Callum
Ringer
Callum grew up in Bodham, and
attended both Sheringham Primary and
High Schools. He moved into Sheringham
in 2013 but now lives back in Bodham
(owing to a lack of affordable housing!)
where he organises the Rock Bodham
charity music festival.
Callum has worked at the town’s
Burlington Hotel for 6 years, and now
combines this with studying a Geography
degree.
He is particularly interested in issues
concerning the environment and
affordable housing for local people.
In Sheringham he is keen supporter of
town events, particularly the Carnival and
1940’s weekend, which bring a great deal
of trade to the town. He also supports
the creation of a performance area on
lifeboat plain.
Noel
Gant
Noel was born in Beeston Road,
Sheringham, and attended Paston
Grammar school. He went on to serve
24 years with the Royal Air Force before
returning to Sheringham where he
established a community physiotherapy
service.
Noel served for several years as a Town
Councillor for Sheringham, including three
years as town mayor. During this time
he has worked to promote joint goodwill
with Sheringham and Cromer and was
joint president of the Cromer and
Sheringham crab and Lobster festival.
As District councillors Callum and
Noel will speak up for the town of
Sheringham and work to maintain the
town’s high standard as a place to
live and a place to visit.

We OPPOSE on-street parking

Callum and Noel are categorically
AGAINST any introduction of a permit
parking scheme and the introduction
of on-street car parking meters.
guarantee residents a parking space on
their road.
On-street parking meters threaten the
vitality of our town centre and will only
serve to detract tourists from our town.
We also opposed the introduction of
evening parking charges to NNDC car
parks, which were introduced (and later
scrapped) by the Conservative
administration.
This will be particularly felt by our
hotels and guest houses. The suggested
permit parking scheme for residents
would only serve to generate income for
council coffers and would not even
The Liberal Democrats abstained from

should be as affordable as possible,
particularly in the winter months, to
encourage shoppers to our town centre.

Kamikaze crossings.
Unnecessary,
expensive and
dangerous
One of the most talked
about issues on the door
step has been annoyance
at the huge expense spent
on the brick-weave
‘crossings’ in the town
centre.
Many felt the consultation
beforehand was very poor
(or non-existent) and, other
than Cllr Hannah, we have
heard very few people say
they are a good idea, or
money well spent.
There have been many
near misses as people,
those unfamiliar with
the area, cross over into
the path of an oncoming
vehicle.
We would support the
introduction of a proper
crossing (with a full and
comprehensive
consultation, of course) to
aid in pedestrian safety,
particularly to aid the
elderly and disabled to
cross safely.
Pedestrianisation
- worth a try?
With the very narrow
pavements in the town
centre, particularly down
by the amusement
arcades, we would
support a trial of
pedestrianisation for
the summer.
This could operate from
9am-6pm for example,
to allow for deliveries,
etc.
By having a season-long
trial, we could ascertain
the impact it has on the
town centre trade,
positive and negative,
and go forward one way
or another.
The aim is to make the
town centre as an
attractive place for
shoppers as possible.
Much of the traffic
driving through the town
centre drives down to
the seafront, up Gun
Street and back out of
town.
What do you think?

Are our chidren’s
play areas safe?
I met with our district
councillor Richard Smith to
discuss safety concerns on
The Esplanade play area,
particularly the gate
opening directly onto the
road.
He promised to go to
officers and discuss the
matter and get back to me.
I never heard a thing back
despite sending a couple of
reminders by email!
Nothing has changed.
I will work with NNDC to
improve safety here and, if
elected, I promise I will
actually get back to
residents when they raise
concerns!
