Andrew MacPherson, chair of local charity the Coddenham Centre, said the way the village s “vibrant community” has come together during Covid-19 is an inspiration.
He is looking forward to the centre fully reopening under the government’s roadmap, and it is offering 20 different activities – ranging from tennis, lawn bowls and badminton to yoga and Pilates.
The centre also co-founded the Coddenham Community Response Group, which has done everything from distributing goodwill packages to providing a telephone tree” support service during coronavirus. It s a great example of how, with a bit of leadership, a community can unleash a lot of positive energy together,” Andrew said.

Four Norfolk Christians recognised by the Queen Four Norfolk Christians have today been recognised by Her Majesty the Queen for their service to the community in the centuries-old Royal Maundy Money tradition. The giving of Royal Maundy Money by HM The Queen is a long-established tradition. The name “Maundy” and the ceremony itself derive from an instruction of Jesus at the Last Supper that his followers should love one another. This symbolic act of giving a gift of money in small purses is a ceremonial living out of that Christian care. There are as many recipients as there are years in the sovereign’s age. At the ceremony, the monarch hands each recipient two small leather string purses. A red purse contains ordinary coins, while a white one contains silver Maundy coins, amounting to the same number of pence as the years of the sovereign’s age.
