The North Norfolk Business Forum is a co-ordinated group run by businesses on behalf of businesses. The aim of the Forum is to represent the best interests of local employers and their staff and it will seek to boost the local economy in a variety of ways.

It will also seek to generate more business and income and most importantly it will provide local businesses with a strong collaborative voice when lobbying politicians and other decision makers regarding issues that directly affect themselves or the overall business community.

Norfolk RCC is an independent charity with three core roles:

Community Support- Helping Communities all the way from identifying needs to delivering solutions with friendly support and genuine expertise.

Developing Solutions- To research, consult and develop initiatives to solve the problems faced by our communities.

The Salvation Army is perhaps best known for its social welfare support, and we have lots of that going on in Anglia too - a home for retired people, a centre for the homeless, soup runs, day care centres for the elderly, and so on. Why not explore our pages to see just how busy we are?
