Covid vaccination progress at NNS🙌 Since we began our staff vaccination programme, we have gone on to administer the vaccine to over 7000 members of our staff (over 78%) so far.
This is in no small part to the incredible effort of everybody involved in our vaccination team - thank you.
We all need to stay at home as much as possible and to help, many shops and small businesses are offering delivery services. You can find details about which businesses are delivering in your area in your local Facebook group.

King Lear Arts Competition

The national creative arts competition for over 65s: Art, Poetry, Music, Short StoryTimeline PhotosThis week, our dedicated Clown Doctors continue on their virtual rounds. Today was their first of four online visits in partnership with Suffolk Refugee Support.

So, it looks as if our doors will remain shut to the public until the end of March at the earliest, following new regulations and information about the path the pandemic is taking.
That will mean a whole year that we have been unable to welcome audiences and a year of no live entertainment for the UK (aside from the odd window of opportunity in-between lockdowns and tiers). It's hard to fathom that so much time has passed but we ARE STILL HERE - and we are still plugging away in the background working to create better spaces for the public and the safest environment possible for when we can all return.
We will be contacting all ticketholders and acts up until the end of March over the next few weeks so please bear with us as we work through the shows (some of them rescheduled from last year!).
In the meantime, there are some links below for online content from your favourite providers, some free, some charged, including of course our very own Quay Online which has Poetry, History Talks, Plays and Music all for free to keep you engaged with live performance (even if recorded!). Please do consider submitting a donation if you can, using the button on that website, to help us with our efforts to re-open and weather the storm of the next year or so!
Keep safe, strong and focused on the future - we can't wait to see you all again as soon as we are able...

Current Vacancies: Freelan...We’re giving the public early notice that the Easter Fair will not take place again this year, as part of the national cause to support public safety, protect the NHS and save lives in response to the continued Covid threat.
We know that residents and visitors will fully understand that this is unavoidable, especially during a national lockdown and with our NHS and other public services under significant pressure. Public safety is the top priority and it is not possible to even contemplate organising a large-scale event during a national lockdown and with social distancing likely to be part of daily life for some time to come.
It is more critical than ever that we all continue to play our part by following the lockdown rules consistently to help control infections and minimise hospital admissions, to protect ourselves, protect others and protect Great Yarmouth.

Sonic boom heard over eastern England as RAF escorts civilian aircraft
bbc.in
A Typhoon aircraft "safely escorts" a civilian aircraft to Stansted Airport, an RAF spokesman says.🐺😡We’re calling for members of the public to report incidents of people carrying out ear cropping or arranging for dogs to be cropped abroad by calling the RSPCA on 0300 1234 999.
A recent spike in cases of illegal ear cropping points to the need for urgent action by the veterinary profession and the wider public to curb this worrying trend.
Ear cropping is illegal and it’s time for action to stop it happening in the UK.
British Veterinary Association - BVA have launched the #CutTheCrop campaign to stop the normalising of this mutilation.
