Crime in the region is down despite police basing austerity measures. A | :00:16. | :00:24. | |
fire ripped through a supermarket. Meet Trevor who is befriending | :00:24. | :00:34. | |
:00:34. | :00:47. | ||
They are having to cope with cuts of �36 million yet Thames Valley's | :00:47. | :00:54. | |
police ability to cope with crime has not been affected. While both | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
forces are cutting down overall staff numbers they are committed to | :00:58. | :01:04. | |
increasing the proportion of officers on front-line duties. | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
These reports are looking at how our police forces have coped since the | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
spending cuts were introduced in 2010. Thames Valley already have | :01:13. | :01:20. | |
lower costs. They have had to work hard to drive out inefficiencies. | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
They are looking at things like the costs of goods and services. They | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
are working more closely with Hampshire for things like firearms | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
units and dogs unit will stop inspectors say it is because the | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
force took decisive action to use a call they have managed to make these | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
cuts, but Crane has still fallen, and public satisfaction is still | :01:41. | :01:51. | |
up. # train has still fallen. There was a lot of concern when | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
these cuts were imposed. Do these figures show that the concerns were | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
unfounded? These forces have had positive results. | :02:03. | :02:13. | |
:02:13. | :02:14. | ||
There are more cuts to come. Concern will continue. | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
A toddler playing in a park needed hospital treatment after picking up | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
a paper wrap bots to contain drugs. Police are warning parents to be | :02:24. | :02:34. | |
:02:34. | :02:36. | ||
vigilant. -- paper wrap that was thought to contain drugs. The boy | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
was kept overnight in hospital for observation and his condition is not | :02:40. | :02:49. | |
serious. This is a big open space. Lots of people use it. They should | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
be thinking about other people. It is dreadful. You are in the park | :02:57. | :03:05. | |
enjoying the day and suddenly there is a risk. That is as scary factor. | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
The number of women having abortions in the region has increased by one | :03:11. | :03:21. | |
third over the last four years. The increase has been mainly among | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
20-year-olds to 24-year-olds and the over 35 's. A supermarket has been | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
damaged by fire. Fire broke out at the store in | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
Kidlington this morning. Firefighters say the damage would | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
have been more severe had they not arrived on site so quickly. The fire | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
station is just across the road. The severe heat caused shelves to buckle | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
and the products to disintegrate. Investigators are hoping CCTV | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
footage will help them confirm the cause of this fire. At this stage it | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
is thought to be accidental rather than deliberate. When we turned up | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
we find that the windows were blackened. | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
There was a lot of heat coming through. We had to force entry | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
inside. We found a rapidly developing fire on the ground | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
floor. These fires are particularly dangerous because of the amount of | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
combustibles present and also because of the layout. It is | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
difficult for our crews in those type of buildings. | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
The high Street had to be closed temporarily this morning. News of | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
the fire spread quickly. Last week we had the seizure round the corner | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
from where I lived. Now we have a co-op. | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
A spokesman said they would work hard to reopen the store quickly, | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
but at the moment it is not possible to see when that might be. | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
The store was empty when the fire started. There has been a huge | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
amount of damage inside. What officers above buildings alongside | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
the consequences could have been worse had the fire service not what | :05:01. | :05:11. | |
:05:11. | :05:11. | ||
they are within one minute of the alarm being raised. | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
Staff at Radcliffe Hospital are putting the finishing touches to a | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
new baby care unit. It will open in two weeks time. Our reporter has | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
been to meet one mother who credits the hospital with saving the life of | :05:24. | :05:31. | |
her son. Daddy 's hand was over in your | :05:31. | :05:41. | |
:05:41. | :05:44. | ||
head. Finley was born prematurely. He needed specialist care and | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
round-the-clock monitoring. The team at the John Radcliffe Hospital were | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
able to give him a fighting answer. They supported our family throughout | :05:51. | :06:01. | |
:06:01. | :06:01. | ||
that entire time. Our family has been so fortunate to have this so | :06:01. | :06:10. | |
close to us. At the hospital new machines are being checked ready for | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
babies to arrive here soon. The numbers born prematurely are | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
steadily increasing. The need for more space was urgent. Once this | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
unit is fully open babies will be coming in with very special | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
requirements. Each of these cots will have a nurse monitoring the | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
babies 24-7. It is hoped this will be a hub for | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
the entire region. New mothers can come here rather than travel miles | :06:39. | :06:48. | |
away. It can be destructive for families wherever they are. You have | :06:48. | :06:58. | |
:06:58. | :06:59. | ||
to try and make things as good as you can for parents. Nursing staff | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
say the extension will make their working life much easier. It will be | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
amazing for the nurses. They are so excited about moving in. The unit | :07:10. | :07:17. | |
will be open in July 29. Commercial flights from Oxford to | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
Edinburgh and Dublin are being axed following a dispute between the | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
airport and the operator. Minoan Air says it is with drawing its services | :07:25. | :07:32. | |
following a disagreement with the airport's management. Yesterday an | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
aircraft was blocked in by trucks. A spokesperson for the airport said it | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
is disappointing. Electric cars are still not comment | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
but an energy company wants to find out how it might cope in the when | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
more drivers are plugging in their cars rather than filling up at | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
petrol stations. The project funded by Ofgem will test the local | :07:57. | :08:05. | |
electricity grid. Our reporter tells us more. | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
You still do not see many on the road but it is predict its more | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
people will drive electric cars. That means more money to be charged. | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
The people behind the project are hoping they will be apt to ten | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
people using electric cars and bringing them home to charge. We are | :08:25. | :08:34. | |
looking at different environments. Rural environments, urban | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
environments, they are all different. We are also looking at | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
the commercial aspect. You make drive to work and charge your | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
vehicle at work. There are only 3000 fully electric cars across the | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
country. Letting them into not does not beget huge impact on the | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
national grid. The number is set to double this year. Energy companies | :09:00. | :09:08. | |
will lead to cope with demand and possible surge is. To charge one | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
electric car is equivalent at the moment to have your electric shower | :09:15. | :09:22. | |
on for eight hours. We are trying to manage the impact of people putting | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
the kettle on as normal and including the use of electric cars. | :09:28. | :09:36. | |
Ten people have signed up to the trial will stop I am interested to | :09:36. | :09:43. | |
see the technology. You do not see too many electric cars on the road. | :09:43. | :09:53. | |
:09:53. | :09:53. | ||
I live quite close to the factory. Drayson Racing will install charging | :09:53. | :10:01. | |
points at their actively for staff on the trial. We believe that | :10:01. | :10:11. | |
:10:11. | :10:13. | ||
electric vehicles are the future. We would like to see an increase in the | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
number of people driving these vehicles. The energy company hopes | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
to build an electricity network fit for the future will stop a new | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
chapel at an Oxfordshire college has been shortlisted for a knack | :10:29. | :10:39. | |
