Aylsham and District Flower Club The Flower Club has been running since 1953 and meets in Aylsham Town Hall normally on the second Wednesday of each month 7pm for 7.30pm.

However, on this special occasion (our first meeting for 18 months) we will be starting at 6pm in order to have a brief AGM before welcoming David Wright from Tunstead as our demonstrator.

David has chosen the theme “Twenty Twenty,“ and it will be very interesting to see how he interprets this with flowers. All arrangements which will be raffled after the demonstration.

The meeting usually finishes at 9.30 pm. It is not necessary to be a flower arranger to enjoy these relaxing evenings just somebody who loves flowers.

During the year two Open Evenings are organised, one in the Spring and the second in November with a Christmas theme. We also have a workshop evening once in a while, and a competition for members each year neither of which are compulsory! Members provide arrangements for sale in Aylsham Market Place the day before Mothering Sunday.

Opportunities occur to visit other clubs in the areas well as invitations to take part in Church Flower Festivals. Twice a year we are asked to provide two arrangements in Norwich Cathedral.

Our Chairman, Crystal Dyball runs workshops for those wishing to develop their flower arranging skills.

For many years Aylsham Flower Club has

enjoyed providing displays in the Floral Marquee at Aylsham Show. Hopefully this will be possible in 2022.

During the Summer the club planned two garden visits. We visited Dunbheagan, a beautiful garden near Dereham in June, and in July will be seeing the garden at Highview House, Roughton.

New members and visitors are always very welcome. The committee would be pleased to have one or two more people to join our committee.

Why not come along and try us out?

There will be no charge at our opening meeting unless you wish to purchase a raffle ticket or two (50p each). Annual subscription and visitor fee to be decided at AGM.

her talk -Alternative Patchwork.

A Note from the editor

Dear Reader Well, now we have dried out a bit perhaps we can get on with Summer. The predicted ‘staycation’ is certainly keeping the town busy and is nice to see our local traders doing well. There are lots of charity events, village fetes and activities happening, so even if you can’t get away there are lots of things to go and do while enjoying the sun and our lovely county.

Whilst enjoying the weather please remember the advice on water safety, the RNLI website: https://rnli.org/safety gives lots of advice on keeping safe, do take time to have a look.

Whatever you are doing, enjoy your August magazine.

Keep safe and well.

Jo – Editor.

Those attending were in for a treat as the speaker, Sue Oakes, had us spellbound as she wove threads of her personal history cleverly into

A former teacher in the early 1960s, first in a tough inner-city school in London, then in a similar setting in Birmingham. She coped admirably with the steep learning curve and took up patchwork as a means of de-stressing and unwinding mentally.

We were able to see the extraordinary fruits of her labours, each one a work of art.

It was patchwork, but not as most would know it. Taking what she saw in her keenly observed travels, we were in awe of her skill-which amongst other wonderful examples-translated a brick wall, over-run with wild nature, into a stunning mural-type extravaganza, complete with an ivy leaf dangling invitingly from the base.

She did admit that some of her extraordinary output had been used as curtains! She even had recognition from the “great and good” as she found an illustration of her pieces in a prestigious quilting magazine.

Quite a force to be reckoned with, who employed a bit of psychology as a means to an end.

gardening tokens as she had confided that her new garden was a “blank canvas”. We all wish her good luck with her “painting”

Hubcaps had been removed from staff cars, but miscreants were given 24 hours to return them (no questions asked) if they were not back, sanctions such as playtime would be used. They were all returned!

Following refreshments, the business part of the meeting was heavily tinged with sadness, as we were bidding a very fond farewell to our president, Caz Lewis.

Our next scheduled meeting is on Wednesday 11th August 2.30pm when a tea party is proposed.

There being no speaker, members are encouraged to bring with them a favourite item of jewellery together with its back story.

New members are well to come and join us.

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

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

I am Clare Mayell and I own Silver and Ward Solicitors in Sheringham. I am an extremely competent and experienced solicitor.

I appreciate that any time of the year can be a difffficult time for many people to resolve legal issues of worry and concern, for example, making a will or Lasting Power of Attorney, and especially during this very uncertain time.

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 Norrffolk or Norrw wich and I provide 24 years of expertise and exceptional service.

I pride myself in being one of the only solicitors who offe fers a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT, so clients can come in and obtain some initial advice and discuss costs and then make an informed decision. At a larger firm you just pay more. I can also offer appointments via Zoom, telephone or Skype and through the website www.silverandward.co.uk..

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 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. Of course we have all necessary Covid measures in place in the office.

“I would say to any potential client with a legal issue or worry 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 at no extra cost.

ONS crime stats publication 22 July 2021 (Year ending March 2021)

The latest crime figures for England and Wales have been published by the Office of National Statistic (ONS) covering the 12-month period ending March 2021.

Crime in Norfolk reduced during this period by around 6% with continued significant reductions in residential and business burglary, theft, criminal damage, robbery and violence offences where injury occurred.

Chief Constable Paul Sanford said: "It's pleasing to see crime levels have reduced during this period. However, this latest round of crime statistics is the first to take into account all national lockdowns during the coronavirus pandemic and it's important we understand this when reviewing the figures.

Ready to make a move?

We understand that moving home can be both a happy and sad experience. That’s why our team are ready to work with you and look after your every need from full market exposure to discreet one-off buyer introductions.

It’s currently the best time to sell in years, so however you want us to move you, we’re here to help.

"Some of the crimes which have the biggest impact and matter most to our communities continue to reduce significantly with burglary, vehicle crime and thefts all down by more than 30%. It isn't surprising to see this trend, given the conditions we've been living under in that 12-month period, with people spending a significant amount of time at home.

"A reduction in crime is always good news of course and overall, in Norfolk we're in a good position, but we know these latest statistics are, in part, driven by the impact of the pandemic. We continue to be concerned about the increase of domestic abuse which accounts for the majority of violence against the person offences, stalking and harassment cases. These crimes are often under-reported so while rises can be concerning, it's equally encouraging to see victims reaching out for help.

Please give us a call to discuss how we can get you moving

"Public order offences, as well as reflective of the pandemic, also continue to be influenced by our investment and efforts in improving our compliance with national crime recording standards, a trend I expect to continue for at least the next 12 months.

"Norfolk remains a very safe place to live. However, with the lifting of coronavirus restrictions, I believe there is a degree of inevitability that certain crime types will increase over the coming months. I would like to reassure communities that we're working harder than ever before to meet their concerns and needs, protecting the people of Norfolk, preventing crime and bringing offenders to justice.” www.rosevillapublications.co.uk

North Walsham & Dilham Canal Trust Announce August Open Weekend

The North Walsham & Dilham Canal Trust have announced that their annual open weekend will this year be held on the 14th and 15th August at Ebridge Mill, on the North Walsham – Happisburgh Road.

The popular annual event, paused due to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, returns this year with a barbecue, a licensed bar and stands and exhibitions from local groups that make use of the canal, including information about the canal trust themselves, a charity in the process of restoring the nine-mile waterway.

The event is free to attend, with displays including work by the Cromer Artspace group, miniature vessels on show from Ebridge Model Boat Club, wooden canoes from Norfolk Heritage Canoes and members of the local wild swimming club in attendance to chat with budding outdoor swimmers. The North Walsham & Dilham Canal Trust will also be running their regular boat tours (£7 per person), which run on other days throughout summer too.

“We’re thrilled to announce the full return of our annual open day,” James Warner Smith of the North Walsham & Dilham Canal Trust commented.

“There’s always a great attendance at the event and it’s a good opportunity for people to see the progress being made restoring the canal, as well as enjoying good food, real ales and the chance to meet other people passionate about the canal. There will be food and drink, toilet facilities and parking at Ebridge Mill Pond and there’s always a great buzz around the place as people gather and enjoy the Open Weekend exhibitions. The entire event is outdoors and well spread out. And this year, too, QR nother codes will allow people to make payments digitally if they prefer.”

u3a - Spreading the Word in North Norfolk

North Norfolk u3a (NNu3a) will be busy spreading the word, that is promoting the University of the Third Age to active, retired folk in North Norfolk.

For NNu3a members this means ‘feet on the ground’ where they can talk to the great British public, especially those retired or about to retire and living in North Norfolk.

One of the best ways to do that is to take a stand – and what better way than to take a stand at Sheringham’s popular town market on Saturday 4th September.

NNu3a members will be on hand at Sheringham Market on the 4th September to chat about their own unique experiences. They’ll discuss how these could involve you when you’ve retired and have time to breath and do those things you never had time for.

They say the best way to stay young is to stay active, whether physical or mental. At NNu3a it doesn’t matter whether you’re interested in country rambles, learning a language, want to know more about music/dance or discover the hidden secrets North Norfolk.

Whatever...

'NNu3a currently have over 50 different groups covering a wide range of topics. It’s learning in a friendly informal way and a great way to make new friends. It’s definitely not like being at school!

Come and discover more at Sheringham Market on Saturday 4th September 2021 Contact: www.northnorfolku3a.org.uk Paul Milner 07834-600665 publicity@northnorfolku3a.org.uk

Help local school Sidestrand Hall win a playground makeover worth £5,000

Pupils from Norfolk-based Sidestrand Hall School have collected and transformed 2,180 plastic bottle tops into stunning art murals, as part of a nationwide recycling campaign to raise awareness about plastic waste and its effect on the environment.

The secondary school has been named among the top ten finalist schools for its competition entry titled Riding the Wave of Hope. Sidestrand Hall School will now enter into an online exhibition alongside nine other finalists, where friends and family can drum up support for their favourite submissions by liking and commenting on entries on the Composite Prime Facebook page.

On 31st August 2021 one winning school will be awarded a playground makeover worth £5,000 and two runners up will be presented with tablets worth £100.

A teacher from Sidestrand Hall School, said: “Inspired by the plight of seals along the local coastline, pupils wanted to highlight to holiday makers and locals the problems of our use of plastics, particularly the 'Ring frisbee' toy used for children and dogs play. “Pupils enjoyed counting the bottle tops and placing them into different patterns and colour combinations to make the wave and seal. The sculpture went

through several reshapes due to learning which materials could be combined together and survive the weather.”

Premiere for modern day farce penned by actor who is times. also an ICU nurse

Ryan Starling, whose family live in North Walsham, will premiere his comedy The Morning After (The Night Before) play at Sheringham Little Theatre in August. The 29-year-old is a regular performer at the venue, starting in its youth group and more recently taking roles, ranging from a “nerd” to a granddad, in its summer drama season.

He has been combining his love of acting, with training and working as a nurse, and after qualifying has been doing 12-hour intensive care unit shifts at St Thomas’ Hospital in London. And after gruelling work sessions, lockdown gave him the time to fulfil the dream of writing a play of his own, in which he will take the lead role.

“I have been in a lot of farces, which are mainly set in a certain era when things were

Farce’s appeal is broad – with a mix of visual and verbal comedy – and it is hard to write, to blend heightened reality without it becoming nonsense and keeping something back so the audience doesn’t guess what is going to happen,” he added.

C

A modern-day farce has been written for a Norfolk theatre by an actor who doubles as an intensive care nurse.

not quite politically correct, and had the idea to write one from the modern day a few years ago while on tour,” explained Ryan.

He plays Gary who wants to get engaged to girlfriend Megan, and seeks to win over his future, but hostile, mother-in-law. However his best-laid plans turn to disaster when his best friend Temmy gets involved.

“Gary is an unfortunate and is trying not to be a party animal but ends up having the biggest night of his life – with a pole dancer and police involved. There will be all the traditional elements of a farce such as door slamming and mistaken identity, but more relevant to current

The six-strong cast also features Little Theatre favourites Loraine Metcalfe as her mother and Ollie Westlake as Temmy.

Theatre director Debbie Thompson said: “Our audiences love a good farce, but there are not many modern day ones about. Having one written by one of our favourite actors is a real delight and will give us a boost in our summer season during a difficult year for the theatre.

We cannot wait to see how Gary’s night turns out.”

The show runs from August 18-21 at 7.30pm with 2.30pm matinees on August 19 and 20.

Additional Parking Provision Made for Sheringham and Cromer

With large numbers of staycation visitors and day trippers expected to visit the North Norfolk Coast over the coming weeks of the school summer holidays, North Norfolk District Council has considered how it can provide additional parking capacity in Cromer and Sheringham.

Very strong numbers of bookings for holiday accommodation and pop-up campsites, mean that the district can expect an increase in the requirement for parking provision. The additional parking arrangements will be open from 10:00am until 19:00pm from Saturday 24 July

Cromer - Runton Road car park With the cancellation of the Cromer Carnival due to COVID, parking can be provided on the Runton Road car park, including the Carnival Field. Visitors will be directed to long-stay parking at this location from major approach roads into the town – such as the Norwich, Holt and Runton Road, which the council will signpost through additional signage.

We will provide additional signage at both The Meadow and Cadogan Road car parks advising of additional parking at Runton Road to direct visitors to when these car parks are full.

Car parking charges Standard car parking charges will apply at these three car parks as displayed on the car park boards.

Additional parking at the council offices on Holt Road In addition, on Saturdays and Sundays and the August Bank Holiday Monday (30 August), the District Council’s offices car park at Holt Road will be open for public parking on a pay and display basis, providing additional parking to serve the town.

Sheringham - Beeston Hall School cricket field Identifying additional parking to serve large numbers of visitors to the town has been a challenge. After extensive enquiries, the council has been pleased to make arrangements to lease the cricket field at the Beeston Hall School. They will provide additional parking from 24 July to 4 September. Parking at this location will be free. Visitors using this facility will walk into Sheringham via several routes or catch regular bus services from outside the cricket field to Sheringham and Cromer or further afield to Weybourne, Blakeney and Wells via the Coasthopper service.

Signage to this seasonal facility will be provided in the council’s car parks in Sheringham to direct visitors to this facility when other car parks in the town are full.

Opening times This seasonal car park will be open for parking seven days a week between the hours of 10:00am and 7:00pm, with a staffed presence and temporary toilet facilities.

Cromer Times August 2021

Other brands need to be pressed to remove as much moisture as possible before using, and to be honest, anything that saves me time is a winner.

Arm yourself with some Tamari (a type of soy sauce) as it pairs as a flavour so well and is an excellent cooking ingredient. The other secret is marinating; the longer you give it the better the outcome, but if you’re pushed for time, 10 minutes will do.

Totally Tofoo!

Hear me out… Tofu is an incredible ingredient; versatile, affordable and really good for you.

I know it seems a little weird, and I used to think that until I actually tried cooking with it.

It is an amazing protein source, takes up flavours well, has a wonderful texture and once you’ve learned a couple of tricks for preparing it, I promise you, you will want to use it again and again!

I went on a similar journey recently with lentils, and they are now one of my main ingredients.

We all have a responsibility to feed ourselves well and choosing to eat plant based at least a couple of times a week is so good for your gut health, not to mention your heart. I only use the Tofoo brand, simply because it has the best texture, flavours and is already pressed so is simpler to prepare.

This salad is a great blend of interesting textures and tastes, combining sweet and sour, crunchy and soft, and is incredibly filling and satisfying. The recipe below feeds two hungry people, or three moderately hungry people.

Start by marinating your tofu; remove from packet and gently squeeze out any excess liquid, then chop into small cubes.

In terms of jazzing up your summer salads this takes some beating! If you’ve never braved the tofu, now is the time.

Baked Tofu Super Salad

1 pack Tofoo Smoked Tamari Balsamic vinegar Olive oil Garlic salt Smoked paprika Onion salt Cornflour Salad leaves Pumpkin, Sesame and Sunflower seeds (enough to cover the bottom of your frying pan) Cucumber, tomato, peppers, spring onions, all chopped

1 eating apple, cored and chopped Chopped cornichons Sprouted seeds or cress Handful fresh mint and parsley leaves, chopped finely

Place in large bowl, and sprinkle on some splashes of tamari and balsamic vinegar, a small slug of olive oil, then add in a good heaped tsp smoked paprika and a good dusting of garlic and onion salt and stir well. Cover and leave to marinate.

Preheat your oven to 180 ° and dust your tofu with a little cornflour, then transfer your tofu to a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper and put in the oven for approx. 15 – 20 mins, keeping an eye on it so it doesn’t burn (you want it a little crispy on the outside)

Meanwhile, place your seeds in a non-stick frying pan on a moderate heat and gently toast, tossing occasionally and being careful not to burn them for about 5 mins.

Add in a few splashes of both tamari and balsamic vinegar and stir to coat. Continue until the liquid has evaporated off, then place into a bowl to cool.

Prepare your salad, mixing well. Top with the toasted seeds and baked tofu and dress with a little olive oil.

results more safely and consistently.

The No 1 anti aging breakthrough of the decade is available at the Coltishall Clinic This is a skin-resurfacing treatment known as CO2 fractional laser therapy. Its results beat any other non-CO2 laser skin rejuvenation technique.

CO2 fractional laser therapy is ideal for the treatment of sun damage, brown spots, fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity/texture and acne scars. Not only does this offer amazing results, but it does so safely and quickly with little downtime. The secret is out and the benefits speak for themselves.

What will CO2 fractional laser do for me?

If you have spent years in the sun, especially without adequate sun protection, then you know what it can do to your skin. Wrinkles, skin discolouration, sun spots, skin laxity may be reduced or eliminated with fractional laser. Also, if you have scars from acne or other skin injuries, then you may also be a candidate for this procedure. Now using this innovative new laser technology, less than 60 minutes in your doctor’s

office may restore your skin’s youthful appearance. While the aging process cannot be stopped, with proper care you can maintain your rejuvenated skin’s appearance for many years!

How CO2 fractional laser is different This utilizes a ‘dot’ pattern to create thousands of microscopic perforations in the skin while leaving the areas around each ‘dot’ intact. This fractional laser allows for the skin to heal more quickly from the edge of these tiny ‘dots’. The overall procedure is safer, faster and more efficient.

Patients are often amazed at how tight their skin feels immediately after the procedure.

What are the advantages over deep chemical peels [TCA and phenol]?

We do not perform any deep chemical peels as it is not possible to achieve precise control with these and chance of complications is higher. Deep chemical peels also result in prolonged downtime.

Lasers are precision tools and achieve better

Is fractional laser safe?

CO2 dot fractional laser has received clearance from the US Food & Drug Administration.

Fractional laser has less recovery than traditional laser resurfacing treatments. Because the fractional laser creates a shallower, wider pattern, it promotes rapid healing. Fractional laser is minimally invasive and extremely safe, while delivering excellent results.

Dr Sanjay Gheyi MBBS MS FRCS FP Cert., Medical Director and Laser Surgeon of Coltishall Clinic has many years experience with IPL and lasers. He has received intensive one to one training from pioneers of this technology in Italy and has reproduced excellent results in his clinic.

We focus on providing results oriented, cost effective and safe treatments such as IPL Photofacial™, Laser treatments for skin rejuvenation and thread veins, injectable wrinkle treatments, dermal fillers, laser hair removal and laser and cosmetic surgery.

Police officers have been slapped in the face, kicked in the stomach and stamped on by this Government…”

Andy Symonds, Chair of Norfolk Police Federation, reacts to the police officer 2021 pay freeze announced by the Government – on the same day NHS colleagues were awarded 3% pay rise.

Andy said: "I’m not surprised in the slightest that my outstanding, committed and brave colleagues have not only been slapped in the face but kicked in the stomach and stamped on by this Government. Warm words mean nothing from the Home Secretary and the Police Remuneration Review Body.

COLTISHALL CLINIC 01603 736487

My colleagues have increasingly suffered both physically and mentally during this pandemic. They’re having to change shifts and short notice, work cancelled rest days, continually late off at the end of shifts just to make the system work. They give so much that goes unnoticed as they care about the vocation of being a police officer. Police officers believe in fairness and upholding the law along with integrity and a strong moral compass. However, there is clearly the opposite set of attributes at work with the current so called independent pay review system that is akin to playing against a body of people who hold all the cards.”

Reporting today, the “independent” Police Remuneration Review Body stated “This year our remit did not include making an overall pay award recommendation” so it did not bother. It also rejected any notion of a “bonus” for officers for their hard work policing the Covid-19 pandemic. Andy added: “Officers have no industrial rights and accept this with the caveat that we expect to have a fair and robust pay mechanism in which the goal posts cannot be moved at the whim of the Government of the day.

If the system was truly independent, then a pay review body should never be given an instruction from anyone that their remit does not include giving a recommendation on a pay uplift.

WANT A SWEETER DEAL ON YOUR INSURANCE? We’ve seen that local government workers and firefighters have been awarded a 1.5% **FREE PEN WITH ALL NEW QUOTATIONS** pay uplift and our brave NHS colleagues a 3% uplift. So, you can understand why my **FREE BOX OF CHOCOLATES WITH ALL NEW POLICIES** colleagues and I hold the unwavering view that this Government hold us in contempt. **JUST MENTION THIS ADVERT WHEN YOU CONTACT US** The current pay review system is unfit for purpose and must be urgently changed.”

The Police Federation of England and Wales said: “The current pay system for policing is not fit for purpose. We are forced to enter into an inherently unfair process from the start, with the odds weighted firmly in favour of the Government where, it seems, a decision has already been made when they set the parameters for the pay review body.

It is now essential that we review this process and look to find an alternative.

A solution that has the best interests of police officer pay at heart. We will be seeking the views of our members and calling an urgent meeting with our 43 Federation branches from across England and Wales to discuss our next steps.”

concerned member of the public meant they too were caught and soon on their way to join their mother. A successful conclusion not only for us but also the concerned member of the public, the mum and kittens and the volunteers at Venture Farm.

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Stephanie receives many calls from people asking for help with stray or feral cats and this is one area where we can only give limited assistance. We will happily loan a trap for the cat to be taken to the vets to be neutered and in most instances also pay for this to be done.

Unfortunately, we cannot help with the catching. However most people are only too willing to help if it resolves the problem.

A recent call from a lady who had found a feral mum and her kittens is such a case. The mum needed to be neutered and the kittens caught so that they could be found new homes. Ideally the cat also needed to be relocated as the place she was living was not ideal. Most people are aware now that Cats Protection veterinary guidelines advise that feral cats should not be confined but neutered and released either back to their original site or another suitable alternative. Because we would not be able to take the mother cat in Stephanie contacted another local charity, Venture Farm, who have excellent facilities and a specially designated area for feral cats to live, and they agreed to take mum and kittens into their care once mum had been neutered and blood tested. The lady borrowed a trap from us and caught the mother cat almost immediately, taking her straight to the vets for the operation and treatment and then on to Venture Farm. The kittens went to ground for two days but a call from another

Cats react differently when taking up residence in cat pens. Some are quite happy to sit in their unit watching the world go by, but others do not appreciate being confined. We therefore try to ensure they receive any treatment needed so that they can be put up for adoption once their vet has given them a clean bill of health. Being in a new loving home and receiving lots of loving care is the best place for any cat. This is especially true with kittens and although some of ours do take up residence in our pens, many go into the home of one of our fosterers.

Whether in the home or in one of our pens, they do receive lots of hands-on contact with their carers. It is, however, vitally important that they go to their new homes as soon as possible to enable them to adapt to having more space and getting used to different sounds. It is also a special time for their new family, one they will not experience again. A time to bond and enjoy this new mutual companionship.

Therefore, as long as our kittens are healthy, they will have their first vaccination and be chipped at 9 weeks and leave for their new homes shortly afterwards. Their second vaccination and neutering (at the appropriate time) will be paid for by the branch at one of

If you are looking for a cat or kitten (or have any other queries) please give Stephanie a call on 01692 535858. Please be aware that if you are interested in giving one of our cats a home you need to contact by phone rather than by the contact form on our website, www.northwalsham.cats.org.uk where a description and photograph of the cats can be seen. Stephanie does not use a computer for her cat work so there is a delay in responding to enquiries this way and as she deals with enquiries on a first come first serve policy she may have already spoken to someone who is interested in giving the cat a home.

Hedgehog Haven

In the space of 2 days, I have had 2 calls concerning disturbed nests, luckily the mothers were with their young. The first case was a summer house in North Walsham being dismantled there were 6 new-borns (as such are called urchins), taking the dry leaves that were with them, they are now in an outside hut.

The second case, I had a call from a couple at Stalham who were in the process of moving and on moving a plank near a wall discovered a circle of moss, they covered it over again until I could dash over with thick gloves, so as not to get my scent on it. There was a lovely nest with mum and 5 young approx. 2 weeks old, as their eyes were now coming open, picking up the whole nest they are now also safely enclosed in an outside hut.

Testator’s “Insane Delusions” render wills invalid The High Court recently adjourned a "bitter" probate dispute between two siblings over their late mother's estate.

Ms Bond and Mr Clitheroe have been embroiled in a dispute regarding the validity of their late mother's two wills.

A will is invalid if the testator lacked mental capacity at the time of making it. If a will is determined to be invalid and there is no other valid will in place, the testator will die intestate and the estate will pass under the intestacy rules.

If the mother is adjudged to have died intestate, Ms Bond and Mr Clitheroe would each receive a one-half share of their late mother's estate, believed to be worth approximately £400,000.

However, if the wills are valid, Mr Clitheroe

would receive his mother's estate in its entirety.

The Court at first instance held that the wills were not valid due to the deceased's lack of mental capacity. Deputy Master Linwood found that the deceased was suffering from, amongst other symptoms,"insane delusions" at the time of making both wills.

Mr Clitheroe appealed against this decision on the basis that the Master had failed to consider that it was possible to reason his mother out of her delusions and therefore, the delusions did not render his mother incapacitated at the time of making the wills, meaning they are valid.

Mrs Justice Falk, sitting in the High Court, upheld Deputy Master Linwood's decision, confirming that, for a delusion to be present, there must be a false belief which is "irrational and fixed in nature". Whether or not it is possible to reason an individual out of that false belief is not a relevant part of the test. services to

We offer a full range of legal businesses and individuals in North Norfolk.

North Walsham

Our service is modern and comprehensive, whilst drawing on sixty years of experience and legal knowledge to guide and advise our clients with total professionalism.

Mrs Justice Falk adjourned the matter for a period of three months to give the parties the opportunity to reconsider their

positions and attempt to settle the matter without expending further substantial legal costs.

A finding of whether or not someone lacks mental capacity at the time of making a will is a highly fact sensitive issue and can depend on several factors, such as the individual's own mental state, the effect of any mental impairments and the doctor's mental capacity assessment (if one was undertaken). Ultimately, the issue will fall to be decided by a Judge, applying the test set out in the well-known case of Banks v Goodfellow.

If you are concerned that someone close to you has executed a will without having the requisite mental capacity, it is essential that you seek independent legal advice as soon as possible.

Our litigation department possess many years of experience in dealing with complex, high-value contentious probate claims concerning the validity of wills and other disputes involving wills and estates, and our skilled practitioners combine technical knowledge with the ability to give clear, practical, and outcome-focused advice.

talented local artists.

The exhibition, which takes place over the weekend of 4th and 5th September, will again be held in Hempsteadby-Holt Village Hall in north Norfolk and the proceeds will aid the funds of All Saints’ Church, Hempstead.

Organiser, Ian Summers, said: “It is wonderful to be able to stage this popular local event once again and we are absolutely delighted that so many local artists have again approached us to exhibit.

“We are expecting an exciting variety of different styles and media, ranging from fine paintings to photography, ceramics and sculpture by a number of exceptionally talented Norfolk artists.”

Since the launch of the exhibition and sale, the event has raised over £15,000 for church funds.

Ian Summers continued: “The quality of the work on display highlights the amazing talent of so many local Norfolk artists and beautifully reflects why the county provides such an inspiring backdrop for artists of all kinds.

It will be a great show for everyone to enjoy.

All the works will be for sale for a maximum selling price of £250 with many at very modest prices. We hope that many people will be looking to buy and take home some real treasures.”

Aylsham and District Flower Club

The Flower Club has been running since 1953 and meets in Aylsham Town Hall normally on the second Wednesday of each month 7pm for 7.30. However, on this special occasion (our first meeting for 18 months) we will be starting at 6pm in order to have a brief AGM before welcoming David Wright from Tunstead as our demonstrator. David has chosen the theme “Twenty Twenty,“ and it will be very interesting to see how he interprets this with flowers. All arrangements which will be raffled after the demonstration. The meeting usually finishes at 9.30 pm. It is not necessary to be a flower arranger to enjoy these relaxing evenings just somebody who loves flowers.

During the year two Open Evenings are organised, one in the Spring and the second in November with a Christmas theme. We also have a workshop evening once in a while, and a competition for members each year neither of which are compulsory! Members provide arrangements for sale in Aylsham Market Place the day before Mothering Sunday.

Opportunities occur to visit other clubs in the areas well as invitations to take part in Church Flower Festivals. Twice a year we are asked to provide two arrangements in Norwich Cathedral.

Our Chairman, Crystal Dyball runs workshops for those wishing to develop their flower arranging skills.

Why not come along and try us out?

There will be no charge at our opening meeting unless you wish to purchase a raffle ticket or two (50p each). Annual subscription and visitor fee to be decided at AGM.

Contact: Crystal Dyball 01603 291190 email:- crystalflowers@myphome.coop

For many years Aylsham Flower Club has enjoyed providing displays in the Floral Marquee at Aylsham Show.

Hopefully this will be possible in 2022.

During the Summer the club planned two garden visits. We visited Dunbheagan, a beautiful garden near Dereham in June, and in July will be seeing the garden at Highview House, Roughton.

New members and visitors are always very welcome. The committee would be pleased to have one or two more people to join our committee.

Cromer and Sheringham Probus Club

We’re back! On Tuesday 3 August, for the first time in well over a year, the Cromer and Sheringham Probus club met for lunch at the Links Hotel in West Runton. There was no speaker this time – the aim was to catch up informally on the last 16 months. The lunch was excellent, and we enjoyed the chance to meet again. It is hoped to repeat this format in early September and, all being well, to resume in October with our normal lunches followed by a speaker. If you would like to know more about the club, please visit our website www.candsprobus.club or contact our Lunch Secretary Dave Vickery on 01263 824306.

Sheringham Horticultural Society

Sheringham Horticultural Society has been in existence for nearly one hundred years. We have a large membership and our own allotments at Beeston Regis. Needless to say we have been on a sojourn for the last eighteen months.

In July as a membership, we were very pleased to have followed up a talk in 2019, with an excellent visit to Graham and Sally Watts two-acre garden at Dale Farm, Dereham. Graham and Sally who are both retired professional horticulturalists, open their garden for the National Garden Scheme and various other visits.

Set on the edge of the old A47 road and in an urban area, this two-acre garden, with a spring fed pond, that runs through the middle of the grounds, is well worth a visit. Upon retiring from their respective jobs, Graham and Sally searched a wide area of the country looking for a suitable project, before settling on Dale Farm.

With their knowledge and expertise, this garden has been transformed into a utopia of wonderment and amazement. With over 1000 different plant varieties, all tied together with a magnificent lawn and grass paths. You

can spend a considerable amount of time walking around the gardens exploring all the hidden areas. As you do this, you will also discover an incredible amount of sculpture and artistic creations that adds to the structure of the garden.

Finally, when you get bored with that, there is the pond and an abundance of wildlife to find.

The water is stocked with rudd and grass carp to keep the weed down, and the water attracts kingfishers, water voles and, dare I say, otters that have taken their toll on the ducks and moor hens this year.

Members and friends of the Society enjoyed an incredible afternoon together, the first in over 18months, getting back with old friends and enjoying not only the gardens, plants and wildlife but also the hospitality, and home cooked cakes produced by Sally. An amazing garden, created by a truly delightful hard-working couple.

Our final meeting of this year is on Thursday 14th of October 2021 the A-Z of bulbs by Johnny Walkers who recently retired from Taylors Bulbs.

These meetings are open to members and nonmembers, if you wish to know more about SHS and membership please contact the secretary on sheringhamhorticulturalsociety @yahoo.com Chris Wright

A rewarding way to make a difference locally

Motor Neurone Disease: Do you enjoy listening to and helping people?

Are you looking for a volunteering role which fits in around your family, work, studies and other commitments?

By giving just a few hours a week you could make a huge impact.

As an Association Visitor for the Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association you would maintain contact with people with MND, their families and carers by phone, email, via online platforms, or with face to face visits, when permitted. The role is a challenging but rewarding one. By offering confidential emotional support, information and help to access the right services, you can

enable people affected by MND to live their lives more easily.

Katie Moore, Association Visitor with the local West Norfolk Group says, 'Being an Association Visitor is a really rewarding role. It is a privilege to be able to support people in difficult times, and to know that you can make a difference in someone’s life. It's not always about the big things, sometimes just being there is enough.'

Nina Hicks whose late Mother, Pamela Tresize had MND commented on the support they received from their Association Visitor Steve and the support they received from the Kings Lynn and West Norfolk group:

“Because MND is so complex and individual it takes an amazing person to volunteer and I am

forever grateful to Steve Thorn and the compassion he showed my Mum. MND Kings Lynn are exceptional. They provide endless support emotionally and through the provision of information for both the patient and their families at diagnosis, during the illness and afterwards. They are irreplaceable and I thank them every day for everything they did for my mum and continue to do for me. They made a horrific situation a little easier and I will continue to raise money for them.’

For more information on how you can become an Association Visitor, or if you have any other skills to offer, please contact Liz Cooper, local Area Support Coordinator on 01604 800620 or email liz.cooper@mndassociation.co.

Alternatively, you can find out more about MND, the Association, the Association Visitor and other roles and apply online at www.mndassociation.org Judy talks about her role: MNDA Association Visitors.mp4

For more information: Please contact or Liz Cooper, local Area Support Coordinator, on 01604 800620 or email liz.cooper@mndassociation.org.uk.

Cromer Times August 2021

New cancer service opens at Cromer A new service has begun at Cromer and District Hospital to provide further support and care to cancer patients closer to their homes.

A satellite service of the NNUH Acute Oncology and Haematology Service (AOS) has started in Cromer to help patients who are having symptoms or side effects as a result of their cancer or ongoing treatment.

The nurse-led service is currently running three days a week in the Mobile Cancer Care Unit (MCCU) but will run Monday to Friday when the new North Norfolk Macmillan Centre opens.

The service, which is run by advanced nurse practitioners and nurse specialists, can carry out assessments, symptom management and procedures to treat recognised complications from cancer or cancer treatments. They also carry out blood tests, central line flushes, dressings and care of catheters, drains and stomas.

The nursing team said: “We are really pleased to be offering this satellite service to patients closer to their homes in North Norfolk to help them with their symptoms.”

“There is a 24/7 number for patients to call, but we know that for some patients, the Norwich AOS is too far to travel and that some patients may opt to stay at home and suffer with their symptoms. We hope we reach out to more cancer patients in the Cromer area with this service.”

The Cromer AOHS is running 9am to 5pm on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

The MCCU was launched earlier this year in partnership with cancer charity Hope for Tomorrow.

The North Norfolk Macmillan Centre is being built in partnership between Macmillan Cancer Support, the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the N&N Hospitals Charity. The centre will include six chemotherapy treatment chairs with capacity to treat up to 36 patients a day, three new clinic rooms and two new minor procedure rooms, and a Macmillan cancer information and support centre.

They decided to raise funds for the North Norfolk Macmillan Centre because they recently lost a muchloved close family friend, Gill Swallow, to cancer and wanted this to be in tribute to her. They made krispie cakes and advertised them for £2 a box which they sold locally to friends, neighbours, work colleagues and school. Their initial target was £14, which quickly escalated to £100 and upwards to £430; they received several repeat orders even after their closing date!

The girls with their family attended Cromer Hospital on 30th June to receive a certificate and pin badge from Matron Anita Martins and Operational Manager Christopher Grayston.

When is ‘next of kin’ not enough?

by Jennifer Taylor, Solicitor, Hayes + Storr

Whilst you may anticipate that your spouse, children, or other close relatives can access your finances or have a say in your medical care should you become mentally and/or physically incapacitated, this is not necessarily the case.

Next of kin

Many services will ask for details of your next of kin. There are no clear legal rules as to who you can name as your next of kin, and they do not necessarily have to be a blood relative.

Naming a person as your next of kin does not grant them any legal rights or responsibilities.

Rather, organisations ask for their details, so they know who to keep informed about your care.

Legal position

All of your affairs, financial and medical, must be kept confidential and may only be released to certain persons, in certain circumstances.

The law is designed to help everyone retain their independence for as long as possible.

However, later in life, you might need additional help. For example, during the early stages of dementia when the decline of mental capacity happens gradually but you can still understand and make your own choices.

How to ensure your next of kin does have legal rights

One way to give a person legal rights and empower them to deal with your affairs during your lifetime is by appointing them under a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA).

You can arrange LPAs at any time, so long as you have mental capacity. LPAs should therefore be created in advance rather than leaving it until your health deteriorates.

but a person has no control over who is appointed as their deputy.

• A deputyship is more expensive.

There are two types of LPA: •

Health and welfare, which authorises your attorneys to make decisions about your medical treatment and health care, and; • Property and financial affairs, which authorises your attorneys to make decisions about your property and finances.

What happens if you don’t have an LPA and lose mental capacity?

If you lose mental capacity, and you have not made an LPA, then then someone will need to apply to the Court of Protection to become your deputy.

• Deputyships for health and welfare are rarely ordered by the court, whereas an attorney can be appointed under an LPA to make decisions with respect to a person’s health and welfare.

• It can take a long time to apply for a deputyship in comparison to making an LPA.

Without valid documents in place, no person, including your next of kin, can make these decisions for you during your lifetime.

For further information, please call Jennifer Taylor on 01263 825959 or email: Jennifer.taylor@hayes-storr.com.

There are several reasons why LPAs are a better option than a deputyship:

This article is for general information only and does not constitute legal or professional advice.

Please note that the law may have changed since this article was published.

• An LPA allows a person to choose who they want to make decisions for them,

Tennis Club to continue with Covid Precautions after July 19th

Cromer Lawn Tennis & Squash Club’s committee have opted to continue with Covid precautions on the advice of retired GP, Dr Pam Ripley.

In the indoor setting of the Clubhouse, staff will continue to be required to wear masks; drinks and food will be served by table service only in the clubhouse with Rule of 6 per table socially distanced 1 metre apart with no standing or congregating at the bar. Anyone coming into the clubhouse will continue to be required to wear a mask.

The toilets and changing rooms are thoroughly disinfected every morning and will continue to be checked regularly by staff throughout the day with surface cleaning as a protection not only again Covid but other infections such as Norovirus (vomiting) and winter Flu virus known to be transmitted through surface contacts.

Ventilation will also continue to be a priority with doors and windows kept wide open for all indoor facilities.

Where possible food and drink will be served outside with staff and volunteer staff taking food and drink to the marquees at the Club to avoid people congregating outside the Clubhouse door.

Outside, social distancing will remain as part of consideration for others.

North Norfolk Vikings Swimming Club got their first taste of competition for a long while at the "Midsomer Madness" competition held at the UEA promoted by the City of Norwich Swimming Club and under the auspices of Swim England's Covid Regulations which meant no spectators were allowed. A pity, as they would have seen Vikings enter 72 individual races, resulting in 61 best times and 16 top three finishes.

Noah Buchan of Beeston Regis won the 100m freestyle in 1:22.29. ahead of his Viking team mate, Michael Sayer from Holt who went 1:26.45. However, this was not enough for the two ten-year-olds respectively as they both made more trips onto the podium. Noah was

Meanwhile, Michael was a runner up again this time in the 50metre backstroke scoring 43.05

Esme Seaman, 11, was very brave to attempt the 200 Individual Medley long course. Esme finished in a creditable 10 place but with an outstanding twenty-two second improvement ahead of her entered time, subsequently hitting the pad in 4:15.0. In the seniors, Harry Hudson 15, from Stalham, broke a minute in the 100m freestyle in 58.71 finishing fifth, and later went onto break 30 seconds in the 50m with 26.52 respectively. Harry finished fourth after facing fierce competition in both races. At the conclusion Lead Coach Sam Watts said “I'm really pleased with everything we did over the weekend. Let’s keep this up and keep working hard.”
