Trustees required, supporting older people in Norfolk

Fairtrade Stalls

We were busy with Fairtrade Stalls in the weeks before Christmas and we arere delighted to see that your support for Fairtrade keeps on growing .We had stalls in Sheringham, Gresham Cromer and Overstrand.

Growers who are producing for Fairtrade, of course, regularly receive a fair price for their crop, and a premium to be spent improving their community. But the Fairtrade charity, Traidcraft Exchange, also helps thousands of farmers like Joseph Kaviti, in Kenya,where climate change has led to devastating drought after drought, which has ruined crop after crop.

With the help of drought-resistant seeds and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;know-howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; from Traidcaft, Joseph is now able to feed his family and send them to school again, and son, Emmanual's goal of becoming an accountant, is now possible.

We have been able to send ÂŁ750 from sales and ÂŁ40 from the collection after a Carol Concert arranged by Kaleidoscope at The Lighthouse.

A very big thank you to everyone who helped with this.

If you would like to help Fairtrade regularly or occasionally, please ring me on 01263 823134.

Christian Aid Carol Singing

Christian Aid's Christmas carol singing on 10 December at the clock in Sheringham raised the sum of ÂŁ213.36 towards their two year Ethiopian project.

Many thanks to all who contributed.

Age UK Norfolk is entering unchartered waters and challenging times, as their services supporting older people become increasingly more in demand. The Norfolk charity is seeking Trustees who are experts in their field - strategic planers and landscape changers who can help drive the organisation forward.

Age UK Norfolkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chair of Trustees, Helen Jones, may be in her 60s, but she shows no signs of slowing down. Passionate about older peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights, Helen jumped at the chance to be a Trustee for Age UK Norfolk when a vacancy arose.

Helen has had a successful corporate career as the Director of Governance and Company Secretary. She currently works as a management consultant.

Helen enjoys giving something back, lending her business skills to assist the development of the charity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is great satisfaction in what we achieve. Trustees provide insight, decision making and guidance on the direction of the charityâ&#x20AC;?.

This year, three years after joining the Board of Trustees, Helen was elected Chair of Trustees.

Helen says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Age UK Norfolk is often the first port of call for so many older people and their families, who otherwise wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who to turn to. I would absolutely recommend volunteering for Age UK Norfolk, there is a real need for the services we provideâ&#x20AC;?.

Age UK Norfolk is recruiting Trustees with skills in areas such as accountancy, health and social care, commissioning and service development, social policy and fundraising. Contact Paula Skelton on 01603 785 235 or email paula.skelton@ageuknorfolk.org.uk for more information.

A community theatre has shone the spotlight on success both on the stage and on the balance sheet.

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 Christmas can be a difffficult time for many people or resolutions are made to resolve 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.

A Music Marathon

On Saturday 21 January, there will be music of all kinds taking place in the Parish Hall in Cromer from 9am until 5pm.

The event is an eight hour sponsored music bash and we hope that the public will come along and support it. The musicians need an audience, so come and enjoy their music, the choirs, the singing and the homemade refreshments which will be served all day.

This fund raising idea is to raise funds for the mini bus at the Canaan Christian Centre which is costing £2,000 a year and is needed for their events and for the many local groups who use it as well.

Breaking with tradition

Aylsham’s Burns Night Supper to offer a female perspective

With Christmas and New Year celebrations over, there’s the age-old cry “what are we going to do now?”.

In Aylsham, one easy answer is to go to the annual Burns Night Supper, organised by Slow Food Aylsham and Cittaslow Aylsham.

Scheduled for Saturday 28 January, 7.30pm for 8pm, and as usual in the Town Hall, the Supper will feature a traditional menu of Haggis, Neeps and Tatties, followed by that delicious Scottish dessert, Cranachan. For non-Haggis lovers there will be the option of homemade Cottage Pie, including versions for vegetarian palates, also made with gluten-free ingredients.

One thing that will break with tradition is the time-honoured “Address to the Haggis”. This is more usually spoken by a man but in the interests of equality, 2017 will see it presented by the lovely Grizelda Tyler who has been busy practising the centuries old Scottish dialect!

Scottish music will feature throughout the evening with, of course, a ‘wee dram’ to toast the Haggis.

There will be a bar, and tea and coffee will be served after the meal.

8

Tickets for the Burns Night Supper cost just £15 and are available from Barnwells Newsagents in the Market Place, Carousel Chocolates in Red Lion Street and the Town Council offices above the Town Hall. You can also book by phoning 07519 361812.

Pot Roast Pheasant with Cider and Bacon your face and some warmth to your cockles!

Stay wrapped up nice and snug and we’ll see you for dinner from January 21st.

A happy New Year from all of us at the Grove.

After a busy Christmas period we are closed for a few weeks for a lick of paint and some renovation work. At the time of writing there is a large trench spanning the south lawn in preparation for new electricity cable, and the kitchen staff have been doing the spade-work while the restaurant is closed. They will come back in to a newly decorated kitchen though, so hopefully that will some reward!

Whilst the weather is still cold this pheasant dish is just the thing to bring a smile back to

Re-gifting to Leeway

Following the success of last year’s appeal, The Strands charity shop, Church Street, Cromer is once again collecting toiletries to donate to Leeway, the Norfolk Women’s Refuge.

This will help to provide basic essentials for vulnerable women and children, many of whom have had to leave their homes in a hurry and in dangerous circumstances.

Gift sets you may have received for Christmas, which were not to your 12

taste, can now be re-gifted to this very good cause.

Last year, local people were very generous in their support for this project and we know that the toiletries were really appreciated by the women who received them.

Strands will be collecting the items throughout January and February and would be glad of anything you feel able to contribute. Other items, such as toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant and sanitary products, would also be welcomed.

Thank you

There are different routes to qualification. It takes 3 years to train as a solicitor, once you are a law graduate, and 4 years if you have a degree in another subject. If you have studied a non-law degree it is important that it is an academic one to show the ability to think analytically. There are no set ‘A’ levels needed to study law at University and no preference for Maths, Languages, sciences, or humanities. Academic ‘A’ levels are necessary. You should study what you enjoy and are good at.

After a law degree, the aspiring-solicitor takes the 1-year full-time Legal Practice Course (“LPC”), followed by a 2-year on-the-job Training Contract with a law firm. With a non-law degree, a 1-year legal conversion course must be taken before the LPC. Part-time options are available but, of course, take longer. There are other longer routes, without a degree, which enable you to become a solicitor; this is far from a soft-option and is becoming more popular with the rising cost of a degree. Not all lawyers are solicitors.

There are 130,000 solicitors and 15,000 barristers, for whom the qualification route is the same as far as the LPC. To become a barrister this is followed by an academic training course (‘BPTC’) and practical training (a ‘Pupillage’).

Dear Margaret, Dogs Mess!

This problem STILL needs sorting out. Which dog owners are still not clearing up behind their pets?

Today, just after Christmas, my daughter and I walked from town to Childs Way, and counted 21 bouts of dog poo, some of which had been trodden in! So that's mainly on Holway Road.

What ever can we do as a town to stop this? We love animals, and most dogs too, but enough is enough.

Sheringham and Cromer Lions Club Happy New Year from all of us to everyone.

In early December, the Lions Club at Taverham invited us to join them in raising £10,000 towards the creation of a Parents Rest area and a Sensory Zone for the patients of the Jenny Lind Ward at the Norfolk and Norwich Hospital.

On 16 December some of our fitter, or more determined members, did a Pub Dash around Holt, Sheringham, West and East Runton and Cromer, raising a very generous amount of £495.09 for this cause.

On the next day, we did a street collection in Sheringham, raising £207.98.

This means that we are able to contribute £703.07 to Taverham's appeal.

We would like to thank all the visitors and residents for helping us to raise this sum of money. Well done everyone!

Our plans for the Motorcycle Show are progressing and we will tell you more as exhibitors and stalls are confirmed.

‘When Britannia Ruled the Airwaves – Celebration of the Sixties’

North Norfolk District Council will host a 1960s Revival Festival on Cromer Pier From The Beatles through to Thunderbirds, from mini-skirts to mopeds – if you remember the 1960s then come and celebrate in Cromer this year.

The 60s festival will be held on Cromer Pier and along the promenade on St George’s Day - 23 April to mark the decade when Britain was truly leading the way in music, fashion and the arts.

The community event will be hosted on Cromer Pier and Promenade on St George’s Day and feature a display of memorabilia, music and fashion.

With a mixture of stalls, displays, exhibitions and music the festival promises to be one which will grab people’s imagination and showcase all that is still Great about Britain.

Cllr Maggie Prior, Cabinet Member for Culture, Leisure, Health and Wellbeing, at North Norfolk District Council said “Our hope is that this community event will be popular and become a regular highlight in the North Norfolk festival calendar. The 1960s showcased all that this country is great at – and what better day to hold it than St George’s Day!” Cllr Nigel Pearce, Ward Member for Suffield Park, Cromer who has championed and promoted the 60s festival for Cromer, said “The 1960s is the decade when Britain led the world in music and fashion; it was a decade of mods,

rockers and the mini-skirt.

“The Beatles became the global musical force and they still are very relevant and powerful today helping to influence music and social attitudes; they went outside of music and helped to shape today’s society in ways we may not still understand. The 1960s caught the world’s imagination and put Britain at the top, my hope is that this festival does the same for Cromer.”

“All of today’s popular culture owes a debt of gratitude to these pioneers from the 60s era and the hope is that the festival captures just a part of that energy and enthusiasm.”

We want people to join in the day, bringing in their memorabilia – clothes, photographs, and stories with everything related to that magical decade.

This event promises to capture the sights and sounds of the sixties with music on the day provided in the Theatre and by Rock the Lobster, a charitable group for promoting unseen and unheard musical talent. They will be playing songs from the 60s at the entrance to the Pier.

The event will feature: • A collection of photographs and memorabilia in the Theatre and the bar at the end of the Pier • Public memorabilia and their stories in Tides Restaurant at the front of the Pier • A music and video tribute to the 1960s in the Theatre • A display of Gerry Anderson memorabilia

featuring Stingray, Thunderbirds, Supercar, Fireball XL 5, Captain Scarlet and more • A display of Beatles’ memorabilia including records, CDs, DVDs, books and more • Mopeds, scooters and motorbikes on the Pier • BBC Radio Norfolk’s Wally Webb complete with Lambretta and Parka coat

Organisers are looking for people to share their memories of Cromer from the 1960s and if you have photographs and stories that you would like to put into the exhibition please contact Cllr Pearce on 07733056067. There will be a video diary on the day for people to share their stories of the sixties.

Cllr Pearce added “If any vintage clothing shops or 60s fashion inspired labels would like to take part by organising a 60s inspired fashion show on the Pier we’d love to hear from them. We also hope that the public will take part by dressing up for the day in 60s gear so that the whole area can celebrate the era when "Britannia ruled the waves"

Rory Holburn, Director of Openwide, which currently manages the Pier for the Council, said "Openwide are delighted to be working with North Norfolk District Council to continue to grow Cromer Pier’s events calendar attracting new and diverse visitors to the region and adding yet more appeal for local residents to delight in.

“From a Pier that used to offer only a short summer season Cromer now has an all year round attraction bringing life and vibrancy to the local economy. This new 60s event has the potential to grow into another full weekend in the North Norfolk diary”.

The scheme off Blowlands Lane, developed by Broadland Housing Association in partnership with North Norfolk District Council, offers the chance for families to continue to live in their local communities.

As well as providing the land, the Council provided ÂŁ528,000 of grant funding to enable the land to be developed on the former Council Depot site.

The development offers two, three and four bedroom homes for families currently on the Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s housing waiting list â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Your Choice Your Home.

Tom FitzPatrick, Leader of North Norfolk District Council, and Jenny Manser, Chair of Broadland Housing

Families with a connection to Upper Sheringham or the adjoining parishes of Beeston Regis, East Beckham, West Beckham, Bodham and Weybourne have been offered the opportunity to move into the homes.

Michael Newey, Group Chief Executive of Broadland Housing, said â&#x20AC;&#x153;As we mark the 50th Anniversary of the first broadcast of Cathy Come Home, the challenge of providing affordable homes for rent has never been so great.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are delighted that in partnership with North Norfolk District Council we have been able to build eight new homes for local families.

The challenge of building rural homes is considerable and working with the Officers and Members of the Council, we have a shared ambition to build many more homes over the next few years.â&#x20AC;?

Cllr Tom FitzPatrick, Leader of North Norfolk District Council, said â&#x20AC;&#x153;House prices are continuing to rise in North Norfolk and that is placing a lot of pressure on families and residents who are simply unable to afford to buy their own home in their neighbourhood. Providing affordable homes is a key priority for the council.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This joint scheme with Broadland Housing shows what is possible by working together for the benefit of the community and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an added bonus that people will be able to move in before the festive season.â&#x20AC;?

North Norfolk Photographic Society welcomed Sarah Kelman to judge their Print Competition on 7 December.

Sarah had not visited the club before and was given a warm welcome and a difficult job to do!

Sarah comes from Cambridge and is an Associate of the Judge, Sarah Royal Photographic Society (ARPS) and an extraordinarily Kelman ARPS capable judge. She was able to talk in detail about each of the submitted entry pictures after giving them what seemed to be just a short glance.

Diabetes UK North Norfolk Group

Through the North Norfolk Group's fundraising activities last year we are again able to offer a limited number of FREE support holidays, organised by Diabetes UK, during the summer of 2017.

These will be available for children and young people with diabetes between the ages of 7-10 and 11-17 who live in Norfolk.

The holidays are invaluable for the youngsters, allowing them to gain skills and confidence to help them deal with their diabetes among others of the same age. Some go on holiday having never met anyone else with diabetes before. So, to be able to leave thinking “I’m not different from anyone else” has to make it all worthwhile.

If your child is at all interested, please encourage him/her to contact Jackie or David on 01692 405492 or email diabetes.uk@hotmail.co.uk All contacts will be acknowledged on a first come first served basis.

Whilst we are prepared to fund the holiday, you would be expected to organise travel and provide pocket money.

Details of the holidays for 2017 will be available from us early in the New Year.

Pamela joins the team at Henleys Henleys Estate & Letting Agents in Cromer have had a flying start since opening their new office in West St Cromer back in July. Director Ryan Ratcliffe comments: “We focus heavily on customer service, going the extra mile has paid massive dividends for our buyers and sellers alike, that’s why people like to deal with us.”

Fellow director Jeff Cox goes on to say “When selling or letting your property, you need to know that you are putting faith in the hands of an agent who knows the area like the back of their hands and offers great value for money and that is where we excel.”

Henleys are expanding their staff by welcoming highly-experienced Pamela Jonas into their sales and lettings department. Pamela has been in the industry all her working life in the Cromer area and brings a huge amount of experience with her. “Pamela is an automatic choice for us and she will be a great asset. Her in-depth knowledge of sales and lettings in the area is invaluable and we really look forward to working with her” says Ryan. For all your selling and lettings requirements call Henleys on 01263-511111.

HOLT 710088

FRIENDLY & RELIABLE - LOCAL & LONG DISTANCE

Sheringham South News Christmas over, now we have the New Year to tackle.

Sheringham South is fairly well off where problems are concerned.

We have the occasional bus problem (or lack of), and misuse of Holway Road by speeders which PC Ian Smith is looking at.

Primary School traffic is still a nightmare but to date County Highways will not move. We have to keep nibbling at them for a change in road structure and direction.

Now we have a good idea of what is happening with ‘Shannocks’, a problem for the whole of Sheringham.

I heard remarks of o’ver development’, loss of car parking, too high, too much mass etc. We must not forget that this is the first attempt to find something reasonable to put in place and is the means with which to initiate the Compulsory Purchase Order with central Government.

Compromise is everything and it is no good dismissing plans out of hand. We could end up looking at the same wreck in five years time keep an open mind. Look at what has happened to North Lodge Park in Cromer - refused planning permission so it will now sit there unwanted and unloved until the ‘Friends’ of the Park can think of something. Don't hold your breath!

Meanwhile, Sheringham has that particular buzz which we all enjoy, let's look forward to a great Summer!

Next surgery date is 12noon to 1pm on Friday 20 January at Sheringham Community Centre.

Cromer, Sheringham and District Inner Wheel Club

The Club held its annual Christmas Lunch in December at the Virginia Court Hotel.

It was an excellent meal and afterwards we were entertained by pupils from Cromer Academy who sang Christmas carols and songs to us.

At our previous meeting our speaker was Julie Alford from the Holt Youth Project which is our President’s Charity for the year 2016 – 2017.

She gave us a very informative talk on the Project. It started in a shed in a field some years ago and has now become a proper care centre to help youngsters providing facilities for many children who are young carers.

At our meeting in November, our speaker was John Bailey, an author of many fishing books, TV presenter and fishing guide. His subject was ‘Adventures with a Fishing Rod’ and he was very entertaining with tales of his fishing exploits in Nepal, Mongolia, India and Russia.

The Inner Wheel Club meets monthly for a meal, fun and friendship and all women are welcome to join us. One of our objectives is to raise money for local, national and international RANDALLS ELECTRICAL charities throughout Shop at 7 Church Street, Cromer the year.

LET US HELP YOU REALISE A NEW YOU IN THE NEW YEAR. ANTI-AGEING TIPS FROM COLTISHALL CLINIC

Coltishall Clinic has had another great year and we thank all our patients for making us successful. As we move into our 11th year of practising anti-ageing medicine I thought I would share some of my tips with your readers. Recently I attended the annual conference of American Academy of Anti-Ageing Medicine. There are lots of cutting edge treatments available now and it really is an exciting time to be an antiageing doctor and also a patient of all that we have available today. My focus is always to research the available treatments and critically appraise these to introduce treatments that work and avoid those that do not.

There are anti-ageing treatments such as IV nutrition, variety of supplements, health foods and even hormones and drugs. A lot of these treatments are as yet unproven and controversial. Unless we know full facts about these we will stay clear.

I can however safely make following non-controversial recommendations for a healthy life. Remember that these are general recommendations and not specific medical advice as we are all unique and not everything would be suitable for everyone!

1] Drink plenty of water and avoid dehydration.

2] Have a predominantly plant based diet and avoid red meatsespecially meats cooked on high heat and charred or blackened meats.

3] Get your vitamins and minerals from fruits and vegetables such as berries, pomegranate and green tea. Vitamin supplements can help but avoid large doses, as these can be harmful.

4] Exercise. We are designed to move. Regular exercise has numerous health benefits. You do not have to run a marathon. Regular walking can be enough.

5] Sleep- 7-9 hours a night depending upon your age. Sleep deprivation can cause ill health. Our brain and body grow and repair tissues

during sleep and without growth and repair we age quicker.

6] Love your family and friends. People in healthy happy relationships live longer.

7] What about supplements? There are only 2 that are completely non-controversial a] Fish oils EPA and DHA supplements, and

b] Probiotics - there is a big connection between a healthy gut and other important organs and recent studies have shown connection between leaky gut and altered gut flora [healthy bowel bacteria] and risk of diseases such as dementia.

8] Maintain a healthy weight. Obesity is a major health hazard. Caloric restriction is a proven method of life extension. Warning - please do not starve yourself.

These tips are not new and most of us know these facts. We all have to make a start somewhere and it is never too late to start. Most of the above can be achieved without any help but losing weight or getting back in shape may need some help. Diet and exercise alone can work, but if not we can offer you our treatments.

We offer medically supervised weight loss programme. Now pronokal system are offering 20% discount on your first order.

We also offer radiofrequency and ultrasound waves to melt the fat from the outside in and also laser liposuction under local anaesthesia If you cannot shift localised deposits of fat around your midsection, love handles, chest, thighs or any other body areas?

Give us a call on 0800 0430737 or log on to the website www.coltishallclinic.co.uk for more information. You can also find us on facebook and twitter @antiagedoc.

North Norfolk Railway Awarded Highly Commended Certificate at National Railway Heritage Awards

North Norfolk Railway attended the National Railway Heritage Awards (NRHA) held in London on 7 December.

The railway, which recently received the Best Large attraction award in the EDP Tourism awards, was also entered in the NRHA awards for the new building at Sheringham. This facility houses the Tourist Information office for Sheringham, a new railway shop and new public and station toilets.

The NRHA awards are a national annual event, which involves consideration of many aspects of railway operations and related heritage projects. The particular category relating to the Sheringham project was the Operational Enhancement award, which involved major rail operators such as Virgin Trains and East Midlands Trains.

Christmas Clean-up

Members of the Sheringham Loke RiverCare Group were out and about over Beeston Back Common and Top Common last month for the last stream clean of the year.

As usual, there were the empty ‘festive’ wine bottles and drink cans, some not so decorative flower pots and a pair of ‘silver’ wheel trims – probably not what you would want to find in Santa’s present sack. These and other sundry items were collected from the streams and surrounding area and were placed in four rubbish bags.

However, in this elite company, North Norfolk Railway achieved major recognition and was awarded the Highly Commended Certificate, by the Rail Minister, Paul Maynard MP, for the new building which came into operation this summer.

The new facility has been designed to match the other station buildings at Sheringham and has been achieved in a way that compliments the railway and the town itself.

The building, which received a grant from the Coastal Communities Fund and NNDC, was started in October last year. The result is recognised as a credit to the town. The North Norfolk Railway now provides the Tourist Information operation for the town, with extended operations covering November and December and the facility opening again from February half term. The service is provided under contract to NNDC, as are the new toilet facilities available for the public and railway users.

North Norfolk Railway is proud to have achieved recognition for the railway and the region through this award which, being a national competition, highlights the importance of the railway to North Norfolk Tourism.

The streams will remain healthy and their inhabitants can look forward to a cleaner New Year.

Our next clean-up will be in the spring so if you fancy helping the local environment and can spare an hour or two look out for the posters and come along to the next meeting.

Our thanks go to NNDC and Kier for arranging and collecting our bags of ‘presents’.

KELLING PROBUS CLUB

Kelling Probus Club held its Christmas celebration on 15 December at the Links Hotel at West Runton. Forty two members and guests attended and, as usual, the meeting and eating were very happy and full of fun.

After lunch the gathering was entertained by Keith Skipper the broadcaster and raconteur who entertained everyone with his Norfolk tales and jokes.

Ladies attending left the meeting with a plant as a gift from Club members.

Kelling Probus Club meets on the third Thursday of each month at The Dales Hotel Upper Sheringham. The Club welcomes new members from retired or semi retired businessmen, and can promise an entertaining speaker and a good lunch at a very reasonable price.

Goats return to Cromer

North Norfolk District Council moves town’s famous Bagot goats into Happy Valley

Last year NNDC’s eight goats managed the habitat on Cromer’s overgrown cliff, and now the Council are setting them the same task at Happy Valley.

The Bagot billies, that have appeared on TV and in newspapers, have returned to the town and to a new home.

The fenced off area in Happy Valley will be grazed by the goats to keep unwanted plants and excessive growth to a minimum.

New six seater available

“The goats have proved to be a real draw to the town, a talking point for residents and an added sight on the visitor’s list of great things to see in Cromer. They are also incredible habitat managers. I hope they’ll enjoy their new home and work hard to get it shipshape.”

While a new area of land for the goats was identified and then securely fenced, the Bagots were grazed on land in Kelling.

The Bagot is believed to be Britain’s oldest breed of goat and unlike most other breeds - that favour mountains and uplands - it developed in the English lowlands. Bagots are very hardy and easy to tame.

Cllr Angie Fitch-Tillett Cabinet Member for Environmental Services said “We’re so pleased to have the goats back in Cromer. I have been asked by lots of people in town and further afield when the goats will return.

Now taking bookings for & than The past three months, October to December, were dominatedChrist by highermas pressure normal New Year. so subsequently conditions were quite benign.

We are open every day during The summer ran into October and from there until the end of the year, conditions were as the holida y period .

Weather with Ned Nimbus

predicted although the colder spells were less cold than I thought they would be by a couple of degrees.

The mildness over Christmas will have soon past and we will be back to high pressure and temperatures below normal. There will, of course, be some milder interludes but it won’t be until we get into March that these will begin to take a hold.

The past two years have been devoid of snow but this winter the chances of snow are much greater. 2016 was quite unsettled until we got to about May but thereafter each month showed improvement resulting in a good summer going on into October.

Otherwise, nothing of great note suggesting any long term changes. A few changes lasting a few years before we have another change about sums up the last fifty years. Normal temperatures (Jan 8 & 1, Feb 8 & 1 and March 10 & 2) Ned Nimbus, December 2016 Sheringham Independent 455

North Norfolk District Council Big Society Awards Launched North Norfolk District Council is organising a Big Society Awards Night to thank the people and the projects that help to create a strong community.

The Big Society Awards Night, which has the support of North Norfolk Radio, will be held at Sheringham Little Theatre on 23 March 2017 to celebrate the Big Society community spirit that helps to make North Norfolk such a great place to live.

People are being asked to nominate a project or a person that has made a difference in their community by 27 January 2017.

Categories open to public nomination are: • Big Society Community Project Award for projects that are based in or benefit people in the district

• Big Society Voluntary Services Award for Sport - for someone who has made an outstanding contribution to sport in the district • Big Society Voluntary Services Award for someone who has made an outstanding contribution for young people in the district

• Big Society Voluntary Services Award for someone who has made an outstanding contribution for older people in the district

• Big Society Voluntary Services Award for someone who has made an outstanding contribution to their neighbourhood

NNDC will also be inviting projects which were awarded a Big Society Fund between 2014 – 16 to make nominations in two other categories which are: • Outstanding Contribution to a Big Society Funded Project - by an Adult

Cllr Tom FitzPatrick, Leader of North Norfolk District Council and Chairman of the Big Society Fund Panel, said “The Big Society is all about supporting community projects and these awards are all about recognising the exceptional community spirit in our area.

“Everyone who contributes to their community and helps others deserves recognition and I hope people will come forward with their nominations and publically thank the people who help others.

“Since 2012 the Big Society Fund has funded over 163 community projects to date to the tune of £1,294,433 including: renovating play and recreational areas, creation of new community amenities, provision of sports hubs, and equipment and improvements to village halls.”

A Big Society Awards event was held for the first time in 2014; this will be the second awards ceremony.

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Like most animal charities, we close our doors for re-homing over the festive period. Introducing a new pet to your home at this busy time is not ideal, as most people, (although not all), have family and friends visiting at this time of the year. Coming from a shelter and settling in a new environment is itself a challenge for a new pet, especially cats.

Although some animals do settle very quickly it is safer and kinder to make the introductions once the celebrations have finished.

During this time the cats and kittens in care receive the same amount of attention as at any other time of the year, made possible by the lovely ladies who foster the cats and those who come to Dilham to clean the pens. It is the one time of the year all the volunteers know that they can enjoy time with family and friends, after cleaning and feeding the cats, often with a few treats added of course.

However, time passes quickly and we welcome a new year and any new challenges we may face. At the time of writing, one kitten and four adult cats have left for new homes, which is encouraging.

We are now involved with getting cats and older kittens neutered at another site. Unfortunately, the kittens are too old and have not had enough contact with people, to accept coming in to our pens. Arrangements have therefore been made for the cats and kittens to be trapped and taken to the vets to be neutered. The person who cares for the cats on site has kindly agreed to do this. This gentleman has been travelling some distance each day over the festive period to ensure the cats have been fed.

Woodlands Indoor Bowls Club

We do meet some lovely people when faced with these situations. When dealing with feral colonies, or even with stray cats who have had kittens Holtit isRoad, 8TU outside, importantUpper from ourSheringham point of view to getNR26 them in as soon as they are eating, (preferably from six weeks old), as they need to interact with people. We do sometimes have kittens come in from these situations which are older but it does take longer to get them to adapt.
