Bureaucracy stops Southwold amber hunt!


Bureaucracy stops annual amber hunt at Southwold!

An annual amber hunt attracting 400 children has been axed because of safety restrictions.

Children had paid £1 each to search the beach at Southwold, Suffolk, for 12 pieces of resin left by Robin and Astrid Fournel.

No child has ever been hurt in seven years but the Fournels were told they needed to complete a risk assessment, have extra marshals and £5,000,000 public liability insurance.

'Perhaps the coast is no longer safe due to the lack of sea defences! . . . So what's next? . . . Are they going to stop kids building sandcastles because they have not got planning permission?"

Frenze Beck

"We have embarked on the creation of a small wetland wildlife paradise on the western bank of the River Frenze in Diss, and this formerly unused ground has now been commended by the Environment Agency as part of its celebration of World Wetlands Day.

Frenze Beck was previously ecologically poor and overgrazed grazing marsh, within the floodplain of the river Frenze. It had become increasingly dry with peat build up and the remains of slubbing out works being deposited on the riverbank, reducing the ability of the river to flood onto the land".
