Good evening. A couple from Leeds That's all from us. | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
Good evening. A couple from Leeds have spoken out about the stigma and | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
isolation that's often felt by Asian families who have children with | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
learning disabilities. Sarbjit Core and Jatinder Singh`Mehmi say they've | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
come up against a lot of ignorance, including the belief that they've | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
been cursed, simply because their son Gian has Down's syndrome. Anna | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
Crossley has been to meet the family. | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
Three`year`old Gian is a familiar face at his local temple in Leeds. | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
His parents have been bringing him here to worship since he was a baby. | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
Although Sarbjit and Jatinder say they have always been made to feel | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
welcome here, people's reactions from elsewhere in the Sikh community | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
have not always been positive, just because Gian has Down's syndrome. | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
We've read things in books saying children born with disabilities, | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
it's a curse; it's something they've done bad in their previous life and | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
it's a punishment. People think it is a disease and they gave us advice | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
on how to cure it. It's not a disease. It's something that he's | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
got but it doesn't define his whole personality. Sarbjit and Jatinder | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
clearly receive a lot of support from within their own temple but | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
they also want to let other parents know that there is other available | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
in the wider community, and that cultural differences will be treated | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
sensitively. Ailith Harley`Roberts runs a Down's syndrome support group | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
in Leeds and says they welcome everyone, irrespective of ethnicity | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
and religious beliefs. We realise that people don't necessarily want | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
to come to a group and it might not be the right time for them to come | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
to a group situation, so we do also say that we're very happy to meet | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
people at home and talk about support they would find helpful. | :01:58. | :02:05. | |
It's a culturally sensitive issue, but Sarbjit and Jatinder feel it's | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
important to reassure other parents that there's support out there, and | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
that having a child with a learning disability is not a curse or a | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
punishment. The Attorney General has lost his | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
appeal against what he described as the lenient sentence given to a | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
Sheffield ice`cream maker who kept another man as a slave. Dominic | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
Grieve was attempting to increase the six`and`a`half year jail term | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
handed to David Rooke for false imprisonment and assault. He was | :02:39. | :02:47. | |
convicted in January this year of keeping Craig Kinsella, a man with | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
learning difficulties, in his garage and forcing him to live like a | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
modern`day slave. But the Court of Appeal ruled the sentence wasn't too | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
low. 22 people have now been identified | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
as suspects at the centre of the two ongoing inquiries into the | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
Hillsborough disaster in 1989. 96 Liverpool football fans died at the | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
Sheffield Wednesday ground. A mix of serving and retired police officers | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
as well as others working for other organisations at the time are being | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
interviewed. Alleged offences include manslaughter, misconduct in | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
a public office and perverting the course of justice. | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
Now, Sheffield steel is known around the world, and it used to be found | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
on golf courses everywhere before other metals came into use. Well, | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
now a Rotherham company is aiming to put Sheffield steel clubs back on | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
the fairway. The only handicap is that their prototype has been deemed | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
too risky for conventional financial backing. Our business correspondent | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Danni Hewson reports. Precision comes as standard at | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
Newburgh engineering, from aerospace to military projects. The core | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
business is booming, but despite their proven track record a new | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
scheme to make golf clubs has struggled to get off the ground. A | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
hangover from the credit crunch, finding finance is stopping | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
innovation at the first tee. Most financial people just don't | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
understand it so they tend to move away from things they don't | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
understand, and if they cannot see an immediate return. It has been | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
difficult to raise money and we have tried to get funding from various | :04:30. | :04:41. | |
routes and failed. We are going out to Kickstarter, a crowd funding | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
site, and anyone can take part in the project. From Monday, anyone can | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
pledge money to the project but only those offering ?1,000 will get one | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
of the putters. But then these are slice of history and if the project | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
fails, the only other way you will get them made is in an auction | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
house. I'm not a golfer but I'm told this could bring about a new era, | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
repatriating golf club production to South Yorkshire with that | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
all`important made in Sheffield stamp. So why now after so many | :05:06. | :05:14. | |
years is steel making it back on the fairway? We can do it because we | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
have the technology, the materials and the reputation. Big dreams, now | :05:20. | :05:26. | |
they just need the cash. In the next 90 minutes, a same`sex | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
couple from Sheffield will become one of the first the country to get | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
married. Richie Wood and Kyle Emerson met seven years ago, but | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
organised their big day at Sheffield town hall in just 26 days. They're | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
celebrating in reverse order, with the wedding breakfast taking place | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
as we speak, and the ceremony just after midnight, when same`sex | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
marriage becomes legal. As much as it is about gaining | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
equality for us, it is about the commitment we are entering into, and | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
just the fact you have to call it a civil partnership as opposed to a | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
marriage automatically gives you a barrier and segregates you in the | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
community. We are just so excited we now have the opportunity and the | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
chance to get married. Onto sport now, and in Superleague | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
tonight Leeds Rhinos have been taking on Saint Helens in a top of | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
the table clash. Both teams were unbeaten so far this season and a | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
win for the Rhinos would have seen them go top, but in a closely`fought | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
match it was an injury`hit Saints side that emerged as winners. The | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
final score, 14`10 to Saint Helens, with the winning try from Tom | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
Makinson in the dying minutes of the game. It has been a dull foremost, | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
here is the weather forecast. Right now, a lot of cloud across | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
Yorkshire, but we will pull drier air the continent on Saturday | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
afternoon, and Sunday afternoon is looking promising too. Some rain | :06:56. | :07:04. | |
across the south`east for a time, and hill fog as well with | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
temperatures down to five or six degrees. A grey, damp start to | :07:09. | :07:16. | |
Saturday, but very slowly that cloud breaks up from the south`east and | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
tomorrow afternoon most places will be sunny, inland becoming really | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
quite warm. The coast will be a good deal cooler with a breeze, and it is | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
a similar forecast on Sunday. A grey start with lots of sunshine later. | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
Now the National forecast. | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
Hello. The clocks go forward this weekend, marking the beginning of | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
British summertime, BST. It has nothing to do with the weather. As | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
the clocks changed last year we were coming out of the March freeze. | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
This year, though, as the clucks change, the weather is warming up. | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
Not clear blue sky, the sun | :08:04. | :08:04. |
