Mapperley burglar caught after leaving fingerprints on booze bottles

A Mapperley man has been locked up after his fingerprints were found on two bottles of cider left at the address.

Delroy Melady broke into the Victorian home in Loughborough Road, West Bridgford, on September 15, 2022.

The 44-year-old stole hundreds of pounds worth of alcohol, a Fitbit and a bottle of perfume from the property.

Following extensive inquiries Melady was later arrested after officers spotted him in Nottingham city centre and he was subsequently charged.

Melady, formerly of Querneby Road, Mapperley, went on to plead guilty to burglary and he was jailed for four years when he appeared at Nottingham Crown Court for sentencing on November 2, 2022.

Detective Inspector Paul Lefford, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “Melady is a prolific offender who committed this burglary without any regard whatsoever for the immense distress caused to his victims.

“I’m very pleased he is now off the streets and I hope that his imprisonment will reassure people the force takes all reports of burglary very seriously and will investigate reports.

“We know burglary is an incredibly invasive and impactful crime that can make people feel unsafe in their own homes. That’s why we continue to work hard to prevent burglaries before they happen and to pursue burglars who blight our communities and bring them to justice.”

Gedling man fronts Hospice’s Light up a Life appeal in memory of beloved wife

Gedling man fronts Hospice’s Light up a Life appeal in memory of beloved wife

When Frank Shaw stood up to deliver a eulogy at his wife Joan’s funeral, he started with the words: “I’m going to tell you a love story.” 

Nottinghamshire Hospice played its part in that story by providing a care package enabling the couple to be together in their Gedling home in the weeks before Joan died in February.

Now, as Frank faces his first Christmas without Joan, he is fronting the hospice’s Light up a Life appeal – launched to raise vital funds to help patients and their families.

Frank, who shares his story in a heartrending video to launch the appeal, said: “Without the hospice I don’t know how I would have coped. When my wife came out of hospital we wouldn’t have been able to manage without the hospice care. It enabled me to bring her home.

“Now the hospice needs to raise money to help other people in the situation we were in, and I’m happy to do what I can to help.”

Joan had been treated successfully for Breast Cancer in 2016 but two years later developed another tumour and after undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy and two mastectomies, she learnt her illness couldn’t be cured. 

Frank and Joan were referred to Nottinghamshire Hospice and initially came to the Therapy and Wellbeing unit together, until Joan became more poorly and was taken into hospital. 

The couple, who had been together 42 years, had rarely spent time apart, so when Joan was in hospital Frank found it very hard being apart from her and wanted to bring her home. Nottinghamshire Hospice put together a package of care to enable this to happen. 

“We had two carers come four times a day and on several occasions we had nurses who stayed all night when I was getting tired. It allowed me to get some rest,” said Frank, “and the wonderful thing about these services is they are free.”

The Light up a Life appeal invites people to remember those they’ve lost by dedicating a light on the hospice tree, lighting up the hospice tower in memory of a loved one or purchasing special edition festive Forget-Me-Not pin badges. 

Frank will also be switching on the lights on the hospice Tree of Lights at a special event on Sunday 11th December where people will come together to remember loved ones.  

“Light up a life is a wonderful idea, which will bring people together at that time of year when we remember loved ones particularly,” said Frank

“Joan was the light of my life – she lit up my life. Now we need to light up other people’s lives by supporting the Light up a Life appeal.”

Frank himself has an incurable illness – axonal peripheral neuropathy which causes numbness and tingling in the feet and hands and muscle weakness. He now attends the Hospice’s Therapy and Wellbeing unit for massage and other activities. 

“The massage treatment relaxes my legs, and coming to the unit keeps me occupied,” Frank added. 

“I’m lost without Joan. She gave me life, but coming here gives me a chance to talk about her. The hospice is a fantastic place. The whole organisation is marvellous.”

Nottinghamshire Hospice’s care continues day and night throughout the year, with Christmas no exception. Throughout the festive season, nursing teams will be out and about across the city and county caring for people in the last weeks, days and hours of their lives. 

Paul Hawkins, Community Fundraiser at Nottinghamshire Hospice said: “Frank’s story is a perfect illustration of how our services work together to help patients and their families. We’re proud to have played a part in their story and pleased that we’re able to continue supporting Frank in his grief.

“We’re so grateful to Frank for helping us spread the word about our Light up a Life appeal which will raise vital funds to help our patients and their families during the festive season and beyond.

“There are so many pressures on our patients and their families and carers, particularly at the moment with cost of living increases, so it’s all the more important that our care can continue free of charge.”

People can support the appeal by:

  • Dedicating a light on the hospice tree
  • Joining together at the Light up a Life event on 11th December
  • Purchasing a special edition festive Forget-Me-Not pin badge
  • Donating to light up the hospice’s historic tower for a night in memory of a loved one.

Netherfield volunteer who helped serve more than 35,000 meals to local community during pandemic is honoured with top prize at Pride of Gedling awards

Netherfield volunteer Tina Simpson has been commended for her outstanding efforts in supporting her community with a local award night’s most honoured prize.

Each year the Pride of Gedling Awards applaud Gedling borough’s most notable residents and businesses, celebrating their community achievements over the last year.

Mrs Simpson has been involved in community work since moving to Gedling in 2007, and is the treasurer of the Netherfield Forum, and manages their two centres.

The Netherfield Forum’s centres are in place to help older and younger residents, with St Georges Centre providing activities for elderly citizens, and LOCO youth centre serving as a community centre for youngsters.

During the pandemic, Tina and her team served over 35,000 meals to the local community: “We worked our socks off during the pandemic. We did over 30,000 meals over that period.

“People came daily. Our busiest day was 156 meals. We were a small team of four, and we cooked, prepped, and did the meals.

“(The Pandemic) was really a turning point for everybody. The war in Ukraine has also affected us. It has had a major impact to everybody’s lives. Between Covid and the War, we’ve got to get together, work together, pull our socks up and get on with it.

“We work together like we’ve always done in Netherfield, with all the shops, agencies, and make lives easier for everybody.”

Mrs Simpson was inspired to give back to her local community as she had once relied on community help. She recalled the aid she received 36 years ago from an armed forces charity: “When my son was little, I needed help, and an organisation called SSAFA helped [us] when we had nothing.

“I always said when I was fortunate enough to pay back, I would do, and that’s how I started”.

Tina and her team contribute to the community in a variety of ways, through college courses, CV writing and memory cafes for those with dementia.

Tina stressed her willingness to give back to others: “We need to ensure that we’re available to help people. We only charge people a pound for a takeaway hot meal. It’s open to everybody in the community, we’re here to serve everyone.

“We’re keeping going regardless, and doing what a community centre should do, provide a warm safe space where people can get food, and advice.”

Mrs Simpson told the Gedling Eye that the win came as a complete surprise and was not something that she was expecting: “It’s an award for the Gedling community, not just for me. It’s also a recognition for all the hard work that the team here does.

“I feel very humbled.”

Family of rabbits found dumped inside wheelie bin in Bestwood Country Park as RSPCA fears impact of cost of living crisis

Family of rabbits found dumped inside wheelie bin in Bestwood Country Park as RSPCA fears impact of cost of living crisis

A family of rabbits were found dumped in a wheelie bin in Bestwood Country Park as an animal charity raises fears around people giving up pets because of the cost of living crisis

The RSPCA is now appealing for information following the dumping.

The two adult rabbits and seven young rabbits were found in a bin in the country park’s car park on Sunday, October 30 at 2pm by a member of the public having a walk.

RSPCA inspector Keith Ellis picked the rabbits up from the member of the public, and said: “We know times are tough at the moment for everyone but the answer is never to dump an animal and especially not in a bin where they may never have been found. 

PICTURED: These young rabbits were found in a wheelie bin at Bestwood Country Park (PHOTO: RSPCA)

“The RSPCA has resources to help if you are struggling to care for an animal during the cost of living crisis – including our new online Hub. 

“Family and friends can often help and people struggling can even seek advice from a local charity or vet.

“We are grateful to the member of the public who spotted these rabbits and they are now recovering in RSPCA care.

“If anyone does recognise these bunnies they can ring the RSPCA confidentially on 0300 123 8018.”

Sadly the RSPCA has reported a large increase – 49% – in rabbits coming into its care in the first half of 2022. While the charity’s new Animal Kindness Index found 28% of owners are worried about being able to care for their pets.

Keith added: “With more people struggling, we expect more animals will be neglected and abandoned by owners who can no longer afford to care for them. And with fuel and energy costs rising, the cost of rescuing and caring for animals continues to increase too.

“Please don’t let animals pay the price of the cost of living crisis this Christmas. To Join the Winter Rescue and help our rescuers be there for the animals in need, please visit our webpage.“

Second cost of living payment being made to Gedling borough households

Second cost of living payment being made to Gedling borough households

MORE than 10,000 families across Gedling will now receive government support for the cost-of-living crisis.

Almost one in four families across the UK will receive £324 from the Conservative Government this month as the latest Cost of Living Payments begin to be sent out today, including 10,400 families across the parliamentary constituency of Gedling.

Over eight million households in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland who claimed qualifying means-tested benefits during the eligibility period will be automatically paid £324 this month.

Gedling MP Tom Randall
‘WELCOMED” Gedling MP Tom Randall praised the decision to award families with a £324 payment

This direct support is part of the Government’s £37 billion package of cost of living support, including up to £1,200 worth of direct help for vulnerable households.

The payments, starting this week from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), are made directly, with no need to apply or do anything to receive it.

Gedling MP Tom Randall said the payments are ‘very welcome’.

He said: “Households are facing rising living costs in the wake of Putin’s illegal war in Ukraine and it is right that vulnerable households across the UK and in Gedling are supported.

“I welcome the news that 10,400 families across Gedling are eligible for their second means-tested cost of living payment worth £324 this month. 

“These payments will give families much needed support this winter and protect the most vulnerable in the face of rising prices.”

Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt said: “Prices are rising across the world as we manage the aftershock of Covid-19 and Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. We recognise that families back home are struggling, which is why we’ve taken decisive action to hold down energy bills this winter and provided hundreds of pounds of cash support for each vulnerable household. 

“As part of that support, over 8 million vulnerable households – almost a quarter of families in the UK – will automatically receive a second cost of living payment worth £324 in their bank account from today.

“And while we can’t completely protect people from rising prices, my priority at the upcoming Autumn Statement will be to protect the poorest in society as we take the tough decisions necessary to fix our public finances.”

Gedling Borough Council and Carlton Town FC pledge commitment to help end violence against women and girls

Gedling Borough Council and Carlton Town FC pledge commitment to help end violence against women and girls

Gedling Borough Council is to work with Carlton Town Football Club and local charity We R Here to help end violence against women and girls by men as part of White Ribbon Day.

White Ribbon Day is a widely recognised global movement: in the UK, it is spearheaded by White Ribbon UK, the leading charity engaging men and boys to end violence against women and girls.

This year’s theme is #TheGoal, as the day falls on Friday, November 25 at the start of the World Cup, a time when violence against women and girls can increase. 

This year, the council is aiming to get over 100 men to sign a pledge that they will never be silent or ignore violence against women.

The campaign is being launched at the home of Carlton Town Football Club, where footballers will sign the pledge and promise not to be silent about the devastating effect of violence against women, before their next home game on Saturday. 

Gedling Borough Councillors will also be wearing white ribbons at their next Full Council meeting on 16 November to show their support for this important cause. They are working with local charity, We R Here, who support women fleeing from domestic abuse, to help raise awareness of their project and highlight how they support survivors of abuse. 

Portfolio Holder for Diverse Communities and Life Chances, Councillor Kathryn Fox said: “It’s vitally important that we highlight White Ribbon Day and ask men not to standby and be silent and to end violence against women and girls.

“For many, the start of a football tournament as big as the World Cup should be an exciting time but, for some, it will be a time of fear of assault and violence so, we are delighted to be working with Carlton Town Football Club to raise awareness of this issue and get as many of them to make a pledge to end violence against women. We are also proud to be working with We R Here, who do an amazing job of supporting survivors of domestic violence.” 

Hilary Brown, Founder of We R Here said: “We support many survivors of domestic abuse and, unfortunately, domestic abuse helplines can see an increase in calls when there’s large events, such as a World Cup, as men will take out their frustrations on their partners. We really welcome this campaign to highlight this and even if it stopped one attack, it would be worthwhile and I am really pleased we can be part of this with Gedling Borough Council and raise awareness of our work, here in Gedling.”

Anthea Sully, Chief Executive of White Ribbon UK, said: “This year, White Ribbon Day is focusing on the attitudes and behaviours men and boys can adopt to move away from associations to violent and abusive behaviour. “Men and boys are now expecting better from their colleagues, friends, and family to ensure women and girls are safe. 

“We are inviting you to wear a White Ribbon and make the White Ribbon Promise, never to use, excuse or remain silent about men’s violence against women. She continued, “This year, White Ribbon Day falls on the same week as the launch of the FIFA men’s World Cup. There is never a better time for us to focus on the good that can come from unifying and supporting one common cause. #TheGoal does just that, it brings men and boys together to think about how they can make a positive difference to achieve equality and safety for women and girls.”

We can all make a commitment today by making the White Ribbon Promise never to use, excuse or remain silent about men’s violence against women – 

This is an opportunity for all our colleagues and partners to stand up to men’s violence against women and girls.

Papplewick Pumping Station added to Historic England’s ‘at risk’ register

Papplewick Pumping Station added to Historic England’s ‘at risk’ register

It’s been revealed that Papplewick Pumping Station has now been added to Historic England’s Heritage at Risk Register.

The heritage watchdog said parts of the Victorian site, near Ravenshead, have suffered ‘age-related deterioration’.

The attraction is one of 28 East Midlands sites added to the 2022 register which was published today (10).

£9,450 has been awarded by Historic England to assess what repairs are needed.

The historic watchdog said it was concerned about the condition of the pumping station’s boiler house’s chimney, the engine house porch and boundary walls.

The Grade II* listed pumping station was built in 1882 and is the only one in England to have retained all its original features, including machinery, and the reservoir.

It was decommissioned in 1969 and is now a scheduled monument and park and garden, museum and wedding venue owned by Severn Trent Water and managed by the Papplewick Pumping Station Trust.

Museum director Ashley Smart told BBC News that the trust carried out maintenance throughout the year but there were areas in need of repair by specialists.

“We do as much as we can, but there comes a point with buildings, such as the engine house porch and the chimney, where you need to call in specialists,” he said.

“The trust does not have the finances to cover the significant financial costs involved and so we welcome the pumping station going on the Heritage at Risk Register as it flags up the needs of this magnificent building.”

The pumping station is one of 28 sites across the East Midlands added to Historic England’s at risk register this year.

PRIDE OF GEDLING 2022: Amazing local heroes receive prestigious awards for community efforts

Incredible local achievements have been recognised at this year’s Pride of Gedling Awards.

The annual awards, held at the Civic Centre in Arnold, celebrate local people and businesses that have gone above and beyond for the community.

Over 190 nominations were received and the winners were finally announced at this year’s ceremony that took place last night (9)

Suthaharan Raslinghan received the first award of the evening in recognition of his work to make Somersby Convenience the heart of the Woodthorpe community. He organises events at his shop for the local community, organised a delivery service for pensioners during lockdown and has donated cash towards creating a community space in the village for locals to enjoy.

Sally Bates collects, cleans and prepares donated items to raise money for charity through her Sassy’s Bag Facebook page. She helps familieds that are struggling and also helped raise cash to ensure children who lost everything in a house fire had something to open on Christmas day. In recognition for her efforts, Sally was given the Community Heroes Award.

Eight-year-old Leah Lee was handed this year’s Environmental Hero Award. Leah is a member of Kids Against Plastic and has been visiting local schools to give talks about plastic pollution and the effects on our oceans and wildlife.

Amanda Vennell has raised money to buy defibrillators for over 20 local football clubs after becoming deeply saddened when young West Bridgford Colts footballer Dylan Rich collapsed and died on the pitch. Amanda’s actions have meant that should the unimaginable happen again, lives could be saved. She was recognised with the Outstanding Community Project Award.

Woodborough Celtic Youth FC were handed the Inspirational Healthy Lifestyle Award in reward for their efforts to help children from pre0school upwards learn about how sport can be great for your physical and mental wellbeing. Coaches Martin, Paul and Adam give their time for free to host sessions for 60-80 children each week to teach the essential skills for football while making sure it’s fun.

Freddie Vokes is an accomplished pianist and harpist – and is only 13! He has used his talent to raise money for those in Ukraine by organising live streaming concerts – with over 1,000 raised so far to buy urgent medical equipment. Freddie was awarded the Dylan Barker Young Person Award (sponsored by Gedling Eye) for his amazing efforts

The winner of the Overall Pride of Gedling Award 2022 was Tina Simpson for her work at Netherfield Forum St George’s & Loco Centre. Tina has served the community tirelessly for over twenty years.
