There will be plenty of entertainment for all the family including traditional dancing by The Weavers Morris dancers, baton twirling by The Rebels and live rock music by local band Minds not lived in. Many of the towns local charities and organisations are planning and setting up their stalls with many of the stallholders in festive fancy dress. On that note the Christmas Fancy Dress Competition is open to all with the judging taking place on the evening. Many of the towns shops will also be open with many offering their own individual brand of Christmas cheer to customers old and new. So come along and join in the fun. Santa is looking forward to meeting you!
SPEAKING UP FOR OUR TOWN
A Christmas message from Audrey Woods, Town Mayor of North Walsham.
Christmas time brings out in most of us, the wish to do something good. In families and in the community there is often a spirit of good neighbourliness and kindness. You will see this well displayed at the Christmas Street Fayer on Friday, December 8th when most of the stalls will be raising funds for all sorts of charities and local good causes. We need to remember this when discussing the condition of our town. The recent Town meeting dwelt mostly on the many difficulties we face especially in the shopping centre. A lot of time was spent drawing up a list of all that is wrong for the Traders in the Town Centre, comparing us unfavourably with some other North Norfolk Market Towns. But we all know that this is only one part of our community. Underneath there lies a vibrant and extensive network of caring and helpfulness. Not only in the large amounts of money raised for charity every year but in the countless acts of kindness between neighbours. In my year as Town Mayor it is my privilege to meet lots of people willing to give time to those in need, and those who run the many clubs and group activities for all ages. I can see quite plainly that there is much that is right with our town. There is a great fund of good neighbourliness in North Walsham of which we can justly be very proud. A Town is far more than its shops and offices, as important as they are. A Town is to be judged by the people in it and its sense of caring for one another. By that standard North Walsham ranks very high. So, speak up for our Town. A very happy Christmas to everyone in North Walsham.

GRAND STREET FAIR, FRIDAY 8TH DECEMBER 6PM - SWITCH ON THIS YEAR 6.30PM
The organisation of the Grand North Walsham Street Fair to celebrate the switching on of the towns Christmas Lights is well advanced. Some 20 Charities and Local Organisations have already taken space and the Chamber are pleased to welcome several newcomers to the events.
The switch on to coincide with the arrival of Father Christmas, who will be in attendance in his Grotto during the evening, is timed for 6.30pm this year and, in addition to the Salvation Army Bands traditional Christmas Carols, the Market Place will come alive to the merry jingle of bells as The Weavers Morris entertain with their own brand of baldrics! The entertainment will continue with the twirling and whirling of The Rebels batons, and Minds Not Lived In will follow with a selection of classic rock music - finally bringing the evening to a close with their own brand of ambient jazz funk.
Judging of entries in the Christmas Window Dressing Competition will take place on the evening with the announcement of winners at 8pm to be followed by the award prizes for fancy dress in three categories - shop keepers, stall holders and young people under the age of 16. Christmas is the theme - keep simple to enable everyone an opportunity to dress up.
Tickets for the Christmas Draw with a first prize of 100 are now on sale and prizes will be drawn on Monday 11th December - 3pm at 17 Market Place by our lady Mayor, who will also perform the switch on ceremony for us - (all winners will be notified by telephone thereafter).
Despite the continuing difficult economic climate, the North Walsham Chamber are delighted with the many contributions received from many local traders - not only towards the financing of the Christmas Lights but also donations for the Christmas Draw. Public acknowledgement will be given on the evening but the Chamber takes this opportunity to say thank you to those local organisations who, being unable to participate on the night, have generously contributed towards the costs involved.
On a less buoyant note - it is with regret that several of the towns shops do not participate in the Christmas Lighting Scheme - others do their own thing - some for whatever reason do not even remain open for the evening - The event has been specially designed, not only to celebrate the switching on of the towns Christmas Lights but also to encourage the whole community to take part - the absence and, in some cases the presence, of Christmas Trees on the towns buildings is a clear indication of lack of participation - perhaps the Chamber should be encouraging the local community to better support those Traders whose clear endeavours indicate support for the town from which they earn a living. The Chamber, through the good offices of this publication, invites all those traders who do not already do so, to participate in the towns Christmas Lighting Scheme by having a bracket erected on their building - It may not be too late for 1995 - it certainly is not for 1996!
A Merry Christmas North Walsham and a more prosperous 1996.

The Carpenters Arms
The aim of the Carpenters Arms is to provide a smoke, drug and alcohol free bar for the young people of the town. It is a charity with a management committee whose members are ordinary Christian people from the Methodist, Catholic, Church of England, New Life, Salvation Army, and Quaker denominations. Volunteers from all walks of life help keep the bar open . . . . please note the new opening times on the voucher. The bar is a place were you will find local people working together to help the younger person to enjoy an environment which promotes a healthy balanced lifestyle. The Carpenters Arms is a very practical way of offering a good alternative to the drug scene which many of our young citizens are pressured to flirt with and get dependant. So if you are reading this and want to help why not phone Ann or Mary, the managers on (01692) 404821, for more details on how to become a volunteer. We particularly need morning cleaning help as well as bar staff.
We are looking forward to celebrating Christmas. Volunteers who undertake to fundraise, which is a vital part of the work, will be organising a cake stall for the town celebrations on Friday December 8th so please visit the stall and then use the voucher printed in this newspaper, and warm up with a nice hot mug of tea or coffee. (If you are new to the town, you will find the bar in Market Street.)
We hope to introduce the sport and music channel from Sky TV soon, but we need a colour 21 TV with remote control. Any one got a spare? We could put it to good use. We are also looking for bar billiards and an upright freezer to replace the one thats worn out. If you can help please phone the bar, number above.
All the team from the Carpenters Arms join me in wishing you joy and laughter, peace and contentment, as we celebrate again the master Carpenters - Jesus - birth. We pray too that you will work with us to continue to give support and hope and friendship as other agencies do, to the young people of this town, in the coming year. A Happy New Year to all. Marian Sharp

SERVICE CHARGES ON LEASEHOLD FLATS
Most owners of leasehold flats have to pay service charges to the freeholder in addition to the annual ground rent. Service charges cover payments for cleaning, repairs, maintenance, insurance and management expenses. The service charge may be in two parts, one a regular annual amount, the other variable, to cover major items such as roof repairs or outside painting of the whole block. The lease sets out the amount of the service charge and provides for increases over the years.
A leaseholder who has taken a lease with over twenty-one years left to run and pays a variable service charge in addition to the ground rent will have statutory rights additional to those set out in the lease. In this case, the leaseholder must be consulted about any work the cost of which will exceed the greater of 1,000, or 50 times the number of flats in the building, unless the work is urgent.
The freeholder must notify the leaseholders of the work to be done and obtain two estimates for the work, one of which must be from an independent person (i.e. not a relative or an employee) and either send copies of the estimates to each leaseholder or display them prominently in the building. If there is a recognised tenants or residents association, the free holder must send the secretary a copy of the notice of intended works and of each estimate. The notice must include an address to which leaseholders can send their comments and give a closing date at least one month ahead by which comments must be received.
Leaseholders can challenge estimates which they consider too high, and can obtain their own estimates and send these in with their comments. The freeholder must consider the leaseholders comments and estimates but does not have to have the agreement of all the leaseholders to the work or accept the lowest estimate.
A leaseholder may dispute the service charge if he feels that there is nothing in the lease requiring him to pay, the amount of the charge is unreasonable, not all the work was necessary or that it is of an unsatisfactory standard, that a lower estimate should have been accepted or that the freeholder should have followed the statutory consultation procedure and did not do so.
On receipt of the bill, the leaseholder should write to the freeholder, setting out why he disputes the bill. The leaseholder is only liable to pay a reasonable amount for the work done and is not liable for any charge for work done more than eighteen months before payment was requested.

THE OLD SADDLERS SHOP, NORTH WALSHAM
The project for the refurbishment of the Old Saddlers Shop in North Walsham has been launched successfully by an enthusiastic group of members of the Parish Church of St Nicholas. Main activity at this stage is one of fund raising and, to date, car boot sales, coffee mornings and social functions have raised more than 1000.
Near future events include a bottle stall and raffle at the Town Street Fair on December 8th and a Christmas Ploughmans Lunch in the St Nicholas Room.
For nearly three decades the property known as the Old Saddlers Shop and owned by the Parish Church Council of St Nicholas, North Walsham, has been leased as a shop supplying electrical goods and services. In earlier years, around 1927, the building housed a saddlery and leatherwork shop, serving the local town and agricultural requirements.
Over the years the building has deteriorated and with the recent retirement of the tenant and the subsequent closing of the electrical business, the building has now reverted to the total responsibility of the Parish Church Council.
The aim of the project is to refurbish the building and to turn the shop into further accommodation which will help the Parish in its Mission work, particularly with regard to young people. The Parish Church has a thriving Boys Choir, a lively Girls Friendly Society, a Sunday School and a developing Youth Group. All of these groups need further space other than that is presently available.
Additionally, North Walsham suffers from a lack of reasonably priced space to let to other organisations including Young Mothers, Playgroups, O.A.P. groups, etc. On this basis the project would have a distinct benefit to the local community as well as furthering the work of the Parish Church in the town.
Building estimates indicate an overall cost of refurbishment in the region of 16,000 and it is hoped that costs will be much reduced by appeals to local companies for the donation of such materials as may be required and the use of voluntary labour.
The successful completion of this project will provide an excellent facility for both the Church and as an outreach into the wider community and at the same time restore a building which is part of the history of our town.
To make a contribution to the project, cash or help, call Rick Greenhill on 01692 402701.
DID YOU KNOW?
North Walsham Town Football Club consists of 3 senior Saturday, 3 Sunday (NWTFC & Black Swan) and 9 youth teams all being catered for at the Greens Road complex. The 1st team play in Division 1 of the Anglian combination under the leadership of local legend Tommy Harrison and are at present top of the table, not bad going for a team that had to apply for re-election just over a decade ago.
Off the field much has also changed with the construction of a bar and function room completed by football club members and planning permission submitted for floodlights.
Running a successful football club takes time and of course money, so we must thank all those local businesses that have contributed by way of sponsorship especially; The Prince of Bengal (1st XI kit), J. B. Postle (2nd XI kit), Bacton Ship (3rd XI kit), Ashford Windows (Sunday XI kit) and North Kebab House (1st XI Sub suits).
We have to look back to 1879 and the old Angel Inn to find where the Club was first formed, hence the name The Angels. Since then the club has seen both good and bad days, but is now only looking forward.
The club is now being run like a small business and promoting a more professional attitude with potentially the best programme around and a sponsorship brochure offering a wide range of initiatives in promoting local businesses through the medium of sport.
So, if youre looking for something to do on a Saturday afternoon or a Sunday, why not come along and watch a game and enjoy the friendly atmosphere and facilities.
All at North Walsham Town Football Club wish you all a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

LETS ALL POOL TOGETHER
NORTH WALSHAM SWIMMING POOL FUND ASSOCIATION held their A.G.M. last week and Ellen Grover was re-elected as Chairman. Mr. Oakley- Vice Chairman, Mr. Stan Lambourn - Treasurer and Mrs. Sara Gaff - Secretary.
The chairman thanked Mrs. Nettie Clack, retiring treasurer, for her past invaluable service and also for submitting the annual accounts so promptly. Additional thanks also to Sexty and Co. who kindly audit our accounts for us. We are very sorry to be losing Nettie as a member of our committee but this is unavoidable as she will shortly be moving away.
We are pleased to announce that the fund now stands at 72,000.
We are slowly making progress towards applying for a grant from the National Lottery. Several sites around the town are being studied very seriously with regard to accessability, parking, highways and various other considerations. What we are hoping for in due couse is to have a 25 metre ORDINARY pool which will be available for all the community to use and also to be acceptable for competitive swimming. Who knows !
We may have an Olympic Champion in North Walsham, after all we do have other first class sports people and given the right opportunities everyone will be given a better chance. I still feel that this must be our target for the MILLENIUM but we need to raise more funds so our next objective will be to search for serious sponsorship money.
Now, a plea for a different kind of help. We are a very small band of volunteers on our committee and we would be pleased to have assistance from any willing helpers out there. Fund raising ideas , please, PLUS people willing to help to run them and especially from anyone IN THE KNOW as to where there is a POT OF GOLD !!!
So come on North Walsham, your swimming pool is becoming a possibility, so dont be shy, come forward and give us a hand to make it happen.
