Could Newday Community
Projects Help You this
Summer?
Newday Community Projects is an
initiative run by local churches in
Norfolk in partnership with the
Newday youth event that takes
place at the Norfolk Showground
for one week each summer.
This initiative involves thousands
of young people travelling from all
over the UK and overseas, to be
part of social action projects, that
benefit local communities in
Norfolk. The aim of the Newday
projects is to partner the
enthusiastic young people
attending Newday with
community groups to support the
work they do in their community.
This also gives the young people
of Newday the valuable
experience of voluntary work and giving something back to the community.
For the last 4 years we have seen over 3000 young people each year go out across
Norfolk to work in community projects arranged by local community groups,
churches, the police and Norwich City Council. The Bowthorpe Community Garden is
one such project that the young people have supported over the past few years. Visit
www.thisislife.org.uk for further details on previous projects.
If a group of young people working on a focussed task for one or
more afternoons this summer would support your work then do get
in contact with us.
Projects will run this year from Tuesday 30th July to Saturday 3rd August
For more information please contact: Ailsa Magee - Newday Projects Coordinator

The café in Bowthorpe Main Centre has just
re-opened as “The Bowthorpe Café”.
Managed by local residents Chrissy Brightmore and Terry Reid, the café aims to put the focus back on community, with a friendly atmosphere and special events.
“The café at Bowthorpe always used to be a busy and happy place, full of character, chat and laughter” remembers Mrs Chrissy Brightmore, who has lived in Bowthorpe for more than twenty years. “Our aim has been to rekindle the café’s involvement with the local community, by offering home-made cakes, special events and cooking as healthily as we can.”
Mr Reid has worked in and around Norwich in catering for many years, and together with his partner Mandy, has been involved in the café for a number of years. “It’s great to see our local café being run by local people for local people. It will be a sad day if the café ever had to close due to people not using it.”
With the new injection of enthusiasm Mrs Brightmore and her team have brought to the café, that day is certainly not yet upon us. However, plans are afoot to make the café still busier.
“We will be putting on special events on a regular basis at The Bowthorpe Café” explained Mrs Brightmore, “especially for children during the holidays, like face-painting and art competitions, and reminiscence projects for the more mature customers, for which we would welcome donations of old photographs of Norwich, and in particular Bowthorpe and Costessey, to frame and hang on our walls.
“We will also be launching our ‘Triple-Gutbuster Breakfast Challenge’, whereby if you can eat three of our extra-large breakfasts, you don’t have to pay. (not even a bean!)”
But whilst this is a bit of fun, the café does promote healthy eating.
“Most of our fried food is prepared in fry-lite or dry-fried”, said Mr Reid, “rather than deep frying – we keep that just for chips and battered food. We also have staff who attend the local Weight-Watchers and Slimming World meetings, so we have personal experience of knowing what’s “syn-free”.
Nothing is too much trouble at the café, explains Mrs Brightmore. “We are always pleased when customers tell us what we do right, but we do like to know when we have got it wrong or if we can provide something that perhaps other eating establishments do not. For example we now provide aspartame-free squash with our Kids’ Meals, Soya Milk and fresh Semi-Skimmed or skimmed milk. You won’t find any UHT here!”
The café is also able to provide delivered take-away food to the local shops, Craftworkshops and Church Centre.
To sign-up for the “Triple Gut-buster Breakfast” challenge, or to place orders for food delivery if you are in the immediate vicinity of the Bowthorpe Main Centre, call 07859 882996 or 07917 863474. The café’s facebook page will be launching soon including photos and further details of our special events and you can also see who is your real local GUT BUSTER Champion.

The arrival of warmer weather creates a sense of general wellbeing as more people enjoy the opportunity to leave their houses and engage in outdoor activities. Please do not become a victim to the good weather.
I’m not referring to the use of sun cream to avoid sunburn. Every year we see a rise in crime during the warmer months. Simple precautions could
reduce this; remembering to close windows when leaving vehicles or houses, and remembering to lock shed doors after use.
With the warmer evenings we also see a rise in reported anti-social
behaviour. For this reason my team’s priority over the next month will be to address concerns on anti-social behaviour. You will see me and my team on foot active across the estate working hard with our partner
agencies to answer any questions you have on this.
You may have read in the newspapers about some of the achievements
by the Bowthorpe Policing Team over the last few weeks. There were several reported bag snatches in Bowthorpe, Earlham and Costessey. With your help we were quickly able to identify and arrest a man who has
been charged to court. On Monday a female was sentenced at Norwich Crown Court for racially aggravated assaults on three passengers on a bus in Bowthorpe. She received a four month imprisonment suspended
for two years.
We are always keen to hear any ideas for how we can be making a
positive difference to the community. Should you have information please contact us by dialling 101 or through crime stoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
On the 4th May we will be in the Wendene Shopping Centre between 2.30pm and 4.30pm. Further dates can be found on our Constabulary website where you can look at the latest news in the community. Please
come along and let me know what concerns or information you have on the estate.

What is the greatest enemy of a happy marriage?
Those who study marriage problems often conclude that the greatest enemy of a happy marriage is usually one of the following: money,
household management, personality clashes, sex, sharing household chores.
These, however, are not the greatest enemy of a happy marriage. The root
cause of an unhappy marriage is selfishness. Do couples go to war over money, sex and all the rest of it? Of course they do. But the root of all the discontentment in our homes, whether it is within marriage or not, is the
insatiable desire to have our own way. Selfishness is alive in each and every one of us.
The difference between us is that we go about getting our own way by
various means. Some of us explode into anger in order to get our own way. Others of us get our own way through silence, which can be just as destructive, or through bribery, etc. The ways are numerous. The
temptation to want our own way is very strong. So how do we overcome our selfishness?
The only way to overcome our selfishness is through self-sacrifice and self-
denial. Putting others first, however, doesn’t always come easily, but it is the way to true happiness.
Until next month,
Revd Mark Elvin
P.S. Have you thought about getting married but
feel it is too expensive? Why not enquire about a wedding at Bowthorpe Church. It’s cheaper than you think!

Plea for memories as Costessey library hits 50
Costessey library staff are appealing for the public to come forward with memo-ries dating back to 1963, when the library first opened on Breckland Road.
A 50th anniversary celebration is planned for Tuesday 21 May and every-one is invited to come along to share in a cake cutting ceremony at 3pm. There will be a chance to look at displays of how life has changed in the last 50 years and prizes will be awarded for a birthday card competition
for children and a quiz for the grown ups.
Guest of honour at the opening in1963 was local author Doreen Wallace. At the time Costessey had a population of just 7000 people. The library cost more than £7000 to build and started with 13,000 books. Back then the library held only novels and reference books. Nowadays you can borrow not only books but also films, audio books and console games. The library also lends storysacks to support children with early learning, and reminiscence kits for anyone who would like to share memories with an older loved one. Free access to computers is available and for anyone over 60 wanting to learn how
to use the internet and email, there are free courses. Parents with young children are invited to join in free early rhyme sessions and for anyone who finds it difficult to get to the library, volunteers will even deliver books direct to your door.
Community Librarian Rachel Harriss says they would love to add to the archive and hopes local people will come forward with their memories of either working at, or using the library over the past 50 years. Anyone with reminiscences or memorabilia, or who would like to join in the competitions, is invited to call in at the library on Breckland Road or phone 01603 742 669

Acanthus – New to
Bowthorpe Craft
Workshops Wendy Slade is one of very few local
artisans keeping the historical craft of
gilding alive in Norfolk, a practice that was at its peak when the renowned Norwich
School of Artists were at the height of popularity in the early 1800’s. Wendy gained a
degree in conservation and restoration at De Montfort University in Lincoln, and has
been gilding for nearly twenty years.
In 2009 Wendy started Acanthus Gilding and Restoration; she quickly outgrew her
original premises and decided to relocate to her customised studio and gallery at
Bowthorpe Craft Workshops. She chose the name Acanthus because it refers to a
traditional motif found in architecture and picture frames, based on the leaf of a large
ornamental plant. The Craft Workshops are the ideal location for Wendy because
she is among a thriving community of creative entrepreneurs. The peaceful
tranquillity of her studio is ideal for the levels of concentration required for her work. It
has a light and airy feel with an assortment of picture frames, mirrors and carvings in
various stages of renovation, along with a selection of mirrors for sale.
Wendy specialises in the restoration and gilding of antique mirrors and picture
frames; in addition she gilds furniture, interior plasterwork and exterior finials on
gates and weather vanes. Wendy says, ‘The best thing about my work is that no two
days are ever the same, one day I may find myself in a country house gilding
architectural plaster work and another day I might be evaluating a picture frame for
restoration or gilding a church memorial.’
As a student her craft even took her overseas to Montmartre, Paris where she was
trained in the finer points of water gilding and the conservation of Louis XIV – XV
salon furniture, under a master craftsman. More recently Wendy was invited to
Guangzhou, China to instruct students in the art of traditional European gilding
techniques. She thoroughly enjoyed this trip. ‘It was a wonderful opportunity to share
an ancient tradition with people from another culture, who equally appreciated the
technical skills needed to achieve a beautiful end result’ she explained.
Wendy is equally at home working on site up scaffolding or in her studio undertaking
the smallest of frame repairs. She firmly believes that maintaining heirlooms and
antiques is worthwhile. ‘My clients range from churches, museums and galleries, to
private collectors and the general public, and the one thing that they all have in
common is their recognition of the importance of preserving the past for future
generations.’
17
In addition, Wendy is available for public
talks and holds weekend gilding workshops,
the next of which will commence in June.
The spaces on her courses are very popular
and it is advisable to book as early as
possible to secure a place.
For gilding and restoration enquiries please
telephone Wendy on 01603 743077 or
07816 951752 or visit
www.acanthusgildingrestoration.t83.net.
If you would like to learn a little more about gilding techniques from Wendy Slade,
simply e-mail her via the website to register your interest in her gilding courses.

CHRISTIAN AID WEEK
MAY 12th—18th
PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY
Christian Aid’s vision is to bring an end to poverty around the world by tackling its root causes as well as its effects. We help people of all faiths and none. The following story shows how our support is helping people in Bolivia create their own solutions to poverty.
From the Rain Forests
Sara, 8, lives in Bolivia in South America. Sara's village is in a rainforest
next to a river. Her family grow fruit and vegetables and raise animals on
their land.
A while ago cattle
ranchers took some of
this land. They claimed it
was theirs and cut down
lots of trees to make
room for their animals.
This meant Sara's dad
had to go hunting for
food in the forest, for
the family to survive.
Luckily, a group that
Christian Aid works with
got involved. They told
the people where Sara
lives about their rights,
and now they know their
land can't just be taken
away from them.
19
Amazing multipliers
The group also gave
people animals they could
breed to make money.
'They help me with my
sheep and hens,’ says
Sara.
What's more, her sheep
aren't ordinary sheep,
they’re woolless! They
produce lots of milk and
have babies for more years than other sheep. This means more sheep to
share around, and lots of multiplying!
As well as the crops that Sara’s family used to grow, they now have lots of
cocoa trees.
They can sell young trees (called saplings) to other families who can then
grow their own cocoa crop too.
‘ Before I only ate rice,'
explains Sara. 'Now I eat all
these things we grow!'
And her
family can
sell their
sheep and
crops for
cash, too.
So Sara
and her
brother
will be able
to go to
secondary
school.
That's some
great multiplication!

ASHWELL COURT
Hello once again.
What a difference a little bit of sunshine makes! This week at long last we have seen the sun and it is a little warmer. Now the daffodils are blooming, the lawns are cut and our beautiful gardens at Ashwell Court are looking
lovely.
Despite the cold weather we have had a full and varied programme of events. At the end of March we enjoyed an evening of entertainment with Dick High. It was a lovely and very enjoyable evening and we all had a great time with some lively dancing and great sing-alongs. As usual, thanks
to Caroline and helpers, the buffet was enormous and very enjoyable.
The following week, on April 2nd, the Common Room was decorated and the balloons were out for a surprise birthday party for Eva, one of our long-standing residents, who was 100 years old on that day – she marked the event by again touching her toes when she entered the room! This was a truly magnificent occasion, with Pat James providing the entertainment. In honour of Eva, who comes from Ireland, there were several Irish songs and Eva joined in the singing and dancing and was serenaded by Pat James. It was lovely to have present the Lord Mayor of Norwich, in his full regalia, and his Lady Mayoress. We all had a terrific time and we all wish Eva many more years of good health and happiness. Once again the refreshments were great and so was the birthday cake with candles forming 100 for Eva to blow out. Eva’s son and family (including grandchildren and great grandchildren) also attended and the following weekend many of her relatives came over from Ireland, so the celebrations
continued for Eva.
Looking ahead, in April we are being entertained by Barry Tone, a new entertainer to us, although highly recommended, and then at the end of April the Dennis Light Orchestra are paying another visit and in May the
Simon Miller Sound are returning.
Well that’s all for now. Best wishes. Margaret

Bowthorpe Holiday Club
On the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of the last
week of the holidays a holiday club was run at the
church with Jane Cole running it. As my parents are
leaders I go there every year and I love it.
This year it was called show stoppers. On the first
day we did about creation and we had an activity to
do. The activity we did on the first day was a creation colarge. So basicly all the
teams, the green team, the red team, the blue team, the yellow yeam and the
purple team for the underfives with adults. (The other teams are for ages 5-11.)
it was basicly having an A3 sheet of paper and each team had to make a
different scean of creation. Meanwhile the purple team were busy making a big
tree. On the second day we did Christmas and the activity we did was each team
was given a different scean from the Christmas Story and we had to make
musical instrements and use instrements to make our peace sound better. Then
we acted it out or read our bits all the way through while the purple team acted
the whole story out.
On the last day we did the easter story and we made streamers and we made up
a sort of dance and we all had a diffrent part of a song called The Colours of
Salvation to make up a sort of dance to. While we were making the streamers
the purple team were singing songs in the back room and when we performed to
the song they all came and joined us in the main room. Also at the end everyone
got to take home their folder and work sheets that they had collected through
the three days and they got a book mark to take home.

News from St Michael’s VA Junior School.
Sarah Claflin - Senior Leader
Easter celebrations … Prior to the Easter break, children from St Michael’s visited the Bowthorpe Church to take part in an Easter Service delivered by Rev’d Mark Elvin. It was a wonderful service, where children took part by reading the Easter Story and singing hymns beautifully.
Fun-raising Funds!Children at St Michael’s
took part in their own ‘Comic
Relief Bake off’ and raised £328
for the charity.
Children baked cakes at home and
entered them into the school
competition, where they could win
baking goodies.
All the cakes entered were then
sold at break to raise money for
Comic Relief.
Congratulations to Ebony (Y4) who
was our overall winner and a big
thank you to all the children and
parents who supported !
World Down Syndrome Day
Thank you to all the children and
staff who raised funds for this
worthy cause by wearing silly
socks over trousers for the day.
St Michael’s Has Talent!
Children from 4E, with a little
help from Miss Eglington, put
on an amazing talent show
which was open to the public.
The whole event was organised
by the children, which
included auditioning the acts;
deciding upon the competitors;
advertising the event; selling
tickets and arranging the
smooth running of the show.
The show went off without a
hitch and only highlighted
further how talented children
at St Michael’s VA Junior are.
Well done to all the
acts and 4E for
putting on such an
amazing show!
