Welcome to the programme. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:07 | |
Tonight's headlines, it's believed a husband and wife, | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
named locally as Kevin and Ruth Burke, were killed | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
in the helicopter crash in Snowdonia, alongside three | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
members of their family. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
As Cardiff and Swansea both bid to be Wales' first | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
major trauma centre, senior doctors say it's | 0:00:17 | 0:00:18 | |
embarrassing that we don't have a dedicated unit already. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
And the increase in number of reported offences | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
of domestic violence. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:32 | |
Good evening. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:48 | |
Five members of the same family were in a helicopter which crashed, | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
sparking a major air and land search across North Wales. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
Their bodies were found earlier. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:55 | |
One couple has been named locally as Kevin and Ruth Burke. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
The privately-owned helicopter vanished yesterday evening, en route | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
to Dublin from the Luton area. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
The wreckage was found in the Rhinog Mountains | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
in Snowdonia National Park. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:04 | |
Roger Pinney reports. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:14 | |
Narrowing the search to South Snowdonia allowed | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
a concentration of effort. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:17 | |
The military joining civilian volunteer teams | 0:01:17 | 0:01:18 | |
from Aberglaslyn and Ogwen Valley. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:19 | |
It must have felt like looking for a needle in a haystack. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
Mid-morning, they found the crash site and the five bodies. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
The news was given at a police press conference. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:32 | |
Poor weather has been hampering the search, | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
with horrendous conditions reducing visibility to less than | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
ten metres at times. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:40 | |
I can sadly now confirm that a crash site has been located and that five | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
people have lost their lives during this incident. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
I am sure you will appreciate this is an agonising time | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
for the families and friends of all involved. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
Our thoughts are very much with them at this time. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:56 | |
This is as close as we can get to the crash site. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
It is in the area behind me in the mist. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
It is a mountainous area, stretching from the A470 the coast | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
at Harlech and Barmouth. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:05 | |
The terrain there, we are told, is extremely hazardous. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
Carol Jarvis was camping in the area. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Conditions for the search teams were appalling, she told me. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:15 | |
The conditions around the lake have been absolutely shocking. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
I've been camping for a couple of weeks and it has been quite nice | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
but it has just got really, really quite bad the last couple | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
of days, especially last night. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:24 | |
You can't really see the top of any of the hills. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
Yes, and the weather doesn't look like it is going to calm down yet. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:34 | |
The helicopter is a Twin Squirrel, manufactured by Airbus. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
It had a range of 500 miles. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:38 | |
It took off from the Luton area yesterday afternoon to make | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
a journey to Dublin. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:42 | |
At some stage, it disappeared from the radar. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:51 | |
I did some of my helicopter flying training in Snowdonia. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
It is awesome scenery but you don't go up there lightly | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
if the cloud is low, you can't see, you don't go | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
because obviously the higher you get, the more the cloud | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
is going to be and you can't see forward and there are big lumps | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
of granite in the way and you don't really want that. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
So you have to take the weather very much into account in North Wales. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
It does surprise me that an experienced pilot would be | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
in that position in that weather at that time. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:18 | |
The helicopter was owned by Kevin and Ruth Burke | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
from near Milton Keynes. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
They are among those who died. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
Mrs Burke is believed to come originally from Dublin. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
Mr Burke from Manchester. | 0:03:24 | 0:03:25 | |
Conditions on the ground improved marginally during the day. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
The investigation into what happened will have already begun. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
The wreckage and the bodies yet need to be recovered. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:36 | |
139 jobs are going at the University of South Wales, that's | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
around 5% of its staff. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
It says costs are rising and it expects student recruitment to fall. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
The institution was formed four years ago, following a merger | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
of Glamorgan and Newport universities and has | 0:03:46 | 0:03:47 | |
around 30,000 students. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:48 | |
The university is not giving a breakdown of how many staff | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
in each area will be affected. | 0:03:51 | 0:04:01 | |
We are aware that yes, within the number of staff that | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
will be cut, it looks proportionately like senior | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
managers, however, this is on the back of year-on-year cuts. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
Front line staff have already been affected, | 0:04:09 | 0:04:10 | |
so we really don't have any more space for any more cuts. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:20 | |
The mother of a man who died after he killed a 22-year-old woman | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
in a hostel has told an inquest the two would still be alive | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
if a police officer had got the psychiatric appointment promised | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
for her son when he was released from prison. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
Matthew Williams attacked and killed Cerys Yemm in Argoed in 2014. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
He died after being tasered by police. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:47 | |
Wales is about to get its first specialist major trauma unit - | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
to treat patients with life threatening injuries. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:51 | |
Senior doctors say the NHS here has fallen behind many developed | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
countries when it comes to treating the most serious injuries - | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
describing it as "embarrassing" that we don't have a dedicated unit | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
already. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:00 | |
Two hospitals are now in the running. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
Our health correspondent, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:03 | |
Owain Clarke, has this exclusive report. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:13 | |
This is where my car was actually on its side, | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
in between two trees. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:19 | |
This is where I was cut out of the car. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
Sarah Williams can't remember much about the 10th of June 2015. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
After her horrific crash, the air ambulance was sent | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
with a doctor on board. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:31 | |
They worked on the side of the road. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
When I wasn't starting to regain conscious, | 0:05:33 | 0:05:34 | |
that was when the doctor who was the flying doctor, | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
started to realise that maybe something wasn't quite right and it | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
may involve a head injury. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:45 | |
The doctor also decided not to take the nearest A, | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
as would have happened if a road ambulance had turned up. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
Instead, she was flown straight to Wales' biggest hospital to have | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
surgery to relieve pressure on the brain. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
The decision is likely to have saved her life, | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
but it's not always obvious wary seriously injured patient | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
like Sarah should be sent. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:05 | |
Major trauma affects everybody but is the leading cause | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
of death in people under 40. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
We do have all of the constituent parts of the major trauma centre | 0:06:09 | 0:06:12 | |
throughout South Wales. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:13 | |
What we don't have is them concentrated on a single site, | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
where we can manage these patients sufficiently. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:22 | |
In North Wales and part of mid Wales, there is a system which means | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
patients with life-threatening injuries are taken across | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
the border to Stoke. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:28 | |
There are around two dozen major trauma centres | 0:06:28 | 0:06:29 | |
established around England. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:30 | |
At these hospitals specialist teams are on stand-by 24 hours a day. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
And survival rates increased dramatically. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
But there's no such system in Wales. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:43 | |
It's actually embarrassing to be part of a system that doesn't have | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
regionalised network trauma care. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:47 | |
We are falling behind, as you said, the rest of the modern world. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
The University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff and Morriston in Swansea | 0:06:50 | 0:06:55 | |
want to become dedicated major trauma centres. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
But at the moment, neither has all the specialisms. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
Each has been making its case and a recommendation is due soon. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
Morriston is one of the leading centres in the UK, treating burns, | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
wounds and limb injuries. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:06 | |
It has 55 acres of available land to expand and one of its bosses | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
says its location is key. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:19 | |
Because Morriston is sitting on the motorway at the M4, | 0:07:20 | 0:07:22 | |
it means that it is much easier to access and you can get | 0:07:22 | 0:07:25 | |
to the other side of Haverfordwest, the other side of Brecon, | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
to the other side of Newport, easily within an hour. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
But Cardiff argues it would serve a bigger population. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
It is home to Wales' Children's Hospital | 0:07:33 | 0:07:34 | |
and the only one in Wales that performs brain surgery. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:38 | |
We aim to provide a fully comprehensive neurological service | 0:07:38 | 0:07:40 | |
and I think one of the examples from the data we submit | 0:07:40 | 0:07:43 | |
to the National registry is that of those patients affected by severe | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
trauma, 70% of those patients are going to | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
have a significant head injury. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:56 | |
Southmead Hospital just across the Severn Bridge in Bristol | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
is one of two major trauma centres in the south-west of England. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
Staff here say the benefits of having all the expertise | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
in one place are clear. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:08 | |
We thought we were trauma experts. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
We thought we were excellent. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:11 | |
But we know now that we were OK at it and now we really are excellent. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:17 | |
Swansea and Cardiff in many areas of life have often been fierce | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
rivals but choosing a major trauma centre, it is argued, | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
shouldn't be about winners and losers if patients | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
across South Wales benefiting the end. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:30 | |
The number of reported domestic violence offences in Wales increased | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
by more than 20% between 2013 and 2015, according to new figures. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
Legislation which encourages victims and perpetrators to seek support | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
was introduced two years ago. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:39 | |
The Welsh Government says campaigns to raise awareness of it are making | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
good progress but there are calls for greater awareness | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
of the guidelines. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:45 | |
Ben Price reports. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:55 | |
Controlling, threatening or violent behaviour. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:56 | |
It can cause emotional, psychological or physical harm. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
A couple from Swansea told me about their own experience. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
We've agreed to protect their identity. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
For Sarah, increasingly regular arguments with her partner | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
eventually turned violent and she was assaulted. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:13 | |
It just got worse and worse. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:18 | |
Things just escalated and, you know, it would be something little | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
and it would get worse. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:22 | |
The last time, he grabbed my neck, it was like the final straw. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
That was it. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:26 | |
I could have been killed. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:27 | |
We could have been arguing and I could have hit my head | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
and then obviously my daughter would have been without a mother. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:37 | |
Not wanting to get her partner arrested, the couple sought help. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
They turned to a local domestic abuse hub which provided | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
guidance and support. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:43 | |
Her partner, Mark, says he deeply regrets his actions. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:49 | |
I feel terrible for the way that I treated my partner. | 0:09:49 | 0:09:52 | |
There are no words to explain how how bad I felt straight after. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
But obviously it happened again. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:56 | |
I didn't learn from my mistakes but now I have. | 0:09:56 | 0:10:01 | |
Figures from North Wales, Gwent and Dyfed-Powys Police | 0:10:01 | 0:10:03 | |
forces show that in 2015, more than 10,000 domestic violence | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
crimes were reported, compared to more than 8000 in 2013. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
That's an increase of more than 23%. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
Data from South Wales Police was not comparable. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:11 | |
But the force said it also saw an increase of 48% | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
during a similar period. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:21 | |
Two years ago, a legislation was introduced by the Welsh Government | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
to improve the prevention of gender-based abuse and to protect | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
those affected by it. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:27 | |
A national framework has since been published but there are calls | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
for greater awareness of the guidance. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:40 | |
We need the Welsh Government and we need the local authorities | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
to learn about the act, understand what their duties | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
are and start using the guidance as it comes out, so that we know any | 0:10:47 | 0:10:51 | |
survivor, anywhere, or their children, can get that | 0:10:51 | 0:10:52 | |
support that they need. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:57 | |
Today, new proposed sentencing guidelines have been published | 0:10:57 | 0:10:59 | |
for domestic violence offences. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:00 | |
They say that abuse in a domestic setting should be regarded as more | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
serious than in a non-domestic setting, as it's likely | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
to be a repeated offence, which can have a lasting impact | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
on both women and men. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:16 | |
World football's governing body, Fifa, has opened proceedings | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
against Neil Taylor following the Wales full-back's | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
challenge on Republic of Ireland defender Seamus Coleman. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
The Everton player suffered a broken leg in a tackle that saw Taylor sent | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
off during last Friday's World Cup qualifier in Dublin. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:35 | |
Time for a look at the weather now. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:38 | |
Here's Derek. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:39 | |
A big contrast in the weather today. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:41 | |
Wet in parts of the North and west. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:43 | |
Dry and bright in the south-east and in Cardiff, the temperatures | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
soared to 18 Celsius, making it the warmest | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
day of the year so far. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:49 | |
For tonight, we've got more rain on the way. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
Some of this rain on the heavy side. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
Drier in Flintshire and another mild night. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:55 | |
Tomorrow morning, cloudy, some rain and showers | 0:11:55 | 0:11:56 | |
spreading north-eastwards. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:57 | |
Again, some heavy rain in places. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:00 | |
But it should brighten up in Pembrokeshire | 0:12:00 | 0:12:01 | |
later in the morning. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:02 | |
Across the rest of the UK, rain and showers will spread | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
north-eastwards during the day. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
Some heavy rain in parts of Scotland. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:12 | |
Behind the rain though, dry and brightening up. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
The sun will come out. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:15 | |
Showers approaching Northern Ireland later in the afternoon. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
