Sheringham church to celebrate 1940s weekend

The annual 1940s weekend in Sheringham gets bigger every September, with many of the town’s churches taking part by providing special events. This year the 1940s - themed weekend will take place throughout Sheringham on September 14 and 15. This originated on the North Norfolk Railway, but many of Sheringham’s shops and businesses will also reflect a wartime theme, and the town will be packed with visitors and locals wearing 1940s outfits.

WHY CHOOSE WHY CHOOSE SILVER & WARD WARD SILVER SOLICITORS in in 2019? 20 19 ? 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 time fo or 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 2019 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

JUBILEE PLAYERS AUTUMN PRODUCTION

‘Out Of Focus’ by Peter Gordon

The Jubilee Players are delighted to announce that they will be treading the boards again in October at the Tithe Barn Horstead.

‘Out of Focus’ is a comedy set in the annexe of a church hall where a series of over bookings have occurred. As a result, a wonderful mix of local characters descend on the hall for a Brownie pack meeting, badminton and table tennis matches, auditions for the pantomime and an illustrated talk on steam locomotives. Confusion reigns until everyone unites for a common cause, the production of the pantomime, which hopes to raise money for the church bells. Over the following weeks of rehearsals, alliances and friendships are formed and tested as the cast battles against the odds and the opening night approaches.

THE PRESENT MOMENT

Events finally culminate backstage after the final performance as the cast celebrate and everyone receives their just desserts.

DISCUSSION GROUP

Come and join us at The Tithe Barn for some Autumn comedy fun!

A newly formed group meeting fortnightly on Monday evenings

NWT is Charity of the Year for North Norfolk District Council

North Norfolk District Council’s Chairman has invited Norfolk Wildlife Trust to be his Charity of the Year, with money raised supporting conservation grazing and family learning.

Conservation grazing with native breed cattle, sheep and ponies protects important areas for wildlife. Without regular grazing, many of our rare and fragile habitats and the species they support would be at risk of being overwhelmed by more dominant plants. NNDC has already shown its own commitment to conservation grazing through the establishment of its Bagot goat herd, 15 of which are on long-term loan to NWT in the Brecks.

Dr Clive Stockton has a personal life-long association with nature and wished to support a charity that specifically works to conserve the NWT’s Sure Start with Nature project fragile habitats of Norfolk introduced children and their carers Dr Clive Stockton and raise awareness of the to the natural world at the very start importance of wildlife. Funds raised by NNDC of their lives. The 2018-19 pilot was run in will be used in two key areas of NWT’s work partnership with Sure Start Children’s Centres across Norfolk: to support conservation grazing in Great Yarmouth, Thetford and Corpusty, and with rare native breeds and to extend engagement included monthly indoor and outdoor naturewith young children in Sure Start centres. focused activities such as interactive sessions, sensory play and guided nature walks. Funds

WELCOME THE WIZARD!

from NNDC would contribute to a continuing the work and, with more funding, establishing a bigger project in Norfolk from next year to help families learn about nature and wildlife together, and embrace the natural world.

The audience gave her thunderous applause, and the evening’s fundraising efforts for the Copeman Centre made a wonderful £147, and our stall for ORBIS, the Flying Eye Hospital, made a further £51.80.

Domestic abuse and the family by Maria Endall, Family Solicitor, Hayes + Storr

Domestic violence, or domestic abuse as it is now known, is a criminal matter. As its name would suggest, it happens within the context of family or between couples, and therefore, affects many of our clients. Sadly though, very few people seek the help and protection that is available to them.

Domestic abuse has been making the headlines over recent years, beginning with the introduction of The Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme, known as ‘Clare’s Law’, named after Clare Wood, a 36 year old mother who was murdered by her ex-boyfriend in 2009. Clare never knew he had a history of violence against women.

The scheme is designed to protect potential victims from an abusive situation before it ends in tragedy, allowing partners, friends and family to ask police for information about someone’s criminal record and whether they pose a potential risk. In 2012, the government’s definition of domestic violence and abuse was amended to include controlling and coercive behaviour. Currently, the new Domestic Abuse Bill which is being considered by parliament, aims to go further by including economic abuse and other forms of manipulative non-physical abuse.

However, greater awareness and support of victims is required. People often don’t reach out for support, for fear of reprisals from the perpetrator, especially if they believe they cannot be adequately protected by the police.

Where they have children, victims may also fear social services becoming involved if they contact the police and worry that their children may be taken away from them. There are many other factors that may prevent victims seeking help, including financial, cultural, psychological or social reasons.

Local organisations offering support for victims include Leeway based in Norwich and Pandora based in King’s Lynn. Recently, Pandora received £85,000 in extra funding from the Norfolk Police and Crime Commissioner in recognition of the important work they do. Pandora currently supports 300 women on a one-to-one basis and around 140 children in the course of a year. Pandora offers a 10-week recovery programme for women who have left abusive partners to help them get their lives back together.

If you are experiencing domestic abuse and have children, you have a duty to protect your children from the abuse; therefore, you may need advice in relation to obtaining an injunction against your partner or ex-partner. You may also find that you require advice in relation to divorce, finances and living or contact arrangements for your children. Any abuse you or your children have suffered may impact on the decisions you make in these areas, and on any court proceedings taken in respect of these issues. As family lawyers, and specifically as members

of Resolution; a national organisation of family lawyers committed to non-confrontational separation, we always look out for the presence of, or risk of domestic abuse being perpetrated against our clients, and we very often see it in cases where it is not the primary reason for the client seeking our advice. However, once we become aware of the circumstances we are able to offer additional legal and practical advice to our clients who may be feeling vulnerable.

Domestic abuse happens to both men and women, to people of all ages and of all backgrounds and occupations, both as to the abused and the abuser.

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.

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

Local Guild to Celebrate Ruby Anniversary

The Norfolk Countryside Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers will be celebrating 40 years of creativity in 2020. To mark the event, the Guild will be holding an exhibition and tea party at Ludham village hall, Ludham Village Hall, Norwich Road NR29 5QQ from 1.30pm – 4.30pm on the afternoon of 28 September. The exhibition will feature all things red, including a magnificent blanket incorporating felted, knitted, woven and hand dyed panels made by Guild members. Textile Artist and Guild member, Ros Wilson, will be giving a talk entitled “A Passion for Red� to fit in with the Ruby-themed celebration. The Guild is part of a National Association founded in 1955 with the aim of helping bring together the community of craft Weavers, Spinners and Dyers. The Association is today the umbrella organisation for 100 local Guilds across the UK, providing education, a quarterly ‘Journal’ and a bi-annual National Exhibition. As a result of this support, ancient textile skills are kept alive and knowledge shared. “In this world of virtual games and smart phones it is important for everyone’s wellbeing to enjoy a hands-on craft,� says Sue Mitchell, Chairman of the Norfolk Countryside Guild. “Our 60 members are always buzzing with ideas and happy to share their skills�.

The Norfolk Countryside Guild meets weekly at a variety of venues across north-east Norfolk. Regular workshops help members to expand their skills. “Workshops are run by very experienced Guild members and visiting tutors to give as much variety as possible�, explains Margaret Fletcher, the Bookings Secretary. “This year we have enjoyed a wide range of workshops, such as eco-dyeing, felting, basket-making and inkle (narrow band) weaving with lots more planned for the rest of the year.�The Norfolk Countryside Guild certainly has much to celebrate.

Surf life-saving in North Norfolk receives further support from Sheringham Shoal Community Fund

Following its support for the North Norfolk Surf Life Saving Club (NN SLSC) in 2017, the Sheringham Shoal Community Fund is continuing to encourage and support the growth of this life saving sport in North Norfolk, making a grant to the recently formed Mundesley Surf Life Saving Club (Mundesley SLSC).

The grant is being used to fund Level 1 and 2 coaching training for a number of the Club's volunteer group leaders, and to purchase some much needed equipment including rescue boards, marker buoys, and beach gazebos for changing.

The impetus for the formation of Club has come from Mundesley resident Julie Coleman, a long-time participant at NN SLSC, who said "I am passionate about encouraging young people to use and enjoy the sea and its beaches as a playground, and surf life saving teaches them how to do so in a safe and responsible manner."

She continued "The support from the local community has been incredible, and we now have 24 regular attendees at our weekly sessions on Mundesley beach. There is also a growing number of children and young people waiting to get involved as soon as there are sufficient trained group leaders available. We hope some of these will be able to take part in the Surf Cadet programme ‘taster sessions' we plan to hold during the school summer holidays. We are so grateful to the Sheringham Shoal Community Fund, because none of this would have been possible without its support."

Karl Butler, the Power Plant Manager of the Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm, said "This project is an excellent fit for the Sheringham Shoal theme around marine safety, and I believe it will provide the young people involved with a valuable set of transferable skills."

North Norfolk District Council hosts Environment Assembly

Action taken following Council’s declaration of a climate emergency North Norfolk District Council hosted an Environment Assembly at the Atrium in North Walsham on Thursday 15 August.

The event comes after North Norfolk District Council was the first council in Norfolk to declare a climate emergency. The declaration was made in April at a meeting of Full Council where councillors committed to recognising the devastating impact of global temperature change and taking immediate action.

Cllr. Sarah Bütikofer, Leader of North Norfolk District Council, said of the decision “As a coastal district, North Norfolk is in the front line of the impacts of climate change whilst our fishing industry depends on sustaining stocks in our marine environment.

“Time is running out and we need to be bold and brave.”

Members of the public were invited to drop-in during the afternoon where elected members and NNDC Officers were on hand to discuss what the Council is looking to do to tackle the climate emergency, local and national environmental concerns and what steps it has already taken

Macmillan Street Collection

The Sheringham Street Collection that took place on Saturday 17 August 2019 promoted by Diane Evans raised the wonderful sum of £789.84 which was a tremendous result.

There were no expenses or payments incurred in running this collection. Thank you to all who donated and collected and to The Little Theatre for allowing us to use their Hub as our base, and to Central Garage for allowing us to park on their premises.

The money raised is ring fenced by Macmillan Cancer Support for use in North Norfolk to help those with cancer and their families.

The District Council is committed to developing and delivering an Environmental Charter with the aim of becoming a leader in meeting high environmental and energy standard.

Cllr. Nigel Lloyd, North Norfolk District Council’s Cabinet Portfolio for the Environment who, together with Cllr, Sarah Bütikofer, hosted the event, said “I would like to thank everyone who took the time to come along to this event. I am hugely encouraged by the number of people who attended and who are clearly passionate about making a difference to our environment. This is a great starting point to help us understand what concerns local people about climate change and to work together to develop an Environmental Charter and demonstrates that we are taking positive action following our declaration of a climate emergency.”

Members of the public will have another opportunity to have their say at the Council’s annual, free, Greenbuild event at Felbrigg Hall on 7 and 8 September.

Cllr. Lloyd added “Greenbuild is a unique event that will be full of high quality advice and information about living a greener lifestyle, with something for all the family to enjoy. We will also be sharing findings from the Environment Assembly and giving members of the public another opportunity to have their say on what matters to them.”

KELLING PROBUS CLUB

Greenbuild 2019 –

North Norfolk District Council to host free event at Felbrigg Hall

The Club held its August Meeting at The Dales Hotel Upper Sheringham. Twenty four members and guests attended and were welcomed by Vice Chair John Whittington who particularly welcomed back several members who had been absent for a month or two due to illness.

Greenbuild, the region’s leading green lifestyle event, and hub for all things sustainable, energy efficient and local, is back on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 September. The annual event is free, family-friendly, and packed with inspiration for making eco-friendly choices.

After a very pleasant lunch and lots of conversation, John welcomed Jackie Reeves from Co-op Estates, whose talk called 'Tax Care and Toy Boys' was an insight in to managing your estate before and after death. Jackie said that one of the biggest drains on a couple’s estate was Care Home costs and detailed the problems that arose. She explained that unless your assets were below £23,500 then after pensions’ income and carers allowance you would have to find the rest out of assets. One interesting fact was that males stood a 1 in 6 chance of going in to care in their lifetime - for females it was 1 in 3. She spoke about passing property on to family early and gifts to family.

This year’s event, sponsored by Inspired Renewables (Gold) and Shell (Silver), marks 15 years of Greenbuild and promises to be one of the biggest ever, as almost 100 exhibitors, including the ever popular craft and farmers’ market, catering area for visitors to enjoy a bite to eat and children’s entertainers, will attend the event in the grounds of the National Trust’s venue Felbrigg Hall, near Cromer.

Importantly, the event is more accessible than ever. North Norfolk District Council has teamed up with North Norfolk Community Transport to provide a free shuttle bus service from Cromer train and bus stations which co-ordinate with the bus and train times. Visit www.north-norfolk.gov.uk/greenbuild for timetables (and lots more!)

She then moved on to Inheritance Tax and all the problems this caused on your death, particularly if your assets were over the various thresholds.

The Council is also looking to build on the great success of the Environment Assembly which was held recently in North Walsham. Those who did not have the opportunity to attend will have the chance to discuss the issues raised at the meeting and share their thoughts and ideas on environmental issues with councillors.

The 'Toy Boy' part of her remarks concerned remarrying after your partner dies and your own family losing their share of the estate, which was not uncommon.

Jackie then talked about pro-active planning and covered family trusts, Probate, protection of family assets and Power of Attorney.

Greenbuild offers something for the whole family. There will be plenty going on to keep children entertained, including theatre shows, face painting, a free children’s quiz with fantastic prizes.

Finally she talked about funeral costs, and funeral plans paid for in advance.

There will be exhibitors of green technologies like Solar PV panels, biomass boilers, ground and air source heat pumps, electric cars and bikes and experts in local and traditional products such as heritage plastering and willow basket making. Attendees can also cast their vote for the People’s Choice Graham Allen design award.

After answering numerous questions she was thanked by Ken Murray for a very interesting and thought provoking talk.

Next month our talk is on 'Pharmacy in the 50s' anyone who would like to attend our Club contact John Whittington on 01263 820333 or visit our website.

Cllr Sarah Bütikofer, Leader of the Council, said “This promises to be another exciting and informative event packed with information on environmental issues while providing entertainment for all the family. I am particularly looking forward to sharing feedback with visitors from our recent environmental assembly.”

Another ever-popular aspect of the event, are the compost vouchers which can be purchased for £3 for 3 bags of compost (subject to availability).

Council staff from Planning and Building Control, Environmental Protection, Public Protection, HR, Economic Development, Coastal, Revenue and Benefits, Waste and Recycling, Civil Contingencies and Sports Development as well as the Countryside team will be ready to chat with visitors and answer any questions they may have and to offer advice.

Cromer Railway Signal Box

SING FOR JOY!

www.teresaverney.co.uk

Community singing groups meet weekly in Sheringham (Tuesday evenings) and East Runton (Thursday mornings). Everyone welcome, no need to read music.

If you've ever wondered how Britain's railways were controlled before the days of computers, the answer is – by mechanical computers.

Every railway signal box was a mechanical computer and controlled its own length of the railway. Very few of these are left today. One which has been out of railway use since 2000, but is still complete, is Cromer signal box. It is the only Midland and Great Northern Railway concrete signal box left, and is run by volunteers under the auspices of the North Norfolk Railway.

Call 07967 866036

SINGING IS GOOD FOR YOU

It is not usually open to the public, but on September 20 and 21 (Friday and Saturday), as part of the national Heritage Open Days movement, the signal box will be open between 10.30am and 3.30pm. There is no parking on the site, which is between the old cemetery and the Argos delivery parking lot on Holt Road, but it's an easy walk from the town centre. Please note that it is not suitable for the disabled as it remains as it was in the 1960s and there are steps and uneven ground.

- you must have either read this or heard someone say so sometime recently, as there is so much evidence to support the statement. And yes it’s really true, it’s good for you, and you, and you, - just in case you thought for a moment that you were excluded from this.

We can all sing, provided we can speak, and for those who think that they can’t, you have been misinformed by a well meaning parent or teacher, probably many years ago. And if this is you, you probably love to sing along in the car or shower to your favourite song when it’s played on the radio.

Singing helps your mood, it helps your breathing, it helps your concentration indeed the list is never ending but the bottom line is that it helps you feel better about yourself, and don’t we all want that.

The whole lever frame and the locking (the computer part) is still in place and can be used by visitors to set up the line for trains – the trains, of course, take no notice as they are controlled from Norwich, and roll past the signal box into Cromer station regardless.

So why not treat yourself, emerge from under your cover of self consciousness, discover that you can sing and make a whole load of new friends in the process. I run weekly singing groups in Sheringham and East Runton, designed just for you. See www.teresaverney.co.uk or ring me on 01263 479931 for a chat.

For full details, go to www.heritageopendays.org.uk/visiting/event/ cromer-signal-box. You will be very welcome to visit and see how it used to be done, as well as do it yourself.

Bothered by Mummy Tummy?

Now you have a safe and effective option to do something about it. Colishall Cosmetic Clinic provides several effective options including a mini-tummy tuck.

what is a mini tummy tuck or mini-abdominoplasty procedure? Mini tummy tuck is a procedure to address stubborn area of stretched, sagging skin and fat on your lower tummy. Pregnancy, aging and genetics are common culprits behind a belly pouch and unfortunately, diet and exercise are often ineffective in helping to get rid of it. If you are bothered by the appearance of your lower abdomen, a mini tummy tuck may help you get the results you want with a relatively short recovery. Mini-tummy tuck reduces sagging skin and fat from lower abdomen improving body contours and silhouette.

KITCHEN FRONTS of Norfolk

How is mini-tummy tuck different from a full tummy tuck? Full tummy tuck is a major operation performed under general anaesthesia. It is suitable for patients after massive weight loss, patients with severe stretch marks all over their abdomen or in patients with significant muscle wall laxity or abdominal hernias. It requires a longer scar, wide undermining [which risks blood supply to the skin] hence liposuction is not carried out during this procedure. There is a scar around the belly button as it has to be moved. It is a major procedure that provides a tighter but not necessary slimmer appearance.

THE KITCHEN REFURBISHMENT SPECIALISTS Replacement doors & drawer fronts Non-standard door sizes our speciality New worktops Made to measure units colour co-ordinated Sinks & Taps replaced

Mini tummy tuck is a good option in patients with skin excess in lower part of their belly. Mini tummy tuck is a less invasive option. This uses a relatively short incision in the same area of a C-section scar and avoids the incision around the belly button. This is often performed on women who have mild sagging or post-baby pouch, stretch marks from pregnancy, or C-section scarring. This procedure focuses only on the area below the belly button, not the entire abdomen.

FOR FREE EXPERT ADVICE CALL:01362 421594

We nearly always add liposuction to our tummy tucks to sculpt the body in 3 dimension. The technique known also as mini lipo-abdominoplasty with no undermining, makes it possible to safely combine liposculpture of the abdomen with lower abdomen skin tightening. Unlike traditional tummy tucks, this operation allows for more contouring of the abdomen. It gives a result that is both tight and shapely.

www.kitchenfrontsofnorfolk.co.uk All work guaranteed

am i a good candidate for a mini tummy tuck? A mini tummy tuck may be a great option if you are healthy and at a stable weight, without a large excess of abdominal skin. Typically, the best candidates are primarily concerned about loose skin or a protruding lower belly only—if you have significant stretched, sagging skin or muscles, a full tummy tuck may achieve better results.

Mini tummy tuck surgery is not a substitute for weight loss or a healthy exercise program. Although the results are lasting, the outcome can be influenced by changes in your weight following surgery. If you are planning substantial weight loss or if you are considering future pregnancy, you may be advised to postpone mini tummy tuck surgery.

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Lena the lovely kitten pictured last time, has now been chosen, together with Bassanio, a lovely long-haired grey boy. Irrespective of colour, all our cats and kittens are re-homed for an Adoption Fee of £50, after being given a clean bill of health by our vets, vaccinated, micro chipped, treated for fleas and worms, 4 weeks free Pet Insurance and with neutering paid for, if applicable. To us, colour is not important, although temperament certainly is. The two long term residents who have now been re-homed have gone to stables as they do not appreciate too much contact with people but still need to be cared for. We know they will have a lovely home as they will be joining another cat with a similar nature that we re-homed over 15 years ago.

Last time I mentioned my own cat Mylee’s health problem and advised I would continue her story. We decided to follow our vets’ advice and start the new treatment. Initially this involved x-rays to establish whether there were any roots remaining in her gums and the need to remove any that were found. She also had a biopsy taken to confirm that the treatment was appropriate and while she was under the anaesthetic, some of the new treatment was injected into the lesions in her mouth. All went well until the end of the treatment when she arrested and had to be given CPR. She was then put on a drip and had to stay at the vets until later that day to make sure she had fully recovered. She was given pain relief and we then had to wait for confirmation before continuing treatment. Once this was received she started having injections of Interferon, plus pain relief. The treatment was given for 5 days in a row, then twice a week for two weeks and after that once a week. As her mouth was still quite sore she was now receiving pain relief on a daily basis. However, as she then started to lose her coat at the site of the injections we had to look at other ways of giving her the treatment. More of this next time.

At present all our calls (apart from those for neutering) are answered by Stephanie on the number shown below. Other branches already adopt a

different approach to phone calls and, as this is a very demanding role, we are now looking at the ways they deal with them to see what the best option would be for our branch. Most appear to have options, Malcolm, another one of our older kittens once the call is taken, to press different buttons depending on the enquiry and, if we adopt this approach, it would take the pressure off one person. Obviously, we would need people to be able to deal with calls from the different options so if you feel this is one way you could help the branch, please given Stephanie a call or complete the contact form on our website..

If you are interested in receiving help to neuter your cat/kitten, please ring 07880 256948 (to see if you are eligible for a voucher). This number is for vouchers only and will not be able to help with any other enquiries. The number also applies for those wishing to take advantage of our special neutering campaign.

If you are looking for a cat or kitten (or have any other queries) please give Stephanie a call on 01692 535858. Alternatively, you can visit www.northwalsham.cats.org.uk/ for a description and photographs of the cats before giving us a call on the above number to find out where any particular cat is being fostered.

New E-Service giving free access to digital newspapers and magazines launches in Norfolk Libraries

A new service giving Norfolk library members access to digital copies of magazines and newspapers from the UK and around the world is now available and it’s all completely free.

PressReader provides access to full digital editions of nearly all major national UK newspapers, as well as a wide range of top UK magazines covering a broad range of subjects from travel and food, to politics and fashion. Digital copies of major newspapers and magazines from around the world can be accessed in their original language, and can be translated into different languages, so people whose first language is not English can read content in their native tongue. It also has the facility to enlarge and read text aloud, making it accessible to people with visual impairments.

With e-book borrowing from Norfolk’s libraries increasing year on year, this new service will give people an even wider variety of electronic

nother

reading choices. 160,000 e-books were borrowed in 2018 compared with 110,000 in 2015, an increase of more than 45%.

Councillor Margaret Dewsbury, Cabinet Member for Communities, said: “PressReader is a fantastic new digital service bringing a much wider choice of magazines and newspapers for our library members. E-reading is becoming increasingly popular and it means that people can now access magazines and newspapers direct from their own home, all for free. Everyone can make use of this, so long as you’re a signed up library member, whether you’re studying a foreign language, trying out a new hobby, looking to keep up with news, or read your favourite magazine, PressReader is a great tool.” There are still printed newspapers and magazines on offer at libraries, for those who prefer physical copies. Alan Cash, a Norfolk Library member recently

Removals & Storage Local & National

FULL PACKAGING SERVICE AVAILABLE PIANO & ART SPECIALISTS

downloaded the PressReader app on his tablet: “I have been impressed by the huge range of publications available for free. The setup process with my library card was straightforward and the app is easy to navigate. A real bonus has been the wide range of publications available from around the world which is excellent for anyone like me who is currently learning a foreign language. I have sent the details round to my teacher and the rest of the group as it’s a lot more engaging than reading dialogues from a text book. There’s also a handy translate option built into the app if you get stuck and a ‘listen’ function so you can hear the pronunciation.”

Anyone with a Norfolk Libraries account can access PressReader content from anywhere at any time, either via a web browser, or using the free Android or iOS app. Customers can access as many titles as they wish and download them to read offline.

‘Make more mates and meet more often’ urges North Walsham based friendly society

A north Norfolk friendship group is hosting a special get-together to encourage people to make new friends after it was revealed that almost half of adults with significant friends (48%) only get together with them less than once a month.

The independent research, conducted by YouGov on behalf of the Oddfellows, also shows that a fifth (20%) of GB adults, aged 55 and over, go for at least six months without being socially active. That includes attending things like social events, going to church, or simply grabbing a coffee with a friend.

By contrast, 83% of the Oddfellows’ own members say they spend time with a significant friend once a month or more, with 50% saying they see their good mates at least once a week.

With friendship a hugely important factor for both health and happiness, the Oddfellows Trafalgar Branch in North Walsham is encouraging residents to join them for a special coffee morning on Saturday 14 September from 9.30am until 12 noon, at the St Nicholas Rooms, North Walsham, organised as part of Friendship Month – which runs for the whole of September.

Angie Batson, Develoment Officer for Trafalgar, North Walsham, Oddfellows, said “Many studies have proved how regular company is essential to living a happier life. In fact, some would say that spending

www.rosevillapublications.co.uk

time with friends is as important as eating healthily or exercising. Friends aren’t just there to socialise with, they provide support and comfort in times of need. Most of us make our friends through work, family or education. As we age and our life changes, we have less access to these everyday social opportunities, which can contribute towards social isolation in a huge way.”

This September marks the 10th anniversary of Friendship Month, the annual awareness campaign run by the Oddfellows to celebrate the power of friendship, highlight the need to keep social as we age, and to signpost people to ways they can stay connected to their communities.

Angie continued “The Oddfellows is here to offer friendship and support all year round, but every September, as part of Friendship Month, we put on lots of exciting events which are perfect for first introductions. If someone is unsure about what to expect, please contact us so we can put you at ease. If we know someone new is coming on their own, we’ll always ensure there’s someone for them to ‘buddy up’ with until they find their feet.

To speak with someone ahead of trying out an event, or to receive Trafalgar Branch Oddfellows’ latest events diary, contact Angie Batson on angela.batson@oddfellows.co.uk or call 01692 407852 and leave a message.

Hedgehog Haven

Pictured is a hedgehog self-anointing. It salivates copiously and when it has a frothy mass of saliva on its tongue, it twists its body and throws its head over its shoulder to be able to flick the froth onto its spines. Sometimes it will lift one foot off the ground and lean so far over that it falls over! It sometimes happens when a hog is moved into a different hut.

I currently have two sets of mothers with hoglets. The latest one came in on Bank Holiday Monday. Huts and sheds were being dismantled when a nest with mother and four babies was discovered. Thankfully the people who found the nest did all the right things by wearing gardening gloves and picking the whole nest up, placing them in a large box and getting them to me to lift straight into an outside hut.

It's always a worry when a nest is disturbed as mother is highly likely to reject the babies and hand rearing is never easy especially if the hoglets eyes are not open. I am having to keep a close watch on them.

First Norfolk outdoor eco-gym supported by Sheringham Shoal grant

With the assistance of a grant from the Sheringham Shoal Community Fund, Norfolk's first outdoor eco-gym has opened in the Memorial Park in North Walsham.

With the support of North Walsham Town Council, it has been developed by the charity North Walsham Play, and is situated adjacent to the Memorial Park children's play area which was also developed by North Walsham Play in 2018.

The eco-gym features 13 pieces of equipment of which four exercise machines enable users to generate electricity to recharge their mobile devices through their pedalling.

Matthew Smith, the founder and a Trustee of North Walsham Play, is delighted with the eco-gym, saying "The exercise machines work just like a UK plug socket, so two to three

hours of pedalling or pulling across any of the four items of equipment should be sufficient to fully charge a mobile phone."

He continued "The installation also features battery storage, so any surplus electricity generated by those using the eco-gym will be stored and used to help reduce the cost of the Memorial Park's overall electricity consumption.

He said "Over the last nine years the Sheringham Shoal Community Fund has awarded nearly ÂŁ900,000 in grants to the North Norfolk community, and this combined exercise and renewable energy installation is one of the most innovative projects to receive a grant.

"In the coming months, North Walsham Play will publish the statistics relating to electricity generation by the exercise machines, and I think that will be very interesting data."

"I understand there are plans to develop free outdoor exercise classes, and as a longtime resident of North Walsham, I believe the town's residents will make excellent use of this facility."

Mal Wesby from the Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm joined North Walsham Mayor, Councillor Garry Bull, to formally open the eco-gym on Saturday 10 August.

A perfect day for this family event, well, apart from a totally unexpected sudden rain shower early afternoon! The sun did come out again however. Just over 100 walkers registered to do this walk all ages. The ages of one three generation family ranged from 7 to 76. Everyone said they really enjoyed the route and lovely scenery. Well done to all who took part and it was great to see so many smiling faces at the finish.

Some walkers chose to get Derek Peel and on sponsorship for their favoured charity/organisation which meant Sheringham Carnival was able to facilitate the total donation to charities/organisations amount of £1589 – this is likely to increase as The Salvation Army and Sheringham Under 7s Football have not finalised their figures as yet.

Charities benefitting are MacMillan £100, Harmony Choir £140, Dementia UK £40, Better Life for Ben
