Anglian’s
expert Scaffolding team is helping this year’s Norwich Science Festival to make
a grand entrance in The Forum.
Anglian has
erected a three metre by three metre scaffolding archway to welcome visitors into
the Explorium – the main hub for Norwich Science Festival’s week-long programme
which features more than 200 talks, shows and exhibitions.
The archway is covered
in artwork designed by local agency DesignPod and printed by CIM Signs &
Graphics. Anglian has also constructed three large tables using scaffolding inside
the Explorium, in preparation for hands-on activities for children during the
festival.
Wayne Sampson,
senior scaffolding commercial manager at Anglian, said: “Scaffolding provides a
more sustainable means of creating the dramatic entrance and workspaces Norwich
Science Festival wanted, which is also in-keeping with the eclectic nature of
this event. As a local company, we are delighted to do our bit to support for
this fantastic event in the city.”
Danie Hadley,
marketing and communications manager at Norwich Science Festival, said: “We are
grateful for all the local companies who are supporting this year’s event,
which is our ninth annual Norwich Science Festival. Huge thanks to all at
Anglian for making this happen, it looks absolutely brilliant in the Atrium at
The Forum – a real showstopper!”

‘Abandonment’ and ‘fly-grazing of horses’ are growing problems for landowners in the UK and have both recently been the subject of extensive debate across the country. This article outlines just some of what you need to know about the subject as a landowner.
‘Abandonment’ is when a horse is left somewhere permanently or for a sufficient amount of time to allow it to end up suffering unnecessarily. ‘Fly-grazing’ is the unlawful grazing of horses on public or private land without the permission of the landowner or occupier. The horses may or may not have been abandoned by their owner; they could have been brought onto the land for free pasture or simply left there following the expiry of a rental agreement.
Fly-grazing is a serious problem for landowners, not only does it pose welfare problems for the horses and interfere with the enjoyment of the land, it can also have serious legal implications for the landowner.
If you find a horse on your land, it is important that you obtain legal advice as soon as possible. As a landowner there are a number of issues you will need to consider including your potential criminal liability arising from any welfare issues, your statutory duty of care towards any person entering your land and the strict liability imposed should a horse escape. An understanding of the law is needed to ensure the correct steps are taken to remove the horse, including The Animal Welfare Act 2006, The Occupiers Liability Acts of 1957 and 1984 and The Animals Act 1971.
Currently, there is no specific legislation in place designed to tackle the removal of abandoned or fly-grazing horses but legislative change may be on the horizon given that a private member’s bill (the Control of Horses Bill) recently passed its second reading and will soon be examined by a panel of MPs.
In the meantime, landowners have two options for removing the horses: obtaining a Court Order for their removal or exercising the right to detain straying animals. The right to detain involves attaching an Abandonment Notice to the land in question demanding that the horses are removed within 7 or 14 days failing which the landowner will do so himself. However, caution must be taken before a landowner exercises this right as it is only available when the animals are clearly not ‘under the control of any person’. The Property Litigation Team at Leathes Prior will be able to advise you on which option is more appropriate in your circumstances, what the process entails and assist you to effect the lawful removal of the horses.
As a landowner, there are some practical steps you may wish to take to minimise the risk of finding a fly-grazing horse (or other livestock) on your land:
1. Secure the land by means of adequate fencing and locked gates; 2. Put barricades in place to prevent unlawful access; 3. Dig out fenced-off ditches to prevent access; 4. Plough up empty pockets of land or use it in some other way rather than leaving large grassed areas; 5. If you are renting the land make sure you have a written agreement in place; and 6. Consider obtaining insurance that covers fly-grazing.
If you find a horse (or other livestock) grazing on your land without permission there are some important things you need to bear in mind:
1. Be careful and do not approach the animal unless necessary; 2. To avoid any criminal liability as a result of welfare issues, you should carry out an immediate visual inspection of the animal’s wellbeing; 3. If there appears to be any health issues you should contact Trading Standards, the RSPCA and/or World Horse Welfare and request their assistance to remove the horse – please note these organisations will only help where there are welfare issues; 4. Report the incident to the police (and ask them to provide you with an incident number) and your local authority to see whether they can provide any useful information or assistance; and 5. You should obtain legal advice immediately.
If you have any questions regarding fly-grazing or if you find a horse on your land, please do not hesitate to contact Darren Bowen or Sabina Haag in the Property Litigation Team on 01603 610911.
Welcome to 2025, folks! 🎉 While everyone’s talking about their new gym memberships and diet plans, let’s chat about something that should definitely be on your New Year’s resolution list: keeping your website secure. Don’t worry – I promise to make this less painful than your first workout of the year!
Why Website Security Isn’t Just for the Tech Nerds
Here’s a fun fact: every 39 seconds, there’s a hacker attack. That’s faster than most of us can decide what to watch on Netflix! And guess what? They’re not just targeting the big players anymore. Small and medium businesses are like that last cookie in the jar – surprisingly attractive to digital troublemakers.
1. The Basics: Your Website’s Front Door
Think of your website security like your home security. You wouldn’t leave your front door wide open while on vacation, right? (If you would, we need to have a different conversation!) Your website needs the same basic protections:
HTTPS encryption (that little padlock in the browser bar – it’s not just for show!)
Strong passwords (and no, ‘password123’ doesn’t count)
Regular updates (like changing your smoke detector batteries, but more often)
2. The Not-So-Secret Weapons
Now, let’s talk about some serious protection that doesn’t require a PhD in computer science to understand:
First up: Firewalls. Think of them as your website’s bouncer – checking IDs and keeping the troublemakers out. They’re like that friend who always has your back at parties, but digital and way more reliable.
Next: Regular backups. Because sometimes bad things happen to good websites. Having a backup is like having a time machine for your site. Problem occurs? No sweat – just roll back to when everything was working perfectly. It’s like ctrl+z for your entire website!
3. The Human Factor (Plot Twist: It’s Usually Us!)
Want to know the biggest security threat to most websites? It’s not some genius hacker in a dark room (sorry to burst that Hollywood bubble). It’s usually just… us. Regular people making regular mistakes:
Using the same password everywhere (we know you do it, stop it!)
Clicking on suspicious links (that free iPhone offer is probably not real)
Skipping updates (yes, those annoying popup messages are actually important)
Real Talk: What You Actually Need to Do
Okay, enough scary stuff. Here’s your actionable, no-fluff checklist for 2025:
The “Do This Now” List:
Get SSL certification (that’s the HTTPS thing we mentioned)
Set up automated backups (because you’ll forget to do it manually)
Use a password manager (your brain has better things to remember)
Enable two-factor authentication (yes, it’s annoying, but so is getting hacked)
The “Set and Forget” Items:
Regular security scans (like health checkups, but for your website)
Automatic systems (because manual updates are so 2024)
Activity monitoring (knowing who’s doing what on your site)
When to Call the Pros
Look, we get it – not everyone wants to become a security expert. That’s totally fine! It’s like car maintenance – you don’t need to be a mechanic, but you should know when to take it to the shop.
Here’s when you definitely want professional help:
Setting up initial security measures (getting it right from the start)
After noticing suspicious activity (better safe than sorry)
When planning major website updates (prevention is better than cure)
The Bottom Line
Website security doesn’t have to be scary, complicated, or something you lose sleep over. With the right setup and a bit of common sense, you can keep your digital home safe and sound in 2025 and beyond.
At Wisecoda, we take security seriously (but we don’t take ourselves too seriously – life’s too short for that!). Want to make sure your website is fortress-level secure without the fortress-level complexity? Let’s chat! We promise to explain everything in human language, not tech speak.
P.S. Fun fact: It took you longer to read this article than it takes most hackers to crack a weak password. Just saying… maybe it’s time for that security upgrade? 😉

East Anglian grant programme, Supply Chain innovation for Offshore Renewable Energy (SCORE), has awarded funding to Norwich based Norcom Technology. The SCORE programme offers East Anglian SMEs an exciting opportunity to access funds to drive forward innovative products and processes that benefit the region’s offshore renewable sector’s supply chain.
The £20,000 grant is to enable Norcom, which develops software and hardware for navigation and hydrographic survey systems, to develop a desktop and web based application which maps the seabed around the east coast of England. Their eChart Service will be created using data derived from material supplied by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office and will be the most advanced seabed map ever created for the North Sea.
The service will show the precise location of all the current wind farms and proposed future developments, as well as including data pinpointing the staggering 20,000 wrecks on the region’s seabed.
This innovative application will be the equivalent of Google maps for the seabed. Users will even be able to do ‘passage planning’ where it will allow them to enter a destination and will provide them with a route and timings.
Norcom has previously created similar PC based software but this new service marks a real step change for the sector. This also offers companies the opportunity to upload it and overlay additional data to create a bespoke map of the seabed to meet their precise requirements.
Norcom will receive chart and hydrographic data from France, Norway, Germany, Denmark and other European countries to overlay onto the map. Norcom’s eChart service is due to be completed by September and the data will then be updated on a three monthly basis.
Norcom is planning to further develop the program to be a responsive web based system and in the long term, develop a mobile app version.
Phil Harris, Managing Director of Norcom Technology says: “Receiving funding from the SCORE grant programme was fundamental in bringing this project to fruition. It has enabled us to employ a dedicated member of staff to work on the data and web design elements, both of which are critical if we are to complete the service in the timeframe we have set ourselves.
“The funding application process was very straightforward and the monthly approval meeting ensured a quick response, which was really beneficial in enabling us to progress our plans.”
The SCORE programme delivers a £2.5 million funding investment through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). SCORE grants range from £2,500 up to a maximum of 30% of the project’s eligible costs, or £50,000, whichever is the lower.
Richard Salmon, project manager and business adviser for SCORE says: “It is great to see so much innovation taking place literally on our doorstep. Norcom’s service really demonstrates how SCORE funding can make projects happen, whilst at the same time further highlights the region’s reputation as the leading UK force within the offshore renewable sector.
“We know many SMEs and start-ups can be deterred from applying for funding because of the perception that grant applications are complex and time-consuming. That’s not the case with SCORE. Our team of industry specialists are on hand to support companies and start-ups through the process by finding out more about their innovative ideas, evaluating funding viability and then assisting with the development of a funding business case.
“We hope as we announce further recipients of SCORE funding other potential recipients will be encouraged to contact us. Our region’s offshore renewable energy sector provides East Anglian businesses with a unique landscape on which to develop innovative ideas, processes and services and recipients of SCORE funding will all help strengthen the area’s capability for innovation.”
To contact SCORE’s business advisers, please call 01502 563368 or email orbisenergy@nwes.org.uk
SCORE is based out of specialist offshore renewables innovation and incubation centre, OrbisEnergy, owned by Suffolk County Council and managed by NWES.
Employment law is one of those legal disciplines that just will not relent. Change is constantly on the horizon and as such, it can be hard for organisations to keep abreast of what’s new. The issue is that employment law policy changes make headlines as they directly affect the tens of millions of people currently in work in the UK. With an election around the corner next spring, policies relating to employment law are likely to come thick and fast.
In January’s HR Forum, Cozens-Hardy LLP will cover the areas of employment law that have been and are making headline news. Some of the topics we will be exploring are set out below. Don’t forget that this time we have kept a slot open for delegates to suggest their own burning topic they would like us to expand upon.
Zero-hour contracts
There is currently no statutory definition of a ‘zero-hour contract’ in employment law. It is generally understood to be an employment contract between an employer and a worker, which means the employer is not obliged to provide the worker with any minimum working hours, and the worker is not obliged to accept any of the hours offered. It is accepted that someone on a zero-hour contract will have ‘worker’ status, which does not bring as many rights under English & Welsh employment law as the gold-star ’employee’ status. However, the way in which the employment relationship develops may result in the worker gaining ’employee’ status, regardless of what is written on paper and may persuade an Employment Tribunal that the worker in fact has many more rights available to them. The zero-hour contract is typically seen in industries such as retail and catering, and is typically used to fill gaps in rapidly fluctuating workforces. Zero-hour contracts are a hot issue politically and we can expect the major parties to use this as a powerful tool in the run-up to spring’s election campaign.
Sharing parental leave and pay
From December 2014, new regulations will come into force whereby parents can choose a more flexible approach to parental leave following the birth of their child or the placement of an adoptive child. A mother will be able to opt to end statutory maternity leave earlier, in order for her partner or the child’s father to start Shared Parental Leave, this scheme bringing an end to Additional Paternity Leave. There are certain eligibility requirements for the Shared Parental Leave scheme, namely a continuity of employment test and an employment and earnings test. This scheme will also only be applicable to babies born or adoptive children placed on or after 05 April 2015, meaning that many HR departments will likely receive notifications of intention to partake in the scheme from employees in as early as December 2014. There will also be a new pay scheme for those on Shared Parental Leave.
Holiday pay to include overtime
The recent decision by the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) in the conjoined cases of Bear Scotland Ltd v Fulton & another; Hertel (UK) Ltd v Wood & others; and Amec Group Ltd v Law & others was widely publicised in the press in November 2014. The effect of the EAT’s decision in this case is that commission and overtime should now be taken into account when an employer calculates holiday pay for its workers. There are certain issues surrounding the decision, including whether or not it applies only to holiday pay provided for by the EU Working Time Regulations 1998 or whether it also applies to bank holidays provided for by UK legislation, meaning that the case is likely to be appealed for clarity’s sake. There is also uncertainty about the evidence that employees may have to provide to employers to show that overtime is essential to their job. Business Secretary Vince Cable is establishing a taskforce to assess the effect of this decision upon businesses and policy may be implemented as a result of this.
Social media and employment law
Increased social media presence inevitably comes with increased personal technology presence in the workplace such as smart phones, laptops and tablets. There are challenges in dealing with social media in the workplace and these will vary in different kinds of organisation. It can affect communications among managers, employees and job applicants, how organisations promote and control their reputation, and how colleagues treat one another. It can also distort what boundaries there are between home and work. There have been increasing reports of disciplinary action and sometimes even dismissals as a result of employee behaviours on social media even when away from the workplace. How is it best to approach these issues and how should misuse of social media or workplace internet be dealt with?
ACAS early conciliation
Since May 2014, it has been mandatory for individuals wishing to bring a claim to the Employment Tribunal to first inform ACAS and start the process called ‘early conciliation’. This process replaces the previous ‘Pre-Claim Conciliation’ procedure and is a free service that stops the clock on employment claims that are time-limited, such as claims for unfair dismissal, workplace discrimination and unpaid holiday pay. An ACAS conciliator is assigned to the case with the purpose of looking to settle the matter between the parties and away from the Tribunal in a timely and non-costly manner. If settlement cannot be achieved in the early conciliation period, an early conciliation certificate is issued and the case can move forward to Tribunal.
Extended right to request flexible working
From June 2014, every employee who fulfills a minimum period of service has the right to request flexible working. Employers must consider and decide upon requests within three months of receiving the request and must have a sound business reason for rejecting the request. For some organisations, the duties to meet with the employee, consider their request and the impact that changes may make to existing employees and their organisation may seem unduly onerous. However, it is vital to be aware that if an employer fails to deal with a flexible working request in a reasonable manner, the employee is legally entitled to make a claim to the Employment Tribunal.
We will also have an open-floor session where delegates will be invited to ask about topics of employment law that are pertinent to their own organisations.
To keep you and your organisation up-to-date with the latest employment law developments so as to stay informed and prepared, come along to the next HR Forum presented by Cozens-Hardy LLP on Wednesday 28th January 2015 at Dunston Hall.
Global-leading energy services firm Proserv is celebrating after winning two prestigious awards in recognition of the firm’s outstanding business success and engineering and manufacturing capabilities.
Proserv scooped Business of the Year and Great Engineering & Manufacturing Company of the Year at Friday’s (21st November) Spirit of Enterprise Awards 2014, a high-profile awards ceremony celebrating excellence in business and enterprise in Great Yarmouth.
David Lamont, Proserv CEO, said: “We are very pleased to receive the two awards from Great Yarmouth Borough Council, a great testament to the talent, expertise and hard work of the entire Proserv global team, and especially the team based in Great Yarmouth which is a leading centre for the development, design and manufacture of some our key industry leading high technology products and services.
“We have much to look forward to as a team and through continued investment in our people, facilities and technologies, 2015 looks set to be an even greater year for Proserv.”
The awards recognise the outstanding year Proserv has enjoyed. During 2014 the company won multi-million pound contracts for work in both the Gulf of Mexico and Brazil with all manufacturing work for both deals being carried out at Proserv’s Great Yarmouth facilities.
In June, Proserv announced plans to recruit a further 40 people by the end of the year in Great Yarmouth. This will see the firm employing more than 330 people across its four sites at Gapton Hall Industrial Estate.
In addition to large scale contracts and increasing its workforce, the company’s base in Great Yarmouth has a continual focus on developing new technology. Earlier this year, the team completed and released game-changing technology for subsea control and monitoring communications (Artemis 2G), reinforcing Proserv’s rapidly-expanding subsea capabilities and world-class engineering expertise. A roadshow targeting key conferences worldwide to promote Artemis 2G was also organised and led by senior engineers from Great Yarmouth.
The Spirit of Enterprise Awards, which were held in Great Yarmouth Town Hall, recognises entrepreneurial success in the town focusing on and rewarding the achievements through innovation, entrepreneurial thinking and sheer determination of businesses of all sizes and from every sector.
This award wins come just weeks after one of Proserv’s promising young employees, Marnie Toal, won the Oil & Gas UK Award for Apprentice of the Year.
Proserv, which has a global talent pool of more than 2,200 people and operates through 31 operating centres based in 11 countries, has a 40-year track record in delivering life-of-field solutions.
The firm recently announced it had signed a definitive agreement to be acquired by major US private equity investor Riverstone Holdings LLC. Proserv will continue to operate as an independent company under the terms of the deal.

A Norfolk based Insurance Brokers has been voted ‘General Supplier of the Year’ in the prestigious Landlord & Letting Awards for the second year running.
The awards, which were introduced in 2009 with the aim of recognising and rewarding excellence and contribute to raising standards in the private rented sector, were held in Coventry and hosted by TV favourite Tommy Walsh. Alan Boswell Group, whose head office is in Norwich, beat off stiff competition to win the award at the ceremony.
The ‘General Supplier of the Year’ category is a fiercely fought contest with finalists from across the country in the running for the award which recognises the ‘best of the best’ when it comes to providing services to the sector.
Steve Cox, Account Executive at the Group, was in attendance when the award was made and commented: “We’re absolutely thrilled to have kept hold of this coveted Award. We work very hard to ensure that we provide outstanding customer service and to be recognised for this effort makes it all worthwhile.
“We have over 17,000 landlord clients throughout the UK and they all rely on us when it comes to their property insurance. It’s vital that those clients receive the very best service whether it is when they purchase their policy or if the worse happens and they need to make a claim.
“Every landlord receives either a dedicated account executive or telephone access to our specialist landlord’s team meaning there is someone at the end of a phone they can talk to. It is an important factor in delivering a level of personal attention that can be sorely lacking with some providers.”
Jo Ensby, marketing manager for AEP Media who organise the Awards, commented: “The Landlord & Letting Awards are the premier private rented sector awards in the UK; it’s great to be able to recognise and reward the best in the industry. The standard of entries gets more phenomenal year on year, so Alan Boswell Group has done phenomenally well to win their category.”
Alan Boswell Group is a top 20 UK Independent Insurance Broker* and Financial Planners with six offices across the Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and London.

Complete the Survey – open until 28 February 2025. Your responses will directly contribute to shaping the North Sea’s transition.
Thomson and First Choice are doubling capacity at Norwich International airport throughout the 2015 winter season with the addition of a second weekly flight to Tenerife.
The move to introduce the extra flight is part of the UK’s largest tour operator’s strategy to ensure customers across the UK can fly from their local airport and stay at the best hotels in some of the most exciting destinations. This follows on from the recent announcement of the introduction of a weekly service to Menorca every Saturday for summer 2015.
This second weekly flight to Tenerife means local holiday makers will have the opportunity to choose varying durations including 3, 4, 10 and 11 night stays in addition to the traditional 7, 14, 21 and 28 nights which have been available for many years.
Tenerife is home to some of Thomson and First Choice’s most highly scoring flagship hotels including; the five star Thomson Sensatori Resort Tenerife, which gives customers a luxury holiday experience, featuring world class spas and gourmet dining and the First Choice Holiday Village Tenerife which delivers everything a family could want in one place – great entertainment, food, kids clubs and lots of activities to keep the whole family occupied.
Andrew Bell, the airport’s Chief Executive, said “We are thrilled that Thomson and First Choice have announced the additional flight to Tenerife next winter. This decision further demonstrates their commitment to the airport and reflects the high level of demand from customers wishing to fly from Norwich.”
Karen Switzer, Director of Aviation Planning said of the move: “Increasing our capacity from Norwich Airport demonstrates our commitment to the region. Following the success of the introduction of the Menorca route from Norwich this summer and similar routes across a number of regional airports, we know that the demand is there. “Expanding access to our portfolio of destinations and hotels as well as offering more frequent flights and flexible durations is a key part of our overall strategy. We hope that by adding an extra weekly flight to Tenerife it will enhance the holiday experience for our customers who will now have greater access to some of our key properties.”
