From the Editor
The Village Hall committee is to be congratulated on another really successful barbecue on Sunday 3 August. There was an very good turnout and a great feeling of community. The sun shone all day; the food, entertainment & company were excellent - what more could we ask for?
On a personal note, I should like to thank all those in the village who sponsored me on my Pink Ladies Tractor Road Run on Sunday 6 July. Unfortunately, the sun did not shine but that did not deter a great many people from lining the route in the rain. A special mention of Del & Celia Snaith who were at the start and finish of the run and even popped up at lunchtime! From friends, family and people of Needham I have raised an amazing £735 with a further £160 from Gift Aid - thank you for your generosity.
The Red Lion coffee mornings continue to be very well attended. In fact, I have heard that a local hairdresser has complained that all her clients are cancelling their Tuesday appointments in order to attend the coffee mornings! The money raised is partly going towards a defibrillator for the village. Please take time to read the enclosed leaflet which explains the importance of having easy access to a defibrillator in the village. For more information contact John Morrish through the Needham Link email address (needhamlink@gmail.com )
On behalf of all readers of The Link I should like to wish Harold Jefferson a very speedy recovery from the effects of his car accident. Best wishes to him and to Jean Youell who was also hurt in the accident.
Farewell to Sue Elsden of White House Farm. Sue will be leaving the village in September but we hope she’ll visit often. We wish her lots of luck in the future. White House Farm eggs are now available for sale in the Red Lion car park.
Space permitting, I will publish your letters or contributions to the Link - they would be most welcome. Please email them to needhamlink@gmail.com or pop them through my letter box at Mill Farm Cottage.

BBQ 2014
Your Village Hall Needs You - HELP!
The BBQ held on 3 August was a great success and was very well supported. The beautiful weather contributed to making this a very enjoyable afternoon with good food, drink & music.
The Committee would like to thank everyone who kindly donated raffle & tombola prizes and also those people who donated delicious desserts which sold like proverbial ‘hot cakes’!
A special thank you to the following people:
Dennis & Jenny for the use of their BBQ
Diane (renowned for her apple pies) for providing desserts & organising teas & coffees
Michael, from the Red Lion for the use of his marquee
We were delighted to see that Jean was able to join us following her recent car accident with Harold. It was with great difficulty that we managed to persuade her to rest & not try to sell raffle & tombola tickets.
Celia Snaith
Your Village Hall Needs You - HELP!
As you will appreciate there are regular jobs that need to be undertaken at the Village Hall during the course of a year. For example:
maintaining the grounds in good order
internal painting & decorating
internal maintenance - odd jobs
setting up the hall for events
The Committee members are now looking for volunteers from the village community to help them with the above. We should, therefore, be pleased to hear from anyone who would like to join the occasional working party to undertake various works. If we have enough volunteers, individuals would only be called on occasionally for help.
We should also like to hear from anyone who can offer specialist skills/equipment/tools and would be willing to provide assistance with, for example, gardening, electrical or plumbing work if the need arose.
If you are able to help or would like further information please contact either Del or Celia Snaith on 01379 851987
Parish Council News
The Parish Council meeting in the Village Hall held on Monday 28th July was preceded as usual by the Public Forum, attended on this occasion by a number of residents concerned at building activity on the disused nursery site. It was reported to the meeting that the current planning consent for a garden centre was about to expire on 10th August. The meeting considered it probable that the minimum amount of work required to qualify as a meaningful start on site and thereby ensure the approval did not expire was being carried out. (A subsequent inspection would seem to bear this out, as no further work has to-date been carried out).
I had also spoken previously by phone to a Senior Planning Officer at South Norfolk Council regarding rumours of proposals to build three residential units on the site. She made it clear that there is no planning application at the present as the site is outside the Needham Development Boundary and any such application would be refused. However, as part of a County wide consultation the site owner has applied to have the development boundary extended to include a plot fronting onto Burnt House Lane sufficiently large for a small residential development. This proposal will go to inspection at the end of the year. We shall not know if the owner has been successful until then.
On a more positive note our District Councillor Jenny Wilby announced that she has at her disposal a small budget for allocating funds to local Parishes. Generously she has made a contribution of £250 to the defibrillator fund, which she had read about in the Link.
The Parish Council Meeting also welcomed two Councillors from Brockdish Parish Council to explore a common concern over the prevalence of heavy good vehicles passing through the villages, the majority of which did not appear to have any legitimate business in the area. It was suggested that if HGVs are seen that do not appear to be visiting a local address the details of the company or owner should be noted and a letter written advising them that this is not an acceptable route. The Parish Council will be happy to do this on residents’ behalf if the details are passed on.
An application for Listed Building Consent for the conversion of a barn to residential use at 107 High Road was considered by the Council which recommended approval subject to conditions.
The next meeting will be held in the Village Hall on Monday 22 September at 7:30pm
Andrew Major, Chairman
Unfortunately, the wrong telephone number for the Chairman of the Parish Council was printed in the Link. It should have read 01379 852958. Apologies for any inconvenience this error may have caused.

Harleston U3A
SOS
Top of the “wish list” for several members of Harleston & District U3A is forming a ‘Singing for Fun’ group but we are in urgent need of a leader. Can anyone out there help? There will be support for the administration i.e. organising times, venue, contacts and materials. Now that the ukele group is up and running it would be wonderful to have our own U3A choir. If you are interested please contact Kim Poulton on 01986 788149.
Anyone for Table Tennis?
Is anyone interested in joining a table tennis club in the Village Hall?
This exciting new venture has been suggested by Stephen Miller. Details such as the time and day have yet to be decided but if you are interested please contact Stephen at interchelator@yahoo.co.uk or pop a note in his letter box at 62 High Road.

The Club Pairs competition which has commenced will have to be put on hold for the time being due to unforeseen circumstances.

Needham Townlands Trust
Long before the idea of the Welfare State needy people were helped by charities and charitable trusts some of which were called Town Lands Trusts. Many such trusts still exist today and still have a role to play even in the Welfare State. These trusts are obliged to function according to the purposes set down in their Trust Deeds.
Needham Town Lands Trust has a small but useful annual income. Usually applications must be of the sort which fall outside the scope of the Social Services and must be for the benefit of Needham people. Sometimes help has been given to enable an elderly person to visit a sick relative in hospital. The young can be helped as well. For example, if there is an essential school trip which the family really cannot afford. In fact, recently we have been able to help with the airfare for a Needham girl going to Kosovo on an aid project. Also we made a substantial contribution towards the cost of a new mini bus for the High School which will benefit Needham children attending the school. The commemorative seat in the Village Hall grounds was also paid for by the Trust.
If you think that the trust can help you or if you know of someone in the village who might qualify please contact Sylvia Miller on 852059 or Sally Nicholson on 852045. Applications are treated confidentially.
From 'Some Notes on Needham' by C Mather
“The Town Lands belonging to Needham originally consisted of several cottages and 24 acres of land mostly granted in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. The Town Lands Charity has been in existence for over 400 years. The conditions of the Trust are that one-fifth of the income is apportioned for church purposes in the parish and four-fifths for the common use of the town & parish of Needham and for the benefit of the poor. Of late this non-ecclesiastical share has been given mainly by vouchers for food, clothing and fuel to the pensioners of the parish.”
Jean Youell & Harold Jefferson
Following our car accident on Sunday 27 July I would like to say, on behalf of Harold and myself, a big thank you to all the people in the village & beyond for all their concern, offers of help, get well cards and phone calls received. Thank you also for taking me to see Harold so often. Harold is recovering well and making good progress after his operation.
We are fortunate to live in such a caring community and hope we shall both resume village life in the not too distant future.
Once again, thank you so much.
Jean Youell
Thank you
We would like to express our thanks and gratitude to all people who helped in the search to find Harley, our little black pug puppy.
We cannot thank each one of you individually but must say we were overwhelmed by people’s interest and help whether it was from friends, family, neighbours and even strangers. Eternal thanks to Lisa & Sam from the dogslost.co.uk team.
Also, thank you to all who kindly displayed notices of his disappearance. Without your help it would not have been possible to reunite Harley back home with our family.
Thanks you so much, again.

Hedges and Trees adjoining the Highway
We would like to take this opportunity to remind parishioners that land owners are responsible for their own boundary hedges and trees. This would include obstruction of footways and carriageways and the visibility of road signs and at junctions. Whilst main cutting back should be carried out in the winter months to avoid the nesting season, land owners should be mindful that vegetation can grow rapidly in the spring months. If this happens, owners do have a duty to ensure that this does not impact on highway users and take any necessary measures to keep growth trimmed back. Where an owner fails to do this they may be liable to a fine under Sections 154 and 137 of the Highways Act 1980 and may also be liable for any damage caused to the property of third parties.

The newsletter for the villagers of Needham
From the Editor
Summer has arrived in Needham and the BBQ season is upon us. Please keep Sunday 3 August free. Needham Village BBQ is always a really good day with excellent food and entertainment and this year will be no exception.
Before then I shall be taking part in the 11th Pink Ladies’ Tractor Run on Sunday 6 July. This is a charity event with funds raised going to Cancer Research UK which is a really deserving charity which receives no government funding for its research and its life-saving work depends on events like this.
If you would like to sponsor me please visit my fund raising page at www.justgiving.com/Helen-Major1 If you can’t donate online I can be contacted at Mill Farm Cottage in Mill Lane.
Go and watch the tractors (there will be over 140 this year) drive through Harleston - it’s an amazing sight. A big thank you to all who have donated so far.
Congratulations to John & Pauline Seaman of Brook Lane who this year celebrate their Golden Wedding Anniversary.
We are sad to report the deaths of Vivien Wythe & Geoffrey Martin.
If you would like to contribute an article or a letter to the Needham Link please email it to needhamlink@gmail.com or pop it through my letter box at Mill Farm Cottage. I’d love to hear from you.
Don’t forget we are online at www.needhamlink.co.uk If you are in contact with any people who have moved away from Needham tell them how they can keep up with village news.

Geoffrey Martin
Mrs June Martin and family would like to
thank villagers for their support through Geoff’s long illness and for the many
messages of sympathy they received following his death.
From the Archive
“Needham’s sub-postmaster, barefooted and wearing only pyjamas chased a burglar from his shop into the road, caught him and made a citizen’s arrest. Yesterday Mr Derek Buttle, 48, was given a pat on the back at Diss Magistrates’ Court.”
Do any Needham residents remember this?
Derek is still active in the village and a regular contributor to the Link.
“Cycling is like an interesting book - every pedal turns a page.”
“Friendship brings a harvest of happiness and joy.”

Topical Recipe
Gooseberry Fool
Our gooseberry bushes are just bearing fruit and this is what I shall be doing with some of them. The Pernod is a splash of luxury but it matches the tart flavour of the gooseberries very well.
Serves 6 -8
sugar 125g
water 25ml
gooseberries 450g
vanilla pod (1) - split in half down the middle
orange zest & juice (1)
Pernod 1 tablespoon
double cream 300ml - softly whipped
Melt the sugar with the water, add the gooseberries, vanilla pod and orange zest & juice and simmer gently for 15 minute with the lid on and a little faster for a further 10 minutes with the lid off. Set aside & add the Pernod. Blend the gooseberries until hey are fairly smooth. I like to keep the skins as this adds to the flavour but you can push them through a sieve if you prefer for a smoother finish.
Taste the purée for sweetness and then fold gently into the whipped cream. Serve with toasted flaked almonds.
