Sea Palling THS

***************** IMPORTANT NOTICE *****************

It is with great sadness that we must announce that due to a situation beyond our control our THS meets at Sea Palling in May and August have been cancelled.

An area of the North Norfolk coast has been designated as a Site for Special Scientific interest by Natural England, and unfortunately Sea Palling falls within this and its buffer zone.

Please click the link to read the letter we received from the Director General of the club, which explains things in a bit more detail.

If you have already made a booking our bookings officer will be in contact regarding the refund of your deposit, due to continued uncertainty surrounding this we have decided not to hold on to any deposits against any future THS booking until we are certain the THS meets will be able to go ahead.

The West Essex committee is sorry for any disappointment this causes and hopes to be able to run the THS’s again next year.

Once again we have our ever popular THS at Keith Farm, in the seaside village of Sea Palling, on the North Norfolk Coast. We have two sets of dates for you to choose from, May and August.
