    Hickling Broad U3A Newsletter December 2017-February 2018 November Meeting: Great Ormond Street We had a bit of an ‘upside down” meeting this month - our speaker got lost and didn’t get to us until just after 3.00, so we kicked off with a brief discussion of the Committee’s proposals for a Cluster Group of local U3As and and the proposal to change the term of office of some of the Committee. (Papers about this were included in last month’s newsletter.) There will be further discussion and a vote on these at the next meeting. Jane - in the absence of the Chairman - then entertained us with a quiz and we had an early tea. David Taylor finally got to tell us about The Hospital for Sick Children in Great Ormond Street. Founded in 1852, Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) opened with just 10 beds in one of the rooms in Dr Charles West’s house, and was the first hospital in the UK to offer dedicated inpatient care to children. Today GOSH is over 165 years old and is one of the world's leading children's hospitals. Every day, 618 seriously ill children arrive at GOSH from all over the UK and every day, 53 children undergo life-changing operations. The hospital offers residential accommodation for parents and siblings of very sick patients, so families are able to stay together through the trauma of major illness. The hospital has a school as well as a large play staff, so life is able to go on as normally as possible for patients and their families alike.

Central North Norfolk Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

We are blessed in this country with ample rain - more than enough to sustain a healthy water environment and to meet human needs. But the rain falls unevenly, both in time and place. Our water resources, and the uses we make of them, must be managed sustainably to ensure that water is available, both for people and for rivers and wetlands, in the right quantities at the right times and places, and at the right cost. This is not a job for the National Rivers Authority (NRA) alone. Water undertakers, industry, farmers, environmental interests, planning authorities and many others have parts to play. What is needed is an overall framework within which all can work to the common good.
