Campaign for Real Aires UK - CAMpRA

There’s been notices put up on some car parks in the Borough, and one at Brush Quay, Gorleston caught my eye when it was put on the Gorleston Facebook page. It brings in charges for locals who park in the free car parks. Now it seems, many will park instead on Quay Road where visiting motorhomers pr...

At the meeting with Mr Russell I was shown all the facilities he’s created for campers and caravanners in the adjoining field. Impressive but it’s seasonal as it’s on grass, but the new washrooms are accessible from the car park area too, so it would work well, if approval and a Planning Exemption C...

Nothing recently on this, so I sent a follow up email (23/1/25) to the Director of Marketing… “Hello James I was targeted by your Facebook advertising today, and recalled my efforts in contacting you during ‘Lockdown’ about how Motorhome Tourism could benefit your historic houses. Have you been moni...

“Still working on it” says Town Clerk, Paul today 23/12/24 This is a year on from my visit on site with Paul. They have a new management company in place now and they are looking to put in place markers before opening…. At least I got a reply to my email after three sendings - it must be the Christm...

What is going on here? It’s still not an overnight stay, or listed as one on SFS yet… I emailed him twice, as no answer back quickly as usual, but no response, which is odd. I phoned him on 8/11 and was told by receptionist that he’s in a meeting and she’d leave him a message. He never called back… ...

The article has been submitted and will be published in the March edition on 14th March. I hope to obtain a copy at that time, or before. Get ready to follow up afterwards by visiting your local fuel station and car wash business and suggest they get going, referring to the backing of this associati...

I spotted a new development announcement in the local paper (online, via Facebook) about improving facilities at Acle’s riverside boating marina to include better parking, bigger cafe, shops…. Richardson’s Leisure is a local boating (Norfolk Broads) business that has recently moved into Hemsby and i...

This morning, I held a zoom meeting with Alexander Russell, Director of Strategy at the Car-Was Association. This resulted in CAMpRA being invited to write an article (max 350 words) to introduce the idea that car wash businesses can cash in on Motorhome Tourism by becoming Service Points. And that ...

After nothing back again, I re-contacted Rachel (Sales, with Media Company for the e-newsletter), and I think she finally got my 2nd email to the right place. Christmas intervened too… Then on first day back at work, 2024, I finally received a letter from the Director of Strategy, to agree to a phon...
