Our team investigating a fail-to-stop collision in Thetford which left a young child with serious injuries have tonight released this CCTV image of the car involved.

The image shows the white Skoda Fabia, which has a black roof and black alloys, travelling on Brandon Road shortly before 6pm yesterday.

Two other cars, a blue Ford Fiesta and a grey Volkswagen Golf, can be seen in the CCTV travelling near the Skoda and we’re also keen to trace them as they could have important witness information.

Emergency services were called to the A134 Brandon Road at about 6.50pm yesterday following a collision involving the Skoda and a pedestrian.

The pedestrian, a young child, was taken to the West Suffolk Hospital and later transferred to Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge where they remain in a serious but stable condition.

It is believed the Skoda had travelling towards the crossroads with the Chase pub, having come from the direction of the A11/Canterbury Way, when the collision happened and then failed to stop at the scene.

Sgt Ben Hawkins, from the Roads and Armed Policing Team, said: “The white Skoda involved is quite distinctive with its black roof and black alloy wheels. We hope that be releasing this image it will prompt people with information, or the driver themselves, to come forward.

“The CCTV footage shows two other cars, a Ford and a VW, travelling behind the Skoda and we would really like to speak to the drivers of these vehicles as they may have information which would be helpful to our investigation.

“I would urge anyone with information to come forward and take this opportunity to once again appeal directly to the driver of the Skoda to come forward so we can get their account and understand the full circumstances of the collision.”

“Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.”

– Ernestine Ulmer

This month’s focus is Food and Drink. Ali writes about how to lose weight at the same time as avoiding hunger with her Slimming World Thorpe Hamlet and Sprowston Road with Ali sharing tips, too (Pages 36 & 37). Sobriety appears to be on the rise, but how easy is it to avoid alcohol in everyday life? You’ll find a wealth of advice and information on Pages 32 and 33. If you’re parent to a wannabe mini baker, why not consider organising a KrispieCrazy birthday party? Vicki reviews the unique way of celebrating a child’s birthday on Pages 34 and 35.

Elsewhere, Charlie shares some excellent advice on how to save room when packing all your beauty products for your holiday (Pages 12 & 13). Pages 40 to 43 showcase some of the wonderful gardens open for you to visit this month – if you visit any of them, please let us know what you think!

“Treated” Mr Iceni to a meal at The White Swan Gressenhall and I must say we were highly disappointed.

First of all, only one burger patty left, so Mr Iceni had to choose something else. Then my meal was so bland and did not reflect the description on the menu. It reappeared with a slightly different flavour but still a key ingredient missing. I was offered another dish but by this point Mr Iceni had finished and Master Iceni was getting very tetchy. Master Iceni’s fish goujons, mash and peas - the batter was way too crispy and the mash looked like a jacket potato had been outturned… Mr Iceni’s meal wasn’t fantastic - but edible at least!

So disappointing - and after explaining the problem, we got £5 off 🙄

Definitely won’t be returning but we wanted to try somewhere new.

📍 Norfolk has the highest malnutrition rate in England.

📈 That's a stat that often surprises people.

🏞️ Norfolk can appear to be a place which is doing well: a great place to live, a city with history, great shops and restaurants, access to the Broads and the coast.

🛒 While that is true for some, many other residents have a different experience. The huge rise in the cost of energy, fuel, rent, mortgages and groceries, means many people struggle to afford enough food.

🥕 Our mission at The Feed is that everyone should be able to eat well, live well and feel connected. In practical terms, that means providing healthy food at affordable prices. We do this at our Social Supermarket on Hall Road in Norwich and over 5,000 people have access to free fresh fruit and vegetables with other items at low prices.

💰To balance our books, we use profits from our cafés and our catering business but we need other revenue too: grants, donations and fundraising events.

🧡 If you'd like your organisation to help us, why not become a Friend of The Feed? This means that you're committing to raise £1,000 for us this year. It might be you take part in our North Norfolk Coast Walk, the Blickling Half Marathon or do your own thing. Throughout the year, we will keep in touch with Friends by hosting unique events.

🤝 So, reach out if you'd like to help us rid Norfolk of the tag of being England's leader in malnourishment. Drop an email to [email protected]

We're delighted that all these organisations have already signed up as a Friend of The Feed, thank you for your support for our community:
