Teachers in borough getting training to deal with pupils’ mental health issues

0

Teachers in secondary schools in Gedling borough are to take part in a new training programme to help them identify and respond to early signs of mental health issues in children.

The programme, which is backed by £200,000 of government funding, and delivered by the charity Mental Health First Aid, will cover every secondary school in England, as part of a government commitment to improve support for children and young people.

Teachers and other school staff will receive practical advice on how to recognise issues including depression and anxiety, self-harm, and eating disorders.

They will also be invited to become ‘first aid champions’, sharing their knowledge and experiences across schools and communities to raise awareness and break down stigma and discrimination.

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt said: “Teachers already provide outstanding pastoral care and support for their pupils, but many have said that they would appreciate more training on how to understand and respond to mental health issues.

“We know that identifying symptoms of mental illness early can help young people on the road to recovery. This training will mean more children receive the timely and sensitive support they need to stay well.”

One in 10 school-aged children will have a mental health condition at any time, with half of all mental health conditions beginning before the age of 14, making early intervention and support vital.

However, in rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications, such as meningitis.

Some people are more vulnerable to listeria infections, including those over 65 years of age, pregnant women and their unborn babies, babies less than one month old and people with weakened immune systems.

Sherwood woman jailed for stabbing partner

0

A woman from Sherwood has been jailed for 10 years after being found guilty of stabbing her partner.

Malgorzata Kobialka, 44, of Sherwood, Nottingham, was found guilty at Nottingham Crown Court after wounding him on February 19, 2017.

She denied the stabbing from day one of the investigation, instead claiming that her partner was attacked by an unknown man on the doorstep of their home.

Kobialka then waited three hours to call an ambulance, instead choosing to call friends and family, before changing her clothes in an attempt to get away with the crime.

Detective Inspector Clare Dean headed the investigation: “Despite committing this savage attack on her partner, leaving him with serious, life threatening injuries, she still believed she would be able to pull the wool over the jury’s eyes.

“Leaving her partner to suffer for hours before calling for help proves how little remorse she has for her actions. Thankfully, the victim has now fully recovered.

“We take reports of domestic abuse very seriously; it ruins lives and only by taking a stand against it, can we really make a real difference.

“I want to thank my team for tirelessly working to widen the gaps in her already suspicious account of what happened, piecing together the evidence and witness accounts that sealed today’s successful evidence led prosecution.”

Police dog kennels in Arnold reopen in memory of fallen colleague

0

Nottinghamshire Police has today unveiled its fully refurbished dog kennels at Force Headquarters in Arnold – which have been named after a fallen colleague.

A major building project has been taking place at the force’s Sherwood Lodge Headquarters to upgrade and modernise the dog kennels.

A decision was made to name them as a tribute to former Nottinghamshire Police dog handler, PC Ged Walker who was killed in the line of duty in 2003.

Walker was dragged to his death by a stolen taxi as he tried to arrest the driver. Former drug addict David Parfitt from Nottingham was jailed in 2003 for 13 years for manslaughter.

Today (Friday), at a special ceremony, the unit will be officially opened by Chief Constable Craig Guildford, Police and Crime Commissioner Paddy Tipping and Ged’s widow, Tracy Walker.

Nottinghamshire Police chief constable, Craig Guildford, said: “Today is a really proud day, to be able to open brand new kennels in memory of someone who was a huge inspiration to the Force gives me great pleasure.

“As we know, police dogs are incredibly important for us to support vital investigative and prevention work and we’re grateful that we can invest in this area, as well as ensure that they’re housed and trained in the best possible surroundings.”

Also in attendance will be members of Ged Walker’s family, some of his colleagues and some of Nottinghamshire Police’s current serving dog handlers, along with the dogs who will be benefitting from the new facilities.

Police and Crime Commissioner Paddy Tipping said: “The welfare of all those who work for Nottinghamshire Police is hugely important and the dogs are no exception. With their specialist abilities they are key members of the policing family and now our very hard-working four-legged friends can benefit from these modern, well-equipped kennels and training facilities.

“I’m particularly grateful to Tracy Walker for permitting us to name the new kennel block in her husband’s memory. I know that Ged was held in high regard by all his colleagues and I think everyone agrees this is a very fitting way to remember him.”

In addition to his responsibilities for all Nottinghamshire Police’s property, the Commissioner runs the Animal Welfare Lay Visitors Scheme.  This sees canine experts making regular checks on the condition and welfare of the police dogs, providing independentverification of their health and wellbeing.
