Sheringham WI

The summer has started with a bang for Sheringham WI. Several members had returned from an exciting few days in Liverpool for the National AGM. The city of the sixties didn’t disappoint and members enjoyed the Cavern and other exciting venues as well as an interesting AGM at Echo Arena. The whole event was topped off with dancing in the aisles by thousands of WI ladies to a live 60s band.

On a hot and sultry night back in Sheringham but reminiscent of India, Jaya Dance came and put the ladies complete with bindis and full Bollywood costumes through their paces. Everyone enjoyed taking part Continued on page 4...

The Busketeers play purely for the enjoyment that they get from playing and for the pleasure that they give to others. They all give their time and services completely free, with all donations going to support the vital work of the EAAA.

In addition to playing at many scheduled venues and events at weekends in and around Norfolk (holiday parks, carnivals, 40s Weekend, Fairhaven Garden Centre Festival etc), they will be playing every Wednesday afternoon, weather permitting, outside the Crown Public House on Sheringham’s seafront. As always, any support for the Busketeers and for the East Anglian Air Ambulance is very welcome and very much appreciated.

Sheringham WI

Continued from front cover... and thoroughly enjoyed the chance for some exercise in such a fun and different way. I think most of our brains ached afterwards from remembering routines. The evening was topped off with a curry supper cooked by members. Food has continued to play its part with our ‘Ladies Who Munch’ group hot footing it over to the Wiveton Bell for an excellent meal and some really good company.

The sun has continued to shine on us and on a beautiful Saturday afternoon we explored Corpusty Mill Gardens. There are not many chances to see this five acre garden which has been developed since the 1960s by the owner. How someone can have the vision to create such a range and variety of different garden rooms and spaces, we found amazing. There are so many quirky features and attention to details that this truly is a remarkable garden. If you can get a chance to go we all wholeheartedly recommend it. A real hidden gem of Norfolk.

On 27 June we were proud to be asked to host a Vintage tea for the Ottendorf Twinning 30th year celebrations and enjoyed being part of such an important day for the town.

We look ahead to a busy summer in the community with our Big C cuppa on the East Prom on 12 July (19th if its wet!)10.30am - 3.30pm. Everybody is welcome so make a trip added to the seaside in a good cause!

We will be at the Carnival Car boot and also are looking forward to running the Vintage Tea Party for Carnival again. All the proceeds from this, except hall costs for St. Joseph’s Church Hall, go to the Carnival Association funds. Tickets will be on sale shortly in the Carnival Caravan. Make sure you get yours early as they always sell out quickly.

Local Girl Loses her Long Locks for The Little Princess Trust

Last month year old Kayleigh Ellen from Sheringham had a total of 40cm of cut off her hair to raise money for The Little Princess Trust.

At the time of writing, she had received donations totalling £70 but anyone else who would like to donate can do so by popping into Sheringham Handicrafts in the courtyard in Sheringham.

The Little Princess Trust provides real hair wigs free of charge to boys and girls across the UK and Ireland who have sadly lost their own hair due to cancer treatment and other illnesses.

Local mobile hairdresser Alyssa Waterson peformed the deed and our photos show the before and after.

Well done Kayleigh

About with Friends calls out for votes to bag a share of bag charge fund

About with Friends, based in Cromer, is bidding to bag a massive cash boost from the Tesco Bags of Help initiative.

Tesco teamed up with Groundwork to launch its community funding scheme, which sees grants of £4,000, £2,000 and £1,000 – all raised from the 5p bag levy – being awarded to local community projects.

Three groups in every Tesco region have been shortlisted to receive the cash award and shoppers are being invited to head along to Tesco stores to vote for who they think should take away the top grant.

About with Friends is one of the groups on the shortlist.

About with Friends, is a charity based in North Norfolk, which provides a range of services for adults with learning disabilities. Eight of our members are part of our Events Team, which organises community events and give talks and presentations to promote the work of the charity and to raise funds. Being part of the Events Team enables members to learn new skills, play an active role in the community and boosts confidence.

The Events Team has been very successful and is popular with our members. We would therefore like to offer a further ten places which will require additional training, staff support and new equipment including a laptop, projector and PA system.

Steve Smith, Development Manager, said “No-one sells our organisation quite as well as our members. It’s been a delight to train the first eight to write and give presentations and run events, and we would really like to extend this opportunity to 10 more”

Voting is open in all Tesco stores throughout July and August. Customers will cast their vote using a token given to them at the checkout in store each time they shop.

Tesco’s Bags of Help project has already delivered over £30 million to more than 4,600 projects up and down the UK. Tesco customers get the chance to vote for three different groups every time they shop. Every other month, when votes are collected, three groups in each of Tesco’s regions will be awarded funding.

Lindsey Crompton, Head of Community at Tesco, said “We are absolutely delighted to open the voting for July and August. There are some fantastic projects on the shortlists and we can’t wait to see them come to life in hundreds of communities.”

Groundwork’s National Chief Executive, Graham Duxbury, said “We’ve been thrilled to see the diversity of projects that have applied for funding, ranging from outdoor classrooms, sports facilities, community gardens, play areas and everything in between. We’re looking forward to learning the results of the customer vote and then supporting each group

to bring their project to life.”

Funding is available to community groups and charities looking to fund local projects that bring benefits to communities. Anyone can nominate a project and organisations can apply online. To find out more visit www.tesco.com/bagsofhelp

WHY CHOOSE WHY CHOOSE SILVER SILVER & WARD WARD SOLICITORS SOLICITORS in in 2017? 20 17 ?

“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 difficult time for many people to resolve legal issues of worry and concern, for example, making a will or Lasting Power of Attorney. 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. I pride myself in being one of the only solicitors who offffers 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. 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.

“I would say to any potential client with a legal issue or worry in 2017 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. 0 1263 8 23465 or email clare@silverandward.co.uk 01263 823465

Sheringham & Cromer Lions Club Lions International Centenary

01692 409082 n o r f o lk p o w e r w a s h i n g@ gm a il . c o m

Jenny Lind Sensory Room Appeal 2017 is the Centenary Year for all Lions and we were asked to do something special to celebrate 100 years of helping others worldwide. Along with 10 other Norfolk Lions Clubs, our Club decided at the end of last year to do a ‘Pub Dash’ to raise funds for the above appeal which we hoped, together with a very successful street collection for Jenny Lind, would raise £1,000.

We did this and on 24 May this year three members of our Club, together with members of the other 10 clubs involved, visited the Jenny Lind Hospital to see the sensory equipment and to meet the Senior Paediatrician and Senior Nursing Sister for a formal handover plus tea and a specially made ‘Thank You’ cake.

We had a fantastic two and a half hours at the hospital to try out the equipment, including a portable ‘wagon’ which could be taken onto the ward for very sick or immobile children to use the sensory equipment with them.

I can do no better than to copy the explanation from Steve, the qualified Play Therapist, to illustrate the difference this £8,500 has made to patients, both babies, children and occasionally even older men or women.

Adolescent Room/Therapy Room At its most basic, the room can be used as a place to remove the patient from the ward environment, ie the constant background noise and light. This

Sheringham Independent 467

will be especially beneficial to our long term babies, some of whom can be here for months or longer.

The room can be used for patients with complex/ additional needs; with the mats on the floor this gives them somewhere to relax that is not their bed or wheelchair. We can also use the room for patients that are anxious prior to going to theatre or before/ after undergoing a procedure. And of course, adolescents may just use the room as it is or choose to use some of the therapeutic equipment.

How can we use the equipment? Each session can be aimed at achieving different results. So for instance, if we have a young person with autism, the room can be set up with sedate lighting, possibly some aromatherapy and

minimal noise. The important aspect is that they have control over how much stimulus.

We can use the room and the equipment to work on one particular area of a child’s development, but also to introduce our patients to a positive sensory input.

Sadly, too much of a child’s stay in hospital revolves around negative/unpleasant contact, blood tests and cannulation probably being top of the dislikes. In the therapy room we can work to counterbalance that with positive, pleasurable stimuli.

Lastly, since starting this project I have been talking to many people and explaining what the therapy room will be and how it was achieved. The families of our patients, past and present, would like me to pass on how grateful and moved they are by what you have done for us, and I feel confident in saying my colleagues all feel the same way. So a really BIG THANKS Steve The ward has a plaque outside the door of the Sensory Room and also a small one on the ‘wagon’ to acknowledge Lions’ help.

It’s Showtime ‌

Red Loft Theatre Company in collaboration with the Coronation Hall are bringing a week of live music and theatre to Mundesley this August.

The programme comprises three different unmissable shows over six nights. Whether you prefer to watch a series of Musical Showstoppers with songs from famous West End productions, travel back in time and sing your heart out with the 40s Show, or kick back and enjoy The Easy Showcase with a live band and singers, you will have a night to remember!

Red Loft’s NODA nominated director, Tracey Loftus is thrilled to be launching her new company in her old stomping ground of Mundesley and is delighted to be working with such a talented and dedicated team. Amongst the performers is celebrated soprano Zaira Palumbo whose recent credits include supporting the Royal Philharmonic at Taverham Hall and performing at the International Eisteddfod in Llangollen. In addition to appearing in all three shows, she is taking on the role of Musical Director and has been splitting her time between rehearsals in Norfolk, her private pupils and her studies at Trinity Laban Conservatoire in London.

Following recent successes at The Thursford Spectacular and Cromer Pier, Norfolk singer Eddie Bushell has found time to join the company in between his busy schedule with band ‘The Base Notes’. Keeping it local, Mundesley’s very own Lord of Cabaret, Pat Nearney, will be performing his hilarious ‘Cheeky Chappie' tribute to Max Miller in the 40s Show.

The audience will experience a cabaret environment with seating around tables in a relaxed atmosphere with a licensed bar available. All shows will have live music with professional musician and teacher Steve Fordington at the helm.

The shows run from 5 - 12 August with tickets costing ÂŁ15 including supper. For more information or to book see the website www.redlofttheatre.com Telephone booking via Ticketsource on 0333 666 3366 (charged at ÂŁ1.50 per booking)

Northrepps Aerodrome Open Day

Northrepps Aerodrome is holding its Open Day on 22 July.

As on our last Open Day in 2015, Club members will have aircraft available for visitors to look at and talk to the pilots. Northrepps Model Flying Club will have lots to see and demonstrate.

Various aircraft of all types will be arriving throughout the day and there will be a BBQ/ refreshments to enjoy whilst soaking up the aviation atmosphere.

Club members’ aircraft on show will include Paramotors, Microlights, Gyroplanes and Light Aircraft.

Providing the weather is suitable, Club members will again be offering short Air Experience Flights to our local visitors in return for a donation to the East Anglian Air Ambulance, represented by volunteer Jamie Edgehill who will have a stand with EAAA merchandise.

The last open day collected over ÂŁ1500 for the Air Ambulance and we are hoping to do as well this year.

We are planning for Saturday 22 July 10am until 3pm but if wet or very windy we will open on Sunday 23 July instead. Entry is free.

Rock Bodham

which starts from 1.30pm, there will be a children’s entertainment, stalls and fete games, bouncy castle and circus skills for the afternoon. There will be a licensed bar and BBQ all day and into the evening as well as a raffle on both days. The event gave away more than £3000 last year to a range of local charities and has given away more than £15,000 since its inception in 2012.

The final acts for this year’s Rock Bodham charity music festival have been confirmed.

The event, which takes place over the weekend of 22 & 23 July will be held at Bodham Playing Field on Saturday 22 July and the village’s Red Hart pub on Sunday 23 July.

Britpop covers band The Stereotypes and local bands Generals and Soul Alliance are amongst the bands to have been confirmed alongside DJ’s Naughty Daughty and 2016 Sheringham battle of the bands winner Liberty Popey. The headline acts for Saturday 22 July are Bloodshake Chorus and on Sunday 23 July Red Leaf.

The event organisers have put out a plea for more volunteers for the day to run a stall or game, or to assist on the BBQ and on the gates.

Festival secretary Callum Ringer said of this year’s line-up “Bloodshake Chorus played for us last year, in the middle of the afternoon, and went down really well - it was a no brainer to ask them back, and to put them higher up the bill. We are also looking forward to welcoming back Soul Alliance, and Generals from previous years, but we also have some new acts, and I’m really excited for Knotted, The Stereotypes and The Dulcet Tones”.

On Saturday 23 July, alongside the live music

ND ME M CO RE

Callum added “To be able to make as much money as possible, we really need as many people to help as possible. We have stalls and games ready to go but they won’t run themselves, many hands make light work and if people can give up a couple of hours we can ensure we make as much as possible for charity.

Tickets for Saturday 22nd are £5 for adults and £1 for under 12s, under 3s free. Free entry to Bodham Red Hart on Sunday 23rd July – donations taken on the day. The full line up is as follows :

Saturday 22 July : • Libertey Popey • Generals • Soul Alliance • TBC • 50 Miles High • Knotted • Dulcet Tones • The Stereotypes • Bloodshake Chorus • Naughty Daughty - DJ Set

Sunday 23 July : • TBC • Jim Higgs • Lovin' handful • Fat n Furious • Anix • Red Leaf

Cromer Pier Show 2017 - celebrating 40 years of first class variety from one of the UK’s most famous pier theatres Back for another recording-breaking 40th year, Cromer Pier Show is now the only ‘end-of-thepier’ summer variety show in the world and, if advance bookings are anything to go by, this year will see a high demand for tickets.

Returning, as top of the bill for a second year is comedian Phil Butler, who also appeared in the 1998 and 1999 shows. Phil is truly a comedy act like no other, using his razor sharp wit to inject his hilarious take on entertainment. His stage skills include magic, juggling and ventriloquism which, added to his wealth of experience, has made Phil a hit at both mainstream and alternative venues.

Also returning for a second summer season is Australia’s favourite comedy juggler, James Bustar. James appeared on Australia’s Got Talent and is now a headline act at performances and festivals across the globe. James may be the man that brings the laughter, but when it comes to performing, his dedication is no laughing matter! James has taken the business of laughter seriously, and has graduated from the World Renowned Flying Fruit Fly Circus. He can legitimately claim that he is one of Australia’s most talented and skilful jugglers. James has not revealed what he will be performing in this years show but one thing is certain it will be a mixture of daredevil and funny.

Making his first appearance at the Pavilion Theatre is comedian Joey Howard, one of the most enduring and versatile performers, whose oneman show includes comedy sketches, musical routines and impressions. Joey specialises in observational comedy and mimicry, his show having been described as “a melodic multitude of madness and mirth”. His is looking forward to this his first year in Cromer and performing on one of the most famous stages in the UK and working with Phil and the rest of the cast. Making a welcome return for a second summer season is female lead vocalist Emily Yarrow. Male lead vocalist Lee Bright is making his first

appearance in the Cromer Pier but is no stranger to Norfolk having appeared in the Thursford Christmas Spectacular. Lee is excited about his first summer season in Cromer and being part of such a famous show.

No variety show would be complete without its dancers and Cromer Pier Show is no exception. The Seaside Special Dancers will be working as hard as ever and displaying their talents in all forms of dance from tap to ballet. Add to this fabulous mix of talent, colourful costumes, stunning sets, lights and music, and you have a show to remember – the FAMOUS Cromer Pier Show.

The very talented and experienced Di Cooke returns for another year as devisor, director and choreographer, bringing her wealth of experience to a show that is now recognised nationally as an ‘incubator’ for talent, with many of today’s stars having trod the boards of the famous Pavilion Theatre, including Bradley Walsh, 2013 Britain’s Got Talent finalist ventriloquist Steve Hewlett and 2014 BGT finalist comedy impressionist Danny Posthill. Di is not giving much away about this year’s show, except to say that it will be a celebration of 40 years of what is now the only ‘end-of-the-pier’ summer variety show in the world and, as such, will give audiences an ‘all round variety show experience’.

No Second Bite of the Cherry

Defending your money from the ‘Ex’ if you die By Miranda Marshall, Director, Hayes + Storr Back in the 1990s I made a Will for a feisty professional woman who left the following unforgettable bequest to her ex-husband: ‘a bottle of gin, a bottle of whisky and a tin whistle, so he can whistle for any more’.

When couples divorce it is standard practice that their rights to claim against each other’s estate under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependents) Act 1975 are excluded, so that they cannot come back for a second bite of the cherry, if the ex-spouse dies. Even so, there are still ways that an ‘ex’ (or your child’s ‘ex’) might get at your money through the ‘back-door’.

A major area of concern is provision by your Will for children or grandchildren who are approaching adulthood, but who are not yet financially mature or who might be subject to pressure or undue influence (perhaps by their surviving parent, i.e. your ex-spouse or ex-son/daughter-in-law). I have seen cases where the child, having received assets from their late parent is then subjected to heavy-handed ‘guidance’ from their surviving parent, who then manipulates their newly-bereaved and vulnerable child so as to gain control of the young adult’s inheritance. The intended inheritance could then be spent on bolstering the ex’s lifestyle

rather than being a nest-egg for the young adult.

This can be guarded against by creating a discretionary trust in your Will so that, although the young adult has the benefit of the money, the control of the funds is only handed over once the young adult shows financial maturity and sufficient independence of thought, perhaps on getting their first job and looking to use their inheritance to buy their first home.

to encourage your child to make a Will so as give the assets back to you or to a sibling. The same applies to a gift to a grandchild whose parents are divorced, and where the young adult has not yet gained the financial knowledge and independence to manage their funds. This is especially so if you also lack confidence in the ex-son/daughter-in-law’s financial competence or motives.

The reasons for deciding to put in place such arrangements should be carefully documented in a professionally-drawn Letter of Direction, (sometimes called a Letter of Wishes) backed up by thorough file notes (which can remain confidential, unless required), following a consultation with an experienced qualified lawyer.

If you are divorced or separated and want to give assets to an adult child, have you thought about what would happen to that gift, if your child were to die? The gift would not come back to you or your family. If the child is adult, unmarried and has no children, then the intestacy rules will divide their estate equally between your child’s parents: i.e. half to you and half to the ‘ex’. To protect your gift, you could in your lifetime create a trust for your child or lend your child the funds, evidenced by a formal Promissory Note. Another route is

Beautiful Eyes at Coltishall Clinic

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.

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 skin’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. So what are the effects of ageing that need to be addressed? 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. In addition to these changes, wrinkles form because of repetitive movements of the frowning and smiling muscles.

How can we help you reduce first signs of ageing around the eye area? Essentially we can address all three elements of ageing resulting in total rejuvenation. When you address all elements of age-related changes you produce 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 or deep chemical peels. We do not recommend deep chemical peels around the eye area because chemicals can be difficult to control. Lasers however are very precise and can work in a very predictable manner. 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. Gravity and sun damage takes its toll along with genetics and ageing. There are changes with drooping of the eyebrows along with laxity of the thin eyelid skin.

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 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.

Exhibition by Ian Houston Norfolk and Beyond at

THE WESTCLIFFE GALLERY

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.

A Grass Snake and a Slow-worm were seen (9 April) Tortoiseshell and Red Admirals were flying (11 March) Mourning Bee and a Common Whitethroat was noted by Jane Crossen. Another and a Common Lizard was seen. A Slow-worm was Slow-worm and a Ruby Tiger moth were reported by Mark (13 noted (13 March) along with overflying Redwings and April) and two Ring Ouzels were seen flying south (16 April). A female Redstart Comma butterflies. Common Toads returned to the pond (15 March) and a Tree was seen briefly the following day (17 April). A Cuckoo was heard distantly (24 Bumblebee was also seen. A flock of 50+ Redwings were noted (19 March) with April) and another Ring Ouzel was seen (29 April). The Ramsons Hoverfly that a Red Kite heading west, the following day (20 March). Mark spotted the dayhas been seen for a number of years just south of the Commons finally turned up flying moths, Orange Underwing and Early Longhorn (25 March). The Early on a small patch of Ramsons within the Commons boundary (30 April). The first Longhorn is a micro-moth and tends to live in the tops of Sallow so can be easily marsh orchids, Butterworts and Cotton Grass were all flowering by the end of overlooked. The earliest sighting known from the Common of the appearance of the month. the Orange-tip butterfly was also recorded. A March sighting in Norfolk is very unusual. Mark spotted another Red Kite (30 March) heading east over the Common and also Holly Blues were seen. This spring there appeared to be quite a local movement of Red Kites as many were seen passing over North Norfolk at this time. Small Tortoiseshell numbers were up and many were busy laying eggs on nettles throughout the Common (5 April). With so many butterflies, which Ramsons Hoverfly had overwintered, many individuals were quite worn having lost their wing scales. One such butterfly was seen to be worn but when it landed and opened its wings it turned out to be similar to a very unusual aberration, semi-ichnusoides. This aberration usually has a rich orangey-red ground colour on the fore wings and blackish hind wings and is thought to be caused by high temperatures when

Mark reported a Lesser Whitethroat (1 May) along with Green Hairstreak and Large Red Damselfly (5 May). A Reed Warbler appeared (10 May) but did not stay long, as did Willow Warbler, which also soon left the site. For the last two years Willow Warblers have arrived but left the site after a few days and there have been no breeding records. The reason for this may be linked to a population shift towards the west and north of the UK for the species, which is believed may be a reaction to climate change. Other species are showing similar trends. The micro-moth, Meadow Longhorn, which is associated with Cuckoo-flower was present in many areas of the Common (11 May) and an unusual visitor turned up at the pond, a Common Sandpiper, which was spotted by Simon Chidwick. The first Painted Lady of the year was seen (18 May) as was the Broad-bodied Chaser, and another Cuckoo was heard early in the morning (20 May). The Keeled Skimmer dragonflies were noted a week earlier than last year (21 May) followed by the Four-spotted Chaser (22 May). A Fulmar, obviously a stray from the cliffs, was noted overflying (25 May) and 10 species of butterfly were on the wing (26 May) including the Common Blue. Also seen was an uncommon bee, the Red-girdled Bee, which is a first record for the site. A Broad-bordered Bee Hawkmoth was observed laying eggs on low-growing Honeysuckle (28 May). Mark recorded a Hobby passing over (30 May) and found a Red-veined Darter in the central marsh. With some uncertainty about which way the weather will turn for the start of summer we can look back at what has been a very interesting spring. Francis Farrow, Hon.

Angel Packs Update

The SiS Angel Pack Initiative continues to be a huge asset to Sheringham. The Angel Packs have now been used 85 times in the 5 years that this initiative has been in operation and are now supported by Sheringham Carnival.

All 67 Angel Packs have recently been refurbished with new labels and up to date swabs and wet-wipes. This obviously costs money and a very successful fundraising stall was held at the recent Crab & Lobster event in Sheringham, raising £185 for the funds.

The best score for the Grab a Crab and Lobster was 54 seconds, which was achieved by Louis Payne. Louis won a small hamper of sweets. The money raised will be used to replace or renew the Angel Packs as required. Thank you to all who supported us!

If you have any queries regarding The Angel Pack Initiative or wish to make a donation please contact SiS - c/o Diane Evans 01263 823889.

Director of Cambridge Film Trust Tony Jones said “We are devoted to engaging audiences with all genres of film and in a variety of locations but have a particular passion for archive. Screen-on-Sea will offer audiences the opportunity to see local archive of the last century in the same locality where it was filmed and make a special connection with the past. We are so pleased North Norfolk District Council could support us in helping bring this wonderful idea to the Norfolk Coast.”

The foam topped waves are all around And wind is whistling through the mast, The captain stands up on the bridge Remembering gales in days long past. The day before when he set sail In sunfilled seas so calm and still, It seemed this calmness would not end The sea would never change at will.

He was prepared, the forcast heeded Experience told of storms at sea, When ships had foundered, crewmen lost For this honest seafarer it would never be.

We recently had a call from a concerned cat lover about a little cat which she believed could possibly be a stray as it was spending so much time in her garden. Although she had contacted close neighbours and put posters up she had not been able to find out who the owner was.

Because in law the cat is regarded as a person’s property it is essential that all efforts are made to establish whether or not the cat does have an owner. In these instances we always ask the person to put paper collars with a contact telephone number on the cat. Within two hours the owner had been in contact and was able to reassure the lady that the cat had not been abandoned and had a home. Apparently, like so many cats, this little girl had been visiting several houses for a snack which explained her increasing girth. She had also been enjoying a saucer of milk, which because most cats are lactose intolerant, can give them diarrhoea. A nice bowl of water is a better option (and this applies also to hedgehogs, should you have any in your garden).

We also get calls from people whose companion is missing, which is a very distressing time for them. Fortunately many of these do turn up and they may have been shut in a garage or shed. When this happens it is important to contact your neighbours and ask them to check. A call to the vets advising them your pet is lost and giving them details of the animal concerned is also a good idea. Sharing the information on Facebook can also help to reunite a pet with its owner. We also advise people to register the loss on Animal Search UK’s website (a link to which can be found on the Lost and Found page on our website. We saw an instance of how well this can work recently (and in cases like this we would not suggest going down the paper collar route). We were contacted one Sunday evening by someone concerned about an elderly cat which had turned up in their garden which they thought required medical attention. We agreed to cover the cost of initial treatment in the hope that the owner could be found and he was taken to Westover that night for Chris to treat. Tests were undertaken but in the meantime I had looked on the said website and saw a cat listed there as lost which fitted the description. Contact was made with the family who had recently moved house and who were delighted to have their cat back home.

Plants for Pooches

Now that the warmer weather is here and we turn our attention to planting up our pots and baskets, give a thought to your dog and what your garden can do for them.

Creating a sensory garden for your dog is something every owner can do - it can be as simple as a few flower pots and can be as rewarding for you as it is for them. Planting carefully selected medicinal plants is based upon the practice of Zoopharmacognosy the process where animals self-medicate using their sense of smell which is influenced by their physiological and psychological needs. It sounds complicated but the theory is quite simple and there’s a wealth of information available on the internet to offer you guidance.

Think about your dog and what plants might appeal, fill a few pots and experiment. As always, should you be concerned for your dogs’ wellbeing in any way, always consult your vet. . Here are a few of the more common plants that you should find readily available: Chamomile: dogs suffering from anxiety or skin/stomach upsets will be attracted to the scent of this plant. Lavender: helps to reduce anxiety and other nervous conditions. Marigolds: dogs experiencing grief or emotional distress will often sniff this out. Marshmallow: known to help animals with delicate stomachs. Meadowsweet: often selected by dogs with digestive problems, arthritis and rheumatic conditions. Mint: good for cooling properties and will often be selected by dogs who suffer from skin

irritations. Plantain: helps gastric irritation and inflammation. Valerian: often selected by anxious dogs for its calming effect. Violets: Nervous dogs or those who have recently changed home may enjoy sniffing this plant.

significant health and behaviour benefits. Rabbits also need yearly vaccines against fatal diseases such as myxomatosis and VHD (viral haemorrhagic disease). There is also a new vaccine available at Toll Barn vets against VHD2 (a new strain of VHD). Rabbit’s teeth grow continually (an average of 1cm a month!) and so we advise regular check-ups to spot signs of dental disease early. This is why diet and enrichment are so important.

parasite treatment and also help with any behaviour problems you may encounter. We can also microchip your rabbit to help a safe return should he or she wonder off! With the right care and love rabbits and guinea pigs make fantastic companions, each with their own personalities so if you would like us to help care for your rabbit companion please give us a call on 01692 407126.

Rabbit and Guinea Pig Awareness at Toll Barn Vets Our annual Rabbit Awareness Week arrived at Toll Barn Vets last week and we were delighted to see so many lovely rabbits for their free health checks and goody bags. As one of only three accredited Rabbit Friendly Practices within Norfolk we are keen to offer the best care possible for Britain’s third most popular pet. As more is discovered about rabbit behaviour, attitudes have started to change with regards to rabbit husbandry and welfare. Rabbits are social creatures and in the wild live within complex social structures and pet rabbits benefit from living with a rabbit friend as they will play, groom, and comfort each other just like cats and dogs. It is advisable to neuter all rabbits as it not only stops unwanted pregnancies but also has

Rabbits can live up to 10 years and following the excellent response to rabbit awareness week Toll Barn Vets are extending our rabbit and guinea pig friendly clinics. This means we can offer free of charge clinics with our qualified veterinary nurses throughout your pets’ life so we can detect signs of ill health early, offer the best advice about preventative healthcare such as vaccinations and

North Norfolk District Council working with local businesses to crush litter Philip Platten, of Platten’s Fish and Chips, said “It is great we are working with local restaurant in Cromer and Wells

Solar smart ‘Big Belly’ bins to help at litter hotspots Twelve revolutionary bins are being installed by North Norfolk District Council in Cromer and Wells to reduce litter overspill during busy times.

The ‘smart’ solar-powered litter bins are larger than a traditional street bin and when litter reaches a certain level inside, or at preprogrammed intervals, a hydraulic ram compacts the litter so levels do not overflow.

Restaurant businesses that create high volumes of packaging waste are contributing funds to the NNDC project, including Cromer’s No 1 and Platten’s and French’s fish and chip shops in Wells.

The new Big Belly bins can take approximately eight times as much litter as a traditional street bin and are powered by a solar panel fixed to the top of the bin, using sunlight to charge the internal battery. The sealed bins cannot be accessed by vermin such as rats or birds, and Council Officers can monitor contents levels or check when the bins have been emptied using an online system.

Marcus French, of French’s Fish and Chips, said “As a take-away fish and chip shop we understand we share some responsibility for the packaging overflowing out of bins near our restaurant in Wells. We are pleased to be able to show the community we care about our town and the local environment by contributing to these new solar bins.”

The Sea

To live near the sea is a blessing, Like watching an ongoing game, Or a picture that's constantly changing, No day is ever the same. The sea is deceptive and lethal, With plenty of differing moods. It's also a brilliant provider Of a range of incredible foods! From seaweed to fish, many a dish Can be caught 'neath the waves of our seas. Lobsters and crabs, sardines and dabs Taste great cooked on outdoor 'barbies'! Don't be fooled by this wonderful picture Of blue sea and warm golden sun, These tides drag the unwary under, They take man, woman, child anyone! Take note of the flags on the beaches.

“We’re really pleased to be working with North Norfolk District Council to keep our community cleaner and tidier and we know residents and visitors will appreciate the results.”

North Norfolk District Council is in talks with other restaurant outlets to assess further opportunities for funding.

At a Cabinet meeting in June it was decided to start a formal procurement process for a new Waste and Related Services contract when the present contract with Kier Environmental Services ends in 2019. It is hoped this process can be done in partnership with other local authorities in Norfolk in order to improve value and quality of service. NNDC is looking to ensure that more smart technology such as the solar powered compactor bins is able, to be integrated into any new waste contract.

Cllr Annie Claussen-Reynolds, North Norfolk District Council Cabinet Member for the Environment, said “Putting smart technology to work to help protect the environment is smart in itself. During the trial period these bins showed they could reduce litter overspill and therefore the amount of litter being blown around our streets. This then has a knock-on into saving money on the number of visits our contractors have to do to empty the bins.

At your peril ignore their advice! They warn where and when it is safest, Disregard and you'll pay a high price! One morning the sea's calm and gentle, Waves licking and lapping the shore. The next day it's raging and crashing, Eroding the coast even more! Beware inbound tides round the marshes, For it races through channels and creeks. If you're caught in this maze, pray you can raise The alarm, or the outlook is bleak! So remember next time you go swimming, To stay well within safety bounds, Or your visit could end with eyes brimming With tears, as you're swept out and drowned! Frances Wraight

businesses to finance the solar bins project as it has been a change in take-away packaging that has led to an increase in litter volume at peak times. It’s good to know these businesses are recognising their duty to their communities and environment. We hope these areas of Cromer and Wells will be noticeably cleaner and low on litter, and we hope other businesses will come forward to offer support to the project.”

Paston Sixth Form College launches public consultation for proposed merger with City College Norwich

Paston Sixth Form College in North Walsham is launching a public consultation to seek views from members of the community on plans for a proposed merger with City College Norwich.

The two Colleges have been in talks to work together since the start of the year, as part of the Area Review of Post-16 Education in Norfolk and Suffolk led by the FE Commissioner, Richard Atkins.

Due to the success of these discussions, and following a recommendation from the Area Review, there is now a proposal that the Colleges merge together by December 2017 and a formal consultation about that plan is being announced today.

The consultation invites students, parents, staff, local employers and the wider community to express their views on the proposals which aim to expand the choice of post-16 education options in North East Norfolk.

Overall, the plans will result in the creation of a resilient and financially sustainable organisation that will widen the educational offer for existing and prospective students, employers and the community in North East Norfolk. The merger will also ensure a skilled future workforce for the local area.

The final decision, taking into account the

outcomes of the consultation as well as a process of business planning and due diligence, will rest with the governing bodies of each College.

Kevin Grieve, Principal, Paston Sixth Form College, said “This is all about growth. By becoming one institution, we want to work together to become an even stronger educational force than we currently are. We have a proud history and we are determined to build on this history by joining with City College Norwich to meet local needs in North East Norfolk.”

Corrienne Peasgood, Principal, City College Norwich said “We are very excited about the proposal and are looking forward to hearing what members of the local community think of our plans. Both institutions have a strong history and it is our aim to maintain, develop and celebrate their individual strengths and specialisms following the merger. After completion, we strongly believe the wider choice of courses and increased progression routes available will provide even more opportunities for young people to achieve their individual aspirations in North East Norfolk.”

A document setting out the full proposal and the consultation arrangements (with details of how to make your views known) is available

Kevin Grieve Principal PSFC and Corrienne Peasgood Principal CCN

at: www.pastonccn.co.uk or on request via email (pastonccn@gmail.com). It can also be obtained from FOUR Agency, Hill House, 20 Hill House Road, Norwich NR1 4BE.

The Principals from both institutions will be available at Paston Sixth Form College to discuss the merger with members of the public between 1pm and 6pm on Thursday 22 June, Friday 23 June and Monday 26 June. Please report to the College’s reception at the Griffons site in North Walsham (NR28 9JL).

Replies to the consultation need to be received by midnight on Saturday 22 July. Both Colleges will consider all responses received by that date and will publish a summary of the consultation and its outcomes by 23 September 2017 (to be available at www.pastonccn.co.uk).

Treats on offer at North Norfolk’s premier arts festival

Big names at this year’s Holt Festival include Detroit born original 70s leather-clad rocker Suzi Quatro who has a catalogue of songs that have sold millions of records worldwide and earned her 101 weeks in the UK charts. Suzi has also enjoyed a long acting career appearing in TV shows including Happy Days, Minder, Absolutely Fabulous and Midsomer Murders as well as West End theatre runs, but she’s bringing her 7-piece band to Holt’s spectacular Theatre in the Woods to rock!

From closer to home, Rubber Ring is written and performed by High Kelling resident James McDermott, telling the story of sexually confused teenager Jimmy. Jimmy is a Morrissey obsessive stuck in Sheringham and when his idol is set to perform in London Jimmy flees to the city to find his hero and himself. Based on James’ own experiences of struggles with sexuality and regional identity, this insightful and very funny one-man play received rave reviews in Edinburgh and

London. Other drama includes verbal and visual comic treat The Gin Chronicles, set in 1940s radio studio

Suzi Quatro

Former UEA student Luke Wright is now one of Britain’s most popular poets. His multi award winning play ‘What I Learned From Johnny Bevan’ took the Edinburgh Festival by storm, sold out a three week London run, a 25 date national tour and he won an invitation to perform it at The Houses of Parliament! At Holt he will perform poems from his recently published book The Toll. A wordsmith at the top of his game, Luke’s verse ranges from the laugh out loud funny to poignancy. ‘Funnier

than most of the comedy on offer and more thoughtful than most of the theatre’ said one critic.

Author talks include former Observer Literary and Associate Editor, Robert McCrum, IVF pioneer Lord Robert Winston and Professor Michael Trimble with his tales of The Witches of Norfolk. One of the UK’s most experienced and respected broadcasters, Sue MacGregor CBE, will be in conversation with former MP Alan Johnson reflecting on 50 years in radio. There’s also a visual art programme featuring two stunning loan exhibitions, the popular art trail and the winner of The Holt Festival Sir John Hurt Art Prize.

This year marks the end of Artistic Director Charles Pugh’s three-year tenancy. He commented ‘I’m so proud of this programme. I think, perhaps the most diverse we’ve yet delivered with some of the finest music, theatre, comedy, cabaret/burlesque and literary events that Holt has seen’.

There’s lots more at the Festival which runs from 22-30 July. Full details and ticket bookings at www.holtfestival.org

Children’s Art Project Exhibition. Saturday 22 - Sunday 30 July Created by Holt Primary School Children . Led by Liz McGowan, Environmental Artist. At St Andrew’s Church, Holt

This summer the environmental artist Liz McGowan, is working with Holt Primary school children, to create an exhibition on the theme of ‘A Host of Angels’.

In June, Liz will be undertaking workshops with each of the year groups, using locally found natural materials. Taking Liz’s prototype example (on right) as a starting point, years 3 & 4 will be using grasses, seeds and petals together with recycled paper that they have made themselves.

Liz will take them through the process of making the paper 30

pulp and drying it on a frame to form the angel’s silhouette. These will be made into mobiles. Years 5 and 6 will be making larger angels using sticks, branches, reeds and hessian, and they will be collaborating with years 1 and 2 who are making paper feathers for the wings. All the completed angels will be installed throughout the church, flying from pillars and suspended in the air to create the children’s vision of a heavenly host of ‘Norfolk’ angels.

Travelling Companions

It seems I’m surrounded by objects, Gifted or bought over time, Some of which may have been costly, Others more ‘nickel and dime’. A few are still shiny and perky But mostly they’re showing their age. While one or two, if I am honest, Have got to the bric-a-brac stage. Yet each has the power for turning Today into sweet yesterday,

Lighting up memory’s shadows, Coaxing the rose from the grey.

Are they just inanimate bygones, Tethered to times gone before, All needing dusting and shining, Becoming a chore and a bore? Or are they all markers and milestones With power to comfort and bless, Each one an echo and part of Eternity’s everyday dress.

North East Norfolk Futures Event 2017 – more choice for Norfolk students

On Tuesday 11 July Paston Sixth Form College is teaming up with Beacon East Careers and North Norfolk District Council to host the 2017 North East Norfolk Futures event. This year the event is significantly larger than previous years with more universities and employers attending.

School pupils, sixth form students and their parents from all over the local area are invited to attend. The event is designed to inspire and motivate students to research their future career goals. This year’s event will feature over 30+ universities with students able to talk to representatives about the different courses on offer at each university, and also find out how to apply.

In Norfolk we are lucky to have a wealth of

industry right on our door step and KLM Engineering, British Sugar and OPITOY, oil and gas industry and many more have agreed to attend the event. Norwich, is the 4th largest contributor to medical research in the country after London, Manchester and Birmingham and with Norwich Research Park and STEM NET attending the event alongside a number Science and Technology stands, it will be a good event for those interested in science. A number of national companies such as Tesco, Lloyds Bank, McDonalds, Aldi and Marriott Hotels are also attending.

Students and pupils from local schools will have over 50 employers to visit, where they will be able to find out about careers in all sorts of industries from NHS to Construction, to Music and Engineering, Law and Accountancy,

KELLING PROBUS CLUB

Kelling Probus Club held its June meeting at The Dales Hotel Upper Sheringham on 15 June. After a very tasty lunch for 26 members, the Club welcomed Janet Ellis, a local author and self publisher to tell us about 'Self Publishing'.

Janet began her talk by outlining the various options for having a book published - several could be ruled out immediately due to high cost. However, Janet, who has written three books all with Grecian background, was able to tell us how she managed to get her books published and available on Amazon, Kindle and online through her own website 'Clifftop Publishing'.

Janet told us that the whole enterprise was not for her personal profit, and any profits she made were given to her chosen charities, British Heart and Cancer Relief.

Her publishing was done through a website called Createspace, which provides all the computer facilities to publish your own books and to transfer the book on to discs etc. She then talked about International Standard Book Numbers - every book published has to have an ISBN number.

Janet then outlined other things that a self publisher must do, for example give copies to the various museums and libraries at their own cost. She then covered all other aspects of self publishing including proof reading, copyright and building domains. She was thanked by the whole Club for a fascinating and interesting talk. Our next meeting is on Thursday 20 July - anyone interested in joining or finding out about Probus can call John Whittington on 01263 820333 or john.whitto62@gmail.com - he will be pleased to help you.

North Norfolk Health Volunteers Service Merchants’ Place Volunteering Open Morning

On 7 June, Voluntary Norfolk joined forces with NCI Runton Coastwatch, Cromer RNLI, Age Concern and Wells Maltings Trust for a Volunteering Open Morning at Merchants’ Place, Cromer. We thoroughly enjoyed working alongside these organisations, and speaking to members of the public about volunteering opportunities available. Thank you to everyone who popped in!

As part of Voluntary Norfolk, the North Norfolk Health Volunteers Service also attended with information available on the service and about current befriending opportunities. The NNHVS has been made aware of a number of people across the North Norfolk area who would really appreciate someone who could go along on a reasonably regular basis and spend some time with them - in particular, we would like to appeal for volunteers in or around Cromer, Sheringham, Fakenham, North Walsham and Spixworth amongst other areas.

If you could give an hour or so, regularly or even occasionally, to change someone’s life for the better in North Norfolk, then please get in touch with us! The most popular activity is a simple coffee and chat, but, depending on what you wanted to offer, some people might like a short walk, a game or craft activity, a quick hand with something in the house or garden or even a short trip out in the car. You could visit someone by yourself, or, if you would rather, you’re welcome to enrol with a friend and do your visits together.

You will need to be willing to undergo a DBS police check (which we will arrange at no cost to you) and provide two references, but in return you will get induction training on the basics of befriending, the ongoing support of a co-ordinator and, above all, the immense gratitude of someone who will be so pleased to share a bit of their life with you.

If you are interested in finding out more, or have any questions please contact Beatrice Fox on 01263 519454 or NNVS@voluntarynorfolk.org.uk, alternatively you can arrange to visit for a chat in Merchants’ Place, 16 Church Street, Cromer.
