Persimmon Homes Development

This includes the removal of shared roads and garages that will actually fit a car into it. The document highlights the council's views on every plot on the development.
Speak up if you suspect domestic violence or abuse
If you suspect that someone you know is being abused, speak up! If you’re hesitating—telling yourself that it’s none of your business, you might be wrong, or that the person might not want to talk about it—keep in mind that expressing your concern will let the person know that you care and may even save their life.
Talk to the person in private and let them know that you’re concerned. Point out the signs you’ve noticed that worry you. Tell the person that you’re there for them, whenever they feel ready to talk. Reassure them that you’ll keep whatever is said between the two of you, and let them know that you’ll help in any way you can.
Remember, abusers are very good at controlling and manipulating their victims. People who have been emotionally or physically abused are often depressed, drained, scared, ashamed, and confused. They need help getting out of the situation, yet their partner has often isolated them from their family and friends. By picking up on the warning signs and offering support, you can help them escape an abusive situation and begin healing.
We now have 3 Defibrillators in the village.
They are located at:
- The Village Hall, Marlingford Road.
- The Rembrandt Restaurant, Dereham Road.
- Outside 73 Ringland Road, Lower Easton.
Without the fantastic support, we would not be in the position to purchase this life-saving equipment.
