LOOKING AFTER LOCAL LYNX covers 10 villages in North Norfolk published every other month voluntarily produced by village members distributed to 1,200 households, pubs, churches, libraries, tourist information offices and shops estimated readership 2,000 plus 300+ on-line readers at www.locallynx.co.uk Until quite recently, all our production costs (mainly printing) were covered by donations we receive from Parish Councils and PCCs, and by advertisements. But, perhaps due to the trend towards online selling, our advertising revenue has decreased over the past few issues. Although our overall financial position is still healthy, we need to make up the shortfall. So we are turning to you, our readers, for a little help. Firstly, if you run a local business or service, please consider advertising. Secondly, we know that you value your Local Lynx and, if you would like to help ensure its long-term future, then please think about making a small donation. Six pounds a year would be £1 per issue; ten pounds a year would be a round sum, but please give whatever you feel is appropriate. Our bank details for making a direct BACS transfer are below or you may donate by cash or cheque. Please email lynxeditor @pobox.com to arrange this.

COUNTY COUNCILLORS’ NOTES …from Steffan Aquarone Climate Emergency I am now the Liberal Democrat spokesperson for the Climate Emergency and one of only two opposition members on the “Task and Finish” group on climate change on Norfolk County Council. This group, set up in the wake of the Extinction Rebellion protests that led to all three parties putting forward motions on the environment at the last full council meeting, is considering what Norfolk County Council can do to deal with climate change. I would welcome your views on this, and on the subject of the climate emergency more broadly, on steffan.aquarone.cllr@norfolk.gov.uk or 01603 327827. 4
