A groundswell of public protest against closing inpatient beds | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
at the Pilgrims Hospice in Canterbury may have forced | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
It had been announced that the Hospice would close in 2016, | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
with nurses going into the community to provide care at home instead. | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
However, after 17,500 peopld joined a petition | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
against the plans, today Pilgrims Hospice cancelled two further public | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
meetings and announced they were reviewing their plans. | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
Closing beds at a loved hospice was never going to be easy or popular | :01:39. | :01:52. | |
and now public anger has forced the trust to put the idea on hold. | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
Pilgrims Hospice said previously it wanted to close its Canterbury | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
wanted to close its Canterbtry inpatient ward and offer care in | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
homes and hospitals. But th`t triggered a campaign against the | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
idea and more than 30,000 people idea and more than 30,000 pdople | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
showed their support on Facebook and even more signed the petition. I'm | :02:12. | :02:21. | |
glad that they have begun to listen to the public. It is the public who | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
give money to the hospice and other ones keeping it running. If they do | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
not listen to these people the funds will drop. The trust released a | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
will drop. The trust releasdd a statement. One trustee said she was | :02:35. | :02:44. | |
extremely concerned at the depth of public feeling and that the trust | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
was taking the matter very seriously. It is to the credit of | :02:47. | :02:54. | |
the trustees that they have recognised they must carry local | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
opinion with them in any strategy they have if they want to bd able to | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
they have if they want to be able to continue to fund raise. Pilgrims | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
Hospice has done much good work like caring for Mike Radford before | :03:09. | :03:10. | |

There was a large public meeting on Friday night and the public as the | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
trustees if they would take part in a consultation process. They were | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
a consultation process. Thex were told that it was just a presentation | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
and 75% walked out. I'm told the mood was quite ugly. But thhs | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
and 75% walked out. I'm told the mood was quite ugly. But this is | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
still just a review process with no timescale to the review. I think the | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
trustees have been overwhelmed by trustees have been overwhelled by | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
the depth of public feeling and gratitude for the hospice being | :04:14. | :04:14. | |

A lack of staff could lead to more unrest and even deaths of inmates | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
That's the conclusion of a report by the Independent Monitoring Board, | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
following a serious disturb`nce at the jail last November. | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
The prison service insists the jail is safe but officers say they're | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
The prison now houses foreign nationals only. | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
Among the problems listed is that 32 inmates remain in the prison | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
despite completing their sentence, because they can't be deported. | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
A volatile situation and thd period of turbulence. The report finds it | :04:42. | :04:52. | |
of turbulence. The report fhnds it was the transfer of 150 inmates | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
of turbulence. The report finds it was the transfer of 150 inm`tes at | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
short notice from another jail that culminated in the disturbance last | :04:58. | :04:58. | |
November. Prisoners protesting over November. Prisoners protesthng over | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
delays in receiving their property, catering and extended lock finds. `` | :05:06. | :05:13. | |
lock up time. We do not feel we have the right support to do our job. The | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
owner of the pub opposite the prison was working on the night of the | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
disturbance. We heard shouting and disturbance. We heard shouthng and | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
it just got louder and we realised it just got louder and we rdalised | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
something was going on. The report says the situation could develop | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
again. Do you find that worrying? It is a concern. The Dell dashdd the | :05:40. | :05:44. | |

When you have more prisoners to fewer staff, there are less staff to | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
look out for prisoners and know what might be wrong. Also we know that | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
things like when you have reduced things like when you have rdduced | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
association time with prisoners, it association time with prisoners it | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
means they cannot maintain contact with their families and have less | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
time outside to associate whth other time outside to associate whth other | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
people. This is pressure on them in terms of mental health. The Prison | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
Service told us there were appropriate levels of staffing to | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
run a safe prison in terms of national guidelines and says it is | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
more effect did to hold fordign national prisoners in one location. | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
It praised the response of staff during what has been a period of | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
significant change. Simon Jones is outside the prison now. This report | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
outlines some significant challenges ahead. It paints a picture where | :06:54. | :07:02. | |
staff are too busy to deal with the problems of prisoners. There | :07:03. | :07:02. | |
staff are too busy to deal with the problems of prisoners. Therd are | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
language difficulties, culttral differences, staff dealing with | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
different religious denomin`tions along the inmates. But the situation | :07:10. | :07:17. | |
now needs to be resolved, how they go forward on this. The Prison | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
Service and says that the shtuation remains acceptable in terms of the | :07:22. | :07:30. | |
level of staffing. Coming up, extraordinary achievements from the | :07:31. | :07:35. | |

The organisers of yesterday's Airshow in Folkestone, | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
say that the show may not rtn next year, following poor takings. | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
The airshow was very well attended, with more than 150,000 visitors | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
but the private company that took over the show says that thex did | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
not spend enough money to make it viable. | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
On the face of it the airshow appears to have been a total success | :07:59. | :08:10. | |
with up to 200,000 people attending the free event over the weekend. But | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
today the organisers said they have failed to break even though this | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
could be the last airshow for the town. We are hoping to get together | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
at the weekend as direct as and by that time I should have been able to | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
have a look through the figures that at the moment we are not making any | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
plans for arranging a date for next year. When Eastbourne introduced an | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
entry charge in 2008, spect`tors entry charge in 2008, spectators | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
stayed away. But as the clean`up continues at Folkestone, residents | :08:45. | :08:45. | |
say that the airshow is vit`l to the say that the airshow is vital to the | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
local economy. Having something like the airshow does bring people into | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
the town and I would imagind that the town and I would imagine that | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
traders are keen to have it continue next year. It would be a sh`me for | :08:59. | :09:07. | |
Folkestone as a town. It brhngs a boost to the local economy. The | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
shortfall is being put down to a lack of sales of programmes and | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
parking. But one pressure group says it is such a good advertiselent for | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
Folkestone that a solution must be Folkestone that a solution lust be | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
found. My council would be that they keep quiet about their costs and do | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
a proper debrief with local authorities and businesses who are | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
keen to see this happen and are very pleased with how it all went off. | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
The organisers of the airshow say they are still calculating the total | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
losses and will make a final decision about the future of the | :09:46. | :09:46. | |
airshow this weekend. The families of residents who died | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
at a Sussex care home have called for a public inquiry and a complete | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
overhaul of the care industry to There were 19 unexplained ddaths | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
at Orchid View in Copthorne between Last year a coroner ruled that five | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
of those cases involved neglect. Today, a Serious Case Review said | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
several other residents and their families suffered | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
distress, poor care and discomfort. Our home affairs reporter Rebecca | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
Williams was with families `nd Margaret Tucker was one of five | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
elderly residents who died as a elderly residents who died as a | :10:20. | :10:32. | |
result of the care they recdived at result of the care they recdived at | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
the nursing home. Today her son said a review into what happened at the | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
home does not go far enough. As a child she survived the Blitz. The | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
house was hit and she and her sister house was hit and she and her sister | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
were pulled out. But she did not survive the lack of care. There is | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
something badly wrong. The inquest something badly wrong. The hnquest | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
heard how residents were repeatedly given the wrong medication. They | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
were not able to reach their call bells and sometimes Sellotape was | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
used to secure dressings. The review today suggested that strategies to | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
put in place to avoid similar failings at nursing homes in the | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
future but some fear it will only have the effect at a local level. We | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
do not know how much of this will be implemented and we believe a public | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
implemented and we believe ` public enquiry would go deeper and look at | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
the whole industry in more depth. I would like to sit with David Cameron | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
and show him some photographs and greet him a journal and still having | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
tell me that the private sector is the right place for the care of the | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
most vulnerable. Russell saxs his mother was used as a cash machine | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
mother was used as a cash m`chine and he believes people should have | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
been prosecuted for what happened at the home. | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
So what were the main findings of today's report? | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
Orchid View operated without a registered manager for most | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
of the time it was open. Care plans identifying the | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
individual needs of patients were so poor they didn't provide safe care. | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
And a lack of good English `mong a number of staff was detrimental | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
a number of staff was detrilental to the overall quality of service. | :12:14. | :12:15. | |
to the overall quality of sdrvice. It also criticised the | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
Care Quality Commission which regulates care homes for bring | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
too tolerant of problems and showing an outdated "good" rating | :12:21. | :12:21. | |
for Orchid View on its website. We failed to act and did not bring | :12:22. | :12:33. | |
all the incidents together to look at the bigger picture. That would | :12:34. | :12:34. | |
benefit from today's to takd at the bigger picture. That would | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
benefit from today's to takd action. Rebecca Williams joins us now from | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
Chichester where the report was published today. What are the main | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
recommendations put forward? Well the document makes a number of | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
suggestions from informing perspective residents about any | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
concerns at a particular nursing home. It says the families of | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
residents should be involved in any inspections had also suggests that | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
employers should thoroughly staff have the qualifications thex say | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
have the qualifications they say they do. During the press conference | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
today the author of the report admitted that no one has bedn | :13:11. | :13:11. | |
today the author of the report admitted that no one has been held | :13:12. | :13:12. | |
to account for what happened at Orchid View and he said that due to | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
the law in the UK no one has been prosecuted for it. Since the Orchid | :13:18. | :13:22. | |

against it, management said they are now reviewing the decision. Also | :13:52. | :13:55. | |

Sir Archibold Mackindoe tried out many procedures and treatments | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
on his patients that were completely new. | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
In 1941 his patients became known as the Guinea Pig Club. | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
By the end of the war it had grown to 649 patients | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
including Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders and Russians. | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
58 of them are still going strong ` and many came to East Grinstead to | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
Piers Hopkirk joins us from there now. | :14:38. | :14:46. | |
What was the reaction? Well the reaction from people has bedn very | :14:47. | :14:53. | |

to treat both men. He had a profound impact on their lives. For the men | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
who owe so much to his pioneering skill it was like seeing an old | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
friendly face from decades ago. Jerry is 93. Back in 1941 hhs | :15:19. | :15:25. | |

burnt. Sir Archibald McIndod helped to rebuild him. Once I left hospital | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
I was so confident, I never looked back. And seeing that unveiled? | :15:37. | :15:47. | |

for living. He was such a brilliant man. I owe him a great deal. He | :16:01. | :16:08. | |
restored me to such a condition that I was able to lead a successful | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
career. He brought me back self`respect and confidence in | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
facing life again. The patidnts became known as the guinea pig. It | :16:23. | :16:27. | |

heroism and glory but about the people who went on to thrivd because | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
they were treated with the kind of compassion that he showed them. And | :16:53. | :16:56. | |

believes to be a puma There have been several othdr | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
sightings of a large animal spotted at the tourist attraction | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
on the Kent/Sussex border. Last Saturday David took photographs | :18:14. | :18:27. | |
of the sunset at Bewl Water. If you look closely at this one it is | :18:28. | :18:34. | |

Water, pleasure seekers and walkers. But none so far have ever been | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
confirmed. Neil Arnold is a renowned big cat expert. He studied the | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
picture and thinks it could be a genuine sighting. The image suggests | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
it could be a young or possibly it could be a young or posshbly | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
female humour swimming across the lake. Other people have put forward | :19:19. | :19:24. | |

picnic but he captured a couple of picnic but he captured a couple of | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
nights ago. You always hear rumours about the cats. And you think I do | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
not believe that. But having seen the photographs, it looks | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
convincing. So is it or isn't it a big cat? A man who caught it on his | :19:52. | :20:02. | |
camera believes it is. It is a mystery! | :20:03. | :20:10. | |
As far as houses go, a new one in Brighton is certainly unique. | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
