The families say they remain hopeful and optimistic but as the d`ys tick | :03:34. | :03:37. | |

led to a life`changing and possibly life`saving molent | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
He only found out he had cancer in March, not long | :04:48. | :04:57. | |
His only hope, a stem cell transplant, | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
The race was on and that's where the internet stepped in. | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
Mike Brandon and his fiance, Kate Robertoson, were told that `fter | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
his current course of chemotherapy he desperately needed a transplant. | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
The #Shake4Mike appeal was Kate s answer. | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
All of our friends quite like doing shaky faces. Within the first 4 | :05:29. | :05:36. | |
hours of the campaign being launched, we had 2136 peopld | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
registered to be a donor. Mike's best chance of a match, | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
another man under the age of 30 Here, his friends were encotraging | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
people to sign up at a Soon people were shaking | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
their faces and sharing the message, and less than a month since it | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
began, a donor has now been found. In the Bristol area alone, | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
the increase in potential donors In a normal week in May, | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
the Anthony Nolan Trust would expect around 165 people to join | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
the register of potential donors. This year, that number jumpdd to | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
4,120, an increase the charhty #Shake4Mike has provided many | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
amusing pictures, a tonic for the patient him | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
self who's laughed out loud at many of them, but more importantly, | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
Kate's campaign has found the person who could potentiallx save | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
the life of her future husb`nd. Ann O'Leary is | :06:25. | :06:36. | |
from the charity Anthony Nolan. What does this mean for Mikd's | :06:37. | :06:56. | |
chances? A chance of life which we `` it chance of life which he would | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
not have otherwise had. I h`ve met thousands of people who are looking | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
for a match when one is found, that is the life`saving opportunhty. What | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
has been extraordinary is the number of people who have volunteered to be | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
donors. We have been really encouraged by the number of people | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
who have come forward. We h`ve had more than 7000 applications for | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
people to join the register and we are so delighted that he has his | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
opportunity for a transplant. What do you have to do to actually | :07:33. | :07:41. | |
register yourself? You just need to go to the website and if yot are | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
16`30, you can join the reghster. You fill in an online application | :07:47. | :07:55. | |
form and send us a kid in the post. If you come up with a match, there | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
are two ways of donating. The most common is to your bloodstre`m. How | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
many people are trying to fhnd a match? Every year, 1800 people come | :08:07. | :08:15. | |
to us in the UK, and 37,000 people worldwide are looking for a match | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
any one time. Anyone who has joined the register could have the chance | :08:20. | :08:20. | |
of being a match. A coroner has criticised | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
the Ministry of Defence after two young soldiers didd | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
in a tent fire in Afghanist`n. Private Dean Hutchinson, | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
who was based at Hullavington barracks, died alongside Prhvate Rob | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
Wood when an overloaded extdnsion lead set fire to their tent at | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
Camp Bastion while they slept. As their inquest concluded today, | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
the Wiltshire coroner said there had been a systemic failure | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
by the MoD to train troops to spot Camp Bastian, a relatively safe | :08:45. | :09:05. | |
haven for soldiers. But it was here were two young privates perhshed | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
when the time they were sledping in caught fire on Valentine's Day in | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
2011. Dean was described as his friends as the centre of thd | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
troop's morale. Dean was a soldier and we will always be immensely | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
proud of him and the fact hd served his country. But we feel he should | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
never have lost his life in the way that he did. We are pleased that the | :09:35. | :09:45. | |
coroner's conclusion reflects the Army's incompetence in not carrying | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
out the correct procedures to ensure Dean's safety. Known to his friends | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
as Woody, Rob also died in ` fire. Both men had slept on camp beds | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
while on a night shift inside the tent. Another colleague went to be | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
thick black smoke inside and was able to escape. Plugged into an | :10:12. | :10:19. | |
extension lead inside, therd had been a boiler, a TV and chiller | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
Cabinet running that night. The inquest heard that they had | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
overlooked the extension le`d and started the fire. There was nothing | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
to warn the men sleeping inside The coroner said: | :10:32. | :10:41. | |
The fact the smoke detector wasn't working mental mode `` meant both | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
men had no warning. The onlx entrance to the tent was engulfed by | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
flames. Our thoughts remain with the families and friends of the two men. | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
Their loss continues to be felt within the regiments and wider | :11:04. | :11:12. | |
Corp. Both men were highly dedicated professionals and proud to serve | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
their country. The coroner said there had been a systemic f`ilure in | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
not training soldiers to recognise the possible dangers from | :11:22. | :11:22. | |
overloading the electricity supply. This is Alex and David with you | :11:23. | :11:40. | |

in their droves? It's said to be quite patchx, | :12:07. | :12:16. | |
low in some areas, high in others, so perhaps big visual reminders | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
like this giant ballot box do help. There is still time to have | :12:21. | :12:31. | |
your say, should you wish, as those polling stations, whether | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
pubs or leisure centres, schools or There are two elections | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
at play here. The first affects | :12:38. | :12:47. | |
the whole continent. It's the elections to the | :12:48. | :12:48. | |
European Parliament and the South West will choose six Duro MPs | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
to return to Brussels. That's from eight parties that you | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
will find on the ballot papdr. There are also local elections | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
in five of the West's towns and cities with a total | :12:58. | :13:00. | |
of 96 council seats up for grabs. In Cheltenham, it's half thd | :13:01. | :13:08. | |
council that is up for election In Bristol, Stroud, Swindon and | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
Gloucester, it is one third of the As for the results, | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
we can expect some They are counting tomorrow | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
in Cheltenham and Stroud and then Sunday night, | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
when the polls have closed `cross the continent, we will find out who | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
the South West's new MEPs whll be. And I'll be burning | :13:27. | :13:42. | |

on your BBC local radio station Fewer patients are dying | :13:49. | :14:08. | |
after a controversial downgrading of Cheltenham's Accident | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
and Emergency Service. That's according to health bosses | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
in the county almost a year after they decided to send | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
night`time ambulances to But as our health correspondent | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
Matthew Hill, reports, some local The bosses in charge of this | :14:20. | :14:37. | |
emergency department say thdy simply can't recruit enough trained doctors | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
to fill consultant posts. That's one of the reasons why the hosphtal will | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
only deal with the wounded between 8pm and eight a.m.. For these | :14:48. | :14:56. | |
patients, it has come at a price. To go to Gloucester is ridiculous. We | :14:57. | :15:11. | |
were there from 4am until two p m.. I was with others in a corrhdor My | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
ambulance crew had to stay with me because AME were not expecthng | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
anybody. People were vomiting, who were in a far worse situation than I | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
was. This consolidation of dmergency services is not just happenhng in | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
Gloucestershire. In Bristol, the most sick children with tratmas or | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
major head injuries started to come here for the first time. Th`t means | :15:41. | :15:49. | |
consultants can work later hnto the night. They say it is a far safer | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
model of care. Health bosses in Gloucestershire say since the | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
changes came in last August, overall, more patients are being | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
treated in under an hour. Ddath rates are lower and there are no | :16:03. | :16:10. | |
signs of more complaints. When we look at the other market, there is | :16:11. | :16:18. | |
no sign of patient complaints going up, feedback from trainees hs better | :16:19. | :16:25. | |
than it was this time last xear But these campaigners say their voices | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
are not being heard. He loved sailing. It was a sailor's | :16:28. | :17:03. | |
ambition. A final decision on who looks | :17:04. | :17:14. | |
after the mentally ill in Bristol will be made next week, with one MP | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
saying this is a "once in a The NHS put | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
the ?100 million contract ott to tender after a turbulent few years | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
in the city when a group of doctors tried to break away from | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
the main Wiltshire`based provider. So will things finally change | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
for the better? It's not always easy to see | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
when people have problems whth their mental health but it `ffects | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
thousands in Bristol. Who looks after them is changing, | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
with new five`year contracts The winner | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
of the new ?100 million contract will be announced next week with | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
the bulk of the money for frontline community services like assdssment, | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
recovery and crisis managemdnt. The details have taken years to | :18:02. | :18:10. | |
work out and the stakes are high. This does provide for us in Bristol | :18:11. | :18:18. | |
a once in a generation opportunity to try | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
and get this right and I believe we Especially | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
for the people who use the service, a leaked letter shows they want to | :18:26. | :18:33. | |
be at its heart so they can live optimistic lives, something that | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
hasn't always happened in the past. I've treated hundreds | :18:38. | :18:45. | |
of people who are very unwell with For many, | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
including this award`winning author Whoever wins the tender, | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
the important thing is that isn t read as a signal to be complacent | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
and to sit back. Once this tender is out of | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
the way and there's some st`bility, that's the time for whoever wins it | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
to really start listening and engaging with people who use it | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
and people on the front lind. But past mistakes are being | :19:07. | :19:16. | |
acknowledged and promises m`de about a joined`up, | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
timely and well`staffed service I don't think changing the culture | :19:20. | :19:39. | |
of an organisation happens puickly but I think we are on that start of | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
that journey. A journey everyone knows will | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
involve huge cultural changd. That begins if the contracts are | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
officially signed next week. A few months ago, Somerset was | :19:52. | :20:04. | |
dealing with those devastathng floods. People lost their homes and | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
livelihoods. Today, televishon screens are filled with pictures of | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
the Balkans as they, too, are inundated. | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
A three`month`old baby rescted from a flooded village in Bosnia. The | :20:22. | :20:28. | |
flood water is causing devastation in neighbouring Serbia. Half a | :20:29. | :20:30. | |
million people had to flee their homes. In Somerset, the flooding was | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
different. But it does make you think back to what we did hdre in | :20:40. | :20:49. | |
Somerset. Tim is a volunteer. The group was formed during the flooding | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
crisis on the Somerset Levels earlier this year. He will be one of | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
two volunteers flying out to Serbia tomorrow. We are doing crazx stuff | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
here, floating cars out and sandbagging, but the water hs deeper | :21:03. | :21:10. | |
and more dangerous out therd. It will help people more who h`ve | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
evacuated. We are nervous btt excited. Donated welly turns, hand | :21:14. | :21:31. | |
sanitisers. Clothes, medical needs, everything that we needed in the | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
beginning when our village was flooded. In the last hour, ` company | :21:37. | :21:44. | |
in Bristol have offered to transport all of this for free. There, it will | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
be put on a plane and flown out by the Serbian embassy. | :21:52. | :22:00. | |
It is admirable, isn't it? Somerset have beaten Durham in Taunton this | :22:01. | :22:13. | |
afternoon. They set a target of 248 to win. | :22:14. | :22:27. | |
A new outdoor theatre performance featuring free runners gets its | :22:28. | :22:38. | |
premiere later tonight. It `ll takes place on a giant purpose`buhlt | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
rooftop and hundreds of audhence members filled the space beneath. | :22:43. | :22:49. | |
A set which took four days to build, creating the roof whhch will | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
come alive for the first tile tonight. Dancers and perforlers will | :22:54. | :23:02. | |
use it as their stage. We wdre interested in creating a sense of | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
risk and physical excitement and we found that to create a sens`tion of | :23:07. | :23:16. | |
risk, it has to be risky in itself. It has been a fascinating thing to | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
get into. These free running techniques have mainly been taught | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
during rehearsals made famots through adverts in film, it is | :23:27. | :23:35. | |
thought to be a theatrical debut. This gives you an idea of the height | :23:36. | :23:49. | |
of these platforms. The safdty nets are there for a reason. This shows | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
that the audience will wear headphones. There is both the | :23:55. | :24:03. | |
experience of being in a crowd, but also, a very solitary experhence | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
because of the headphones. The audience are directly connected with | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
the performers. While most dyes will be on the acts on stage, thd | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
crowd's reaction is also vital, with a three week stay at the National | :24:21. | :24:28. | |
