<p>The G1 unit includes an adult cancer ward, a Macmillan palliative care ward and the childrens&#8217; Rainbow Ward. Clare is searching for volunteers to take the plunge and leap 10,000 feet in a sponsored skydive.</p>
<p>She told the Bury Free Press:  “The reason for organising this event is to get the local community involved in helping the hospital in a fun way.&#8221;</p>
<p>“They do amazing work there, and my family have learnt from first-hand experience what a good job they do, not only medically but with emotional support as well.”</p>
<p>If you want to get involved and help support this vital local resource, contact Clare at ctrhw@hotmail.com or call 07580 532378.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Since being decimated by the financial crisis, the UK property market has seen huge increases in rentals, and Beccles in Suffolk is a particularly hot spot.</h2>
<p>With the rise in demand for rental properties in Suffolk, agents are being forced to compete harder than ever before. Thanks to the arrival of the next generation of <a href="http://www.cfp-software.co.uk/">Lettings Software</a>, smaller agents are now able to compete with the big boys. Beccles is a beautiful and desirable village for people looking to move to the Suffolk area, and renters are growing ever more demanding in their search for the perfect home.</p>
<p>The Letting Agents Software helps agents automatically generate sales and marketing materials, portfolios as well as full social media integration which saves potential buyers both time and money.</p>
<p>Small companies all over Suffolk are looking at easier ways to run their business. Having a full software package is the perfect way to do this, as Letting Agents are already beginning to take advantage.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Many holidaymakers flock to Suffolk to enjoy a getaway amidst the stunning East Anglian countryside. Beccles is a popular destination, and many visitors are bewitched with the town&#8217;s unique charms.</h2>
<p>This may be why Beccles is experiencing a property boom. The town has a lot to offer, from a relaxed pace of life to easy access to some of the country&#8217;s best nature reserves. It&#8217;s also widely known as the best area for a Broads boating holiday. Set on the River Waveney and on the Norfolk and Suffolk county boarders, Beccles is full of activities and attractions to keep people of all ages entertained.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s no wonder that so many people are making their breaks in Beccles permanent. Local Estate Agents in the area are facing increased demand, and are turning to <a href="http://www.vebra.info/">Estate Agency Software</a> to deal with the influx of interest, producing marketing portfolios and managing properties that are being let and sold in Beccles.</p>

<p><img src="http://www.lovebeccles.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Beccles-Rail-Loop-300x213.jpg" alt="" title="Beccles Rail Loop" width="300" height="213" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1228" /><br />
But this year will see the situation change, as Abellio Great Anglia have announced that they are all set to complete the long-awaited Beccles rail loop, which will allow an hourly service to pass through Lowestoft, Oulton Broad South, Beccles and Halesworth.</p>
<p>The loop was proposed in 1984, but there has never been an opportunity to carry out the extensive work without disrupting services. Thanks to Network Rail&#8217;s recent resignalling operation, an opportunity presented itself. Now work is going quickly, with the new loop to be opened this December. </p>
<p>Jonathan Denby, the head of corporate affairs for Abellio, told the Lowestoft Journal: “I really passionately believe that 2012 is going to be a fantastic year for the East Suffolk Line.&#8221; The news is just what commuters and holidaymakers need, opening up East Anglia and making travel easier.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Beccles has always had a special allure for buyers looking to escape to Suffolk&#8217;s coast, so in these troubled times for property sales estate agents are jockeying for position to take full advantage of this emergent market. </p>
<p>One of the latest tools agents are using is specially designed <a href="http://www.vebra.info" target="_blank">estate agency software</a> which takes advantage of the latest developments in social media marketing and mobile phone app technology to put agents in touch with their buyers in a way that&#8217;s never been seen before.</p>
<p>Software such as this may well be the crucial factor in the race to dominate this highly competitive industry.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>It may sound strange, but one of the most successful new healthcare providers in Beccles is a 143-acre mixed farm, which offers &#8216;farming on prescription&#8217; and aims to help patients deal with a range of mental and physical health problems.</h2>
<p>Clinks Care Farm, just outside Beccles, is run by Doeke Dobma along with his wife, Iris van Zon, both 50. Doeke told the Guardian: &#8220;For too long, people have been prescribed medication,&#8221; Doeke says. &#8220;But there is another route. When people are engaged and have a connection with nature, often something magical happens.&#8221;</p>
<p>The basic idea is that people are prescribed a course of farm work which sees them working with animals and plants as part of a team, building confidence as well as providing exercise, fresh air and vocational training.</p>
<p>Doeke and Iris hail from the Netherlands, where the concept of Care Farms is an accepted part of the national health plan. The Netherlands has over 1,100 farms where patients can engage with nature and agriculture.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>In the battle to make the most out of the latest wave of social media technology, many letting agents are discovering that the latest techniques can mean the difference between victory and defeat.</h2>
<p>With the ongoing financial crisis making renters more picky than ever before, keeping up with the big national agencies has never been harder or more important. With this in mind, an increasing number of agencies are turning to <a href="http://www.cfp-software.co.uk" target="_blank">lettings software</a> to ensure that clients are always kept abreast of the latest developments. In this tricky time for the rental industry, communication and easy to access info are fast becoming the key to success, and CFP&#8217;s letting agency software makes use of all the latest tools, including phone apps and web based viewings, enabling an unparalleled depth of communication.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Beccles will always draw those looking to move to one of Britain&#8217;s best kept secrets, but in these trying times for the property market, what can estate agents do to add value to their services and prosper in an uncertain market?</h2>
<p>The key lies in communication and getting the most out of next-generation technology. New <a href="http://www.cfp-software.co.uk" target="_blank">lettings software</a> from Beccles allows buyers to view, tour and monitor properties online, and its advanced mobile phone app technology means that agents can keep in contact with their clients better than ever before. </p>
<p>With social media functionality and web-based portfolios, buyers can get a clearer idea of the feel of a property, and arrange viewings and even make offers with the click of a mouse. The only question is whether estate agents can survive without making the leap into the 21st century.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>The unique charms of Beccles have always attracted homebuyers, and in these unpredictable times for the housing market, estate agents are being forced to develop their services in order to secure their sales.</h2>
<p>Key to improving customer experience is communication and access to an agent&#8217;s portfolio, and this is where the internet has totally revolutionised the property market.
