changes to grading and assessment. That is all from the | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Hello and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
programme... Firefighters prepare to strike ` | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
they'll be walking out in just a few minutes. With bonfire and firework | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
events planned, there are concerns about safety. It's one of the | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
busiest times of the year for fire crews. | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Also tonight, growing number of homeless young people. A charity | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
says changes to the benefits system could be a factor. | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
And later on. Looking for Rosie. She left a note on this grave in Jersey | :00:30. | :00:34. | |
saying ` "Great Grandad. Found you at last." | :00:35. | :00:45. | |
As bonfires are lit, people are being warned to be extra vigilent | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
tonight as firefighters have begun a strike across our region. On what's | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
traditionally one of their busiest weekends of the year, they're | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
joining crews across the country walking out in protest at government | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
plans to change their pensions and retirement age. Our reporter Tom | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
Turrell has been at Oxford's central fire station. Until 11pm this | :01:05. | :01:19. | |
evening, firefighters will join national strike action. The problem | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
is that it comes just at the time when people will be lighting | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
bonfires and city love fireworks. That has been led to warnings. The | :01:27. | :01:34. | |
government are trying to force firefighters to work for an extra | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
five years before they get their pension. The unions are not happy | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
about it. It's that time of year again with | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
towns and villages across our region putting on firework displays over | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
the next week or so. But the timing couldn't be worse. For many, like | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
these people in Cholsey, they'll be lighting their bonfire tonight just | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
as firefighters go on strike. It's all because the government wants | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
firefighters to work until they're 60 rather than 55. The union says | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
that's too old for their members to be on the front line. At the moment, | :02:05. | :02:16. | |
up to 66% of firefighters will not be able to maintain fitness after | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
the age of 55. And most people are at risk of being sacked because they | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
are no longer able to do the job. But on the streets of Oxford, | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
opinion's divided. As with all strikes I think they are selfish. | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
They put lots of people lives at risk. I work in a hospital and it | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
makes everybody more anxious. There is a better time they could be doing | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
it. I can understand it because it is a low paid issue. It's been a | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
long running row and it's not the first time firefighters have downed | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
tools over this issue. But despite contingency plans fire chiefs are | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
calling on people to take extra care. We still will be able to | :02:58. | :03:07. | |
respond to all 999 calls. But clearly people need to take more | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
responsibility about their safety to make sure they stay safe through | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
this dispute. As displays across the region get underway, fire bosses | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
will be hoping for a quieter night. Ministers at this action as | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
completely unnecessary and damaging to the reputation of firefighters. | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
But the union says they will strike again on Monday unless their voices | :03:34. | :03:43. | |
are heard over the weekend. Still in your teens, with nowhere to | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
go. That's the situation facing an increasing number of young people in | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
Oxfordshire according to a homelessness charity in Banbury. The | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
Young Homeless Project says it's seen a sudden surge in people | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
needing help and has blamed changes to the benefits system. Victoria | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
Cook reports. Jason Edmunds became homeless last | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
year after suffering family problems. He was only 17. He came | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
here to the Banbury Young Homeless Project when he needed food. They | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
provide support. And activities like this. The support workers have | :04:10. | :04:17. | |
helped me so much through my personal problems. Difficult times | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
that I have been having, the support workers have been there and they are | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
always there to talk to whenever you need a chat. Those here at the | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
project say it's under strain because so many young people are | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
finding themselves homeless. They have seen as many in the last six | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
months as they did in the last year. According to the charity | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
Centrepoint, 80,000 young people are currently homeless in the UK. That's | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
up 5,000 since 2008. It's found that one in every 100 young people aged | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
16`25 have become homeless at some point this year. It has a vacant | :04:53. | :05:04. | |
impact on young people and particularly in relation to anything | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
changes for young people. The local housing allowance and the | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
availability of housing at young people is a massive issue. These | :05:13. | :05:23. | |
guys do care. They will help you if they can. | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
The government says it's given councils extra funding this year to | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
help vulnerable residents. It says changes to the benefits system are | :05:29. | :05:43. | |
fair. Homelessness protection is one of the key areas for this council. | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
Not only because of the council there are severe financial | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
consequences but we know that homelessness can wreck people 's | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
lives. To continue to offer help, they say they have to rely on | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
donations and volunteers more than ever. | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
Putting a new tax on sugary drinks could cut obesity in the UK | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
according to researchers at Oxford University. They claim imposing a | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
20% tax would reduce the number of obese adults by 180,000 ` and raise | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
more than ?275 million for the public purse. The researchers from | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
the British Heart Foundation Group at Oxford University have published | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
their findings in the British Medical Journal. | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
Plans have been announced in Reading for a major programme to tackle a | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
shortage of primary school places. New classes will be created at 12 | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
schools and a new academy will be built in the Oxford Road area. In | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
all, 2,500 more places will be provided over the next seven years. | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
Reading Borough Council is expecting to borrow ?30 million to pay for the | :06:47. | :06:55. | |
expansion. We have received 19 million from the government which is | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
to be welcomed, but it is only the third of the money to run the place. | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
So we will fund it ourselves as a council. | :07:06. | :07:06. | |
Banbury could get a new hotel, cinema, supermarket and restaurants. | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
Plans to extend the Castle Quay centre have been submitted to | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
Cherwell District Council. It's estimated the expansion could create | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
the equivalent of 37 full`time jobs. Building an extension on your home | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
is getting easier from today in some areas of Buckinghamshire. Aylesbury | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
Vale District Council is making it simpler to get permission for bigger | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
extensions ` without all the red tape. The government's already | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
relaxed planning laws for some home improvements, but Aylesbury Vale's | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
become one of the first authorities in the country to go even further. | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
Charlotte Stacey reports. Piles of paperwork and weeks of | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
waiting, the planning office is cutting the bureaucracy for small | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
household extensions from today. This way we get the applicant to do | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
the processes themselves. This safeguards their neighbours as well | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
because we will make sure their late line is observed. Last year David | :08:03. | :08:13. | |
Cameron announced he wanted to cut planning applications for small jobs | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
but the council is doing even more. They are slashing normal application | :08:18. | :08:24. | |
time by a quarter. The order will apply to most single, 2`storey and | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
first`floor extensions and single`storey side extensions. All | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
the application forms and now online. Under the new order their | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
homeowner is responsible for ensuring all the guidelines are met | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
and they have to inform their neighbour before submitting an | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
application. They should speed up the process for everyone. It is | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
time. Customers have to wait a long time for building to proceed and | :09:00. | :09:02. | |
people 's jobs don't get done. With the new situation it is able to be | :09:03. | :09:12. | |
turned round very quickly. There are exemptions such as listed buildings | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
and people living in conservation areas but the council says overall | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
it will help smooth the process for the hundreds of people who apply the | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
planning permission every year. Before we go, congratulations to our | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
colleagues at BBC Radio Oxford who won more awards than any other local | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
radio station at a ceremony last night. The station picked up three | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
Frank Gillard Awards, at an event to recognise excellence in BBC Local | :09:37. | :09:45. | |
Radio. The station was rewarded for its coverage of the Oxford Child | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
Exploitation Case, and for its sports programming. That's all from | :09:49. | :09:54. | |
me for the moment. I'll be back at 10.25. Now more of today's stories | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
with Sally Taylor. which has committed to buy the | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
finished hotel for ?27.5 million. Still to come in this evening's | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
South Today: Alexis is out tonight at a Children In Need event. Join | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
the later in Swanage for a special Children In Need challenge. | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
Should the church be taking on high`street lenders? In July, the | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
Archbishop of Canterbury announced he wanted the church to offer its | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
own short`term loans but at lower rates of interest. It was an idea | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
that began with a former accountant who's now a reverend in the | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
Salisbury diocese. This week he's been speaking to the Sunday Politics | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
and our political editor Peter Henley joins me now. Peter, what's | :10:40. | :10:50. | |
he been saying? He shares a background in business with Justin | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
Welby. They want to take a more practical approach. They want to get | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
actively involved where they think they are our problems. One area they | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
are encouraging the church to get involved in is lending money. Local | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
credit unions like this one in Dorset, it is the huge interest | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
rates charged by commercial payday lenders for small amounts of money | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
that he thinks is sinful. He is encouraging church people to do what | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
they can to provide an alternative. I think our legislators are weak. In | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
America, many state legislators have outlawed payday lending as a social | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
evil. If they can do that, I think our legislators can be tough on | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
payday lenders. In the Bible, Jesus through the moneylenders out of the | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
temple. He says so long as a credit union is run for mutual benefit, it | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
is covering costs rather than making profit, that is all right. There | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
were mixed views among people we spoke to. Low interest. Church is to | :11:54. | :12:02. | |
do with religion not finance. There are a lot of poor people about and I | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
think they should. It can be dangerous because sometimes there is | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
a danger it could go wrong. Where will it stop? Will churches get | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
involved with the electricity market, trying to undercut cos? Will | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
people be criticised, Vickers, for getting people involved in schemes | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
if they go bust? That is the debate we will have with our guests, a | :12:27. | :12:34. | |
Liberal Democrat MP from Dorset and a Conservative MP. | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
You will also be discussing the regulation of the press? We have a | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
local newspaper editor who will not be signing up to the new press | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
regulation. And you can join Peter for the | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
Sunday Politics this Sunday from 11am on BBC One. | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
A record attempt to row a million meters, a pantomime horse travelling | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
from Leeds and a 12`hour continuous run. Combine it all with a giant | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
bear and it can all only mean one thing. Yes, we're just a fortnight | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
away from Children In Need and tonight the fundraising is already | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
well under way in Swanage. And Alexis Green is there for us now. | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
Alexis, what's going on? Fun day out? Certainly was. Lots | :13:18. | :13:25. | |
happening in Swanage tonight and tomorrow. I have been meeting some | :13:26. | :13:27. | |
of the people fundraising for Children In Need. It was all hands | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
on hammer to prepare for tomorrow's Children In Need challenge at | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
Swanage holiday Park. We are lending a helping hand. We will have this | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
done by tomorrow! The excitement was building for one of the challenges, | :13:47. | :13:56. | |
named the bear. They will be making their way back to Swanage without | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
spending any money. It will be hard. We are going to try to get to Leeds | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
and after Leeds down to Leicester and try and get on the motorway. | :14:06. | :14:16. | |
Getting in a bit of last`minute practice in and around Swanage. | :14:17. | :14:33. | |
Horses that platform to, please. `` horses to platform two, please. | :14:34. | :14:45. | |
Sorry. Then it was a quick gallop back for the big sendoff. CHEERING | :14:46. | :14:58. | |
We were there to do the honours and there was plenty of support for the | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
eight volunteers heading to the airport to fly to Leeds. | :15:03. | :15:15. | |
Hopefully those eight volunteers made it to Leeds in time. They will | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
be starting off at 8am tomorrow to make it back to Swanage. Let us talk | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
to other fundraisers. The headmistress of the primary school. | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
What are you doing? We are bouncing the same distance it takes children | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
in Uganda every day to walk to get water. Two other fundraisers who | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
have been busy for the last few days attempting to break a world record | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
in rowing a million metres. It is for days, six hours, 32 minutes. | :15:47. | :15:53. | |
Well done. How are you feeling? I am doing well. I get a break every hour | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
when we swapped over. When do you expect to finish? 11, 12 o'clock | :15:59. | :16:07. | |
tonight. Fingers crossed you smashed the record. Lots going on here. Live | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
music here tomorrow and other events. Do come down if you are out | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
and about in Swanage. Doing a grand job. Good luck over | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
the weekend. We will come back to you for the weather in a few | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
minutes. We will be heading to the cricket nets in a moment. First, can | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
Southampton maintain their excellent start? Here is the man who can tell | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
us. Last week, Southampton swept past | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
Fulham at St Mary's, a performance hailed by the pundits as one of | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
their best in recent times. Normally, nine games into the | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
season, you can see a pattern emerging. Manchester United not even | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
on the table. Southampton, fantastic. Last week, they swept | :16:52. | :16:58. | |
past Fulham, a performance hailed as one of their best in recent times. | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
New additions like Victor Wanyama and Dejan Lovren have added some | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
spine to the team, a team which has conceded only three goals this | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
season. Up front, Rickie Lambert was back on target last week. As they | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
travel to Stoke, he's admitted European football is certainly on | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
the players' minds. It is incredible. When we were in league | :17:18. | :17:25. | |
one, I think we were mostly thinking that the Premier League was eight | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
distant dream. We have showed people it was possible. `` a distant dream. | :17:31. | :17:36. | |
It is going to be hard but that is what we are striving for. If it | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
happens this year, it would be brilliant. If it doesn't, that is | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
what we will try to do next year. Here's the weekend's other football, | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
all of it live on BBC local radio. Reading's trip to Sheffield | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
Wednesday is one of the featured matches on the Football League Show | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
after Match of the Day. In league one, Swindon and MK Dons both face | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
home games. In league two, two community`backed clubs play each | :17:58. | :17:59. | |
other as Portsmouth face Exeter. We'll have the main talking points | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
on Monday. We were with Poole Town in the non | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
league on Friday. Tonight, we have a chance to highlight Salisbury City's | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
excellent start to the season. They're up to fourth in the | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
Conference Premier after a fine win over Hereford last night. Clovis | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
Kamdjo headed in the first. Daniel Fitchett got two on the night, his | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
first effort was deflected. Hereford got one back just before the hour | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
before Flitchett was on hand again to turn in from close range. The | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
goal of the game came deep into stoppage time, Ben Wright from | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
distance. Probably the best of the game. A great win for Salisbury. | :18:39. | :18:49. | |
Well done to them. Six British sailors, many of them | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
from the south, set sail in the Transat Jacques Vabres race this | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
weekend. The event is a two`handed race which sees multi`hull and | :18:57. | :18:58. | |
mono`hull boats sail from Le Havres in France to Brazil. It's a big | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
moment for Southampton`based Sam Goodchild and Ned Collier Wakefield | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
from Sussex. Two years ago, they were forced to withdraw mid`event, | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
but are hoping for better in their new`look boat. We put in a lot of | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
effort last time and we got up to the leader of the race and | :19:13. | :19:14. | |
unfortunately hit something in the night and had to retire. Unfinished | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
business. We have a fantastic new toy and we are both hugely excited. | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
We have not had enough time but there is never enough time. We're | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
looking forward to Sunday. We will have a report on Monday night's | :19:28. | :19:34. | |
programme. Now to a cricket net with a | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
difference. A brother and sister gathered a group of youngsters from | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
Lymington Cricket Club to help them hold a very special cricket practice | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
at Walhampton School in Hampshire. It started yesterday, but they were | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
still going when I went down there this morning to turn my arm over. | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
They bowled ball after ball after ball. This 24`hour cricket marathon | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
was the idea of Cameron and Francesca. It meant a lot to them. | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
Recently, my grandma fell ill with a brain tumour. Rather than just | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
standing back and watching, we wanted to help in a different way, | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
help other people. Other people in that situation and who could benefit | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
from the help from the charity which we chose. 22 of the kids started the | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
challenge at 10am yesterday. We are 23 and a half hours later, almost | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
10,000 balls bowled later, I thought I would have a go myself. Here we | :20:32. | :20:39. | |
go. I am a bit rusty but why did the children choose cricket for the | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
challenge? We wanted to raise money and do it with something we liked so | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
we thought we should do a cricket match will stop we are a lot more | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
accurate than we used to be. Urine we did in the daytime so we did not | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
have to lose sleep like other people `` we did it in the daytime. I gave | :20:58. | :21:05. | |
them a few tips and I hope they keep working on it because there is a lot | :21:06. | :21:13. | |
of talent right here. As the clock ticks, the Jordan had raised more | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
than ?10,000 for the charity. Test match tickets as a surprise. After a | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
round 1600 overs bowled, it was over and out and time for bed. | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
Very well done. Most of them just waking up in time to watch the | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
television tonight. Very good bowlers. | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
You could tell I was a wicket to `` wicketkeeper! | :21:42. | :21:52. | |
We are trying to find Rosie from the Isle of Wight who left a touching | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
message on the grave of her grandfather. We have been finding | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
out more about the story. It all started when this sign | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
appeared on a World War One grave at a cemetery in Jersey. A BBC Radio | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
Jersey reporter became intrigued and started to research the background | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
of Private George Hanlon. The Isle of Wight clue proved fruitful. | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
Documents traced George back to there. The 1911 census records | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
George as living here in Fort Street in Sandown, together with his wife | :22:20. | :22:27. | |
Ellenor. At that time the pair had four children ` Martha`Ann, | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
Frederick, Joseph and Mary. George was working locally at a golf club. | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
Records show that in 1914, aged 43, he worked as a barman near the | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
railway station in Sandown. George, who'd previously served in the Royal | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
Artillery, joined the Royal Defence Corps and was guarding a prisoner of | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
war camp on Jersey when he died in 1916. His cause of death was not | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
listed. This morning BBC Radio Solent put out an appeal to find the | :22:48. | :22:50. | |
mysterious great`granddaughter Rosie, but instead found Brian | :22:51. | :22:52. | |
Hanlon, one of George's grandchildren who lives in Romsey. | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
He has photos of his grandfather and has researched the family tree, but | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
doesn't know of his distant cousin Rosie. It seems George left behind | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
quite a large family. He had nine children, I had 32 cousins. There | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
were 32 children in those nine marriages and there's no`one called | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
Rosie amongst those. But of course it could have been one of their | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
children. It could be her great great grandfather, but I don't know. | :23:23. | :23:28. | |
I'd like to know who Rosie is as well. So, we've learned something of | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
an old soldier who died serving his country nearly a century ago, but | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
the identity of Rosie whose quest led to this touching tribute remains | :23:36. | :23:43. | |
a mystery. So, the mystery partially solved, | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
but we'd love to speak to Rosie herself. Can you help us find her? | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
If so, please email us or contact us via Twitter or the BBC South Today | :23:54. | :24:06. | |
