gone wrong with Wales? But now on BBC One, it's time | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
And now the news for the East Midlands, I'm Anne Davies. Good | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
evening. There's growing anger after potentially life changing operations | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
for children were cancelled. The surgery was designed to help | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
children with cerebral palsy walk again. The NHS has apologised for | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
the distress and uncertainty the decision has caused. Now families | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
face an agonising wait to see if their children can get the surgery | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
they need. Our Health Correspondent, Rob Sissons reports. | :00:40. | :00:47. | |
Forward, that's it. Keep those feet nice and far apart. This boy's | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
family thought he was well on the way to his surgery to help him walk. | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
But Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre say the spinal operation is | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
no longer routinely funded on the NHS. We're not expecting him to jump | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
off the bed but there is hope there that he could walk without the | :01:06. | :01:12. | |
surgery. In today's post, the News Mum was dreading. And 29 other | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
families who are in the same boat. His operation will not be going | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
ahead on the NHS. The procedure involves cutting nerves around the | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
spine to reduce spasticity. Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
should've stopped doing the operations months ago. In a | :01:33. | :01:40. | |
statement, NHS England told us they were trying to achieve nationally | :01:41. | :01:41. | |
consistent approach. In Nottingham, Shannon's family feel | :01:42. | :01:58. | |
lucky. She got her operation four days ago, and the Queen's Medical | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
Centre is honouring other operations because they have firm dates booked | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
in. But to begin with they had said no. I thought it was really bad and | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
that other people could not get help, it was really bad for them as | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
well. I think it is awful and I want to do anything I can to help the | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
other children who are not getting the surgery. Days on, they are | :02:24. | :02:30. | |
already noticing improvements. She can now raise her hands. Can you | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
show us now? Can you open your hand for me please? That's brilliant. It | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
is not fantastic for this boy's family who say they feel forced to | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
raise thousands of pounds to go private. It is a big mountain to | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
climb, who knows how long that will take? Families across the East | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
Midlands have had their hopes raised and dashed. We asked for interviews | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
from Queen's Medical Centre and NHS England and were told no one was | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
available. Tonight there is talk of NHS England funding some cases, | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
possibly around 100 to be evaluated, but there is no word yet on who | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
might qualify. Police have arrested 26 men in | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
connection with suspected violent disorder that broke out after a | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
football match last year. It happened on the day Nottingham | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
Forest played Derby County in September. This morning, raids took | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
place across three counties. Tom Brown reports. | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
It was barely donned this morning, at huge police operation was already | :03:36. | :03:44. | |
underway. Around 100 officers arrived at homes in Nottingham, | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
Derbyshire and Boston in Lincolnshire. They were aiming to | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
arrest 26 men in a series of co`ordinated raids. It was all in | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
relation to suspected football related violence. The operation is | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
the culmination of investigation that place with regards to a violent | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
disorder incident after the Nottingham Forest and Derby County | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
game in September last year. Since that date, a number of people have | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
already been arrested and are currently on bail. A lengthy enquiry | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
and investigation piecing together lots of different strands of | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
intelligence has taken place, identifying 26 further people we | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
need to speak to in relation to that disorder. It happened near this in | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
right on the Nottinghamshire Derbyshire border. The men arrested | :04:32. | :04:41. | |
today were aged between 16 and 50. The majority were detained at | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
Nottingham, where evidence and statements were taken. This five | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
months police operation was so big, it was partly funded by the Home | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
Office. It's unprecedented. I have been a police officer for 22 years, | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
I have not seen on many occasions the amount of intelligence gathering | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
and preparation which took place in relation to preparing for today's | :05:04. | :05:11. | |
arrests. Police say anyone convicted of football related violence gives | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
the real fans a bad name. More arrests could follow, this operation | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
is not over. Almost 600 affordable homes are to | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
be built in Leicester over the next two years ` as figures confirm today | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
the average price of a house in the region is ?176,000. The average cost | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
has been unchanged for three months up to December last year ` but | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
there's been a near two per cent annual increase. The UK average is | :05:35. | :05:44. | |
?50,000. `` ?250,000. In Leicester ?60 million is to be spent by the | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
council and others on providing affordable homes. But one estate | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
agent in the city is suggesting a boom could be on the way in the | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
private market. We have seen in markets before that at the beginning | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
of the market you get that gradual, steady growth, and as that bubble | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
builds the increase becomes more rapid. | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
This year the Rainbows Hospice will have been caring for thousands of | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
children and their families for two decades. It was officially opened by | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
the Prince of Wales and since then, has gone on to provide respite, | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
palliative and end of life care for children from across the East | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
Midlands. Sport now and one important result | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
in the Championship tonight. Derby County have gone up to third in the | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
table after winning away at Sheffield Wednesday. They won 1`0. | :06:31. | :06:43. | |
Time for the weather forecast. Thank you. It has been a quiet day | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
today and we got to see lovely scenes like this today. It is | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
looking decent for tomorrow as well. It may start off gloomy but we will | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
get brightness and sunshine towards the end of the day. We have had | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
showers around, they are fading away now so it is a dry night. Clear | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
spells tonight as well, turning cooler with light winds tonight. | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
Tomorrow morning, we will see cloud rolling in, a bit of hill fog and a | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
spot of rain here and there as well. Later on, the cloud should break | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
up, we should get some brightness and sunshine. Temperatures up at | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
around nine or 10 degrees. Feeling quite springlike, dare I say. Taking | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
a look at the outlook, it looks as though is all turn more unsettled on | :07:29. | :07:29. | |
Thursday, but that's all from us. heavy. More international weather | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
next. | :07:35. | :07:37. |
