Nottinghamshire Police asked to ‘urgently produce improvement plan’ after being put into special measures

Nottinghamshire Police has now been asked to “urgently produce an improvement plan” after being put into special measures.

Nottinghamshire Police was inspected by His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire and Rescue Services between the end of 2023 and January 2024.

HMICFRS inspectors said “the force needs to improve how it manages and carries out effective investigations” and “doesn’t have adequate processes, planning or governance arrangements in place”.

The reasons behind the decision will be included in the latest inspection report due to be published later this year.

Nottinghamshire Police is now one of six forces in special measures, along with the country’s two largest, the Metropolitan Police and West Midlands Police, as well as Devon and Cornwall, Staffordshire, and Wiltshire.

Nottinghamshire Police chief constable Kate Meynell said she recognised the ‘serious nature’ of the HMICFRS findings.

She said: “I have taken urgent action to address the immediate concerns raised and have ensured that all of the initial recommendations that relate to our investigations and support for victims have been completed.

“Victims of crime are at the heart of everything that we do. The team have reviewed all of the cases identified to ensure that victims of crime are receiving regular updates and that these are being correctly recorded. Although the frequency of updates for victims is not specified in the national Code of Practice for Victims of Crime, our target is to provide updates for victims every three weeks. We achieve this in 95% of cases, but we are not complacent and will focus our efforts to improve in this area.

“I have overseen changes to help us meet our demand and ensure that we provide the best possible service to communities. These include some operational changes to make sure our officers are in the right places, at the right time, and a new process for how we safeguard victims of domestic abuse. However, we do need to improve further in this area and we are working with the National Police Chiefs’ Council and the College of Policing on this.

She added: “I fully acknowledge that our force has work to do to achieve our vision of being an outstanding force that we can all be proud of. I am fully committed to working with HMICFRS and we will work tirelessly to address their concerns and deliver the best possible service for the people of Nottinghamshire.”

Match Report: Linby Colliery Welfare FC 3 – 2 Derby Singh Brothers

Central Midlands Alliance South – 9 March 2024

Derby Singh Brothers were the visitors at Church Lane on Saturday (9). Arriving having only been beaten once in the league this season, it promised to be a stern test for Linby.

A fast, energetic start paid dividends for Linby, going 2-0 up inside 15 minutes. On 10 minutes, a searching through ball from Skipper Josh Wass sent Joe Butler away, he glided past the last man and fired his shot into the bottom corner, giving Singhs keeper Jarvis Denham no chance. 1-0.

It was 2-0 on 15 minutes, Archie Browns cross into the area was handled, and the Referee immediately gave the Penalty. Up stepped Butler to convert the spot kick, giving him his 10th goal in 10 games.

The striker could have had an hat trick, heading narrowly wide on 33mins, but Linby were pleased by an overall hard working first half performance.

Half Time . Linby Colliery 2 Derby Singh Brothers 0

The visitors made three changes at the interval, bringing on Subs Tyler Jomal, Steve Byrne and the much travelled Michael Fitzhugh, and promptly went onto to dominate the next 30mins, forcing Linby onto the back foot, with some sublime football.

They were rewarded with 2 lovely goals, Byrne on 58 mins, and Jomal on 70mins. 2-2.

Fitzhugh then rattled the Linby bar as the home team struggled to stay in the game. But, intelligent substitutions from Assistant Manager Andy Beeston, in charge for the day, gave Linby a much needed boost, and on 90 minutes, they found a winning goal. Butler this time turned creator, chasing a ball down the channel, holding it up, then playing Mason Moore in, for a terrific finish, in off the post. 3-2.

Line up: Walker, Thorne, Trigg, Wass, Wood, Conn, Pollitt, Gibson, Moore, Butler, Brown.

Subs: J.Smith ( for Pollitt 67m), Slawson (for Conn 70m), Hamilton ( for Brown 77m).

Man of the Match: Joe Butler

Match Report: Carlton Town FC 1 – 2 Stockton Town

NPL First Division East – 9 March 2024

Carlton Town went down to a narrow 2-1 defeat against title chasing Stockton Town at Stoke Lane.

The Millers matched the league leaders for long spells of the game, even after being reduced to ten men midway through the second half and can consider themselves unlucky not to have taken a share of the spoils with a number of chances going begging.  But Stockton did create some good opportunities of their own and hit the woodwork in addition to their two goals.  Ultimately, they just had a little bit more than Carlton on the day.

Mark Harvey and Tommy Brookbanks made one change to the side which had beaten Bridlington last time out, with Alex Howes returning for Shea Thompson-Haris.  That meant Lawrence Gorman moved to right back with Howes in midfield.

Stockton came into the game having tasted defeat for the first time in over four months after a midweek loss to Newton Aycliffe, but they got off to the perfect start with a goal after just 80 seconds.  A corner from the right from Glen Butterworth found Stephen Thompson and he converted unchallenged.

Minutes later Michael Roberts ran clear on goal, only to be denied by a wonderful save from Felix Annan.

Carlton responded with their first attack and it really should have led to a goal.  Lewis Durow found Greg Tempest.  His through ball sent Micah Jebbison clear on goal, with Alex Hardwick alongside him.  Jebbison elected to take an extra touch when he could have shot and visiting goalkeeper Nathan Harker dived at his feet to save.

Carlton had a strong wind at their back and were using it to try and get in behind the Anchors defence.  They were desperately close to equalising on 31 minutes when Dean Freeman’s header from a Durow throw beat Harker, only for Thomas Portas to head off the line.

Stockton moved the ball around neatly but in general terms Carlton kept them at bay, with Dan Brown and Freeman dealing with the threat down the middle and Durow and Gorman likewise on the wings.

Durow ought to have levelled minutes before half time when he met a Tempest corner at the far post, but he couldn’t keep his header down and the ball flew over the bar from a couple of yards.

The Millers made a dream start to the second period and were level in the first minute.  Another Durow throw was only half cleared to Howes on the edge of the box.  His attempt at goal was mishit but Sargent stretched, won the ball whilst on the floor and got to his feet in a flash before lifting the cheekiest of chips into the corner of the net beyond Harker.

What momentum the goal had given the home side was extinguished within five minutes as the visitors regained the lead with the softest of goals.  A free kick from the left from Butterworth found Thomas Coulthard unmarked and he headed home from eight yards to the delight of the excellent travelling support, who included former Premier league referee Jeff Winter in their number.

Stockton were buoyed by the goal and Annan had to be alert to make a fine save from Thompson soon after.  At the other end Niall Hylton fired just over the bar.

The wind had died down in the second half and both sides were playing some impressive football on a pitch that had recovered well from the recent lashings of rain.  The Millers brought on Lamin Manneh and Niall Davie with half an hour remaining and Manneh in particular was a threat.

But Carlton’s task was made more difficult on 65 minutes when Sargent was sent off for a second yellow card following a foul on Thompson.

The Anchors really should have secured the win with 20 minutes remaining when, after a quick break down the right hand side, Kevin Hayes arrowed in on goal.  His shot was blocked at the far post by Brown, who fell over in the process, but with the entire goal at his mercy Roberts some how lifted his shot high and wide from six yards.

Carlto looked to take advantage of the let-off and Manneh and Hardwick combined well on the edge of the box before Harker rushed off his line to deny the former.

Multi-marathon running Michael Ford was brought on in the closing stages but it was the visitors who went closest to scoring when Butterworth fed Michael Fowler whose lovely shot from the edge of the box beat Annan but struck the post and was cleared.

Carlton continued to push forward and in the dying minutes of added time they were awarded a free kick just outside the area.  Stockton were able to clear Tempest’s delivery and the referee then ended proceedings.  The Millers team received a well-deserved round of applause from their supporters at the end.

Carlton Town: F Annan, L Gorman, L Durow, D Brown, D Freeman, G Tempest, M Jebbison (L Manneh 59), A Howes (N Davie 59), A Hardwick, K Sargent, N Hylton (M Ford 80).  Unused Subs: D Adegbola, P Dearle

Goals: K Sargent 46; Stephen Thompson 2, Thomas Coulthard 51

DARTS: Gedling Club win again to remain four points clear of the chasing pack

Lowdham & District Village Mens Dart League RESULTS March 6

With four matches left in the league The Gedling Club look home and dry with a lead of four points. Two more wins supported by their leg difference will see The Gedling Club retain their title.

At the same time as The Gedling Club were winning in Oxton, second and third placed teams The Calverton Working Men’s Club and The Cross Keys, Burton Joyce also won as well to maintain a modicum of pressure on the current champions.

Result of the week was definitely league newcomers The Cross keys from Burton Joyce who having lost only one game this season, a feat only matched by The Gedling Club, won easily at home against The Old Ship from Lowdham. It was a particularly special win for the Burton Joyce outfit as the new team was formed by a number of ex-Ship players who ‘abandoned’ ship. In doing so they introduced a number of new players to the league, many of whom had never played league darts previously. The team could easily have been closer to The Gedling Club were it not for the new comers drawing eight games and only finding their feet in the second part of the season.

Five teams still remain in the hunt for the silver and bronze places with only two points covering the five.

Week 15 action includes the leaders and second placed CWMC taking on Epperstone and Lowdham respectively in matches they will both expect to win on current form while third placed team, The Keys from Burton Joyce face a tough game at home against a Gleaners ‘A’ team that contains the league’s ‘180’ maestro, Neil Lincoln and who are also currently leading the Captain and Secretary competition.

Calverton’s Neil Lincoln continues to lead the 180 table with four so far while The Rodney’s P Cullen continues to lead the highest finish table with 158.

The Knock Out Cup semi finals will take place on March 27 when Gleaners ‘A’ will play The  Green Dragon at the Rodney and The Admiral Rodney will take on The Gedling Club at the CWMC.

Finals & Presentation night is at 7.00pm on Friday April 19 at The Calverton Working Men’s Club.

New players and teams are always welcome and with seven of the ten teams based in the borough it’s a great way to spend your Wednesday evening. If you want to get involved or learn more, you can visit the league Facebook page here .

Meet the Gedling officer helping keep young people away from crime

Meet Amie Whitehouse, one of Nottinghamshire Police’s Schools and Early Intervention officers and it’s her role to work with young people and help them stay away from a life of crime.

PC Whitehouse has worked in policing for over two decades, but she now spends her weeks working alongside young people to help them make the best choices they can.

Based in Gedling borough, Amie looks after 12 schools and hundreds of students in schools and colleges.

She’s a school’s first point of call when a child needs some help or is hanging out with the wrong crowd and getting in trouble with the police.

PC Whitehouse has worked in policing for over two decades, but she now spends her weeks working alongside young people to help them make the best choices they can.

“I’m really passionate about my role because I believe intervention work with young people is a far better outcome for everybody in communities, rather than getting children into the criminal justice system and sanctioning them formally,” Amie explained.

“Day to day I’m out visiting schools and speaking with my designated safeguarding leads to find out how I can help and support them.

“Working with the schools I get to know the children personally and can help with any intervention work to help avoid children getting into the criminal justice system.

“If I can help a young person who’s got involved with the wrong crowd to see that they’re making the wrong choices and that a life of crime isn’t the right way to go about things, then I know I’ve done my job.

“I’m really passionate about what I do and helping young people alongside my colleagues. We’ll plan events with the students, speak to them about a career in policing, or show them firsthand a behind-the-scenes glimpse of what it’s like at some of our stations.

“The best part of the job is working with teenagers who are absolutely hilarious even when they’ve got themselves into a little bit of bother.

“It’s really rewarding to be able to get in there and work with them by having those conversations and hopefully changing their outlook on life, to help them make good decisions rather than poor choices.

“I’ve worked with a young person in one of my schools before who was really struggling.

“He was potentially getting involved in gang activity and drug dealing, but between myself and our youth outreach team we’ve really started to make a difference with that young person, and we’ve got some really productive work we’ve been doing to steer him away from that life of crime.”

Sergeant Kerry Hall, who works in our Citizens in Policing department, said: “I’m really proud of all of our School and Early Intervention Officers who work hard all year round supporting young people, school staff, partners and officers across the whole county.

“Their work engaging with and educating young people on a variety of topics is vital in preventing crime and building trust and confidence in policing.“
