‘An Evening with Richard Digance’ sees the multi-talented artist make a return visit to the intimate setting of Sheringham Little Theatre next month.
Digance is a rare performer in that he is respected by comedians for his original material, and by musicians for being an accomplished performer/guitarist. His loyal following confirms his wide appeal, from the younger generation attracted by both his guitar playing and the fact he has inspired many modern-day performers, to the super-loyal who have followed him since the time he had his own ITV series and even further when he started out in folk clubs.
His evergreen career has been acknowledged through numerous awards within both the music and entertainment industries, from a BAFTA Nomination as a TV entertainer to a Gold Award from the British Academy of Composers and Songwriters. He has supported Steve Martin in the USA and Robin Williams at The London Palladium and is included in The Virgin Anthology of Songwriters for his important contribution to British comedy song writing. When presented with the Gold Award from the British Academy of Composers and Songwriters, he was described as someone who for half a century has travelled the world with just a guitar and an immense collection of stories gathered through his own experiences.
He has survived all trends with his one-
man show, his summer festival appearances in the UK, the United States, Canada and Dubai, his cruise work and television appearances. He is both an accomplished musician, rated by many as one of Britain's greatest acoustic guitarists, inspired by his good friend Ralph McTell, and an entertainer who many younger comedians, including Ross Noble, claim as one of their major influences. On his own ITV Saturday-night show Richard has played guitar with Queen's Brian May, The Moody Blues, Status Quo, Chris de Burgh, Juan Martin, Marc Cohn and Elkie Brooks.
Having been rather impressed by them at this year’s ‘Folk on the Pier’ festival in Cromer, Richard has invited Suffolk’s very own up and coming song writing duo, the Broadside Boys, to open the show for him at the Sheringham theatre.
Richard Digance with Special Guests the Broadside Boys is performing at Sheringham Little Theatre on Saturday 14 November - doors 7pm– Show 7.30pm, tickets £14 from Box Office 01263 822347.

New life for the Perrott brothers
Back in 2003 at just 19 years old, Matthew founded his business ‘Matthew Perrott Carpet Cleaning.’ The business quickly grew based on local accountability, exceptional service and great results. Matthew was able to provide employment as the business built up and in 2006 Thomas came on board. He became experienced in all roles of the business and was a great asset. After Matthew scaled down the business to make room for his new family in 2009, Thomas went to work in the local Sheringham branch Post Office until the opportunity arose for him to become a full partner in the business. In 2012 ‘The Perrott Brothers’ was formed. Since then the business has seen significant growth with the addition of two new vans and new members of staff (Luke, Jamie, Vicky and Chloe). Alongside this, the Perrott brothers introduced a new form of carpet cleaning which provides even greater cleaning results and faster drying times.
Bidding a fond farewell! Matthew has held a strong Christian faith for many years and recently an opportunity to attend a course has opened up. He has taken this opportunity to spend the next year in full time study. Therefore, Matthew has decided to step down as a director of 'The Perrott Brothers Ltd'. Thomas will now be taking the lead of what has become a thriving local business.
"I would like to thank all of my customers and the local community for your support over the last 12 years. It has been a real pleasure serving and getting to know so many of you. I am very proud of the business and all it has achieved so far. I look forward to seeing it grow under Tom's leadership. The last twelve months have probably been my most challenging which has motivated me to move in a different direction, I now look forward to a new phase, where I will be exploring my deeply held beliefs." (Matthew, October 2015)
The company is putting together a leaving book for Matthew and we are welcoming our customers to write down any happy memories and/or experiences you have shared with Matthew over the years. Please feel free to either send these into Unit 29, Weybourne Road Industrial Estate, Weybourne Road, Sheringham, NR26 8AF, or by email to enquiries@newlifecleaningservices.co.uk
Thomas is now directing the company with the help of his lovely wife Vicky. With the recent changes 'The Perrott Brothers Ltd' is having a change of name to New Life Cleaning Ltd, the same services as before but with two new additions. 16

New Life Cleaning Ltd Two New Services
“Times of change could be intimidating, but I have gained a great deal of knowledge and experience working alongside Matthew over the years and know that if properly managed, they become the wind in the sail for the next adventure. I look forward to the challenge of driving the business forward. We have a new name for the business ‘New Life Cleaning Ltd’ and also two new services that we will be providing; a general house cleaning service and recommending and working alongside Hannah Ghoorahoo who provides an exceptional curtain making service. We will of course continue to bring you a professional, reliable and friendly service.” (Thomas, October 2015)

Shantymen 25th Anniversary Gig
During 2015 the Shantymen have been celebrating their 25th anniversary, having started in 1990. This year, as well as the other forty odd gigs in their programme they also planned to do three very special gigs, two in Sheringham and the last one at the Cromer Pier Pavilion Theatre on 6 November.
Musical Director Brian Farrow said This will be our final celebratory gig of 2015 and we are really looking forward to it. To make it really special we have asked Keith Skipper if he will join us for the show. We have always admired Keith’s work and he will bring his own unique taste of Norfolk to this show, which we have called ‘The Silver Darlings’.
They are still planning the show details but Secretary Dick Grieve added “We propose to tell the story of the road we have travelled over the last 25 years and include a few well-placed anecdotes from our resident comedians and I know Keith will add his own splendid blend of humour”
The Shantymen are keen to demonstrate their thanks to the people of Norfolk who have supported them over the last 25 years and have come up with a novel way to show that.
Chairman Bob Hawkins said ‘We have decided to give all of the profits from the Pier show to four local charities, one of which is the RNLI with whom the Shantymen have always been closely linked. The other three, which must be registered Norfolk charities, will be picked at random on the night of the concert from those who have expressed a written interest. In order to be in with a chance, we are asking everyone to complete the form on our web site and send it to our secretary. He continued ‘This is your chance to be one of the four charity beneficiaries from the Silver Darlings Concert on Friday 6 November at The Pavilion Theatre, Cromer Pier’.
Carpets, Flooring and Blinds
They also plan to make another CD late this year or early next, which will feature their favourite and most popular songs. Booking Secretary Chris Dolby said “The Shantymen are going to make a list of their twenty four favourite songs and will then choose the most popular ones for the CD. However we thought the public might wish to have an input into what’s on the new CD so we are inviting them to let us know their favourite songs which we have recorded.”
You will find a list of all of the songs they have recorded in the discography section of their web site www.shantymen.com and the Shantymen have said that if you have any favourites please let them know.
In summing up, Musical Director Brian Farrow said ‘This has been a wonderful year for us and this will be a very special show. But I would like to add some very specific thanks to all of the guys, some still with us, many who have left, but to all who travelled this road with us. We could not have done it without them.

Several of our older cats have recently been re-homed with people who have taken into consideration their own ages and the age of the cats in question. Mange Tout, is now happily settled and is enjoying having extra space, which provides him with more opportunities to exercise to help him lose weight. He has also been registered with his new vet, his medical history has been transferred to them and he will be going to see one of the nurses there for regular weight checks, which are free. Pickles, whose e-photo we By Adam J Faulconbridge BA featured last time, has also left for her new home, Expires: 31/10/2015 together with her sister, Penelope.

We often receive
requests for help with feral colonies and although we are happy to loan out our traps and pay for the cats to be neutered, due to other pressures on our time, we cannot normally help with the actual trapping. When dealing with colonies, it is essential the person who has the problem co-operates with us and that all the cats are caught and neutered. If not, the problem will continue and time and money will have been wasted. With the help of a neighbour, we are at present dealing with one such colony, which has been an ongoing problem for several years. We have in the past had several cats there neutered and taken in quite a few kittens. At present we feel optimistic that, this time, all the adult cats will be caught (the neighbour had not realised the extent of the problem) and at the time of writing we have taken in 16 kittens from the site. Although some of them were quite young and friendly on arrival, others have needed socialising. Four of the friendliest ones have been moved to another fosterer and remarkable progress has been made with the others, some of which are also now available for adoption. We are confident that they will soon all be ready to leave us. Life would have been so much easier if the owner of the site had been more co-operative.
If you are interested in receiving help to neuter your cat/kitten please ring 07880 256948 (to see if you are eligible for a voucher). This number is for vouchers only and will not be able to help with any other enquiries. The number also applies for those wishing to take advantage of our special neutering campaign.
If you are looking for a cat or kitten (or have any other queries) please give Stephanie a call on 01692 535858. Alternatively, you can visit www.northwalsham.cats.org.uk for a description and photographs of the cats before giving us a call on the above number to find out where any particular cat is being fostered.
Norfolk artist donates one of his paintings to the East Anglian Children Hospice Love Art appeal
Peter Herring of East Anglian Children's Hospice (EACH) recently visited North Walsham artist Jamie Cooper to pick up a painting for the charities Love Art appeal.
The appeal is being run as a competition by EACH to promote and raise funds for the Nook, which is a support complex planned to be built in five acres of idyllic woodland near Framlingham Pigot, just south of Norwich.
As well as the competition, EACH are asking local artists to donate artwork to the appeal. It was this call-to-action to which Jamie responded. The competition runs until 1 November and artists can find further information on the website at www.each.org.uk/the-nook/events/details/loveart-competition.
Jamie Cooper opened his gallery/studio at Alby Craft Centre earlier this month. He said 'When I saw the appeal was running I thought that I had a painting I could spare. I have previously taken part in three dragon boat races to raise money for EACH and organised and submitted a team when I used to work at EAGIT Ltd. (East Anglian Group Industrial Training). It's a charity that seems to get things done and I am pleased to be able to helpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. 20

Print Show with H.J. Jackson Showcase, Book Signing, and Demonstration Saturday 24 to Saturday 31 October at Gallery Plus, Wells-next-the-Sea
H.J. Jackson – highly collected and hugely popular Norfolk print artist - celebrates the release of his new book Afloat and Ashore with a showcase exhibition at Gallery Plus in Wells-next-the-Sea. When H.J. Jackson produced his first handprinted linocut in his last year at school, he had no way of knowing that over 60 years later he would still be printmaking. This small single-colour print of a galleon in full sail was instrumental in helping H.J. Jackson – John to his friends – to obtain a place at the Norwich School of Art the following year. It was also directly responsible for him pursuing linocutting as a craft as part of the National Diploma in Graphic Design. It was while at the School of Art that John became interested in coastal themes, stimulated by visits to Sheringham, Cromer and to the fishwharf at Great Yarmouth during the annual visits by the Scottish Fishing Fleet. By the end of the 1950s, however, his interest was taken up with the closure of the local Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway, where his father, grandfather, and other family members had all worked and the clearance of large areas of Victorian Norwich.
press. After experimenting, he finally settled on a ‘tobacco tin’ as the ideal burnishing tool – a method he still employs today. After working for over 30 years in marketing and publicity, printmaking during evenings and weekends, John was able to pursue linocutting ‘full time’ in 1995.
Now a Senior Fellow of the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers and a Member of the Society of Wood Engravers, H.J. Jackson has perfected his craft. Working from photographic reference, John produces a drawing to the size of the proposed print. He then plans the number of lino blocks needed, some printing more than one colour. The drawing is photocopied onto tracing paper, reversed and transferred using carbon onto the lino. With drawing ink, he identifies the areas to be retained before cutting using only two tools: a V tool and a small gauge. The different blocks are printed using oil based inks and pin-hole registration. The printing is carried out entirely by hand burnishing using the tobacco tin.
The declining fishing industry features strongly in John’s work, and he likes his boats to look as if they have been to sea. The multiple layers of ink result in a ‘treacly’ appearance, which helps to gives them the look of working vessels.
On leaving Art School, John lost the use of the print-room equipment and although he could purchase tools, lino and ink, he realised he would have to dispense with the services of a printing
To mark the release of his new book ‘Afloat and Ashore’, H.J. Jackson will be exhibiting a showcase of his recent linocuts, including his much-loved images of Norfolk boats, at Gallery Plus, Wells-next-the-Sea.
HJ Jackson’s new book ‘Afloat & Ashore’
The exhibition, which will also include work by other Gallery Plus print artists, opens with an all-day preview on Saturday 24 October – all welcome to join us for a glass of Prosecco and continues daily until Saturday 31 October. Open Monday-Saturday 10am-5pm, plus Sunday 25 October 11am-4pm.
John will be in attendance at the preview to sign copies of his book and will be available to chat to about his work and history in the industry. He will also be demonstrating his linocutting techniques during two sessions - morning and afternoon - on the preview day.

Council completes hand over of local asset to North Norfolk Railway
North Norfolk District Council (NNDC) is pleased to announce that Sheringham Tourist Information Centre (TIC) has been handed over to North Norfolk Railway (NNR).
The handover paves the way for a newly redeveloped TIC and toilet facilities and improved opening hours and has offered NNR the opportunity to shape how local services are run.
NNR submitted a Localism Act Expression of Interest to the Council to provide and manage the Sheringham Tourist Information Centre and the public toilets at Station Approach, Sheringham.
The transfer was dependent on a successful Coastal Communities Grant bid by the NNR for £450,000 for a wider development of the

site at Sheringham, which was awarded in January 2015.
Following the handover, NNR intends to demolish the toilets at Station Approach together with the TIC and then rebuild a new shop, office, TIC and toilet facility. NNR, following the signing of a service level agreement, will run the TIC and the toilets and has committed to re-opening the facilities in April 2016.
It is expected that the new TIC will be run by railway staff and will open throughout the year.
Temporary toilets have been installed on Station Approach car park and will be available for the duration of the project (subject to opening hours).

Rachael’s Walk for Friends
About With Friends’ member Rachael Phillips did a 10 mile walk around Cromer and the Runtons to raise almost £200 for the charity she attends four days each week. The sponsored walk was arranged almost entirely by Rachael and was not her first, as she has done the same thing for other charities in the past.
Rachael joined the About With Friends’ Workskills team last year and was working one day a week in the Community Café in Tucker Street, Cromer. However, she has been doing so well that recently she was able to increase her days to four. Rachael now works three days in the café and one in the Production unit on Middlebrook Way.
On her day off Rachael organised this sponsored walk which was two laps of a course that followed the coastal path out of Cromer into East Runton then looped out round Incleboro Fields to West Runton before turning back to Cromer. Rachael was seen off from the charity’s Holt Road headquarters by the Youth Advisory Board who were meeting there, and met about 4 hours later by the About With Friends’ adult social group who were in the café prior to visiting the cinema.
Development Manager Steve Smith walked with her and said “Rachael was ready for another lap but I needed a cuppa. It’s marvellous that Rachael has done this walk but also great that she took on so much of the work involved and got all her own sponsorship. We are all very proud of her”.
The money will be used to buy special equipment for the charity.
