  • Open Letter of Thanks to Maritime
    Tuesday 11th August 2020 Dear Lifesavers across North Norfolk The relaxation of coronavirus restrictions and the resulting boom in ‘staycations’ has provided a welcome boost to our economy. However, I recognise it has also led to an unprecedented rise in the number of incidents your crews and teams are responding to along the North Norfolk coast this summer. After talking to other emergency services, I know carrying out rescues in masks and other PPE, adjusting and adhering to new Covid-Secure processes, and the suspension in some cases of your regular training routines (with the attendant risk of ‘skill fade’) has placed considerable extra pressures upon you all. With this in mind, it is all the more remarkable that you continue to give your time, dedication, and skills – in many cases as volunteers – to answer the call to help those in distress. And I know that all this continues to be achieved in spite of a considerable decrease in fundraising income for the RNLI and independent lifeboat stations as a result of the lockdown. The NHS, rightly, has been at the centre of press coverage in recent months as its workers – who truly deserve our thanks – battle with coronavirus. But we have heard less about the heroes who risk their lives to help others at sea, on, and around our coastline. As the MP for our most beautiful North Norfolk constituency with nearly fifty miles of the most stunning coastline, I want to thank you all and ensure you are fully appreciated. I know from local reports that hardly a day goes by without you all being called upon for urgent support, so I write to express my heartfelt thanks to all our Coastguard Rescue Teams, lifeboat crews, and lifeguards for your vital work in keeping our residents and visitors safe, and in saving lives no matter when or how the call to action comes.

  • Seashield Protection at Cromer Pier
    SeaShield Protection at Cromer Pier As part of a recent project for repairing RNLI Cromer's supporting structure, Edwards Diving Services Ltd of Caerphilly has installed Winn & Coales SeaShield 100 System on nine of the tubular piles to the Lifeboat Station. Cromer Lifeboat Station is located at the end of Cromer Pier on the North Norfolk Coast in a very exposed location and is manned by volunteers. The location can be subject to severe wave action and fast flowing tidal currents. Sections of some of the previously installed protective wrapping system on the piles had deteriorated and needed replacement. The RNLI, the charity that saves lives at sea, commissioned Edwards Diving to undertake repairs during a period of relatively calm conditions. After removing the previous protective wrapping and marine growth Edwards Diving Services applied sections of SeaShield 100 protection to piles in the intertidal zones, one of the most aggressive environmental areas. As a system Seashield 100 consists of Denso Paste S105, Marine Piling Tape, all then encased by SeaShield jackets which are held in place by Smartbands wrapped and tensioned around the piles at close interval. Access to the site area beneath the Lifeboat Station was gained via Edwards Diving Services Aquadoc flexible pontoon system, configured to fit around individual piles requiring repair. Careful planning allowed the work to be undertaken over a number of days during a period of suitable Spring Tides coupled with calm weather conditions.
