Sculpture installed in church as a 'gift' to Norwich city

An art exhibit encouraging people to reflect on their stories has been opened as a "gift" to a project, called HIDDEN, was created by the team at St Peter Mancroft Church, Norwich, alongside sculptor Peter Walker, who created a 6m sq luminous cube to display in the schools, community centres, and residential care homes have also taken part by creating art for the church's associate priest, and the project's coordinator the Reverend Dr Fiona Haworth said: "We want to say to people that this is your church - it's a place for you, and you are valued here whatever stories you bring." The church has been home to art installations previously, including the Gaia globe by Luke Jerram in 2021. After the previous success, the team at St Peter Mancroft commissioned Mr Walker to create a sculpture as part of their project."The concept behind Hidden is the idea of the stories that we tell and those we conceal," Dr Haworth said. The church's vicar, the Reverend Canon Edward Carter, added: "Every person who comes to the church, they all have their own individual stories.""It's a chance to reflect on those and perhaps share them in a safe way," he said. As part of the project, students from the Norwich University of the Arts worked with members of the Matthew Project to create masks sharing their stories. Dr Haworth said: "It's a way of expressing their emotions and how they feel about how the world views them."They've been able to write their stories on the interior of the mask, so they remain hidden."Students at Lakenham Primary School and the Norwich Steiner School also created artwork for the project, which have been displayed in the church. For both Mr Carter and Dr Haworth, the local community is central to the project."How those stories, hidden stories, get woven together... That's what makes a community, that's what makes us," Mr Carter said. Dr Haworth added: "I think we want to offer this as a gift to the city."We want to say to people that 'this is your church, it's a place for you, and you are valued here whatever stories you bring'."

Wiltshire widower backs plans for life sentences for cyclists who kill

A widower who has led an eight-year campaign for a change in road safety laws has welcomed proposals that could result in life sentences for death by dangerous Walker's wife Diana, 76, was on her way home from a shop in May 2016 when she was hit by a cyclist in Pewsey, Wiltshire. She died in hospital on the following campaigning with other bereaved families, Mr Walker, 88, said his "dearest wish" was to spare others from going through the new laws - which could lead to cyclists who kill pedestrians facing life imprisonment - have been at committee stage and the Department for Transport (DfT) said they will be debated "in due course". Mr and Mrs Walker had only recently moved into a retirement home and he had been expecting to spend many more years with his wife, who he said was a "very fit person" and a "wonderful mother".Not only a loss to the family, he said she had been very active in the community Walker said she died the day after the incident because she was being kept on life support for organ donation."I don't want anybody to go through what I've had to go through," he said. Mr Walker welcomed the proposed law changes but said that "having to wait nearly nine years for something to happen is an absolute disgrace"."It was just to make certain that the police fully investigated an accident on the highway where a cyclist killed a pedestrian," he changes drafted by the previous Conservative government were dropped when Parliamentary business was halted following the announcement of the general election in July 2024. Updating 160-year-old laws Proposed changes to the Crime and Policing Bill mean a cyclist found guilty of killing a pedestrian could face a life sentence, while those who injure walkers could go to jail for five changes would also mean serious injury caused by dangerous cycling - or death by careless or inconsiderate cycling - could incur punishments of five years in jail, fines, or both.A serious injury caused by careless or inconsiderate cycling would result in a two-year sentence, a fine, or both, under the proposals.A DfT spokesperson said: "Dangerous cycling is completely unacceptable. "The Government is proposing new offences and penalties for dangerous cycling, updating legislation that is over 160 years old, to ensure that the tiny minority who recklessly disregard others face the full force of the law." Police treatment 'horrifying' The government has estimated that four deaths on UK roads last year were caused by cyclists."The way Wiltshire Police treated Diana's death was horrifying and it's a huge relief that police will now have to treat cycling collisions as a proper highways accident," Mr Walker Police said extensive enquires were carried out when Mrs Walker died, but an investigation concluded her death was not an unlawful killing and no action was taken against the following concerns raised by the coroner at her inquest, the force said crash investigators would be sent to all serious accidents involving cyclists in future.

Vanuatu president to revoke sentence reduction for 70 prisoners

The victim of a horrific bashing in Vanuatu says he was shocked, confused and re-traumatised by the Vanuatu President's decision to reduce his attackers' sentences. The men who brutally assaulted Peter Walker six years ago were among the 70 prisoners who's custodial sentences were to be reduced to community service. But following the public outcry prime minister Jotham Napat announced President Nikenike Vurobaravu will revoke the order. In a statement Mr Napat says the president was not given accurate information about several of the detainees and there'll be an investigation into why that happened. He also apologised for the distress and concern the situation has caused and says all prisoners remain in custody. That's a relief to Mr Walker but he says it still doesn't explain how the decision was made and why victims weren't notified.
