Sheringham Carnival

Not always the case, but we had lovely warm weather for the crowds to enjoy this year's Carnival - again!

The parade route was packed from start to finish to hail the enthusiastic participants. As is usual, this year's Sheringham Carnival Parade began with the Harley Davidson rideout.

at Southrepps Church.

Logical therefore to have a wedding reception themed Carnival float and they get front cover too!

Amongst the floats at this year's Carnival Parade were Tom and Kayleigh Codling, who got married a few days before the parade

Dear Margaret,

I wonder if you would consider helping me with an appeal to local community for a reward of £500 on the off chance someone may have found some items of value and deep sentimental which I lost in Sheringham on Tuesday 19 June?

On the morning of 19 June I attended Splash to do some classes and before the class I took off my silver and diamond Rolex watch and diamond tennis bracelet and dropped them into my handbag.

After the class I went to a number of shops and a local car wash believing the items were still in my bag. However that evening I discovered they were missing and despite retracing my steps and many friends helping look they have not been found.

After years of IVF treatment these items were gifts for having my daughter and son and are deeply sentimental to me.

I attach a picture of me wearing them a few weeks before at a local Sheringham couple’s wedding.

My children are sad too because they knew the significance of the watch and Rolex.

If they have been found and no one knows what to do with them as the watch is tiny perhaps they can email me sineadmerron@me.com?

Thanks, Sinead Casey

KELLING PROBUS CLUB

Kelling Probus Club held its July meeting at The Dales Hotel when 26 members and guests were welcomed by Chairman Mike Clayton.

After a tasty lunch Mike introduced our speaker John Ingamells, who had served in the diplomatic corps and was giving a talk on 'The Will of The People'.

John's talk was an insight into the statistics surrounding elections and referendums and whether the results of these truly represented the will of the electorate.

He first covered the Brexit referendum and using charts was able to show what truly happened and questioned if the result was truly democratic. He pointed out that although the vote was 52% to 48% in favour of Brexit, was this really the people’s view, as 63% of the electorate either voted remain or did not vote at all. He said that although the turnout was high by electoral standards he felt that the government were misguided in setting out the rules for the referendum and probably a 40% total of the electorate vote was needed to represent the peoples will.

John then covered other statistics both in Europe and in Britain and gave an interesting view of the 19 elections since the war and how it might not be quite the world idea of democracy.

BANK HOLIDAY EXHIBITION AT THORPE MARKET CHURCH

Make sure not to miss an exciting new exhibition and sale of work over the Bank Holiday weekend Friday 24 – Monday 27 August at St Margaret’s Church, Thorpe Market from 11am – 4 pm daily.

Local Artist Rosalie Osborne Gibb will be exhibiting an exciting collection of original artwork, in a variety of styles and media, together with prints, greetings cards, mugs and coasters depicting her artwork on all four days.

Nick Woolston from Arcs & Sparks Welding Services will have for sale a wide range of beautiful handmade products for the home and garden, from small candlesticks to ornamental garden items on 26th and 27th. Nick also offers a bespoke service.

He produced some interesting quotes which we were asked to attribute to politicians in Europe - we were unable to guess who said them.

John then talked about the influence of the press and the media in influencing the vote.

Members were keen to question him and in his vote of thanks Mike Bennett said it was one of the most interesting and challenging talks we have had in recent months.

We meet on the third Thursday in each month for lunch, fellowship and a speaker. If you are interested please contact John Whittington on 01263 820333.

Penny Farthing Planter

Rosalie Gibb Kingfisher

As always, a wide selection of used books will be for sale, as well as teas, coffees and delicious homemade cakes. Entrance is free, there is ample free parking opposite the church. The exhibition has disabled access and is dog friendly.

WHY CHOOSE SILVER SIL VER & W WARD ARD SOLICIT ORS in 201 ? 201 ? SOLICITORS

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

I am Clare Mayell and I own Silver and Ward Solicitors in Sheringham. I am an extremely competent and experienced solicitor. I appreciate that any time of the year can be a difficult 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 offers offers a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT 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 offer the same expertise, if not better. I have and can act for clients across Norfolk 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 201 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. 01263 823465 or email clare@silverandward.co.uk

Major step forward for new ÂŁ10 million Sheringham Leisure Centre A project to build a multi-million pound, state of the art leisure facility in Sheringham has taken a major step forward. The planning application for the Sheringham Leisure Centre has been submitted and will be considered in the coming weeks.

North Norfolk District Council's cabinet agreed ÂŁ10.7m of funding for the new leisure and fitness centre to replace the existing facility, Splash, in December 2017. The centre will include a main 25 metre pool, a 13 metre learner pool with an adjustable depth floor, a bright and colourful splash pad for children, fitness suite and cafĂŠ. There will also be accessible changing rooms, inflatable sessions in the main pool, community

rooms, multi-purpose studios and a spin studio.

The project will ensure the provision of leisure and fitness facilities for local communities and visitors to north Norfolk is secured for the future. Splash will remain open while the new leisure centre is built on a different part of the site. The leisure centre is due to open in late 2020.

The leisure centre supports North Norfolk District Council’s commitment to improving the health and well-being of its residents. Working with partners including Sport England, the Council is seeking to increase participation in sport which will contribute to an improvement in social and cultural benefits. The social and fitness spaces will help put the facility at the heart of the community.

Where are the Children?

Where are the children who came to play, Who ran round the garden on a fine summer’s day. The noise of their laughter, shouts and cheers Filled the garden with sounds good to hear. Round and round the summerhouse they went Playing games to their hearts’ content. They loved the swing with its orange seat ‘Push us higher’ they cried ‘this is great’. Biscuits and drink as they sat down for a rest The grown-ups all smiling, this is the best. So where are the children as they rode on their way Calling ‘paint the swing red next time we pass by’. One far away and two others nearby ‘Do come again soon’ their grandparents cry. Jean Trower

The construction of a new facility will result in significant economic benefits both during and post completion. These include job creation for local

people during the construction period and longer term employment and opportunities for volunteering once the site has opened for business.

Splash at Sheringham was opened in May 1988. A condition survey conducted last year highlighted an urgent need to invest in a new facility to ensure access to leisure services is secured for the future. North Norfolk District Council has appointed Saunders Boston Architects and a full design team to develop the new facility, which is also the subject of a funding bid to Sport England.

NNDC-owned land adjacent to the new facility will be subject to enabling development which will contribute to the funding of the new leisure facility. A community funded skate park is currently situated on the land and will be relocated elsewhere on the site to enable development.

To find out more, log on to www.north-norfolk. gov.uk/projects/sheringham-leisure-centre/, which includes plans, background information and a virtual ‘walk through’ video of the new leisure centre.

HELPING THE DISABLED OVERSEAS

Rotary in Aylsham has recently launched a new initiative with Physionet, an organisation that helps the disabled overseas.

Physionet is an all-volunteer charity collecting redundant physiotherapy and mobility items from around the UK and distributing them in 40ft long containers to developing countries around the world. The organisation has been given the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service.

In the first 10 years of operation the charity sent over 5,400 items of special needs equipment , approximately 5,300 wheelchairs and some 2,500 mobility items to Eastern Europe , African counties , India, Sri Lanka and the Pacific Islands. By weight, some 2,500 tons of equipment was saved from scrap.

Rotary in Aylsham has agreed to identify and collect items locally and elsewhere in North Norfolk. Already, more than 50 items have been dispatched. These are collected regionally and then transported to headquarters in North Yorkshire, where items are cleaned, repaired and renovated as necessary before despatch abroad. Partner organisations at the destinations coordinate transport and distribution so that Physionet does not bear those costs.

1HZ VKRZURRP QRZ RSHQ DW 8QLW 6KHSKHDUGV &ORVH $\OVKDP 15 6= RU RQ OLQH DW ZZZ SHOOSD[ FR XN

We are therefore seeking redundant wheelchairs (even if damaged or broken), walking frames and walkers, crutches and walking sticks and other equipment which may be of use. We appeal to care homes, surgeries and individuals to get in touch with our co-ordinator to arrange collection or to obtain further information – Ian Stevenson at idstevenson@rocketmail.com or telephone 01692 402440.

Covert surveillance helps secure fly-tipping prosecution North Norfolk District Council continues its crackdown on illegal rubbish dumping

North Norfolk District Council has successfully brought another prosecution for fly-tipping, with covert CCTV surveillance helping to secure the convictions.

01263 822838

Darren Pasque, who trades as Tree Matters, based in Holt Road, Gresham, and his nephew Christopher pleaded guilty to the offences at Norwich Magistrates’ Court on 12 July.

NNDC brought the prosecution following a complaint of illegal dumping of green waste on Salthouse Heath. The subsequent installation of cameras at the heath caught the Pasques carrying out the fly-tipping.

Darren Pasque pleaded guilty to two offences of depositing waste on May 23 and June 7. Christopher Pasque pleaded guilty to a charge of being the owner of a vehicle from which waste was deposited between March and June.

In court, Darren Pasque claimed that his customer had led him to believe he was allowed to dump the green waste on the heath, but the Pasques were told during sentencing they had been reckless and foolish by relying on the word of someone comparable to a “bloke down the pub”.

Darren Pasque was fined £400, with a Victim Surcharge of £30 and a contribution to costs of £534.25. Christopher Pasque was fined £130, with a Victim Surcharge of £30 and a contribution to costs of £534.25.

2018

The sun shines brightly, so with this year comes hope. If we all pull together, I’m sure we will cope. Many stores are closing, a ghost town it will be – I look through a shop window, there’s nothing to see! Ah! McDonald’s is open, I could do with a break, can pay for a cup of tea, can’t afford a cake, I could sit here in peace and just meditate. I’m so grateful for the good times I’ve had, the country’s in turmoil, I’m really quite sad, we must help one another whatever our colour. 8

Hundreds of students meet their potential employers

Young people discover the opportunities on their doorstep at inaugural Skills & Careers Festival

A careers event designed to help young people from North Norfolk discover the career opportunities and apprenticeship openings available locally has been hailed a success, with hundreds of students learning about some of the district’s leading businesses.

More than 600 Year 9, 10 and 12 students from seven local schools attended the North Norfolk Skills & Careers Festival at Paston College. They were able to meet representatives from more than 40 employers, training providers and universities. Local businesses at the event included Kinnerton, the Holkham Estate, CT Baker, East Coast Nurseries and Westover Vets.

The aim of the event was to show young people from North Norfolk the wide range of career opportunities available locally. It is part of an effort to help minimise the risk of ambitious young people feeling they have to leave the district to realise their dreams because they are unaware of the wealth of opportunities nearer to home.

The festival, organised by Paston College, City College Norwich and North Norfolk District Council, built on the success of the North-East Norfolk Futures events, which have been held at Paston College in recent years. The new festival follows the recent merger between Paston College and City College, which has allowed the event to expand. Sheringham Independent 493

Older Generation Celebrate Norfolk Day with Ambitious New Arts Commission

Older people from across the county celebrated all things Norfolk on this year’s Norfolk Day, by visiting the stunning nature reserve at Cley, North Norfolk to gather inspiration for an ambitious new commission based on the Norfolk landscape, run by rural arts charity Creative Arts East.

Creative Arts East have been running their unique, flagship programme ‘Our Day Out’ – regular music & dance workshops for older people - for over 2 years, and this is their most ambitious commission to date. They have commissioned acclaimed local artists Chappell to work with the ‘Our Day Out’ participants, to create a movement and sound piece informed by stimuli from their

trip to Cley on Friday 27 July.

This commission champions all things Norfolk – it celebrates the beauty of Norfolk’s coastal landscape, it employs and encourages local arts practitioners to develop their skills in working with vulnerable older people (including those living with dementia and other health conditions), and it enables older residents to share what Norfolk means to them and be inspired creatively by the county in which they live. The found sounds and sights collected from the outing on Norfolk Day will inspire and shape the forthcoming workshops that Glass House Dance and Les Chappell will hold twice-monthly in Dereham, Attleborough, Thetford, Watton, North Walsham and Wells-next-the-Sea.

Exploring North Norfolk to feed Norfolk’s strays

Animal Magic Dog Club explorer walks have proved very popular with our members giving them the opportunity to be guided around some of the best dog walks in North Norfolk while at the same time raising money to help feed the dogs that Norfolk Strays rescue from death row.

So far this year we’ve been able to deliver a staggering 600 kilos of dog food to Norfolk Strays raised by donations from these walks, in addition some members have also donated extra food, treats and bedding which we’ve delivered too. As dog lovers we are delighted to be supporting such a worthwhile cause, without them dogs who remain unclaimed from the dog pound after seven days would be put to sleep.

We seem to be experiencing extremes of weather going from the beast from the east to glorious sunshine with a short spring in between. It’s so important to consider your dog during this hot weather as they can suffer from heatstroke very quickly which can prove fatal. Always try to walk your dog at the cooler times of the morning or evening, never allow them to exercise excessively and carry water with you allowing them frequent small amounts. If your dog is retrieving a toy from the sea or splashing around in the paddling pool, be careful of water intoxication - ingesting too much water is also dangerous. And please, don’t leave your dog in the car.

For anyone interested in joining our explorer walks you can find more information on our website www.animal-magix.co.uk where you can also find details of classes available in our fun packed new term starting w/c 13th August.

Enjoy the good weather and walks with your dog, have a safe and happy summer from all at Animal Magic Dog Club.

Elly Wilson, the Deputy Director at Creative Arts East said “We’ve been championing work and research around arts, health and wellbeing for many years and we’re so pleased that the ‘Our Day Out’ programme has allowed us to break down as many barriers that older

people experience to participation in the arts as possible, and measure the impact this has on people’s lives, including increasing individuals’ wellbeing and decreasing social isolation. This commission is a great opportunity for us to encourage home-grown creativity by both supporting local artists and engaging Norfolk’s older generation in creative activities.”

The special series of workshops will culminate in a celebration of the music and movement they have created with over 100 older people who are part of the programme returning to the Cley Wildlife Centre, sharing their take on Norfolk landscapes on the 31st October.

Anyone wishing to find out more about the project and how to get involved should contact Creative Arts East on 01953 713390.

BeachLife outreach returns to Sheringham in August

Preparations are underway for this year's BeachLife activity outreach on Sheringham's cliff top and beach next month. Bumper crowds are expected, and there is no charge to join in the fun.

BeachLife is a joint venture by the churches in Sheringham, aimed at engaging with local youngsters, as well as holidaymakers, and this will be its seventh summer. It will run from Tuesday August 28 to Friday 31. The event is open to all ages from toddlers up to 17.

Daily activities will start with the “Beach Special” at 10.30am every day except Friday, where all ages come together at the cliff-top marquee on The Leas for music, games, drama and fun, and to introduce the day’s theme, which this year is Mega-Makers. The children and young people then split into age-groups for their “Going Deeper” sessions to explore that day’s theme in more depth before breaking for lunch. On the Friday, the morning starts at 10.30am with the Going Deeper sessions.

The afternoons and evenings will include beach games and sports, giant inflatables, a family picnic, junk modelling, the tide fight with chips, a ‘Sheropoly’ challenge around the town, and swimming at Splash.

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Last time I mentioned some of the cats in care that were not on our waiting list and am now happy to report that Rosy, Max and Mittens have been given clean bills of health and are available for adoption. Mittens did need to have several teeth removed but is already feeling more comfortable. Charley, the other cat mentioned who has skin problems is making good progress and will hopefully also be available for adoption soon.

Two of the kittens mentioned last time have not responded well to socialisation and will now be looking for a new home either on a farm or stables. Before they leave us, they will be vaccinated, chipped and neutered and the new home will be inspected to ensure they have a warm place to sleep and will be fed each day. We also insist they are confined for the first few weeks to ensure they are familiar with their new surroundings and are aware that they will be fed on a regular basis. We know from past experience that once they have settled and have their freedom, they are much happier and they learn to trust their carers and in time will be happy to have contact with them. Two of the other kittens that came in about the same time, also from an outside situation, have responded well to contact with their fosterer and are now very playful and loving. Unlike the previous two these kittens were not aggressive but just very scared when they first arrived.

The Cats Protection Veterinary Department are always looking for ways to ensure that the cats in our care receive the very best treatment and, as well as advising on general matters (flea and worm treatment for instance) they, from time to time, suggest improvements we can make for cats in our care, or who we are helping. One recent suggestion was to offer additional pain relief for cats needing an operation, either routine neutering or for any other operation needing an anaesthetic. As a consequence, we are hoping to introduce a system with all five

vets we use to ensure the cats have pain relief for two days (or more if the vets feel it is necessary) after their operation. The Bridge and Westover have already agreed to administer this on our behalf and both Rosy and Mittens came back with the medication after their operations. Once we have the procedure in place we will Mittens, a very friendly cat discuss with the other three vets who just loves attention and cuddles that we use. This will also be given to any cat that is neutered under the special neutering scheme.

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.

Hedgehog Haven

Pictured is Julia - she came in with a nasty rear right leg injury, in fact there wasn't much left and the bone was jutting out so she was straight away admitted to Westover Vets where it was successfully amputated. With pain relief & antibiotics she is recovering well and on her check-up visit, the vets were pleased how well it had healed in such a short space of time. It's very neat and doesn't stop her moving about quickly!

She would not be safe to be released back into the wild in case she suffered another leg injury that would make her unable to move. So when she's completely recovered she will be in an enclosed area where I will be able to monitor her.

Special thanks go to Julia's finders who generously paid for all her treatment.

Thanks to a Go-Fund-Me page I have purchased two vital pieces of equipment - an incubator & a nebuliser.

I still have abandoned hoglets coming in - it's certainly been my busiest summer to date!

MP DEMANDS END TO ‘HOLIDAY HOMES’ TAX LOOPHOLE AS NORTH NORFOLK LOSES ÂŁ1.8 MILLION Norman Lamb is demanding an end to a loophole which allows homeowners to avoid paying tax on second homes, after new figures revealed that it is costing North Norfolk District Council a staggering ÂŁ1.8 million this year alone. In England, any property that is ‘available to let’ for 140 days or more per year can be registered as a holiday business. Holiday homes with a rateable value of less than ÂŁ12,000 are eligible to receive 100% small

business rate relief, meaning that the owners do not have to pay any tax on the property.

North Norfolk District Council revealed that 1,302 second-home holiday lets are claiming 100% small business rate relief in 2018-19 – at a cost of £1,873,998. The figures were disclosed following a freedom of information request from Norman Lamb MP.

Lamb MP said “It is completely unreasonable that hard-pressed residents in North Norfolk are paying higher council tax bills to fund vital local services, while some owners of second homes that are registered as holiday lets are getting away with paying no tax at all on that property. “This loophole is costing North Norfolk District Council a staggering sum of money which could be spent on social care, children’s services or other essential support.

While many of these properties will be genuine holiday homes, the ease of registering a property as a holiday home and claiming “It is far too easy for second-home owners full business rate to bend the rules under the current system. relief leaves the Cricket system open to abuse This is particularly galling in a low-wage One of life’s more entertaining events, economy like North Norfolk, where it is by second-home Is cricket played on the green. critically important that everyone is making owners who are It’s a way for people to get some fresh air, a fair contribution.

RIP CURRENTS

Rips are strong currents that can quickly take swimmers from the shallows out beyond their depth. Lifeguards will show you where you can avoid rips but if you do get caught in one: stay calm – don’t panic if you can stand, wade don’t swim keep hold of your board or inflatable to help you float raise your hand and shout for help never try to swim directly against the rip or you’ll get exhausted swim parallel to the beach until free of the rip, then make for shore if you see anyone else in trouble, alert the lifeguards or call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard.

TIDES

A beach can seem like a vast playground, but the tide can come in surprisingly quickly. Many lifeboat and lifeguard rescues are to people getting cut off by the rising water. To prevent this happening to you, get local tidal information from the Harbour Master or the Tourist Information Centre. Always keep a look out for the direction of the tide while on the beach. Just be aware ... and if in doubt, move out!

Show us your skeletons!

Fiona Hewitt, Director, Hayes + Storr

If there is one thing we do very well in the UK it is royal pageantry, and the wedding of Prince Harry to Meghan Markle did not disappoint. The event had something to please all the crowds, from ardent royalists to celebrity spotters and those who just like to watch a good parade.

Of course, any royal wedding gives rise to months of allegation and gossip in the tabloid press, and this was no exception. Without even trying to pay attention, it was hard to avoid the embarrassing revelations about Ms Markle’s family members: her difficult relationship with her father; the collusion of her half-sister with paparazzi photographers; her half-brother’s open letter to the Prince warning him against the marriage; and the disappointment of the siblings that they weren’t invited to attend.

But stories of this sort are nothing new, and we don’t have to delve very far into the history of the royals themselves to find some ‘family dysfunctionality’. In the relatively recent past we have seen the abdication of a king in connection with his marriage to an unpopular American divorcee, alleged scandals surrounding Princess Margaret, and of course the divorce of Prince Harry’s own parents and revelations about their unhappy marriage and extra-marital affairs. We are told that Queen Victoria’s children fell out with her as well as with each other, and further back

still, the Prince can claim descent from some who not only disliked their relatives but had them put to death.

In fact, if we are completely honest, which of us doesn’t have the odd skeleton in the family cupboard? Even if family relations currently seem harmonious, a little time spent researching the family tree will often turn up something embarrassing.

issues will soon be forgotten by the tabloids in favour of more up to date scandal. And thankfully, most of us will never suffer public revelations about our own problems. But please remember to tell your solicitor about your skeletons before you put them all back in the cupboard!

When clients come to see us to prepare Wills, they are often very reticent about family problems. Understandably, people are reluctant to disclose details of, for example, squabbling children, ungrateful grandchildren or long-standing rifts with siblings. However, it is very important that we are given all the relevant background information, so we can advise you properly about the distribution of your estate, the possibility of challenges, and what can be done to prevent them.

This article aims to supply general information, but it is not intended to constitute advice. Every effort is made to ensure that the law referred to is correct at the date of publication and to avoid any statement which may mislead. However no duty of care is assumed to any person and no liability is accepted for any omission or inaccuracy. Always seek our specific advice.

A disgruntled relative may be able to make a claim against the estate if they are left out of a Will or receive less than they were expecting. If you tell us who they are and why they are being treated differently, we can minimise the chances of them succeeding. Detailed attendance notes on our files, confirmation of your mental capacity and confidential letters explaining your actions will all help.

If you would like further advice on this matter please contact Fiona on 01328 863231. If you require advice on any other legal matter call 01263 825959 or email law@hayes-storr.com.

Sheringham Town Council surveys show it’s a great place to live

Sheringham Town Council has received a positive response to the surveys, which have been available online and at the two Community Engagement Days held recently at the Community Centre.

Over 500 responses have been received online and visitors to the Community Engagement Days have also completed paper versions.

Headlines from the initial analysis show 90% of respondents with young children think Sheringham is a great place to live. However, the town considers affordable housing for sale and to rent for locals to be an urgent priority.

The survey results also show resounding support for the town’s Community Centre and its retention as a place to help ensure the health and well-being of the community, even if it is not able to make a profit but that the council should endeavour to run it at the least cost and maximise its use.

The surveys are still open online and can be completed via links on the news section of the Sheringham Town Council website.

As part of the Community engagement days a presentation on the Town Centre Development Task group was available and visitors had the opportunity to share their views and the ideas it is investigating were received favourably.

The Sheringham Town Centre Development

Pantaloons at the pinch point on the High Street are also being considered.

Task Group (STCDTG) formed in April includes representatives from a broad section of the community and is a forum focussed on identifying the way forward for Sheringham town centre. Its goal is to develop a vibrant and sustainable town centre operating throughout the year to meet the needs of the Sheringham area, residents, its businesses and visitors alike.

It is currently investigating how to develop a pedestrian friendly zone by:• creating an atmosphere where vehicles do not dominate the space and where pedestrians feel much safer and more relaxed. • developing more green spaces, where, cycling is encouraged and accessibility will be improved for all sections of the community. • creating entrances into the town centre zone and looking at how to introduce lower speed limits and traffic calming. The aim being, to create the effect of entering a zone, where vehicles don’t feel or assume they are the dominant user. • pavement widening and changes to traffic flow outside

All of these measures should increase footfall and encourage repeat custom and give a more pleasant visiting/shopping experience in order to ensure that Sheringham continues to have an economically healthy and vibrant future and continues to be a great place to live and visit.

The results from all the community engagement will be used to help focus the Town Plan and the subsequent Action Plan for the council currently being developed.

North Norfolk District Council hosts its latest exhibition Water-based paintings by local artist go on public display

Local artist Carole Wilshaw is the latest to see her work put on display at North Norfolk District Council’s public art gallery.

Carole Wilshaw

The exhibition is called ‘Mostly Just Animals’ and the work includes pictures from her children’s books – ‘Come Back on Saturday’ and ‘Animal Skip and Jump Rhymes’.

“For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated by illustrations, especially those depicting animal characters,” said Carole, who hopes to use her retirement to spend more time on art and craft hobbies, including writing and illustrating stories for children. At primary school. I remember discovering the storybook character Babar the Elephant. As well as the character, it was the linework and colour that appealed.”

Retaining an interest in education, creative writing and illustration, Carole wrote stories and poems for her own children when they were young.

“Ideas for characters often originate from a conversation, or maybe just a thought for the title of a story, which I then expand and develop into pictures,” she added.

Carole works with Designer’s Gouache, a water-based paint. She also uses colour pencils for outlines and shading, working over areas of 20

the gouache.

She has been a visitor to Norfolk for the past 30 years, and recently moved here following a career that has seen her train in graphic design, and work for a dress-making pattern company and as a designer for the Inverness Museum and Art Gallery.

Stripey and the Mouse from More recently, she has worked ‘Come Back on Saturday’ in further education as a tutor, community development worker and mentor, and has taught calligraphy, illustration and textiles to children, sixth-formers and adults.

The exhibition will run until 7 September at the NNDC offices gallery in Holt Road, Cromer. The 1st Floor Gallery is open to the public 8.30am -5pm on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays; 10am-5pm on Wednesdays; and 8.30am-4.30pm on Fridays.

NNDC seeks to offer free opportunities to local artists to display their work in the well-lit gallery, and in turn provides staff and visitors to the building the opportunity to see a variety of artists’ work. Six exhibitions are held annually.

To find out more about Carole’s work or to buy one of her children’s books, call 07402 959613, email carole@kalligrafik.co.uk, visit https://kalligrafik.co.uk or search for ‘Kalligrafik’ on Facebook. Sheringham Independent 493

Non-surgical face lift available at the Coltishall Cosmetic Clinic

Is it possible to have great results and a face lift without surgery? “If you had asked this question a few years ago- I would have said no. But today, in 2018, I can say yes” says Dr Gheyi, Medical Director at the Coltishall Clinic.

A face lift only tightens loose skin, it does not replace lost volume from the face which is probably the most important component of facial ageing. It will not improve skin texture or tone either. We are increasingly using volumisation of the face in addition to skin tightening which if performed without volume restoration gives a tight but not a natural look. I prefer a natural look for my patients.

We are very impressed by the latest offering in the restylane range Restylane Volyme. “I have not seen anything like it”. He says. It lifts your face in an instant and the results are great. It is being hailed as something of a breakthrough. It is performed under local anaesthesia and takes about 30 minutes. You can then walk away with a rejuvenated natural look and years taken off your face. As it is a deeper filler, there is usually no bruising or redness.

It is an alternative to permanent cheek implants which can be problematic as they sometimes cause infection or move, creating asymmetry in the face. Although fat can be used to transfer into the face and add volume, deep filler is the only method available to achieve a similar result without the need for surgery.

Restylane Volyme is the brand name for an injectable form of hyaluronic acid specially formulated for facial contouring. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar that is found in the connective tissue of our skin and along with collagen forms the building blocks of healthy tissues. As it is totally natural component of our skin, no allergy test is required. Restylane is

KITCHEN FRONTS of Norfolk

the most popular facial filler in the world today and has been used in over 15 million treatments. It has a proven safety record. The result from the treatment is immediate and can last more than a year.

It is different from other fillers which are commonly uses to soften lines and wrinkles. Restylane Volyme is injected in a deeper plane to achieve a lifting and filling effect on cheeks and chin.

Another exciting development is the use of botox to achieve a defined outline of the jaw. The so called ‘Nefertiti lift’. He also uses these for eyebrow lift to correct drooping eyebrows. A combination of these procedures and other non surgical tools is now capable of producing remarkable results without going under the knife. Everyone is not suitable for these procedures and as we each have our unique features and requirements we tailor our treatments and pick and choose best options from our increasing number of non-surgical treatments.

Cromer Crowds enjoy RNLI Lifeboat Day

With plenty of attractions along the Esplanade, visitors to Cromer RNLI Lifeboat Day enjoyed lots to see and hear.

Live music was provided by the Sheringham Shantymen in the main boathouse at the end of the pier before the Annual Lifeboat Service led by the Cawston Band.

Earlier Zingaro Blue performed at the entrance to the pier. With three performances, listeners were treated to music associated with the Cromer Lifeboat History as well as popular songs.

The beautiful weather combined with the crowds of people walking along the promenade meant that all the stall holders did a roaring trade all day. There were many activities to wow the crowds including an afternoon display by both of Cromer RNLI’s lifeboats. The boats were joined by Sheringham RNLI to the delight of the assembled crowds. The mini lifeboat was very popular with younger visitors.

Richard Leeds, Cromer RNLI Operations

Manager said ‘I would like to thank all the many generous people who attended and helped us raise a great deal of money. It is always a popular event and visitors come long distances to have a great day out, support local traders and watch the lifeboat displays’.

Building Excellence award win for North Norfolk District Council

The council took the top prize in the Best Partnership with a Local Authority Building Control Team category – a prestigious category that recognises the work of the council with its customers to deliver successful projects. It reflects a team effort between a private company and the public sector.

Next stop will be the national grand final in London North Norfolk District Council (NNDC) has scooped an award at the 2018 East Anglia Local Authority Building Control (LABC) Building Excellence awards.

NNDC picked up the award at a ceremony held in the impressive surroundings of King's College, Cambridge, and will now see its entry put forward to the Grand Finals, which will be held in London in November.

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. The awards, for which there are 14 categories, are a celebration of excellence in the construction industry and of quality and compliance with building regulations. The East Anglia awards cover Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex.

nother

In this case, NNDC’s partner architect was Stead Mutton Griggs (SMG) Architects from Sheringham. The award was accepted by Ian Mutton of SMG, with Dan Theobald and Stuart Tate of NNDC’s Building Control department. NNDC and SMG have been involved in successful developments in Norfolk and the rest of the country under the LABC Partnership Scheme. Projects where NNDC and SMG have collaborated include Trimingham Village Hall, Paston College and the Lighthouse Community facility in Sheringham, together with many smaller-scale domestic new-build projects, extensions and alterations both locally and countrywide.
