The grant fund, administered by Historic England, would allow North Walsham to restore the town centre’s historic character with a particular focus on Market Place and its adjoining roads. The plans have been created through a strong local partnership and will complement the planned improvements to St Nicholas Court precinct, which was recently awarded £100,000 through the NNDC Market Town Initiative. It is hoped that Historic England funding would support town centre regeneration by improving accessibility, highlighting the town’s heritage and encouraging cultural activities.

North Walsham applies for £1m in funding to renew and revive its historic town centre

Serving the North Norfolk community since 1990

Continued from front cover... A decision on the bid is anticipated in the autumn. If successful, a programme design phase would follow, entailing further community engagement and consultation preceding the formal start of the project in April 2021.

Cllr Virginia Gay, member for North Walsham Market Cross and NNDC Portfolio Holder for Culture & Wellbeing, said “Our hope is that North Walsham will benefit both economically and culturally, welcoming local residents, the surrounding communities and visitors alike. It was very inspiring to see so many people come together in support of our application.”

Not All Heroes Wear Capes!

Pupils from Millfield Primary School in North Walsham have been busy working in and around their community this term.

Marine and Wildlife Rescue

The children in Reception Class took on the ‘Superhero Challenge’ where they made a list of different jobs they could do to help others including walking the dog, washing the car, helping with the shopping and tidying their rooms - which was very much appreciated by their parents!

Registered Charity 1000313

For help and advice with seals and wildlife, please call 01692 650338.

A special celebration assembly was held and the children who took up the challenge were awarded certificates.

www.marineandwildliferescue.org.uk

Phoebe Fiske was awarded a special certificate as she also raised money for a charity.

Follow our Activities

Year 6 pupils went a step further and went out into the community and picked up litter in the Memorial Park for an afternoon.

Also pupils from years 1 and 2 did their part by taking a trip to Mundesley Beach to pick up litter.

Various excursions into the community is an activity that the children are very proud of. They regularly visit residential care homes and help with other projects in the community. They all felt a real sense of achievement and will keep it going next year.

Abuse and loneliness

Miranda Marshall, Director, Hayes + Storr

As I head off to London for the annual Solicitors for the Elderly (SfE) national conference I am reminded about the real world background to some of the legal work that I do.

This year one of the six seminars covers the hot topic of elder victims of fraud and abuse, including that arising within the family. Another seminar covers the role of the solicitor as an important safeguard in managing finances. The Master of the Court of Protection will talk on whether abuse of the elderly could be considered as a ‘hate crime’, with all the stringent penalties that follow. The relationship of family dynamics and abuse of the elderly and how longstanding unresolved conflict, identity and roles of family members, mental health and financial circumstances may influence how an elderly person is treated. We will learn how to identify these ‘red flags’ and what can be done to protect the elderly.

The NHS website states that according to Age UK more than 2 million people over age 75 live alone and more than a million older people say that they go for over a month without speaking to a friend, neighbour and family member. People can become socially isolated for a variety of reasons, such as getting older or weaker, no

longer being the hub of their family, leaving the work place, the death of spouses or friends, or through disability or illness. Whatever the cause, it’s shockingly easy to be left feeling alone and vulnerable, which can lead to depression and a serious decline in physical health and wellbeing.

The idea that technological advances will be able to replace human-interaction has a scarily science fiction quality to it; ticking (or should that be clicking?) boxes, rather than holding hands.

Wells-next-the-Sea is lucky to have Heritage House providing day care for those living in Wells and the surrounding area. The visitors receive a home-cooked two course lunch, the option of a bath and hairdressing, access to a wide-range of public sector agencies support and NHS services, activities including singing, seated-exercise and the garden, and for many most importantly, companionship.

Volunteers are always needed and are fundamental to the running of Heritage House. They drive and assist on the minibuses, help in the garden and, simply, but most valuably, spend time and interact with the day visitors.

a significant proportion of a very vulnerable sector of our population, i.e. the elderly, has been somewhat forgotten as needing special support. In some circles the elderly are even seen as privileged, compared with young people; perhaps this is not unreasonable when looking at the cost of housing. Targeting resources is important, providing the money saved (e.g. on the removal of free TV licences for all over 75) is spent on our elderly citizens where it is needed.

Happisburgh Lifeboat Station Information that could Save Your Life

This was the message that the RNLI Community Safety Team along with Norfolk Fire Service, Norfolk Police Broads Beat, HM Coastguard, Hemsby and Sea Palling Lifeboats and Lowland Rescue delivered at Richardsons Boat Yard, Stalham for their Norfolk Day event held on Saturday 27 July.

The RNLI Community Safety Team, with all the other organisations, were giving out information that could save your life when around water. The aim was not to stop people from having fun in the water but to do it in a safe way. It has been heart breaking to hear of the number of deaths from drowning in the past few days.

So all the agencies were giving out the same message.

On the beach always swim where there are Lifeguards on duty; if this is not possible then never swim by yourself, always have someone

on the beach who has a mobile phone or other means of getting help. If people are in trouble call 999 and ask for the Coastguard who will get help to you.

Near inland waterways the advice is to not jump into these as you are not aware of what is under the water, i.e. weeds metal objects, posts or how deep the water is and how strong the currents are. Again, if you see anyone in trouble then call 999 and ask for the Coastguard as they know where all the resources are that can get to you quickly, as well as Fire, Police and Ambulance.

if you fall unexpectedly into water:

1. Fight your instinct to thrash around 2. Lean back, extend your arms and legs 3. if you need to, gently move them around to help you float 4. Float until you can control your breathing 5. only then call for help or swim to safety

If you intend to go to the beach or rivers / inland waters then go on the internet to find out as much information as you can, check tide times, where Lifeguards operate, supervised

Sheringham Lifeboat

places to swim inland.

The RNLI has its Respect the Water pages at www.rnli.org.uk/safety... full of useful information on all sorts of water activities telling of the dangers and how to be safe, please use and enjoy yourself safely.

were all involved in the successful rescue when the casualty was finally released.

This was a textbook demonstration of a successful Emergency Services collaboration.

‘The Oddfellows’ B 818 Service Launch – Sunday 28th July 2019

At 17.38 hrs on Sunday 28th July 2019 the Sheringham Lifeboat was tasked by Humber Coastguard to assist local coastguards in their efforts to release a person trapped in a rock groyne on Sheringham east beach.

The casualty had been swimming with his children but when leaving the sea just after high water via the steps near the rock groyne he was knocked off the steps by a heavy swell as he helped the children up the steps. The casualty fell off the steps and got his foot caught between the large rocks. His friends whilst protecting him from the waves called the lifeguards who stayed in the water with the casualty whilst the Coastguards were called who then called the Lifeboat & other emergency services to assist.

Upholstery, Curtains and Blinds

The Lifeboat and most of the crew who were not on the boat attended the scene to assist with the complicated rescue wearing the dry suits in the water to assist the casualty. The emergency services comprising:HMCG, RNLI, Police, Fire Service, Doctor, Ambulance & Paramedic

Fun in the Sun

Absolute Boiler Replacement

On a Wednesday morning in July the North Walsham and District Probus Club got together for the Presidents coffee morning. The sun shone on what turned out to be one of the hottest days of the year so far, luckily there were several parasols to spread a little shade on the patio and lots of lovely refreshments to keep members going. We also had a raffle, to boost club funds, with a good variety of prizes donated by members plus a gift token donated by Waitrose.

We specialise in boiler replacements and full heating systems. A power flush and magnetic filter are included with each installation.

We fit a wide range of brands to fit any budget. It was an opportunity to get to know new members better and to catch up with each other before the summer break as the club does not meet in August.

Finance is available on request, with option of 0% deposit. All major credit/debit cards taken

If you would like to join our duel membership club you can be assured of a warm welcome. We meet on the 4th Wednesday of the month at 10 am in the Jubilee Room at the North Walsham community Centre. For more information please contact Albie or Ann on 01692 402705.

Norfolk’s 2019 Heritage Open Days festival brochure is launched at historic Marble Hall

This year’s Heritage Open Days (HODs) festival brochure with ten unmissable days of free tours, talks, walks, open days, exhibitions, performances and shows planned across Norfolk was launched last month.

Heritage champions, local dignitaries and festival organisers gathered at Marble Hall for the launch – with the historic home of Aviva at Surrey House one of the many venues opening its doors for tours throughout the festival.

HODs is England’s largest festival of history and culture and this year marks the 25th anniversary, with a special ‘People Power’ theme being celebrated across many events. The theme demonstrates the influence groups and individuals have had over history to bring about positive change in their communities – and in Norfolk events include a new Kett’s Rebellion Tour, a display on the Burston School Strike and a guided story of Edith Cavell.

This year’s festival takes place from Friday 13 September to Sunday 22 September, with more than 350 events lined-up in Norwich and across Norfolk.

The festival brochure is available to pick up now from The Forum in Norwich as well as Tourist Information Centres, libraries and venues across the county and electronically at www.theforumnorwich.co.uk/hods.

All festival events are free to attend with many available for visitors to drop-in on the day unless indicated otherwise in the festival brochure. Some popular venues and events with limited space must be pre-booked, with bookings opening on Monday 29 July at 10am.

Communicate with confidence

The HODs programme includes plenty of the usual favourites as well as some exciting new venues and activities. Here’s a taste of what’s on offer: • Take part in a Dare to Dream craftivism workshop at The Forum, Norwich with award-winning activist Sarah Corbett, founder of the Craftivist Collective. • Listen to stories from Norwich High School for Girls which was open from 1877 to 1933 in a new talk at The Assembly House in Norwich. • Visit Bishop Bonner’s Cottage Museum, the oldest domestic building in Dereham which dates from the 1500s, and hear about characters such as war veteran one-armed Jack who was the last resident of the cottage. • Experience how Norwich once was with photos captured by the late Jack Roberts on display for the first time in the Portraits of Life exhibition at The Forum, Norwich. • Visit Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse for a programme of Taboo Tours discussing how death, mental health, LGBT+ and women were addressed in the workhouse. • Travel back to 1578 to discover how Tudor Norwich prepared for Queen Elizabeth I’s visit in the Putting on a Pageant interactive talk for families and young historians at The Forum, Norwich. • Sign up for a new 5k or 10k Heritage Run in Thetford taking in historic sites around the town with fancy dress encouraged. • See inside Norwich’s Dragon Hall, a magnificent medieval trading hall now home to the National Centre for Writing. • Hear about wartime experiences, romance, heroism and tragedy at the 1,000 Years of History event at Haveringland Church. • Take part in a community art piece at the Cathedral of St John the Baptist in Norwich with the A Prayer Answered for Everyone installation. • Visit the Flames to Forum exhibition at the Norfolk and Norwich Millennium Library remembering the library fire 25 years on and how The Forum rose from the ashes. • Take your seat at St George’s Theatre in Great Yarmouth for the Voters, Not Bloaters musical celebration of the women’s suffrage movement in the town. The brochure launch event was organised by The Forum Trust and kindly hosted by Aviva. The HODs programme is coordinated and promoted by The Forum Trust with support from Norwich City Council, Norwich Tourist Information Centre, Broadland District Council, Breckland Council, Thetford Town Council, Great Yarmouth Borough Council, South Norfolk Council, North Norfolk District Council, Visit North Norfolk and many local organisations and individuals.

Wild Goings On At Mundesley Library

Normally libraries are quiet places, especially on a Friday evening. But Mundesley Library was the exception to the rule recently as Mundesley Library Friends held their 5th talk.

The serious work of the centre was not forgotten and David told how Wild Touch keeps the animals either permanently in a safe environment or until they can safely be released back to the wild.

A 30lb tortoise made its way steadily among the bookshelves whilst a carrion crow stole the show by flying and hopping between light fittings, bookshelves and other perches.

They were ably assisted by a Barn Owl, white dove, hedgehog, bearded dragon and a snake. Human support was given by David & Christian from the Wild Touch Wildlife Centre based in Ridlington. David impressed us with his encyclopaedic knowledge of all these animals whilst Christian brought all of them around the nearly 30 strong audience and the children in the audience were so excited by the chance to touch and be photographed with a range of wild animals close up but several of the adult audience members seemed even keener!

To find more about the work of this valuable local charity or to find how you can help visit the website at wildtouch7.wixsite.com/wildtouch.

Mundesley Library Friends now take a summer break with no further talks planned until October. They will not be idle, however, as they will be assisting the library staff in the children’s Summer Reading Challenge which runs throughout the school holidays with a number of events planned including model making and slime making workshops. Further details are available from the Library 01263 720702.

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Tango, whose picture was featured last time, has now left for her new home with an older family who realised that taking on a young cat would not suit their lifestyle or be fair on the cat. She has already settled in and is enjoying having a lap to sit on once again.

I have previously spoken of the problems that can be encountered when getting a cat or kitten from one of pet websites and saw an instance of this on my latest visit to the vets with my own cat. A young lady who I knew from her work with a cat problem in her village, was at the desk having just seen the vet with her very vocal young kitten. Recognising me, she then told me her sorry tale. She had always wanted a Ragdoll cat so had gone on one of these websites and found what she thought was a reputable breeder and paid £200 for a kitten. She had then taken the kitten to the vets because it had a tummy upset and was advised that her kitten was certainly not a Ragdoll but possibly a Siamese cross. Quite a difference. She said the breeder had charged a lower price because the parents did not have the relevant paperwork showing their breed history. She could have had another kitten, with papers, but this would have cost £400. Although there are reputable breeders who do advertise on these sites, not all are, as this young lady has discovered. Ragdoll and Siamese cats have such very different temperaments and, although this kitten will be much loved, it is not what she had intended to buy. If you do go to a breeder via the website, make sure they give you the family history (normally going back four generations) and indicate whether or not they are registered with GCCF. Reputable breeders will charge a price depending on whether the kitten is of “show quality” or, if being sold as a pet, will usually insist that it is neutered when old enough.

Last time when mentioning the roles undertaken by our volunteers, we mentioned the various options available for those with computer skills.

There are also other opportunities available which include registering the cat and owners information on the microchip databases (at present we have access to three of these). Because we have access to these websites, we have also been able to reunite cats with their owners who have already been chipped, either having been handed into our care or found as a stray. For those who enjoy working with spreadsheets and “word” there are other options available, more of which next time.

Moby year old grey tabby, very friendly and loves a fuss

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.

We are now on Facebook. You can find us under Cats Protection North Walsham.

Hedgehog Haven

I have now separated Mother & her babies (late July). She will be going back to be released in time to find another mate & have a second litter. In reality the actual number reared successfully per female in a season is only about two or three, so this mother has done very well in rearing all four of her litter. The four babies I have housed into two couples to avoid fighting. In the wild they would usually grow large & bold enough to wander off on their own at about 6 weeks of age. As they are now approaching that age, it will not be long before the two larger ones will also be going to be released. Find us on Facebook Hedgehog Haven North Norfolk.

A new group of performers took to their pop-up theatre at Yendell’s Health and Wellness Hub on Sunday 21 July to present ‘The 217 Show’, a new variety performance to introduce the Walsham Drama & Singing Group (also known as ‘WDSG’) to the community!

The show fused together elements of drama, poetry, song and dance on a lovely Sunday evening and was compèred by local comedian and WDSG member James Turner. There were rowdy renditions of songs like The Dubliners’ ‘Seven Drunken Nights’, original works written by WDSG members, as well as homages to The Goon Show and Monty Python. As the evening drew in and the theatre darkened, ethereal performances of

Top organist boosts Friends with concert of classics

A concert of organ music classics has raised some “notes” for the North Walsham War Memorial Hospital Friends.

Shakespeare monologues and other recitals of poetry were delivered under stage-lighting.

‘The 217 Show’ came to a close to ‘Always Look on the Bright Side of Life’ and the Walsham Drama & Singing Group was considered officially inaugurated.

This is the first of what will be many new and exciting endeavours from WDSG. The group will meet twice a month to rehearse future productions and hold theatre workshops. Regular social events are also being planned. Its next show will be ‘Streets’, an anthology of original works written by WDSG members and inspired by Ralph McTell’s classic hit ‘Streets of London’, to be performed on Saturday 12 October at Congregational Hall, North Walsham. WDSG strives to be an accessible performance platform for the local community that anyone (over the age of 18) can take part in. To find out more about the group or if you are interested in joining visit walshamdsg.org or find us on Facebook.

The event, staged at the town’s parish church, saw Jon Payne play a programme of music for a summer’s evening.

It ranged from Handel’s Water Music to the Eurovision theme tune (aka Charpentier's Te Deum) and raised £150 which has been split between the church and the Friends.

Focus on Sidestrand Hall Special School

Sidestrand Hall School is a complex needs special school educating over 180 children who travel in from all areas of Norfolk. Our pupils have a wide range of high needs including autism and ADHD with many having more than one condition. Some pupils board in our residential unit for one or two nights per week or in our residential ASD unit for four nights a week.

our charity shop

The school is heavily supported by our registered charity with most of the money being raised via Strands our charity shop in Cromer. Money raised supports activities that enhance pupils learning and personal development such as subsidising trips, paying for visiting activities and more recently the purchase of a bus to convert to a school library.

Our library was converted to a classroom when our numbers increased due to the shortage of special school places in Norfolk. We are currently raising money to buy new library books.

The low prices in Strands are appreciated by the local community – come and see!

We are always grateful to accept donations which can be dropped off at the shop and we are now able to accept electrical items too. The shop is also the only North Norfolk drop off point for Leeway who provide specialist services to adults, children and young people experiencing domestic abuse supporting over 10,000 people per year across Norfolk and Suffolk. Further information is available on their website www.leewaysupport.org

North Norfolk District Council shortlisted for two APSE awards

- Success for Goats on a Slope

networking community that assists local authorities who are striving to improve their frontline services.

North Norfolk District Council has been shortlisted as finalists in two APSE categories - Best Commercialisation and Entrepreneurship Initiative and Best Innovation or Demand Management Initiative.

The annual seminar will take place in Newcastle and the winners will be announced on Thursday 12 September.

This is in recognition of the success of our unique Goats on a Slope, including the utilisation of the Bagot herd for cost-effective vegetation maintenance and subsequent launch of themed merchandise, proceeds from which are re-invested in the project.

Cllr.Sarah BĂźtikofer, Leader of North Norfolk District Council said “I am delighted the innovative and creative approach taken by the team to solve an environmental problem has received such wide spread public support and is now shortlisted for a national award.

Recycling your own fat! Fat transfer for facial and body contouring

a three dimensional face lift or body augmentation.

Age and nature can be very unkind to us. We tend to gain weight were we don’t want and lose it from where we don’t want to! This is due to physiology of ageing, our hormones and metabolism.

We can however cheat a little to help reverse these changes. We can take fat from where we don’t want it and put a little where we want it. Sounds exciting!

A lot of us think about improving our facial or body contours, whether it is to lose some fat from diet and exercise resistant areas or just to look good. Liposuction has come of age and is now performed purely under local anaesthesia. What is even more attractive is that we can now recycle this fat to fill out areas where you have lost volume from!

Fat is your own natural filler. Fat is not merely a passive ‘filler'. It is an active metabolic tissue

and a rich source of various growth factors and stem cells. Use of fat to fill areas of volume loss is not new but we have new techniques and refinements which make it very successful. This procedure is very attractive if you are also considering body contouring or liposuction. Recent problems with breast implants have made fat transfer procedure attractive for breast enhancement.

what happens with facial ageing? The old method of looking at facial ageing was based on a gravitational model: that all things fall over time. The new model of the facial ageing process focuses on the primary importance of how the face deflates and loses volume decade after decade. What was once thought to be sagging has now been understood to be caused by facial deflation. A facelift without volume restoration looks artificial. Replacing lost fat results in a natural look.

what happens with ageing of the body? Redistribution of body fat occurs due to

01603 736487

changes in metabolism and ageing. Fat is lost from certain body areas and face and accumulates in other areas such as chin, jowls, hips and thighs. These localised deposits of fat can be resistant to diet and exercise.

what is fat transfer? Fat transfer is the transfer of fat from one part of your body to another. A doctor must carefully harvest fat cells that are then injected to firm, fill out or plump up other body part like faces, hands, cheeks, breasts or buttocks. This is also known as fat injections or autologous fat grafting. Since it is your own body fat there is no chance of allergic reactions. Some of the injected fat can be reabsorbed by the body and more than one session may be required.

This procedure is performed under local anaesthesia. The fat injections create a lasting youthful appearance.

North Norfolk wins big at Building Awards 2019 North Norfolk District Councils (NNDC) Building Control team and its customers had another successful night at the Local Authority Building Control (LABC) East Anglian Building Excellence Awards 2019.

The awards, saw 13 winners and five highly commended projects receive trophies and certificates. The winners within the NNDC Building Control projects were Church Barn, East Ruston undertaken by Simon Wiseman and Wells Maltings Theatre undertaken by Robson Construction, Chaplin Farrant Ltd and Wells Maltings Trust.

The LABC Building Excellence Awards recognise the importance of building control in England and Wales in creating safe, accessible and sustainable buildings that are constructed to high standards. This year more than 240 construction professionals attended the Awards at the magnificent buildings of the Halls, St Andrews Plain in Norwich on Friday July 5. The awards showcased buildings and design teams that have come up against complex technical or construction issues across East Anglia, with several north Norfolk projects beating out the stiff competition.

The prizes didn’t stop there, Stow Windmill, Paston, North Walsham undertaken by Roger Hough and P H Design and Planning Ltd also received a Highly Commended award. While Robson Construction were also shortlisted for an individual award making it to the regional finals, along with the Holkham Orientation Centre. The winners of the regional awards now go through to the National Finals in London in November.

Cllr Karen Ward, Portfolio holder for Housing and Planning said: “Our building control team goes from strength to strength and I am delighted that they are getting the recognition they deserve. We want to ensure the residents of North Norfolk have access to good value, well designed homes which are built to the highest standards and the team have a key role in making sure this is delivered. I wish them every success at the National awards in November.”

North Norfolk MP rolls up his sleeves for Cancer Research UK The North Norfolk MP met staff and volunteers at the charity’s Cromer shop on Friday 19 July to play his part and show how local people can support the charity. Predictions show that the number of people with cancer in the UK is set to rise steeply by 2030.

I met at the shop who are enabling the charity’s researchers to keep making huge advances in the battle against the disease. While more of us will be diagnosed with cancer in future, there is good news. Thanks to the generosity of its supporters, Cancer Research UK’s work is helping to ensure more men, women and children survive the disease. So I’m calling on the local community to help Cancer Research UK to beat cancer.”

He said: “I’m delighted to support my local Cancer Research UK shop and find out more about the hard work that goes on behind the scenes. Research is cancer’s number one enemy and it is people like the dedicated volunteers

Cancer Research UK’s Cromer shop manager, Sarah Stanforth, said: “Every donation made, every hour volunteered and every person who supports Cancer Research UK takes us closer to beating cancer.”

Sir Norman Lamb MP is backing a call from Cancer Research UK to help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.

The MP is encouraging people to support the charity in any way they can, whether it’s donating or buying from the shop, volunteering for a few hours a week, or signing up for a sporting challenge.

That’s why the MP has joined forces with Cancer Research UK to help accelerate the progress the charity is making and highlight the power of research in beating the disease.

The Barking Guide to the Norfolk Fells

From the pen of Norfolk writer and climber Wayne Wright come a series of three humorous guides to Norfolk that will entertain, inform and equip anyone to appreciate the great Norfolk outdoors.

In the true spirit of outdoor pursuits, the three volumes, under the banner title of ‘The Barking Guide to the Norfolk Fells’ are:

Local law firm Clapham & Collinge LLP has been shortlisted for the Law Society’s prestigious Excellence Awards 2019, the highest accolade for law firms in England and Wales.

• Volume 1 - The Norfolk High Peaks • Volume 2 - The Norfolk Fells • Volume 3 - The Norfolk Lake District

Clapham & Collinge LLP has been shortlisted in the Excellence in Marketing and Communications category.

Each volume comes with information on the geography and geology of the locations, along with suggested walks, fascinating facts and improbable explanations, and is fully illustrated.

Wayne Wright is a true Norfolk climber, born half-way up one of Norfolk’s finest peaks (Dodd’s Hill in the Dersingham Range), and has spent his life trying to get to the top by scaling every imaginable summit in the county of his birth. He now catalogues the peaks, fells and lakes for those who share his love of the great outdoors.

Louis Hilldrup-Boorman, Marketing Manager at Clapham & Collinge said ‘‘We have developed a unique marketing strategy, with Corporate Social Responsibility at the forefront of the business. The firm’s growth, identity and strong reputation is underpinned by this marketing strategy so I am absolutely delighted that we have been shortlisted for the Excellence in Marketing and Communications Award.’’

Law Society president Simon Davis said: “There are more than 140,000 solicitors in England and Wales – to be shortlisted for an Excellence Award is to be recognised as among the very best of the profession.

The volumes are available at Jarrolds of Norwich and Cromer, Holt Bookshop, Green Pastures Dereham, Bittern Books of Coltishall, and all good bookshops. They are £5 each with all profits going to support the Norfolk child and young persons bereavement charity Nelson’s Journey.

“The firms and solicitors shortlisted should be commended for going above and beyond to support their clients, often navigating tricky and sometimes contentious areas of the law.

“With the justice system so under strain, we should take this opportunity to celebrate the incredible work solicitors do day-in and day-out – and to recognise the immense contribution they make to our society.”

Wayne Wright is the nom-de-plume of Paul Rosier, author, speaker and entertainer. For further information on these volumes or others in the “Barking” series, please contact Paul at paulrosier@hotmail.co.uk or by telephone on 01263 515039.

Winners are announced at the Law Society’s Excellence Awards ceremony in London on 23 October 2019.

How could I not have seen it? How could I not have seen it? I really can’t believe it! How could I miss what’s underneath my nose? I must be so obtuse! There’s really no excuse! Only now I see he’s wearing smarter clothes! He spends longer in the bath and I rarely hear him laugh. Why didn’t I see all of this much sooner? Now I think of it, he only smiles a little bit, He used to have a smashing sense of humour. How come I didn’t see what was there in front of me? I should have seen the signs when they first showed! I must be completely dim, but I always trusted him. I can’t believe he’s going down that road!

Cromer to become tennis coaching centre

I noticed he’s been quiet, but assumed that he was tired, I hadn’t realised his state of mind! It’s plain for all to see, that is, everyone but me I’m not just stupid, but completely blind! My head was in the sand and I know I’ve been offhand, But I really didn’t recognise the cause. Now I feel such a fool, no wonder he’s been cool, He’s been going through the He-male Menopause!

The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) entry level coaching course, LTA Level 1, is now being offered in Cromer!

Such courses are only very rarely held in Norfolk and this is the first time for a LTA Level 1 to be held at Cromer. Most LTA courses are held in London and other big centres around the country.

The coaching course is a 3-day course on August 20th, August 21st and September 29th 2019, and is being held at Cromer Lawn Tennis & Squash Club with indoor provision at Easton if weather inclement. This LTA Level 1 course is open to players aged 16 and above and is listed on the LTA courses website www.lta.org.uk and being promoted by Norfolk Tennis (Norfolk LTA).

LTA Level 1 is the entry level qualification for coaching and enables players to become assistant coaches at tennis clubs. Players can then quickly go on to level 2 to enable them to coach groups and then indeed to Level 3 to enable them to coach individuals, working independently. A number of young people find tennis a good way of paying their way through higher education – by assisting with the tennis at College sports centres and giving lessons to their fellow students. Some get summer jobs as coaches in the Mediterranean or even do their gap year as a tennis coach.

It is also a fabulous opportunity for older club players to take up a second career/hobby in coaching. It is never too late to become a coach - I did my LTA Level 1 when I was well over 60!

The LTA Level 1 course is fun – you learn so much in technique, teaching technique and organising groups of children.

Cromer Lawn Tennis & Squash Club sees itself as a club providing a happy fun place for players of all ages and abilities, especially the disabled, to enjoy tennis; but the LTA I level course could be the start of the Cromer club becoming a nursery of tennis coaches.
