A care home in north Norfolk is to close following concerns about standards and safety.

Pine Heath Care Home in High Kelling, near Holt, was inspected by the Care Quality Commission, external (CQC) in November. During their unannounced visit, inspectors found staff relying on portable heaters to warm parts of the building, not enough hot water for residents to wash and several rooms smelled of urine.

Norfolk County Council says the owners of the home have decided to close it at the end of this month, and a team of social workers is working to find suitable accommodation for all 26 residents.

It adds that at no point will anyone be left without the appropriate level of care.

The home had 15 residents on council contracts, and 11 whose bills were being paid for privately.

After the driest winter for 20 years, and one of the driest Aprils on record, farmers are concerned that another week without rain could be critical for early crops.

Andrew Blenkiron is the manager of Euston Estate, on the Norfolk/Suffolk border near Thetford. 

Their 100 acre field of carrots have been in since the middle of January, and already he's had to apply two inches of water.

The estate has built two large reservoirs (one is pictured) to help manager water resources - and each takes several years to gain planning permission. 

"We don't know if we're going to get a dry summer, but if we do and we move in to a second really dry winter, then we have real concerns because we'll have limited ability to fill our reservoirs through next winter."

Farmers talk of a five year cycle - 2012 saw a hosepipe ban in this part of the world followed by record levels of rain - it was known as the wettest drought in history. 

In addition to the online support group for dads of youngsters with eating disorders, Beat will be expanding its services.

From next week, the Norwich-based charity, external will include two groups for those supporting someone with an eating disorder, including one for mothers. 

There'll also be individual groups for those affected by anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating disorder/emotional over eating.

The charity, which was formed in 1989, says eating disorders are serious mental illnesses, with no single cause or reason why someone develops it. It affects at least 725,000 people in the UK, from all ages and gender.

Eating disorders can be fatal - with anorexia having a higher mortality rate than any other mental illness. 

The condition is treatable, adds Beat - the sooner someone gets the treatment they need, the more likely they are to make a full recovery.

UKIP has decided not to field a candidate in North Norfolk where Liberal Democrat Norman Lamb is defending a majority of 4,043.

The party is asking the 8,300 people who voted for them last time to "lend" their votes to the Conservatives in order to unseat Mr Lamb.

UKIP has announced "non-aggression pacts" against certain Brexit-supporting Conservatives like Stewart Jackson in Peterborough and Philip Hollobone in Kettering, but this is thought to be the first time it has decided not to stand in order to unseat an anti-Brexit candidate.

You can't fail to spot these big "N's" if you go anywhere near the Forum. 

They're advertising the Norfolk and Norwich Festival, external, one of the oldest surviving festivals in the UK.

It's now one of the big four UK international arts festivals, attracting artistes both local and from across the world.

This year's packed programme of events include circus, dance, theatre, visual arts and the Spiegeltent.

The fun begins on Friday, and continues at various locations across the city, before drawing to a close on Sunday, 28 May.

A weekly online support group is to be launched for fathers of people with eating disorders, by the Norwich-based Beat charity, external.

Spokeswoman Caroline Price says the experience of caring for a child with an eating disorder can differ for dads compared to mums, adding that often fathers find it easier to speak openly with other dads about the challenges they're facing.

Nick Pollard's daughter Lizzie, who had an eating disorder as a teenager, was helped by Beat's online support group, but he says there's was nothing specifically for him. 

The new leader of the Labour group on Norfolk County Council has been speaking about his plans.

Steve Morphew, who was elected last night, paid tribute to former Labour leader George Nobbs, praising him for his work over the last eight years.

Following last week's local elections, the Conservatives gained overall control of the county council, winning 55 out of 84 seats. 

Mr Morphew says Labour will be working hard - getting out to communities, talking to ordinary people and making sure they get a fair deal by challenging those in charge. 

He said: "If you look at the state of adult services, children's services over a number of years, transport services in Norfolk leave a lot of rural areas isolated, unreliable bus transport, we've not had much change in the way the train system between Norwich and London is working... there's a whole plethora of things that are not right, things we can take up and argue on behalf of the people of Norfolk."

Mr Morphew took over as leader of Norwich City Council in 2006. Then, he says, it was "pretty dysfunctional" but is now "efficient, effective and prize-winning".

We've had one of the driest Aprils on record.... with under half the expected amount of rainfall for the month.

It follows one of the driest winters for 20 years... BBC East weather forecaster Dan Holley's tweet shows how it compares to average years.

On her visit to Norwich yesterday, the Prime Minister made a pledge to provide more mental health support for young people in Norfolk's schools, with trained staff in all primary and secondary schools.

Stuart Rimmer is the chief executive of Great Yarmouth College, external, where they run a wellbeing scheme for pupils.

Mr Rimmer says over half of mental health issues start before the age of 15, so to resource primary and secondary schools is a good idea, but more detail is needed on what training people need and how it would work.

His school has spent a lot of money on training staff, but he says this doesn't mean they have sufficient clinicians.

He adds that spending cuts have affected students' mental health.

With one month to go to the general election, the Prime Minister was on the campaign trail in Norfolk yesterday.

Theresa May visited the new aviation academy at Norwich Airport, which opened a few months ago, to get across the Conservatives' message on jobs.

Our political reporter Andrew Sinclair tells us over the last year there's been a big push to provide highly skilled training. With Brexit looming there may be a need for less reliance on labour from abroad in the future, as long as there are enough British people with the relevant skills.

Aviation mechanics is one example of this - we don't train many in this country and have to send our planes abroad to be serviced - if we can become good at it, other countries may come to us.

The aviation academy ticks the jobs and the Brexit box.

Norwich was the only place in Norfolk to vote Remain during last year's EU referendum, and Labour say the sort of Brexit the Prime Minister is talking about will actually damage jobs in the city.

Alan Waters is the leader of Norwich City Council. He says there are lots of residents from the rest of the European Union who've brought their skills and are making a tremendous contribution to the local economy. 

Norwich's next head coach will come from a shortlist of managers currently in jobs, says sporting director Stuart Webber.

On a visit to Norfolk yesterday, the Prime Minister said she wants to increase mental health staffing.

The Tories say this would reduce the number of cases where children end up in custody and misunderstood.

Norman Lamb is the Liberal Democrat shadow health secretary and he's defending the North Norfolk seat he has held since 2001. 

He says the Conservatives' approach to mental health doesn't add up.

Anglian Water says water levels in the east of England are "good" and there will be no need for a hosepipe ban come summer, despite the recent record dry weather.

October to March has been the driest in the UK for more than 20 years and there's been a particular lack of rain in southern and eastern counties of England.

Emma Staples from the company said "there will not be any restrictions" on usage this year.

"Our reservoirs are on average 94% full. That's absolutely ample for this time of year," she said.

The Prime Minister says every school needs someone trained in mental health issues to help spot children with problems and ensure youngsters are given the support they need.

Theresa May made a pledge for it to happen, on her general election campaign visit to Norwich yesterday.

She was speaking to BBC Radio Norfolk's Nick Conrad, who asked if she thought it was acceptable to send people with mental health issues hundreds of miles away, to get the care they need.

Mrs May said the Conservatives would raise awareness of the challenges facing those with mental health issues, and ensure that these are treated.
