MJ, MP Working Group Presentations: Action Lifelong Learning and Education: Since last meeting GC has sent letter to Salhouse School acknowledging visit and summarising information gained. He has researched prizes for the School art competition; agreement was reached that there would be one winner in each section (prize to value of £12-15) and 2 equal runners up (prizes to value of £4-5). Up to £50 will be made available for prizes to include cost of wrapping and card/certificate. Actions: Sec’s note: Prizes have been purchased within budget. Mrs Pat Barnes has confirmed that Jubilee Hall is heavily booked, making it difficult to fit in any more adult education classes. Art classes are currently suspended indefinitely, Carole Tims has been contacted re music classes/events and Mrs Ann Metcalfe has provisionally agreed a visit to the Playgroup on 12th June. Other actions will be to obtain brochures for Awareness Day and take more photos. Recreation and Leisure: Since the last meeting JB has taken over Chair of this WG. JB and JR met to discuss progress to date. It was decided to approach all those previously contacted but this time with a list of questions tailored to each activity/age group and ask if they would be prepared to discuss the subject further. A meeting of the co-opted members has been arranged for 14th June. GC will research local footpaths past and present and be in charge of WG’s copy of LAMIS. RC will investigate history of playing fields. JB will research history of Jubilee Hall and Village public houses past and present. A full meeting of the WG will be arranged as soon as possible. Sec’s note: WG meeting arranged for 19th June at 7pm. Transport and Infrastructure: No further meetings have been held due to CMcC’s absence but the WG members have continued with their research. CMcC has spoken to PC Taylor re statistics for accidents in the Village. As a result of this meeting PC Taylor has agreed to order 2 rubber strip speed detectors for the Village. The group has continued to put together information for the Awareness Day. MP still has some photos to take eg aircraft and HGVs. Community Services: AP has spoken to the Diocesan Office re mobile phone mast for Church. Unfortunately companies prefer to site these in areas of high population. Applications should be co-ordinated with Broadland District Council Planning Department. PG suggested commonality with Transport WG. PG also thought that AP might approach a new resident, who is a paramedic, to help with the PP. AP will follow up display and flip boards for the Awareness Day. Actions: Business, Agriculture and Tourism: AM reported a disappointing response to the Business Questionnaire with only 4 out of 18 replies received. A meeting took place between AM, CMcC, PG and Mr Henry Cator. Amongst topics discussed were diversification away from agriculture, use of redundant farm buildings and the provision of a circular walk between the Village and Salhouse Broad. Mr Cator would like to know how the Village views the Broad. He was very positive with suggestions to improve footpaths (he can give land but cannot be involved in the construction) and also has a possible use for the field near the Broad as a Country Park. Plans for the future of Salhouse Hall might include a retirement complex and/or gardens open to the public. All would bring opportunities for employment within the village. As a result of this discussion, AM has also assumed responsibility for tourism aspects in this WG. Awareness Day photos for this group would include Salhouse Hall, Vicarage Farm and the Broad as well as local businesses. Sec’s note: All WG Chairs are reminded to send latest hard copy update to JB. Village Awareness Day AM brought some very interesting maps of the Village. It was felt that
these should be displayed at the Awareness Day. GC offered a means of
mounting these maps. Availability on day.
Name badges will be required for all members attending the Awareness Day
– to include Christian and surname. Sandwiches will be provided for the SG members. Publicity. PG would like advertising boards at entrances to Village and also in Jubilee Hall garden. Other sites suggested were Village notice boards, Broad car park, The Bell, Salhouse Garden Centre, Village shop and plant barrows around Village. A notice will be posted on website. Maps x 3 are to be provided by Richard Squires at no cost to the PP. Questions for Awareness Day to include:- These questions will help open the dialogue. A suggestion was made that there
should be a printed questionnaire for those reluctant to engage in discussions. · A flyer to be handed out at the door or info board positioned there.· Preparation. As much preparation as possible should be done on Friday pm in the Jubilee Hall. Mrs Pat Barnes should be contacted to check availability of hall on Friday afternoon and evening, even if only to use office for storage overnight. · On morning of Awareness Day PG and RC will arrive early (8am) to ensure that everything is in place by 9.30am.
