Tonight's headlines: They're fleeing war zones. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Criticism of the UK government for giving up without enough | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
discussion on a scheme to find homes for vulnerable child refugees. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
A detailed study shows a healthy lifestyle can reduce | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
The UK Government has given up on a scheme set up to protect | :00:12. | :00:35. | |
the most vulnerable child refugees without enough discussion. | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
That's according to the leader of Torfaen Council. | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
Labour's Anthony Hunt told Wales Today that he and other | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
council leaders would work with the Home Office, | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
350 child refugees will have arrived in the UK by the time | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
the scheme ends in March, with 32 having already | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
Fire lights up the sky above Calais in France last year as the makeshift | :00:50. | :01:03. | |
Sam from Newport was part of a volunteer group which took | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
There were children there sleeping under those blankets. | :01:07. | :01:16. | |
We had to go to the warehouse and fetch blankets. | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
She claims in several short visits over 18 months she met more than 150 | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
children who had no one at all to look after them. | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
These children are alone and all they have learnt | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
to do is keep walking, keep walking, keep walking, | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
and then they get to Calais, which is the end of the road, | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
and they don't know where to walk now because all they knew | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
was that they lost their parents somewhere along the road | :01:40. | :01:41. | |
From places like Syria, the UK accepted around 8000 child | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
Many who leave war zones make their own way to Europe, many | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
Some hoped as many as 3000 might be resettled here who don't have any | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
The government has confirmed that it will be far lower than that. | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
Many councils in Wales say that announcement was premature. | :02:01. | :02:09. | |
We have not reached a definite position | :02:10. | :02:10. | |
This is disappointing really that we find out that the government | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
seemed to have given up on the situation. | :02:15. | :02:22. | |
Your message to the Home Secretary then as a leader | :02:23. | :02:24. | |
Let's work together, let's have constructive talks to see, | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
given the funding and given that we get the technicalities right | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
because we want to make things better, not worse, | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
you know, that is a given, but let's talk more. | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
Some councils say they do have capacity, others none at all. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
Conservative MP David Davies says the UK Government has | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
The government are absolutely right to do this. | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
It had to be in place for a short period of time only | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
because otherwise what happens is that the parents in countries | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
with much lower living standards will simply try | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
and send their children over by themselves in order to get them | :02:57. | :02:58. | |
into Western Europe and then follow them afterwards, so the government | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
are right to do this because they are going to... | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
You are going to create a human catastrophe if you encourage people | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
Judges are now considering whether the UK Government's decision | :03:07. | :03:15. | |
The Home Office maintains it is not giving up on vulnerable children, | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
citing other schemes it operates that have also resettled hundreds | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
It's a disease that affects more than 42,000 people in Wales | :03:22. | :03:34. | |
and a campaign has been launched, aimed at reducing people's | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
It's based on detailed research that found those who adopt | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
a healthy lifestyle, are 60% less likely | :03:41. | :03:41. | |

Since her daughter started a fitness business in the area, | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
Julie Rhodes has become a bit of a zumba fan, attending | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
It helps me mentally, keeps me alert. | :04:00. | :04:08. | |
My dad, who is now 95, he is suffering with memory loss | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
and to see it is such a shame, it is such a sad illness to see. | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
So I would like to prevent it, if at all possible. | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
Keeping fit is one of the steps recommended by the dementia | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
Launched today, it also encourages people to check their health | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
regularly, cut down on alcohol, and stop smoking in a bid to reduce | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
the risk of developing dementia by up to 60%. | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Six tips in all, based on research conducted on these men. | :04:32. | :04:33. | |
In total, there were 2500 of them from the Caerphilly area | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
who were prodded untested for a generation in one of the most | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
influential research projects of its time. | :04:40. | :04:40. | |
We all know that it is beneficial but actually disciplining | :04:41. | :05:00. | |
and getting round to following healthy behaviours | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
consistently, for some reason, it beats most of us. | :05:05. | :05:07. | |

He is one of more than 42,000 people in Wales suffering from the disease. | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
Nobody would object to a campaign that advises people | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
It won't guarantee that you won't get dementia. | :05:30. | :05:39. | |
What concerns me is that it doesn't solve the problems | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
People are already living with dementia and their carers. | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
The latest statistics I read was that the numbers | :05:47. | :05:57. | |

You may need your long johns this weekend. It is going to stay cold | :07:53. | :08:17. | |
and windy. Some dry weather but also some wintry showers. A little snow | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
on some of the hills and mountains. Most places dry tonight. A | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
widespread frost and you may be lucky and catch a glimpse of the | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
lunar eclipse. Tomorrow morning, as dry in parts of the South and West. | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
Elsewhere, Cloud increasing with a few wintry showers. Most of the snow | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
on the hills and mountains. Across the rest of the UK, wintry showers | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
will spread further westwards to ring the day. Most of the snow on | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
higher ground. The best of the sunshine in the far north and west | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
