Welcome to the Sheringham District Councillors Team report for February 2023
Cllrs Bevan-Jones, Heinink and Withington
NNDC are supporting the community in challenging times
Housing Crisis in North Norfolk
Currently NNDC as the local housing authority has 2,764 households on the Housing register with 19% of these being on the priority list the Housing Register. As of the 31st January there are 205 open cases for households who are homeless or will be made homeless in the next 56 days. The greatest need is for 1 and 2 bedroom properties with 1575 and 680 households respectively on these lists.
244 houses have been let as social housing in the last quarter.
As of the 31st January there are 75 households in temporary accommodation. 22% of families living in temporary accommodation have been there for more than 6 months. NNDC have now purchased 18 temporary Accommodation units for North Norfolk residents to alleviate this problem but it continues to be a significant issue
A number of factors (including the cost of living crisis, rising mortgage interest rates, no fault evictions in the private rented sector, a reduction in new affordable homes being built due to nutrient neutrality ) mean NNDC anticipate a sustained or potential increased need for Temporary Accommodation for the foreseeable future. To help meet this demand we will be piloting a Private Sector Leasing Scheme which will involve the council leasing a property in exchange for a guaranteed income to the owner.
Rough Sleepers – NNDC are currently dealing with 3 entrenched rough sleepers. SWEP was introduced form 04th December until the 04th January and 14th January to the 24th. 11 people were supported into emergency accommodation.
Early Intervention Team
North Norfolk District Council’s Early Intervention Team are working to help residents across the District who are threatened with homelessness.
It is never too early to get help and the Early Intervention Team provides support for individuals and families across North Norfolk with housing-related issues and will work to address the problem.
The team try to do this at an early stage before the individual or family become homeless and ideally before a significant risk of homelessness arises. They are part of the Council’s Housing Options team and work closely with other services to identify those in need and provide support and advice.
If you or someone you know are having problems which make it difficult at home, such as:
- Rent arrears or other debt worries
- Arguments at home or relationship breakdowns
- Changes to your household
- Changes to your health
The Early Intervention Team can help
If you or someone you may know is threatened with homelessness, the Early Intervention Team can help and assist you by:
- Talking through some options, you may have to help yourself
- Try to help keep you in your current home where possible
- Work with you to secure alternative accommodation
Where possible, the Council aims to make sure residents remain in their current homes by helping at an early stage, the Early Intervention Team will seek to understand your current situation and help to resolve your situation.
The most important thing you can do is contact the Early Intervention Team on 01263 513811 or email early.intervention@north-norfolk.gov.uk as soon as possible.
The NNDC Housing Strategy was also agreed in 2021 to help address this housing crisis. This was developed through the Housing Enabling Team working in collaboration with Registered Providers (housing Associations) Letting agents, Charities, Parish and town Councils, planners. It focuses on developing the best ways to bring affordable rental properties to North Norfolk for all ages,disabilities and types of household groups.
As a Council we know the government schemes for shared ownership and the new First homes initiative bring only shared ownership homes which are beyond the means of those in our area. North Norfolk residents are often on low incomes and have seasonal employment, hence the importance we place on building the districts stock of affordable rental homes.
Also within the housing strategy have been established ways to support those facing no fault evictions which is becoming increasingly common with landlords taking advantage of high house process and also high yields from holiday lets. The Council have established rent guarantees and advance deposits and advance payment of rent for 6months to a year to help those faced with Section 21 notices. Please get in touch at the earliest point to seek help form the housing intervention team. early.intervention@north-norfolk.gov.uk
Linked to this NNDC also voted to increase Council Tax on Second Homes by 100% when it becomes agreed in Law. This will bring 8 million pounds in as revenue. If ring fenced for Social housing this could be used to purchase land for exceptions sites. These would be provided by housing providers as social housing and the developments would become financially viable with the purchase of the land. This is not about demonising second home owners but ensuring the impact from high numbers of second homes can be mitigated for local people.
Sadly the Government have recently delayed bringing in this legislation now until at least 2024. In addition the New Homes Bonus grant that has supported projects with match funding from NNDC to purchase land and homes for social renting has also been cut. Despite the 3% income guarantee from the precept the result is a net loss of £800,000 to Council budgets. The Council Tax Levy would have therefore played an important role in enabling NNDC to further address the Housing Crisis.
Early Help Hub
Financial Support
The Early Help Hub has also produced a comprehensive list of financial support available for community support organisations to direct people to. This has been shared in the community via organisations such as Healthier Sheringham to their partners and those working on projects with NNDC and the ICB
Please contact us if you are aware of people who need financial support as a result of the Cost of living Crisis
General help is available here
The Household Support Fund
NNDC has been awarded £88k under round 3. NNDC have used the funding to target support to 210 disabled households and 342 low income households who did not receive the DWP COL payments. Each household received a £100 Post office Voucher which they can cash at any Post Office. 91% of vouchers have been cashed. Where they are not cashed NNDC are working with households to support further.
The Household support fund application form is also live on the website

Challenging times with Climate Change
TREES: Our 110,000 Trees project has hit another major milestone!
We have now planted 109,000 trees, planting with local community groups, volunteers and charities

Kerbside Battery Collection
North Norfolk District Council, Breckland, Kings Lynn and West Norfolk Council are delighted to be launching a new free weekly kerbside collection service to residents in partnership with Serco.From 30 January residents will be able to recycle used household batteries. The collections will be weekly, so residents just need to place their used household batteries in a freezer bag, or similar sized clear bag, on top of either their black or green bin on their usual collection day for them to be recycled. It is important that the batteries are placed on top of the bins because if they are not separated, they will go into the body of the vehicle where they risk being crushed which can cause vehicle fires and fires at the processing facility.
Batteries are made from many different materials including lithium-ion (used in laptop batteries), zinc (used in AA batteries) and nickel cadmium (used in power tool batteries); all are recycled into their component parts. The recovered materials can be used to manufacture new batteries and electronics; they can also be used in the steel industry and even in paint production.
Cllr Nigel Lloyd, portfolio holder for Environmental Services, Climate Change and Environment said:
“I am delighted that North Norfolk District Council, working in partnership with Serco, will be offering this new kerbside small battery collection service to North Norfolk residents. As a society we have become more and more reliant on battery powered devices. However, spent batteries can pose a significant risk to the environment when not disposed of responsibly and can be dangerous if they enter our standard waste processing facilities.
“I hope residents will take advantage of this new service. Our desire is to make it easier for residents to protect their environment with the added benefit of recycling the increasingly scarce metals found within batteries.”
Sheringham Little Theatre Renovations
Following a survey in 2022 the poor energy efficiency of the Little Theatre and the poor standard of some internal structures was identified. This was as part of an Asset survey for the District Council of all their assets. This had never been completed before by the previous administration. With the recent energy crisis the Theatre had experienced a 7 fold increase in its energy bills which made this important energy efficiency work of even more importance. The photo below shows the construction of the internal porch and addition of new ceiling and insulation.
As part of the 4-week programme, the building has undergone measures to improve the energy efficiency and internal structures,
The ground floor has gone through a full refurbishment to replace the flooring, ceiling tiles and install new kitchen facilities in The Hub café.
An internal porch area has been constructed to reduce heat loss and insulation improved along with the windows. Internal and external lighting throughout the building has also been replaced with energy efficient lighting.
The environmental impact was a consideration with the planning of the renovation works – all existing furniture within the Sheringham Little Theatre has been re-used, upcycled and improved as opposed to replacing them.
Materials to make the improvements in the building are also environmentally friendly, opting for sustainable alternatives such as Thermalyte board instead of plasterboard for the ceiling tiles, or water-based paints.
The works, which cost £92,000, have been joint funded by North Norfolk District Council, Norfolk County Council and Sheringham Little Theatre.
The works had to be completed in a very short time frame and were completed ahead of schedule. The Little Theatre Management have been very complimentary about the development, management and completion of this project by NNDC.
The Hub opened on the 11th February
Cabinet have approved the funding for the Coastal Transition Accelerator Programme.
Council’s Cabinet approved the governance arrangements for the Coastal Transition Accelerator Programme (CTAP), which will enable the Council to finalise funding with the Environment Agency (EA) to develop coastal change approaches.
North Norfolk has been selected by the government to receive funds to explore innovative approaches to adapting to the effects of coastal erosion. This is as a result of their nationally acclaimed work that has been completed by NNDC already in this area through Coastal Partnership East.
As the programme develops, it will involve engagement with communities, individuals, infrastructure providers and businesses along the North Norfolk coastline.
The Cabinet approval also includes authority to submit the necessary outline business case to the EA and delegates authority to the Chief Executive, in consultation with the Leader of the Council, Portfolio Holder and Monitoring Officer to acquire land and assets in excess of £100,000 on value, where it will assist with the coastal transition accelerator programme.
This CTAP fund is not a compensation scheme, but rather, is intended to help coastal communities that cannot sustainably be defended from coastal erosion prepare and plan for the long term.
Alongside this Cllr Withington was invited by IPACT (Infrastructure for Ports and Coastal Towns to present at their conference and SANDPIT on the 10th January.
IPACT is a new, vibrant, multi-disciplinary community of researchers and research users developing affordable, sustainable, evidence-based, people-centric infrastructure systems solutions for improving social well-being and prosperity to level up coastal communities through resilient, net zero regeneration.
There is £500,000 available for Pilot Study projects Following her presentation Cllr Withington has been asked to discuss a further project in regard to community engagement in Coastal adaptation and Transition Research questions will be based around themes:
- Connectivity with the coast
- Inclusive infrastructure
- Maintaining and enhancing resilience
- Coastal region transport
- Nature-inspired, human scale engineering
Council Votes for Seal Safety
North Norfolk District Council members voted on seal safety and flying rings along the coast at a Full Council meeting.
A motion tabled by Cllr. Christopher Cushing sought to ban the use of flying rings and for the Council to repledge through the Safer Seals campaign its’ commitment to protecting seals along the North Norfolk coastline.
Cllr. Tim Adams, welcoming the motion, pointed out Councils do not have the powers to place an outright ban on flying rings, and the extent of Public Space Protection Orders did not cover marine life regarding flying rings.
An amendment was then agreed by Councillors, which sought to continue the Safer Seals campaign, with the Council’s Leisure team to work in conjunction with Friends of Horsey Seals and the RSPCA, and for the Council’s Foreshore Officers to engage with beach visitors, to educate them about the dangers.
Across beaches in the district, you can find posters which give guidance to beachgoers about how to act around seals, to protect them. It advises three behaviours – avoiding the use of flying rings, keeping dogs on leads, and avoiding getting too close to them.
Organisations and businesses are welcome to download the posters to display in their premises from the Council’s website.

Healthier Sheringham
Healthier Sheringham continues to grow and build partners and Networks. On the 18th February Sheringham Helps – A Community Fair and Fund Day will take place at the Lighthouse. There are over 50 partners booked in and support agencies celebrating the incredible support that there is in the town. A waiting list is now in place. In addition there is entertainment, activities, the Scout Climbing Wall our emergency services opportunities to chat with groups, find volunteering opportunities, have a health check, find out about new activities and interests for all ages. In addition the Lighthouse Café will be open, along with the soft play area and Threadbear Children’s Charity Shop. The Lighthouse as partners are providing the venue for which we are very grateful.
Warm Spaces for All – Sheringham is a project which has also grown out of the Healthier Sheringham Partnership. Partners have come together to develop a strategy for providing warm spaces for all in our community.
There is now an array of Warm spaces available across the town catering for all ages and interests. There is also a hot lunch available every day in the town in a warm space.
An added benefit of this project has been the friendships and connections which have been formed by people attending these warm spaces. 8 of our Warm Spaces now have 20-40 people attending them. Although they appreciate the heat the contact with others is now as important. Warm Spaces is looking to find a way that these can continue to stay open and benefit the community. Linked to this the Warm Spaces Strategy is working with North Norfolk community Transport to create community transport links which work with the other town facilities such as the Medical Practice to build in routes to get people door to door for Warm Spaces and appointments.
Anyone with a venue that would like to be part of this or is part of an organisation who can support with activities or volunteers is welcome to get in contact. Businesses who would also like to be involved as well in supporting the provision of warm spaces for those who are perhaps working from home. Again if you would like to know more or be involved please get in touch via healthiersheringham@gmail.com

Warm Homes grant available after successful bid
North Norfolk District Council, as part of the Norfolk Warm Homes Consortium, has been successful in a bid for £3.85 million of government grant to provide energy efficiency improvement works to homes occupied by low-income households within Norfolk.
The grant is aimed at supporting low income residents to reduce their energy bills and increase the thermal comfort of their homes through a subsidy towards increasing the energy efficiency of their property. NNDC have appointed Energy Officer Dulcie Walsh to help ensure those eligible for the scheme are able to access these important funds to reduce living costs. The Energy Officer will identify suitable properties and support owner-occupiers and landlords with applications for improvement works. Our aim is to ensure we maximize take-up for North Norfolk residents.
For homeowners, if your gross household income is £30,000 or less the grant will cover the cost of the works.
For landlords, you could get a two-thirds subsidy for works to improve the energy efficiency of your property (if your tenants are on gross household incomes of £30,000 or less)
This grant is aimed at residents who have properties with a low energy rating (EPC band E, F or G)
The grant will go towards the cost of works to better insulate your home, which can include loft cavity wall and external wall insulation if your property is suitable.
Also available under the scheme, properties can benefit from low carbon energy by replacing an inefficient heating system with a renewable air source heat pump.
