Preserve the past for the future, but enjoy it now

Dear RL Reader
 
The Reepham Archive upstairs in the Bircham Centre has a large, varied and ever increasing collection of old documents and photographs, which our volunteers are working very hard to preserve. The collection is a valuable part of our heritage and a unique resource for anyone wishing to research the people and places that are our town’s history.
 

 

Another funeral on 12 May

The funeral of Mr Pask will take place in Reepham on Tuesday 12 May at 12.00. In this case it will be followed by burial in the cemetery. Therefore there is a possibility of congestion in Church Hill/ Market Place from 11.00 - 13.00; there may be mourners walking up School Road afterwards, and vehicles entering and leaving the cemetery after this time

Change of Chair ship at the Bircham Centre

On the 20th April, the Bircham Centre held its Annual General Meeting, Sue Ivins, Trustee for 6 years and Chair for 3, stood down and a new Chair was elected, in accordance with the Charity Constitution.
A presentation was made to Sue and she was thanked for her huge contribution to the Bircham Centre; for her devotion, hard work and support.
It was reported at the AGM Sue has been instrumental in moving the Bircham Centre forward, the Centre is now in a very strong position; during Sue’s period as a Trustee, the accounts have never looked better.

Insecure headstone at Reepham cemetery

Another memorial has become unsafe in the Whitwell Road cemetery. It is by the empty green area near the seat at the centre, and now has red and white hazard tape. Please take care in this area. The memorial is to Walter Alford 1933 and Henrietta Alford 1961. Someone still leaves flowers on this grave.
 
Please contact the town clerk if you have any information as to next of kin or family; otherwise the stone will need to be laid flat.
