Brain injury and stroke charity Headway Norfolk and Waveney is marking ABI Week (Action for Brain Injury Week) by celebrating a new podcast hosted by Headway employee and former Discovery Channel producer, Emma Martins. The podcast features inspiring interviews with people who have overcome huge adversity following their brain injury. The launch event is on 12^th May in Norwich. Headway Norfolk and Waveney is a charity that supports those affected by brain injury and stroke, whilst working to raise awareness and understanding of these conditions. With the annual ABI Week (Action for Brain Injury Week) just around the corner on 16^th – 22^nd May, they are launching a new series of podcasts from Emma Martins who herself suffered a brain injury and works at Headway Norfolk and Waveney. The new podcast is titled Headpods: a series of podcasts of inspirational survivor stories and is produced and presented by Emma Martins. Emma was at the height of her career as a television producer when she sustained a brain injury caused by a life-threatening viral infection she contracted while on holiday in Vietnam. Given just a 20% chance of survival and spending three months in hospital, she fought extremely hard. Following her illness Emma had to relearn how to walk and come to terms with the realisation that it would be impossible for her to return to her previous career. Learning to adapt to having partial sight, cognitive fatigue and severe dyslexia as a result of her brain injury, she created a podcast titled The Longest Battle as part of her own rehabilitation and to help others experiencing their own traumas and life battles. The series included an interview with former model Heather Mills, who had to have her leg amputated below the knee following a traffic collision with a police motorcycle, at the height of her career in the early 90s. Five years on Emma is working at Headway Norfolk and Waveney to support others with acquired brain injury and following the success of The Longest Battle, Emma has produced her new Headpods series, now being sponsored by Norwich law firm, Hatch Brenner Solicitors. This series features people with first-hand experience of the trauma and effects of brain injury. An exclusive excerpt of the first episode will be aired at the launch event on 12^th May at The Feed in Norwich’s Waterloo Park. The episode features Stacey, who at 63-years old, working as a construction insurance broker, fell from three steps down an entire flight of stairs at home, whilst rushing to be on time for her Pilates group. She suffered a traumatic brain injury which wasn’t initially diagnosed due to her hip sustaining a break in the fall. During the pandemic Stacey was unable to find support in the community so a year after her fall she self-referred herself to Headway Norfolk and Waveney. There she joined a peer support group and has since become a volunteer within the charity’s ABI (acquired brain injury) Connections Programme. “Emma’s podcast is inspirational, not just for her achievements following her brain injury but as a platform to raise awareness of invisible illness and disability” commented Headway Norfolk and Waveney CEO, Michael Kitching. “Launching the podcast for ABI Week reflects this year’s theme of ‘See the Hidden Me’. We are thrilled to welcome our podcast sponsors, Hatch Brenner Solicitors to the launch night, highlighting these inspiring interviews with individuals who have overcome their own life-changing experiences.” Headway NW Trustee and Hatch Brenner Solicitors Managing Partner, Colin Cook commented, “We are committed to helping raise awareness of the impact brain injury can have on the lives of those affected and their families. Our long-term support of Headway Norfolk and Waveney provides us with opportunities to achieve this and by supporting this podcast, we hope the message will reach and inspire many more.”    

Hatch Brenner Solicitors on Norwich’s Theatre Street has elected a new Managing Partner. The firm’s partnership has selected the Head of Dispute Resolution and leading brain injury solicitor, Colin Cook, for the role as the firm approaches its 130^th anniversary. The current Managing Partner, Dawn Parkes, stands down following eight years in the position. Dispute Resolution Partner and Personal Injury specialist, Colin Cook joined Hatch Brenner Solicitors in 2005 upon moving to Norwich and was appointed to the partnership in 2012. With over 25 years’ experience in personal injury litigation, Colin has handled landmark cases, including the recent nationally reported mild traumatic brain injury case – Long vs Elegant Resorts, securing over half a million pounds in compensation for the client following a fiercely contested trial. Qualifying in practice in Lancashire, Colin was a Partner at a London firm prior to joining Hatch Brenner Solicitors. Throughout his career Colin has helped hundreds of clients to receive the compensation they are entitled to. His cases range from several thousand to over a million pounds with many high-profile settlements. As an active member of the Norwich community, Colin sits on the board of trustees for brain injury charity Headway Norfolk and Waveney. “It is a truly exciting time to be taking the firm forward in the post COVID era. With formidable teams across all areas of the business, there is a world of opportunity to look forward to. I am honoured to be taking over this role from Dawn whose contribution and leadership over the last 8 years has been invaluable. We will continue to advise our clients, providing the highest levels of excellence and service,” comments Colin. “I’m really looking forward to leading Hatch Brenner Solicitors into its next phase and on behalf of the firm, I would like to thank Dawn Parkes for her years of service as Managing Partner”. Commenting on Colin’s election to the role, Dawn said: “I would like to congratulate Colin. I’ve witnessed his dedication to the firm and our clients over the past 17 years. I know that he brings the right qualities, skills, and experience to lead the partnership and Hatch Brenner Solicitors to continued success. The firm is in good hands.”

A powerful video created by a team of students at Norwich High School about the pressure young people feel to share nudes, has won the GDST online safety video competition. As part of the GDST’s Online Safety Day, students were challenged to shoot and edit a video about a chosen online safety topic in just a few hours, and they certainly rose to the challenge! The videos were submitted to the GDST Content Creation Team to judge and the winning video was then selected, which was created by Annie, Hope, Fliss and Caitlin (Year 8). “We were blown away by the sheer volume of high quality content these students were able to create in such a short space of time.” Emma Robertson, CEO of Digital Awareness UK Emma continued: “The winning entry was selected because it cleverly demonstrated how young people can experience pressure to share nudes through the messaging graphics and the animations creatively showed the impact such experiences can have on your mental health. We also liked that there was a clear call to action to help viewers understand what they can do should they find themselves in a similar situation. Huge pats on the back all round!” Well done to all – a fantastic achievement!

Council-owned companies are being encouraged to reduce their carbon emissions, as part of the county council’s efforts to help Norfolk become carbon neutral. Norse Group, Hethel Innovation Ltd, Repton Property Developments Ltd and Independence Matters are the focus of a report to the county council’s cabinet next month (May). Councillor Greg Peck, cabinet member for commercial services and asset management, said: “The county council is making substantial progress towards net zero on its own estate – we’re now turning our attention to our wholly-owned companies, which together can help reduce the county’s carbon emissions significantly. “This makes environmental sense and commercial sense. As the Government focuses on the UK’s commitment to reach net zero by 2050, companies need to be ready to respond to legislation and business opportunities which call for carbon reduction measures.” The report says: “While owned by the council, these are separate entities which means Norfolk County Council does not have direct control over their emissions. However, as the owner or major shareholder, the council can exert considerable influence to put in place carbon reduction targets and plans.” Each company will be encouraged to set out carbon reduction targets, once it better understands its own carbon footprint. If cabinet backs the proposal, there will be a follow-up report which outlines the progress of each company in establishing specific carbon reduction targets. Cabinet will consider the report when it meets at 10am on Tuesday, 3^rd May. Watch the meeting, live or afterwards and read the report at https://norfolkcc.cmis.uk.com/norfolkcc/CalendarofMeetings/tabid/128/ctl/ViewMeetingPublic/mid/496/Meeting/1896/Committee/169/SelectedTab/Documents/Default.aspx

Construction consultancy Daniel Connal Partnership (DCP) is celebrating two local award wins for sustainability and collaboration, plus national short-listing for a community benefit award, on three different projects. Elm House for Breckland District Council took the 2022 prize for Excellence in Sustainability at the Norfolk Constructing Excellence awards held on 28th April at Dunston Hall, near Norwich. This project saw the transformation of a disused 1960’s Thetford community centre to provide temporary accommodation supporting up to 35 residents back into long term housing. DCP and Kier Construction were jointly crowned winners in the Excellence in Collaboration category for the Dyson STEAM Building at Gresham’s School in Holt. This project saw delivery of a 4000m² state-of-the-art education facility; classrooms, laboratories, workshops and flexible open-plan spaces facilitating the teaching of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM). The Dyson Building was also Highly Commended in the Excellence in Sustainability category. Daniel Connal Partnership (DCP) is also celebrating news that a third project is in the running for a national award. A YMCA Norfolk project has been short-listed for a ‘community benefit’ accolade at the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) Awards 2022. These awards celebrate ‘inspirational’ developments that demonstrate outstanding achievement right across the UK. Opened in 2021, a new Community Hub for YMCA Norfolk in Norwich saw DCP manage works to transform a vacant Royal British Legion premises, into a thriving family focused, multi-generational space to support a deprived area of the city. Robert Dale, Senior Partner at Daniel Connal Partnership, said: “We are so proud of our dedicated team, who work extremely hard to achieve successful outcomes on all projects. It is wonderful that two of our Norfolk projects are award-winners for sustainability and collaborative working and that another is recognised by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors amongst the best in UK.” He added: “YMCA Norfolk Community Hub is an exceptional community project of which we are very proud. There is a lot of tough competition, but to be amongst them in the mix is something to be celebrated.” 47 projects have been short-listed in the community benefit category for the 2022 awards, to be announced via an online ceremony on 18 May 2022. Daniel Connal Partnership won the community benefit category in the 2019 RICS Awards Eastern Region for its Wells Maltings development in North Norfolk. Established in 1946, Daniel Connal Partnership (DCP) offers a range of specialist construction services working across the UK, with offices in Norwich, Colchester and London. The company has particular strengths in the education sector and public interest building projects, by its highly experienced team of project managers, quantity surveyors, building surveyors and health & safety advisers.

Four rail stations in Norfolk have received a ‘Wildlife Friendly’ accreditation recognising the work of community volunteers to improve biodiversity and support nature.  Greater Anglia has partnered with Norfolk Wildlife Trust to formally recognise the achievements of its team of volunteer ‘station adopters’ to create wildlife havens at stations across its network through the new ‘Greater Anglia Wildlife Friendly Stations Accreditation Scheme.’ Brundall Gardens, Cantley, West Runton and Thetford stations became the first ones to receive the award this week, following assessment by a Norfolk Wildlife Trust Conservation Officer to determine how well they support local flora and fauna. James Hogg, Norfolk Wildlife Trust’s Corporate and Membership Development Officer, said: “The alarming decline in the abundance of wildlife and the plight of species under threat means that just protecting the nature we have left is not enough; we need to put nature into recovery, and to do so at scale and with urgency. We are working to create a nature recovery network across Norfolk – and with fellow wildlife trusts across the UK – to create more space for wildlife. “This project with Greater Anglia is a fantastic example of how people can transform nature-poor areas into new nature-rich places – and change the way we think about land, seizing opportunities to help nature outside traditional nature reserves.” Each assessment also offers tips and advice for how to make the stations more wildlife friendly and the reports can also be used as examples of best practice to help spread good ideas around all Greater Anglia’s stations. Greater Anglia’s Customer and Community Engagement Manager, Alan Neville, said, “We’re delighted to partner with the region’s wildlife trusts to formally recognise the valuable work of our station adopter volunteers in supporting wildlife and improving their local environment.” “I’d like to congratulate the volunteers at these stations on receiving this recognition and thank them for the incredible work that are doing that makes each station a wonderful place to be, that is contributing to support biodiversity locally.” Rail stations in East Anglia are increasingly becoming havens for local wildlife thanks to the efforts of volunteers who last year transformed over 6,800 square metres of land into thriving wildlife gardens. In a recent survey, Greater Anglia station adopters reported a wide range of creatures visiting their stations including many different types of butterflies as well as bees, slow worms, bats, foxes, deer and many varieties of birds, recording more than 200 different species. Greater Anglia has joined the rest of the rail industry in pledging to make stations across Britain more sustainable. Action to reduce waste, support local wildlife and cut the carbon footprint of railway stations will be informed by the industry’s Sustainable Stations: Best Practice Guide, which details ways in which train operators can meet this commitment in support of global goals of decarbonisation, reducing waste and supporting local plant and animal life. Norfolk Wildlife Trust’s vision for a Nature Recovery Network envisages a landscape in which nature reserves are connected by corridors of habitat, through which wild species and their genes flow freely. Crucially, people are also personally connected to wildlife and wild landscape, for their own wellbeing and for the benefit of nature. Above: Thetford station adopters receiving their award.

Lotus Mayfair: landmark London location for first ever global store and digital showroom

• Piccadilly store directly opposite iconic Ritz Hotel will open this autumn – the first of many in major world cities
• Two-storey site includes three-car showroom, the perfect shop window for Eletre, Emira and Evija
• Lotus Mayfair will serve as London home for Lotus Advanced Performance division

  Many of the world’s best-known premium and luxury brands, automotive and beyond, have a retail presence in London’s upmarket Mayfair district. Later this year Lotus will join them. The company is to open its first ever global store at 73 Piccadilly, on the corner of Berkeley Street and directly opposite one of the most famous buildings in the UK’s capital city – the iconic Ritz Hotel. More such stores are planned for major cities around the world. Currently under construction, the all-new Lotus store’s prime position makes it the perfect location to offer direct sales of Lotus cars to customers. As a brand beacon it will boast more than 450m² of stunning retail space over two floors and serve as the perfect shop window for the Eletre hyper-SUV, the Emira sports car and the Evija hypercar. The ground floor has space to show three Lotus cars in a spectacular environment and will include a full Lotus merchandise retail outlet. Below will be a VIP lounge for visiting customers – existing or future – and a full Lotus digital configuration suite. The store will also provide a discreet London home for clients of Lotus Advanced Performance, the bespoke and experiential division of the business launched earlier this year. The store will open in the autumn with a launch event, celebrating the latest milestone in the ongoing transformation of Lotus from a UK sports car company to a global performance business and brand. Geoff Dowding, Executive Director, Sales and Aftersales, Lotus, commented: “This flagship facility will allow anyone to see our exciting three-car range, understand our brand, speak with a Lotus Expert, configure a car using state-of-the-art digital e-commerce technology and even reserve it through our recently launched e-commerce platform.” He added: “As this is the first of our global stores and as it’s in the very centre of London, we fully expect Lotus Mayfair to attract many visitors from around the world. As such, it will play host to some of the most amazing Lotus cars from today and yesterday – including from our legendary racing past – as well as a packed calendar of events at the store.” News of the forthcoming Lotus Mayfair store was shared earlier this week with more than 300 representatives of the Lotus international network at the brand’s first Global Retailer Conference since the launch of the Vision80 strategy to transform the business and brand. Staged at Hethel, UK – the home of Lotus since 1966 – to showcase the Norfolk site’s £100million redevelopment, VIP guests had travelled from as far away as New Zealand and Hawaii for a deep dive into the future of Lotus. They were among the first in the world to drive the critically acclaimed Emira, the last petrol-powered car from Lotus, and were given a thrilling glimpse of exciting new products to be launched in the coming months.

The Place, on New Conduit Street opposite Wilko, was launched last month by Discover King’s Lynn, the town’s Business Improvement District (BID), with funding from the Government’s Community Renewal Fund. The pop-up project aims to attract more people into the town centre, and give local small and micro businesses, budding entrepreneurs and creatives the chance to see what it could be like having a physical presence in the town centre without incurring prohibitive costs. During the week, The Place will function as a business hub which local businesses can use to join in on training and networking sessions, take advantage of comfortable hot-desking or meeting spaces, and access free, professional advice. At evenings and weekends, the venue will become a rentable pop-up space that can be booked by local business owners and creatives to host their experiences, workshops and exhibitions, as well showcase any retail offerings. The Place is intended to give online, new and existing businesses the opportunity to try out a physical space. The Place’s opening weekend included a range of Easter activities for families and a Pizza School hosted by The Pizza Slice Guy, with over 400 people coming through the doors. Vicky Etheridge, BID manager, says: “The possibilities for The Place are endless and we are so keen to see what ideas the local west Norfolk businesses can come up with. Events could include cocktail workshops, make-up lessons, styling fashion shows, cookery sessions – anything you can think of! “If you run an online shop and want to try having a physical space in the town centre then now is your chance. We’ve covered rent, rates and utilities and all you’ll have to do is show up and show off your products!” If you’d like to find about more about rental fees and what The Place can offer you and your business, get in touch with Discover King’s Lynn at theplace@discoverkingslynn.com
