Businesses across the Great Yarmouth borough are invited to an important businesses breakfast, on Friday, April 7, about the efforts to refurbish Great Yarmouth’s vital tidal defences.

The tidal defences along the River Yare are central to business operations: they are key to reducing the flood risk to valuable business bases, stock and equipment, in addition to the homes of thousands of staff and customers, and to the highways and other infrastructure that keep everything running.

The defences are also an important factor in attracting and sustaining business investment and jobs in key industries that are essential to the prosperity of the local, regional and national economies.

Investment in the defences enables Great Yarmouth to realise its full economic potential and unlock huge opportunities for businesses.

Everyone benefits from Great Yarmouth’s tidal defences, which is why businesses have formed the Tidal Defences Business Partnership: a group of businesses, of various sizes, sectors and locations, which is working closely with Great Yarmouth Borough Council and the Environment Agency to help move the refurbishment works forward as quickly as possible.

All businesses are invited a free business breakfast, kindly sponsored by Norse, where you can:

• Find out more about this vital refurbishment scheme

• Discover the benefits and opportunities for your business

• Tell the Environment Agency about your own aspirations#

• Explore ways you can show support

• Get free advice to improve your flood resilience

This important business breakfast will take place at the Town Hall, on Friday, April 7, from 7.30am to 9.30am. To confirm attendance, please email Bernard Harris via bernard.harris@great-yarmouth.gov.uk

On Thursday 20th July, The Zoological Society of East Anglia will be launching our first ever corporate cycle challenge: The “Big Banham Bike Ride.” Our aim is to do something a little different from usual business fundraising and networking events. Rather than picking up the golf clubs, why not put on the lycra (other clothing choices are welcome too with prizes available for best dressed!) and join us for a big bike ride around a beautiful part of Norfolk.

For your part in signing up to help with our efforts to conserve some of the worlds most endangered wildlife you’ll be given a light welcome brunch, refreshments at the half way point and an afternoon finger buffet with the chance to network and place bids on some of our great cycling prizes. After the event you will be welcome to join us for a personal tour of Banham Zoo, to find out more about what we do and how we help save some of the worlds most endangered wildlife.

This is a great chance to network with the business community from across East Anglia as well as making a direct contribution to the Wildlife Conservation work of the Zoological Society of East Anglia.

Two routes are available – a 90km ride through rural Norfolk, or a slightly shorter 40km version. Both start and finish at Banham Zoo.

This hands-on workshop is to enable people who are not programmers to get into the world of programming. These two days are just an initial foray, to give people the basic ideas and a taste of what it is like.

The course will introduce programming using Python to people who have little or no idea what programming is. This will be a version for adults of the sort of new computing material that will be being taught to primary and secondary school students starting next year. The goal is to make sure people begin to understand the theory and practice of programming and computer science, but coming to it from a very practical viewpoint: theory emerges from practice.

There will be four sessions, each of three hours, each structured as a short introduction to a few topics, followed by a series of practical exercises to investigate the topics, and finishing with a short review/compare/contrast to consolidate the material of the session. The introductions will be part lecture part interactive demonstration – PDF files rather than paper will be provided for any overhead slides used in lecture mode. The series of practical exercises will be attenders, working in pairs, writing programs as directed by worksheets. The review session will a group discussion, and possibly live coding by the workshop leader, based around sample answers to the exercises.

You can find more details of what the course will cover and register here.
