Covering Cromer, Mundesley, the Runtons and surrounding villages in association with the North Walsham Times and Sheringham Independent

Proposals from the Norfolk County Council Parking Committee chairman Mick Castle were halted last month The NNDC, Broadland DC, and Breckland DC are not voting members of the Norfolk Parking Partnership (NPP) and were about to be voted in, prior to discussing the pay and display issue, when NNDC Ccllr John Rest said that the NNDC would not be signing up to the proposals, reports Eric Hayton, proprietor, Rose Villa Publications.

The NPP Norfolk Parking Partnership was due to discuss proposals that seriously affect Cromer, Sheringham and Hunstanton. All are small seaside towns that are nothing like the two towns that do have parking meters who and are also the voting members of the NNP - Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn. Thoee - and those two towns are not covering the cost of enforcement, hence the proposal to make our towns pay.

For Cromer and Sheringham it is even worse as the NNDC has proposed to raise charges at their Pay & Display car parks. Even more crazy is that it is only a year ago that the introduction of meters was wholly rejected by residents of both towns.

to P arki ng Met er s in North No rf olk

Cont. from front cover... and they predict a deficit on parking enforcement income. However, this knee-jerk proposal to raise revenue just from these three towns needs to have more discussion to say the least.

What we are lacking here is the evidence that the introduction of meters would actually have the desired result and evidence that the introduction of meters would not damage the economies of the towns.

Perhaps Ccllr Mick Castle would like to publish the 'months of hard work' that he has said is 'in jeopardy' which presumably contains this crucial evidence, so that all can see. That way, residents can judge the evidence for themselves.

For your information, the Freedom of Information Act is a useful tool that everyone (not just councillors) can use to request copies of eg extract relevant reports, statistics, documents and evidence that may have been collected or used by local councils and their officersials.

It is not difficult to make an FOI request: · Put the request in writing – letter or email · Include your name · Include an address for correspondence – an e-mail address may be okay, unless the information requested can't be sent electronically, in which case you will need to give a postal address · Clearly describe what information is being requested but avoid very broad requests in case the work involved in locating the information is excessive.

You can make a request to Norfolk County Council by emailing: information.management@norfolk.gov.uk, or by post to: Norfolk County Council, Information Management Service, B31, Martineau Lane, Norwich, NR1 2DH You can use it - not difficult - select the relevant official or councillor and email your question. www.norfolk.gov.uk is a good place to start.

Questions that need answering: Before looking at parking meters - or any increased charges - what cost reduction measures and efficiencies have been considered by the NPP? What is the evidence justifying the NPP proposals?

Cromer Chamber of Trade and Commerce

During 2015 Cromer Chamber of Trade and the shops/businesses ran a campaign ‘SAY NO TO PARKING METERS’, we had petitions in shops and on line, at the same time we conducted a survey of those using the shops and businesses in the town centre to find out where they parked , why, how they accessed the town centre and how potential changes to side streets and meters would effect their decision to use the town. This also questioned how they used the town during the different seasons. It had been agreed at a meeting at NNDC that this information would be fed into the County Council officers work on the meter issue, they agreed that any data we collected would be used, at no time have they asked us for any of our data.

If they had they would have a far greater understanding of the movement of traffic the essential nature of the quick turn around of the 30 minutes spaces and how the side streets are used from season to season.

Therefore, the call from Councillor Hannah of Sheringham, informing us the parking enforcement partnership were about to vote on a fully packaged budget to impose parking meters on the streets of Cromer and Sheringham came as a complete surprise. I have bags of data, Cromer and Sheringham have thousands of signatures and lots of useful information they have not just ignored but completely forgotten they agreed to take it into account before doing any more in our towns!

I don’t call that successful consultation! To impose meters on towns simply to increase revenue, as the chair has already publically stated is the only reason for these plans, is not reason enough to disrupt the lives of many, threaten the businesses in the towns, detract from the visitor experience and more importantly displace their residents. This is an attack on residents of seaside towns!

Those using the streets because they have nowhere else to park as the live in the centres, what impact study has been done on that? Where will they go? Does the town have the capacity to cope with the displacement? How will this impact on the streets not effected? Where will the customers of the B & B’s park if not on the Runton Road? If the short stay spaces in the towns are constantly used for 30 minutes during the day, and they fill up for 2 hours at a time, where will the 3 shoppers park that would have used

4

What other solutions were considered?

What analysis/research has been done to quantify the effect onfind what the potential drop-off oin tourism, trade and business of these proposals? might be if meters entitled tourists to park for up to four hours in town centre bays, which would effectively 'bed-block' the in and out of those bays with limited parking permitted.

King's Lynn and Great Yarmouth are totally different size of town to our small seaside towns - what is the basis for reasoning that similar measures would work in the same way?

It is rumoured that these proposals are only being put forward because the NCC has acquired some EU money to fund the capital cost - is this true?

What other evidence has been used to put forward these proposals?

Councillor for Sheringham South

Dear Margaret, In May last year, some drunk youths in Cardigan, Wales, broke into the town’s parking meters, damaging them. The meters weren’t repaired quickly and, as free parking continued, the shops found their high street revenues increased by an average of about 30% to as much as 50% (Mark Hay; 2015). Those findings were confirmed in research on two separate Starbucks outlets, where it was found meter fees reduced customer traffic by almost 30%. (Economics of Transportation; 2014).

Professor Donald Shoup, the parking economist and author of 'The High Cost of Free Parking', argued that free parking was really a subsidy for car owners, increasing traffic congestion and emissions, and having hidden costs. But such arguments are not apt for small towns like Sheringham, Cromer, or Cardigan. These are towns in rural communities where cars are virtually essential, and where much or most business comes from tourists who cannot use cheap, regular public transport.

Now Norfolk County Council wants parking meters in Sheringham and Cromer to pay for parking enforcement across the whole county, but without apparently considering the serious economic arguments against that proposal, nor fully exploring other options, including cost reduction.

I believe that parking meters create stress and deter visitors and customers.

I think that we should work together across all the Norfolk districts to find an economically sensible and fair means of funding parking enforcement.

We should not allow decision-makers to jump on the apparently easy solution labelled ‘Sheringham and Cromer’, regardless of the economic cost and detriment to those towns.

Yours faithfully, Judy Oliver, Driftway Farm, Felbrigg, NR11 8PL

it to grab a few things, go to the bank, collect a prescription etc etc? Will they drive around looking for a vacant spot clogging up the town centres?

Where else can they park? Will they come at all? One lost shopper is one too many!

What impact and displacement studies have been done? Where are the studies saying how long cars park for on Runton Road in Cromer? How did they make the decision that a 4 hour length of stay on the seafront is right length of time?

Has the research been done? It should have been and be very comprehensive. Why, because this about the health of our towns, our communities, the districts residents and improving the tourist offer!

This is not about any of those things THIS is about raising money for countywide parking enforcement. In effect we are being milked as cash cows, their own figures show North Norfolk is cheaper to enforce than a ticket costs and far less than the towns that have the meters!

Our petitions and surveys of last year had a majority result of NO TO ON STREET PARKING METERS and we still say that.

As the chair of the Parking Initiative used this phrase ‘the good people of Cromer and Sheringham ‘in his rather condescending way, I will use in my very positive way -‘The good people of Cromer and Sheringham work hard to provide great vibrant towns, they support them, they work in them and the run businesses in them, they are strong and good communities and together we say NO NO NO!

There has to be a more effective way of monitoring parking, than reducing the availability of parking for residents to use the vital facilities in a quick and effective way or to stop a visitor to a B & B or self catering parking their cars for the length of their stay close to the accommodation, or visiting the beach for more than 4 hours.

Tracey Khalil, Chair, Cromer Chamber of Trade

Cromer Times 489 March 12th 2016

Sheringham Trade and Commerce

NCC's second attempt to introduce Parking Meters to Cromer, Sheringham and Hunstanton, which had been put to public consultation in April 2015 and of the 4290 letters sent out to the Sheringham public 1233 were returned without anybody supporting parking meters in the town.

You may have heard by now of NCC's proposal to introduce Pay and Display meters in Sheringham Cromer and Hunstanton.

Chairman Jeremy Stubbs and myself only heard of this on Thursday 11th February when Brian Hannah, who is on the Norfolk Parking Partnership, received notice of a meeting to be held at County Hall on Thursday 18th February to agree that in Sheringham meters would be introduced in Station Road /High Street and Church Street and on the Esplanade.

The 45 minute free parking would be retained initially, with a charge of £2 for a one and a half hour stay after that. The Esplanade would incur a charge of first 45 minutes free then £2.50 for 1-2 hours /£3 for 2-3 hours and £4 for 3-4 hours max stay 4 hours.

However a ticket would have to be obtained from the meters for the 45 minute free parking in all areas and the meters would be placed at six car intervals

The reason given for introducing the meters is that there is a forecast deficit of £92,000 to pay

Sheringham Resident

for enforcement officers and Yarmouth and King's Lynn [who have meters] no longer wish to make up the shortfall from their surplus receipts from their meters.

A meeting was held on 15th February at the town hall with the mayor/Andreas Yiasimi representing Cromer /Jeremy and myself /Brian Hannah and Dave Stephens [Highways Network manager] and Helen Martin [Project Engineer] from NCC.

They were asked to provide a breakdown of individual towns in North Norfolk to show income and expenditure to run such a scheme along with the capital cost but could not.

We pointed out that by allowing additional parking in the town on a meter this would restrict usage by local people in the parking bays particularly the more mature resident and the hassle involved with obtaining a ticket every time you wanted to visit a business would be prohibitive.

The charge on the Esplanade would restrict use of the beach and beach huts and would put people off from visiting Sheringham and Cromer.

In addition the siting of any meters would severely restrict access on our very narrow pavements.

We also pointed out that NNDC had just come out with a proposal to form a North Norfolk

Dear Margaret, I am really concerned about the effect that Parking Meters will have on the High Street and Station Road Shops in Sheringham and I am totally opposed to this idea. I realise that the County Council have to meet their budgets - as we all do - but this is so short sighted. The District Council will lose Business Rates from closing shops, which I realise is not the problem of the County Council but District MUST do something to stop this ludicrous scheme. If the revenue raised from these proposed meters will pay the wages of the Traffic Wardens then why have Traffic Wardens in the first place!

NO

to P arki ng Met er s in North No rf olk

Business partnership to aid economic development in the 7 towns as they realised that with increased business rates and minimum wage plus increased car parking charges and the continued competition from on line business that times were difficult and the last thing we needed was another fixed cost to deter our customers.

We finished by saying that one body should control traffic management in towns as happens in Norwich where surpluses from car parks can offset on street parking enforcement and the Town Council could possibly take on this role.

Dave Stephens said they had asked NNDC for help with funding their shortfall but this had been declined.

We would urge all of you to write to the EDP and our MP with your views as NCC are determined to pass this and this will be the first step to abolition of free parking.

Andy Bullen, Secretary, Sheringham Trade and Commerce

STOP PRESS

There was a meeting with County highways, town councils and chambers of trade on Thursday afternoon 3rd March at Sheringham Town Council office. There was universal opposition to the NCC plans, including from NNDC. I said was happy to work with NCC, towns etc to find a system of enforcement that works and is fair etc but we would oppose current proposal which is not evidence or research-based and in my view is therefore unreasonable / irrational and susceptible to judicial review.

We now have to work to P arki ng Met er s together to find another in North No rf olk solution but not a meter solution.

Al Pacino described Julie Christie as ‘the most poetic of all actresses’ and following her surprise appearance alongside friend and fellow thespian Sir John Hurt last year, she’s back again in 2016. Fittingly she’ll be reading poems from the new book ‘Poems That Make Grown Women Cry compiled by father and son team Anthony and Ben Holden. In the book 100 prominent women including Yoko Ono, Dame Judi Dench, Miranda Hart and Norfolk girl Olivia Coleman reveal the poems that move them to tears.

Music includes a headline show from Dire Straits co-founder John Illsey and his band playing many of the songs that helped sell over 120 million albums (and counting) worldwide.

The 2016 Holt Festival runs from 23 – 31 July. Tickets for the early shows go on general sale on 7 March following 2 weeks of priority booking for Friends, Ambassadors and Sponsors.

Mackerel with Lime and Coriander

Exciting times here at the Grove as our Spring menu is in place. The best Icarus Hines’ meat and crab and lobster from the legendary John Davies feature highly of course. It’s great to have such wonderful artisan suppliers right on the doorstep and we are privileged to be working with them all.

Our new Orangery is due to be finished by Easter (though at the time of writing it looks a little way off!) which will increase our afternoon tea capacity and also provide a small bar leading into the gardens. Plan your Pimms evenings now!

We look forward to seeing you at the Grove.

Mackerel with Lime and Coriander Serves: 2

Ingredients • 2 whole mackerels • 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped • Grated zest and juice of 1 lime • 1 tbsp olive oil • 20g fresh coriander, finely chopped • 1 garlic clove, crushed

Method 1. Make 4 diagonal slashes across the mackerel on each side, cutting down to the bone. Place in a shallow dish.

2. Mix the chilli, lime zest and juice, olive oil, coriander, garlic and a little sea salt.

Place one-third of the mixture into the cavity of each fish and rub the remainder over the skin. Cover, place in the fridge and marinate for 30 minutes-1 hour.

3. When ready to cook, preheat the grill to high. Place the mackerel on a grill rack, drizzling over any remaining lime juice from the rub mixture, and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until the skin is crispy and the flesh just-cooked.

WHY CHOOSE WHY CHOOSE SILVER SILVER & WARD WARD SOLICITORS? SOLICITORS?

4. Serve the mackerel with a fresh tomato salad and wholemeal bread.

“It’s a common misconception that a larger firm is better.”

I am Clare Mayell and I run Silver and Ward Solicitors in Sheringham. I am an extremely competent and experienced solicitor, qualified Family Mediator and Collaborative solicitor.

As I have worked for 2 larger local firms I know what clients want and expect. My charges are significantly less than other solicitors in North Norfolk or Norwich and I provide 22 years of expertise and exceptional service.

The common misconception is that a larger local firm or city firm is better but this is incorrect. A client just pays more.

When a client rings or walks through the door they invariably get to speak to me as this personal and direct approach is important to my clients and I. I ensure complete confidentiality is an absolute priority. I am one of the few solicitors that offffers a free first appointment so that clients can come in and obtain some initial advice and discuss costs and then make an informed decision.

I advise new clients to “shop around” as I know that my charges are significantly less than other solicitors but I can offer the same expertise, if not better. I have and can act for clients across Norrffolk and the Country as we now have the use of Skype, emails etc. so it enables me to act for clients further afield. The reason that clients, near and far, instruct Silver and Ward is because of my expertise, exceptional service and competitive costs.

“I would say to any potential client to come and meet me face to face for a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT, as you have nothing to lose but all to gain.

Home visits can be arranged or appointments outside of office hours including Saturdays.

Councillors awarded 23% pay rise in North Norfolk

01263 513246

High Street, Cromer

The North Norfolk Labour Party has criticised a move by the Conservative administration at North Norfolk District Council to award councillors a 23% pay rise, at the same time closing facilities and increasing charges like car parking fees.

The increase will see 48 councillors' allowances rise to £5,000 with the Leader of the Council's pay amounting to double that. All councillors will maintain a £200 broadband allowance, and their dinner budgets will increase too.

In the same budget councillors voted to increase car parking charges by 30p per hour in tourist towns, beach hut fees will rise by approximately 133pc, and some local facilities including toilets have been earmarked for closure.

The local Labour Party's online petition at www.stopthepayrise.co.uk was signed by hundreds of residents in just 48 hours, and called on the council to consult with local people to ensure the budget was fairer. It argued the deal was a bad one for North Norfolk residents as well as tourism and businesses. They noted a discount on second homes' council tax still remains, and council staff pay rises remains capped at 1%.

Stephen Burke, newly-elected chair of North Norfolk Labour Party, said "Residents in North Norfolk will be shocked to hear that their district councillors have awarded themselves a 23% pay rise at the same time as cutting services and hiking parking charges and other stealth taxes.

Clearly it's one rule for councillors and another for the rest of us - it is incredibly out of touch.

At the local elections just last May no councillor said they would award themselves a 23% pay increase or impose more cuts and charges.

Councillors have ignored the strength of feeling against the 23% pay rise.

Despite building up big reserves, they are going ahead with higher charges for residents. The budget is a bad deal for North Norfolk and we will continue to hold councillors to account, checking attendances, and ensuring they are working for their new increased wage."

artwork from Daniel’s website www.danielpaulart.com

Daniel works in a mixture of different mediums and techniques. Some of his works involve using texture and found objects that find his way to his garden studio. ‘My style is deliberately naive at times, but I paint in a way that comes naturally to me reflecting the mood I am in or the world around me as I experience it. Using found objects in some of my paintings gives them another dimension and story to be told’ explains the artist. Twenty five year old Daniel was recently delighted when five of his original paintings sold at his exhibitions being held at the Coconut Loft Gallery in Lowestoft, his home town. Due to this success, Daniel wants to share his art with a wider audience for everyone to enjoy and thus he is coming to Cromer to exhibit.

CROMER MUSIC EVENINGS – REVIEW

Young musicians’ concert held at Templewood, Northrepps

Again Ro Curtis brought together six musicians of exceptional talent, enabling them to perform in possibly a smaller venue than they have been used to, which can be quite daunting when the audience front row is just an arm's length away from the performer!

Kelly Clarke MOTOR SERVICES LIMITED

01692 405495

Your One-Stop Garage

A full house enjoyed the choice of programme and the selection of each artist who all excelled in performance.

Included in the line-up were Kai Miller, playing cello and Holly Farnell playing alto saxophone, both confirming we have an abundance of talent in our midst.

This concert proved to be an astute choice to open the 2016 series of the Cromer Music Evenings concerts in which each performer gave of their best, surely highlighting the quality of their teaching, the support of parents, culminating in the appreciation they bring to many listeners.

Artists were Holly Farnell (alto sax), Sebastian Johnson (bass – vocal), Dylan Latham (violin), Kai Miller (cello), Helen Herbert (recorder) and Murray Chapman (piano) played music by Ravel, Bach, Vaughan-Williams, John Ireland, John Butterworth, Max Bruch, Brahms, Bela Bartók, Dario Castillo, Giuseppe Sammartini, Hans-Martin Linde and Stephen Montague.

The accompanists were David Neil Jones, Lawrence Tao, Beverley Baker and Duncan Barlow who, by their skill, enhanced each performance. Here, it must be said that the piece by Stephen Montague Paramell Va not only tested the ability of Murray Chapman, his page turner, and the front two rows of the audience, but mainly the stability of Templewood’s Yamaha Grand! Amazing!

Cromer Scheme Close to Completion

Woodlands Indoor Bowls Club

The £8 million pound Cromer Coast Protection Scheme which restarted in September last year is close to completion, with the final stage being the resurfacing of Cromer’s iconic Promenade.

Letters outlining the final stages of the work have been given to traders and retailers along the Promenade from Melbourne Slope to the Gangway to explain what will be happening between now and the end of March.

Holt Road, Upper Sheringham NR26 8TU

01263 825700

Due to the nature of the work the area between Melbourne Slope and the Gangway will be cordoned off from the public as the surface of the promenade has to be cut away exposing manhole covers, gullies and other ironwork before being resurfaced later.

Everyone Welcome Special arrangements are being made to open up pedestrian access to for weekend beginners as manyCoaching retailers as possiblegiven over the Easter period.

• during the Easter weekend vehicle access willgame be restricted to dropCome and try the

offs for people with disabilities attending Pier shows and special parking arrangements will be made for residents.

• a pedestrian corridor will give access from the Gangway to the Pier and east end shops over the Easter weekend.

• there will be access to the west end amusement arcade via the steps from the top of Melbourne Slope.

An open day will be held on

Cllr Tom FitzPatrick, Leader of North Norfolk District Council said “The Cromer Coast Protection Scheme is (No vitallyCharge) important.

It will protect Cromer, its residents, its businesses and its visitors for many years to come. “Throughout the period of the work we have been focused on keeping Cromer open for business and we have been meeting with traders and working with our contractor Volker Stevin to see how we can minimise the impact on businesses while ensuring the town can benefit from the work this summer season.”

The bowling green has 6 rinks Lounge and bar area Normal opening hours Summer- Weekdays – 10am – 4pm Winter Everyday – 9am – 9pm

All of the businesses along the Promenade have been consulted throughout the scheme and it is believed that pressing forward on the resurfacing work now would enable the town to benefit from the new surface this summer and be less disruptive and less costly than looking to schedule the work after the 2016 summer season.

THE NORTH NORFOLK GARDENER THE GARDEN POND

A garden pond brings year-round tranquillity to the garden, reflecting light and mirroring the sky and the surroundings. It also presents a chance to grow different plants and will become a haven for wildlife.

However, at this time of the year the garden pond can look very sorry for itself, overgrown and full of the leaves and other rubbish blown around the garden by the high winds we have experienced this winter.

Spring is a good time to overhaul your pond, pulling out the decaying plant matter, setting out new plants and lifting and dividing others.

Your activities might cause the water to cloud for a while but it will settle down as the plants begin to grow.

We can then look forward to the spring flowers. At the waterside, the giant golden buttercups of Caltha palustris appears, and joins the little water buttercup, Ranunculus

aquatilis, whose white flowers float above foliage submerged in the pool itself. Hooded spathes of the pure white bog arum, Calla palustris, and the butter-yellow skunk cabbage, Lysichiton americanum, whose dramatic leaves later reach 3-4 feet, break through the shallow water. In shallow water too, at the end of spring, the lovely blue, pink, purple and white flowers of Iris laevigata appear, and I. Pseudocorus cultivars grow in water about 1 ½ ft. deep.

Plants like the arrowhead, Sagittaria sagittifolia, link spring and summer, the fleshy, spear-shaped foliage rising majestically from the water to be later crowned with small white flower clusters. At the waters-edge, Eriophorum angustifolium, presents its cottonwool tufts in late spring, and the flowering rush, Butomus umbellatus, is topped with rose-pink flower heads in early summer. At lower levels, in the pool itself, the submerged water violet, Hottonia palustris, lifts stems of pale lilac blooms. These make perfect companions for the waxy, white water hawthorn, whose sweet-coloured flowers, appear from late spring to autumn. Water forget-me-not scrambles at the margins.

Very few people have room for all these plants

but this gives an idea of the range of plants available and I have not even mentioned the enormous number of wonderful water lilies.

Many ordinary garden plants such as hostas also look very good planted near water.

It is however important to remember that plants are functional as well as decorative, and help to keep the pool clean. To prevent the growth of algae, for example, about a third of the surface area should be covered with deep-water floating plants which will also provide shade and hiding places for fish and frogs. Other aquatics, known as oxygenators, will also help to keep algae at bay.

CROMER FLOWER CLUB

Adele Kent came to us for our first meeting of 2016 and her title, ‘I’ve got a little list’, was wonderfully demonstrated to describe garden designs and plants etc to create a classical or tropical garden, to name but two.

Her flowers were fabulous especially the ‘Avalanche’ roses which were incorporated in several designs.

Adele was most complimentary of the standard of the competition entries. Val Kirkwood was best in show.

Our next meeting is on Monday 21 March at 7.20pm at Cromer Junior School with Vicki Hease demonstrating ‘Alfresco Summer’. The competition will be ‘Forward to the Future’.

Girls want ‘to give the nurses a treat’

Eight year old Issy and six year old Nelly Wilson who live in Northrepps are raising money for the nurses at The Norfolk & Norwich Hosptial who looked after their daddy when he was poorly last year. ‘Daddy’ will be better known to many readers as Will Wilson.

Runner Up Paul Skillen

Sheringham on Easter Saturday with bric-a-brac books etc ‘so that we can give a donation to the nurses fund so that they can have a treat’.

‘We would like to thank Mary and Robert Kirby from Miss Madelines for letting us use the front outside of their shop for this. Please come and buy something from us’.

Well done girls- perhaps baby brother Herbie will be able to lend a hand with the stall too!

Steam Trains to the Norfolk Broads

They explained ‘last year our Daddy was really poorly and had to spend a long time in hospital. We missed him but he was looked after really well by the doctors and nurses at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital. Our Daddy says the nurses are the best ever and work very long hours’.

The girls are having a stall outside Miss Madeleines in Station Road,

The February meeting was again well attended and the president welcomed three visitors.

Our speaker this month was Angela Reith from Age UK befrienders in Sheringham. Angela is the newly-appointed senior curator of the day centre. She explained that the centre, open Tuesday to Friday, signposts clients to other services and co-ordinates the work of between 75 and 80 volunteers who make around 80 visits per week to older people in the area who need support.

Age UK befrienders are always looking for more volunteers who will receive induction and full training and are carefully matched with clients to ensure that appropriate placements are made.

The centre itself runs a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;keep in touchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; club every two weeks where clients can take part in activities and exercise and receive personal care, as well as being served lunch.

This monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Something Beginning with Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, was won by Freddie Abbs with a photo of her family in Australia. Second prize went to Irene Nutt and third prize to Ann Winter. We will be entertained in March by our own drama group, Cromer Shoestring Players, with their production of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Good Afternoon Cromerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

New members are always welcome on the second Thursday of the month at 2pm in the Community Hall in Garden Street.

Overstrand WI

In February we welcomed Mr Malcolm Hilson to our meeting. His talk took us on a `virtual` trip to Vanuatu.

Vanuatu is made up of 85 islands in the South Pacific and this is where Mr Hilson spent six years as High Commissioner whilst working for the Foreign Office.

We were taken on a sailing trip around a few of the islands within the area he was responsible for and, as well as treating us to some wonderful scenery, he also told us of some of the difficulties that come with the responsibilities of his post and also some of the things he had been able to achieve as the representative of the British Government, one of which was the provision of electricity for two of the islands schools.

Members were reminded to bring money for the trip to Ware Hall next month and about the Celebrating Shakespeare afternoon at Bowthorpe Church Centre on 22 April. The walkers had enjoyed the walk around Sheringham Park in January and had been very lucky with the weather.

We welcome visitors and prospective new members (you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be an Overstrand resident to join us) to our walks and monthly meetings.

Our meetings are on the third Wednesday of the month at 7.30pm in the Parish Hall, Overstrand.

Dear Margaret,

I just thought your readers might be interested to hear that my 17 year old son Kieran recently paid for and made a quality chain link basketball net to replace the one that used to be on the Meadow basketball court (which he also put up a few years ago).

We installed it last month in the cold & the rain and two young local lads were delighted and started using it immediately.

We are from Southend, Essex but are lucky enough to own a holiday home in Cromer, which we let out but we do like to visit whenever possible and to support the local community wherever we can.

Yours sincerely, Paul Baker

Do your eyes give your age away?

Erase signs of ageing, safely and quickly. Latest treatments at the Coltishall Cosmetic Clinic

Dr Sanjay Gheyi MBBS MS FRCS BCAAM Medical director and laser surgeon at the Coltishall Cosmetic Clinic explains â&#x20AC;Ś

Effects of ageing skin gradually creep up. You feel good but the mirror tells a different story!

Women and men believe the body part that most reveals their age is the eye area, followed by hands and facial skin.

They want simple aesthetic solutions that help them look as good as they feel and minimise the early signs of sun damage. One in three want to erase their skinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fine lines and wrinkles.

OK, you have tried botox but it can only do so much. Although it is a wonderful tool in experienced hands, it is not going to address all the changes that occur with ageing.

How can we help you reduce first signs of ageing around the eye area?

There are three main changes that occur with ageing. Loss of volume, loss of skin elasticity causing sagging skin and sun damage that affects the skin quality. Essentially we can address all three elements of ageing resulting in total rejuvenation and natural looking results.

Careful use of botox and fillers or fat injection can restore volume reduce dynamic wrinkles formed by muscle over activity. Another

revolutionary technique has been tear trough rejuvenation with hyaluronic acid fillers such as restylane. New injection methods now allow us to achieve excellent results without any bruising or downtime. Fat injections are also making a comeback and fat is an excellent filler to provide volume even in eyebrows and temporal hollows. It is especially attractive for patients who are considering liposuction.

Suctioned fat can be used to provide a volumetric lift to facial areas or for the whole face.

We can use lasers to create a new skin and reduce and reverse sun damage. This is only possible with a laser treatment. Finally if required we can use surgery to lift the brows or remove excess eyelid skin.

How do you perform eyelid skin tightening or skin removal to address more advanced changes of skin ageing?

Eyelid skin tightening remains a very popular procedure. Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is one of the most popular cosmetic surgical procedures worldwide. Ageing changes in this area are almost universal.

How is laser eyelid surgery different from traditional eyelid surgery?

The traditional blepharoplasty is a more invasive procedure with considerable recovery period and often involves overnight hospital stay. It also often involves removal of muscle Ce leb ra tin g

layer and fat from around the eyeball. More invasive a procedure, longer is the list of potential complications.

Also too much fat removal can lead to a hollowed out artificial or operated upon look.

What are the advantages of our blepharoplasty technique?

With our technique the procedure is performed under pure local anaesthesia. We have also learned that fat removal is to be avoided unless there is obvious prolapse or bulging of the fat pads. This provides a natural look. Use of local anaesthesia allows a quick recovery whilst use of the laser reduces bleeding allowing a much faster recovery and minimal bruising. Although the scar is very fine and placed in a natural eyelid crease, we can also use the laser a few weeks after the procedure to further improve the surgical scar if required.

Solar Power Crushes Cromer Litter Revolutionary smart litter bin piloted in Cromer

A revolutionary smart litter bin powered by solar energy is being trialled by North Norfolk District Council in Cromer.

The ‘smart’ solar powered litter bin crushes rubbish down to stop litter being blown around the town. The trial of the bin started on 10 February and runs through to Easter.

The ‘Clean Cube’ is a compactor litter bin near to No1 Fish and Chip Shop in Cromer. It is larger than a normal litter bin and when the litter reaches a certain height it compacts the waste within by using a hydraulic ram.

Are you caring for a loved one living with dementia?

Do you sometimes feel alone or isolated?

Feel despair and in need of a chat, but don’t know who to turn to?

Why not come along to our Carers’ Café!

It will be a supportive atmosphere, where you will be able to chat to other carers of people living with dementia.

Come along and have a cuppa with good company and, just for a few hours, hopefully your worries can be shared.

The Café will be open on the last Wednesday of each month starting March 30th 2016 at 1.30pm.

For further details please contact Laura Lodge on 01263 517 930.

Cllr Angie Fitch-Tillett, North Norfolk District Council Cabinet Member for the Environment said “We are trialling this new bin to see how successful it could be in reducing the volume of waste so that our bins can be used for longer. I think it’s great that we’re putting smart technology to work to help protect the environment.”

The solar powered Clean Cube can hold up to eight times the amount of litter of a normal

litter bin - and the solar panel uses daylight to charge the internal battery.

The ‘smart’ solar bin also tells the team how full it is and when it was last emptied. It is hoped that the trial, which took place over the half-term break will be a good test of what it can do.

New physiotherapy service is tailored to local needs People in North Norfolk and rural Broadland who require specialist physiotherapy will soon have access to a new clinic-based service working closely with local GP practices.

The new service â&#x20AC;&#x201C; provided by The Integrated Care Clinics Ltd (TICCS) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; will be designed around the needs of patients and offer sessions at doctorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; surgeries and community venues. It has been commissioned by North Norfolk Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to ensure patients receive appropriate treatment in a timely way while making the best use of NHS resources.

From 18 April, patients requiring specialist physiotherapy will be referred by their GP to TICCS, which provides a range of specialist treatment and rehab services. If appropriate, they will then receive a phone call to ensure they are offered self-care advice prior to their first appointment.

Patients will then be offered up to three sessions of physiotherapy, depending on their needs. Sessions will be held at GP practices or at local community venues, including leisure centres and village halls, although the exact locations will be confirmed at a later date.

Upon discharge, patients who require further assistance will be given 12 monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; free access to TICCSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; specialist online portal, which offers videos and advice tailored to peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs. Those who do not have access to the web will receive leaflets providing the same information.

Some patients may also be referred to community exercise schemes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; run by North Norfolk District Council and Broadland District Council â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to further assist their rehabilitation.

In commissioning the new service, North Norfolk CCG followed a robust procurement process that adhered to national NHS rules. Its aim was to ensure patients had access to high quality treatment, tailored to local needs, delivered in an innovative and cost-

effective way.

As part of this, bids from potential providers were assessed by a panel that included a patient representative and an external HR expert, alongside CCG staff and two senior GPs. Plans for the new service were also discussed by the CCGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Community Engagement Panel, whose meetings are open to representatives from a range of local patient and stakeholder groups, and the feedback they provided was integral to the development of the service specifications.

GPs at the CCGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 19 member practices were also asked for their views on what worked best for their patients, and their comments were used to shape the specifications around local needs.

Dr James Gair, a GP in North Walsham and the CCGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clinical lead on community services, said he was confident that the new service would be a good one for patients. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our primary aim in designing the service was to ensure that it was tailored to the needs of people in North Norfolk and rural Broadland, and we believe it will meet those needs,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At a time when the NHS is under huge financial pressure, CCGs are being asked to commission services in an innovative and progressive way to ensure they make the best use of resources. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was a key consideration in the procurement process, and we are delighted to be working with TICCS which already provides specialist MSK physiotherapy services to NHS patients for more than 30 other CCGs across the UK. It has an excellent reputation for the quality of its work.â&#x20AC;?

TICCS was awarded an initial two-year contract to provide musculoskeletal (MSK) physiotherapy services by North Norfolk CCG following a thorough three-month NHS procurement process.

It is due to take over the contract from the current provider â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Norfolk Community Health and Care

NHS Trust (NCH&C) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on Monday, April 18, with the option of a two-year extension.

Staff employed by NCH&C will be offered the chance to transfer to TICCS under TUPE rules.

TICCS was established in 1996 and now delivers more than 600,000 physiotherapy treatment sessions a year at 300 clinics across the UK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; around 200,000 of them to NHS patients.

It has Care Quality Commission accreditation in locations where it undertakes regulated activity and it has a 98% positive patient rating nationally for its services which cover all aspects of MSK physiotherapy, including spinal and peripheral disorders, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health, post-operative treatment, vestibular rehabilitation and specialist triage assessment and treatment services.

Kevin Doyle, Managing Director of TICCS, said â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will aim to work very closely with the CCGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commissioning team and patient focus groups to design a clinical delivery solution which best meets the needs of patients in North Norfolk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are both delighted and excited to bring our extensive knowledge in delivering community-based physiotherapy services to the benefit of the local community.â&#x20AC;?

Dr Crippen’s Ghost

Written by Miranda Marshall – Director at Hayes + Storr

The Common Law rule of forfeiture arises from public policy and prevents a person who has unlawfully killed another from profiting from their death. It is intended to act as a disincentive to criminal activity and to reflect the public conscience.

The Forfeiture Act 1982 gave the Court power to grant relief from this strict rule.

The forfeiture rule is vividly illustrated by the celebrated case of Re Crippen’s Estate (1911) where the Probate Court granted the right to administer the estate of Dr Crippen’s intestate murdered wife to one of her next-of-kin, thereby by-passing Dr Crippen who had been found guilty of his wife’s murder, and sentenced to death. The forfeiture rule is not confined to murder and has been applied to cases of manslaughter and suicide pacts

In the recent case of Henderson v Wilcox, a son Ian, who suffered from lifelong mental health problems, attacked his elderly frail mother brutally on a number of occasions leading, ultimately, to her death. She had cared from him for all his life but had become too old to do so. He was found guilty of manslaughter, rather than murder, as the criminal court accepted that he had not intended to kill her or to cause serious harm.

Ian applied for relief from forfeiture of her estate.

The house in which they had lived did not form part of her estate, as it had been transferred into two ‘family protection trusts’; one for Ian and one for his mother. The mother’s trust had herself, Ian and a nephew as beneficiaries.

Ian’s trust was a mirror image.

Cooke J held that the Trust was not subject to the forfeiture rule. This was because Ian’s interest under the Trust did not come into being as a result of his mother’s death (or as result of the criminal act which lead to his mother’s death). Anything that Ian received under his mother’s trust would be as a result of the Trustees’ decision to benefit him, rather than because of her death.

It was held that no modification to the forfeiture rule would apply to the estate of Ian’s mother. This meant that Ian was not to benefit from it. In making this decision, Cooke J looked at the case in the round and took all factors into account. He found Ian’s culpability high, although lessened by his low I.Q. and other difficulties. Ian had been held fit to plead in the criminal case and did not have diminished responsibility. And so, justice did not require modification of the forfeiture rule.

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

In the last edition Toby, one of the vets at Westover, mentioned the importance of having your pets micro chipped because it helps reunite animals with their owners and also makes it easier to contact the owner if their beloved pet has been taken into the surgery with an injury. We agree entirely with his sentiments and are committed to encouraging people to have this done. All the cats and kittens re-homed by us have either been chipped, prior to leaving for their new home, or will be when receiving their 2nd vaccination.

Because we register all the micro chip details for our cats when they leave for their new homes on-line, I have access to the relevant websites to do this and can check the information held there. Care has to be taken not to breach Data Protection regulations but, if a stray cat is chipped, I can check to find out who the registered owner is and, hopefully, reunite them with their pet.

Our fosterers also have micro chip readers because we do need to check for chips when the cats come into care and, although it is not always possible, they * All makes Servicing * will often go out to check a cat reported to Proton, Perodua and us to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;strayâ&#x20AC;?. A recent call regarding Nissan specialists a stray cat on a Sunday afternoon had a very happy outcome. The owner had reported it Unit 2D Middlebrook Way, missing to the micro Cromer chip company and we

were able to reunite her with her owner.

Sadly, they often get called to check a cat that has been hit by a car and then have to break the news to the owner that the cat has died. At least in these instances the owner Kaspian, one of the kittens from the feral colony knows what has happened and is able to make appropriate arrangements.

We would, however, point out that it is important to make sure the details for your cat are kept up to date on the micro chip registers. We have in the past faced the challenge of tracing an owner who no longer lives at the registered address; there have been instances when this was not possible. Boots, the little cat visiting us, is still at large and is not chipped, but will be once returned to his home.

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.

Twenty five years on - Baker completes record four timer

Thirty two years after winning Cromer Squash Club’s annual handicap tournament for the first time and a full quarter of a century after taking his third title, John Baker has become the first ever player to win the tournament four times.

In a tremendous final at the Norwich Road courts on Friday evening he just did enough to overturn a five point handicap to beat fellow veteran, John Chandler 11-15 15-7 14-15 15-12 17-15 after twice saving “match ball” in the decisive fifth game.

The first game started off much as expected with Baker playing a “percentage” game and driving the ball deep while Chandler was content to feed off the pace of the ball and attempt numerous winning drop shots to the front of the court. Baker gradually pulled the handicap back before drawing level at 7-7 and then leading 10-8 but Chandler then played some audacious winning shots to win five consecutive points before closing out the game 15-11.

Baker was in complete control of the second game, taking it 15-7 but in the third game the players were evenly matched and the scores were 12-12 before Baker drew level. At 13-13 Chandler chose “no set” and although Baker had “game ball” at 14-13 Chandler took the next two points to take the game 15-14 and open up an important 2-1 lead.

In the fourth game a run of six consecutive points opened up a 6-4 lead for Baker and then later in the game another run of six gave him “game ball” at 14-10 and although Chandler pulled two points back Baker took the game 15-12 to draw level. In the final game Chandler played brilliantly and was always ahead, leading 10-8,12-10 and then 14-12 before Baker levelled at 14-14. Chandler, somewhat surprisingly, opted to play out the game to 17 points and although he won the next point in what was one of the best rallies of the match Baker then went on

Mr Robert ‘Bob’ Coleman, trading as Holt Roofing £1016.00 6th February 2014 Church Close, Antingham to take the next three rallies to win the game 17-15 and the match 3-2.

In the semi-finals Baker (-8) had had to battle hard to overturn a fifteen point handicap against the 2015 champion, Richard More (+7) before winning 15-10 15-13 8-15 15-11 while Chandler (-2)had an even tougher match against the hard hitting new club member Chris Hele (+5), eventually overcoming a seven point handicap and more than one scare along the way to win 15-12 7-15 17-16 15-14.

Technical Director, Barry Starling, who only narrowly lost 15-12 in the fifth to Baker in the quarter-finals was one of the large crowd who enjoyed the final and said afterwards: “I genuinely think this was one of the best and most exciting finals we have ever had. The result was in doubt right up until the final rally and although Johnny B played brilliantly John C can be very, very proud of his performance”

The win rounded off a fine season’s squash for Baker. Not only did he win this tournament but he also won the club’s Over 35 tournament for the fourth time in the autumn before going on to be crowned club veterans champion for the second time. On top of this he was also runner-up in the club championship last October and has now set his sights on regaining that title in seven months time in a bid to become the first player to hold all four titles simultaneously
