potentially brutal. Sunday, scattered showers but the driest day | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
of the weekend. This is East Midlands Today with | :00:00. | :00:39. | |
Dominic Heale and me, Geeta Pendse. Tonight ` the Health Trust facing a | :00:40. | :00:50. | |
?400 million black hole. Thd NHL `` NHS health trust in trouble. And | :00:51. | :00:57. | |
what is happening tonight whth the life`savers. Good evening. Welcome | :00:58. | :01:07. | |
to the programme. First tonhght a massive shake up of the NHS in | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
Leicester as it confronts a funding crisis. We're being told, whthout a | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
radical shake up, the money will run out, services will have to be | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
slashed and even patient safety could be compromised. Doing nothing, | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
NHS bosses say, would lead to hundreds of millions of pounds of | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
debt in just a few years. It's likely to mean fewer beds in our big | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
hospitals. Our health correspondent Rob Sissons is at Leicester General. | :01:31. | :01:44. | |
Good evening, Rob. Good evening We are told those problems will stack | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
up quick unless something is done. To the tune of ?400 million | :01:50. | :01:59. | |
overspend by 2018 at the projections. We cannot keep up with | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
the rising population. Therd will be a 12% increase in the number of | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
people aged over 65 in the next five years. The solution is a radical | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
shake`up which will mean gohng from three acute hospitals to two. | :02:19. | :02:28. | |
Intensive care, complex surgery and the maternity unit at the gdneral | :02:29. | :02:36. | |
could be transferred to two other hospitals in Leicester. Thrde acute | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
sites are now longer afford`ble or viable. If we do not change | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
something they will be in sdrious trouble in a a few years' thme. | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
Firstly, we will not be abld to sustain clinically the servhces we | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
have at the moment and secondly we will not have enough money so they | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
will be piecemeal cuts. We want to avoid that at all costs. Thdy are | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
seeing more patients over 60 like this one, the NHS has to spdnd money | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
smarter and provide new specialist facilities for patients with | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
dementia. I was in a ward whth five people, for had dementia and me It | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
is the night near being in the ward with them, they scream all night | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
long. Without brave and bold decisions the NHS system will | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
collapse. Practitioners are struggling, no doubt you will have | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
heard patients cannot get appointments with their GP very | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
often and we need to look at things in a different way, how we can | :03:50. | :03:57. | |
provide services. The plan hs to shift services closer to thd homes | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
of patients in the communitx. Saying that is one thing, delivering it is | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
quite another. You have got to get community care right first. That, to | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
me, is an absolute given. It will be one thing we will be really arguing | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
for. So, Rob, some big and bold plans, but will it work? Th`t is the | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
big question. If they do not it will be over to the politicians to see | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
what happens next. There have been planned in the past talking about | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
moving here out of hospitals and closer to the homes of patidnts | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
They say the big difference this time is that if and parts of the NHS | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
and social services are all in this together. They will be a different | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
culture where everyone goes for the same aim. We will have to sde. Thank | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
you. Legal proceedings have begun to remove a group of travellers from a | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
busy car park. Around 20 caravans are on the Park and Ride site at | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
Pride Park in Derby. The City Council says it's served thdm with | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
an order to leave. To tell ts more, Simon Hare joins us from our Derby | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
studio now. Good evening. It is thought the caravans arrived at the | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
site sometime over the weekdnd. There are around 20 caravans their | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
into parts of the park and ride car park. Some are next to Derbx County | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
stadium and others near the new velodrome or multi sports arena that | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
is being built. The car park does remain open to the public and it was | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
thought the travellers got `ccess to the site as the barriers ard left up | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
overnight to allow people to retrieve their cars at any time of | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
day. When we visited the site today to try to get a comment frol the | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
travellers we were threatendd and had to beat a hasty retreat. So how | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
long could it be before thex have to move? The council says it is | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
treating this as a matter of priority. They issued the notice to | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
leave on Monday and because they have not done so they are now going | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
through court, there is a hdaring for this on Wednesday. At the | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
hearing the council will repuest an order for possession and if granted | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
it will be served on the tr`vellers later that day. Bailiffs will then | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
set the date and time for any conviction to be carried out. The | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
travellers told us they planned to leave on in the next few daxs but | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
the local newspaper said thdy were told the travellers had no such | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
aims. Meanwhile a barrier h`s been put up in Leicester to prevdnt | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
travellers returning to an unauthorised site in Beaumont Leys. | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
The obstruction has been buhlt on Beaumont Leys Lane to prevent | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
vehicles moving on to the grass verge. It's been put up by the City | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
Council and will eventually be planted with flowers. Bosses say the | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
obstruction will be too large for anyone to move without conshderable | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
effort. An investigation into claims against Jimmy Savile, has found that | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
children were sexually abusdd at a former convalescent home in | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
Leicestershire. The victims were residents at Roecliffe Manor at | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
Woodhouse Eaves in the 1950s and 60s. The attacks are now behng | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
investigated by Leicestershhre Police. But it wasn't clear whether | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
Jimmy Savile was actually the man who carried out the abuse at | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
Roecliffe. Tax workers in the region are on strike today in a dispute | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
over job cuts. The walk`out forms part of a week of rolling strikes | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
affecting HM Revenue and Customs offices. The Public and Comlercial | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
Services union says years of successive job cuts have left the | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
organisation unable to cope, with delays on telephone lines and | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
backlogs of post. It says there are also plans to close a number of | :08:11. | :08:20. | |
offices. Ultimately the plan is to reduced to 15 locations nathonally | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
and to shed another 12 to 18,00 jobs depending on what happdns. | :08:28. | :08:38. | |
Coming up: A young fashion designer who's already caught the eyd of a | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
high street chain. Chanel Folkes beat hundreds of students to design | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
garments for M, we look at what it's like to take the first step | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
into the industry. A union says it's shocked and terrified by proposed | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
cuts which would see over 100 firefighters lose their jobs. The | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service has to save over ?7 million | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
over the next five years. Fhre chiefs say lives won't be ptt at | :09:06. | :09:14. | |
risk. Quentin Rayner reports. Firefighters training this lorning | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
but if the cuts go through their numbers could be reduced by up to | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
one quarter. My members are in shock at the moment. We are terrified | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
terrified for our own safetx and for the safety of the public. The | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
implications of what has bedn suggested are so significant. Is it | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
your view that lives will bd put at risk by these proposed cuts? Yes, | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
either firefighters lives or the lives of the public. Leicester will | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
lose the fire engine as well to other bases. Fire chiefs accept the | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
service will not BBC but insist people will not be put in extra | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
danger. It does ensure we are able to meet the risk in that particular | :10:14. | :10:20. | |
area. With the proposals we have put forward we believe we can still | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
maintain adequate resources against the risk in particular areas so | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
therefore we believe that is the case. In Leicestershire there will | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
be a small rise in council tax to reduce the cuts to the servhce, if | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
that is not possible the cuts will come into force next April. A doctor | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
in Derby has opened a shop selling electronic cigarettes in a bid to | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
persuade smokers to quit. John Ashcroft started the store because | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
he believes E`Cigarettes can help people kick the habit. Hundreds of | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
patients have now tried thel and he insists they've very safe. @ny | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
profit he makes will go to charity. I spent many years trying to stop | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
people smoking, I prescribe the lot of nicotine replacement and | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
medication and still do but many smokers are not ready to stop and | :11:14. | :11:20. | |
this is a great alternative. It is dramatically savour compared to | :11:21. | :11:26. | |
cigarettes. `` safer. Newark's new MP has made his maiden speech in the | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
House of Commons. Conservathve Robert Jenrick won the seat in a | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
by`election three weeks ago. Traditionally, new MPs use the | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
maiden speech to pay tributd to their constituency ` but Robert | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
Jenrick admitted that many of his colleagues already know the area | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
well. It is almost unnecess`ry for me to tell the How's about ly | :11:47. | :11:53. | |
constituency because many rhght on rubble members are already | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
surprisingly familiar with ht. It has been said in Newark has not seen | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
so many parliamentarians since the end of the Civil War. True dnough! | :12:03. | :12:16. | |
Every summer hundreds of design students graduate here in the East | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
Midlands. All hoping to makd it in the hugely competitive world of | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
fashion. Key to their success is obtaining industry experience. In | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
the second of our series on local designers, I met a 22`year`old who's | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
already been picked up by a major high street name. Surrounded by | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
designs for her end of year degree show, Chanel has an exciting | :12:33. | :12:44. | |
prospect ahead. She beat dozens of students to design menswear for | :12:45. | :12:54. | |
Marks Spencer 's. I have developed a collection to suit the customer. | :12:55. | :13:02. | |
This is the autumn 2015 collection. The UK menswear market is a growing | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
one so potentially lucrativd for a young designer. She has also won the | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
backing of the city fashion Council who are based here at London's | :13:15. | :13:23. | |
Somerset house. This woman was on the panel who picked Chanel. Often | :13:24. | :13:34. | |
we will just see a quick line`up, there will be a lot of thought | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
process behind that but the development work is necessarily | :13:40. | :13:51. | |
sheared. `` shared. It is unbelievable in a way to thhnk that | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
now I am setting up into a career that I actually enjoy. I do not | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
think there is anything elsd I would want to do. I am very excitdd about | :14:02. | :14:09. | |
the future. Chanel begins a three`month placement with Larks | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
Spencer is next week and hopes that one day her own designs will grace | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
the catwalk in London Fashion Week. Fantastic. We wish her lots of luck. | :14:19. | :14:27. | |
Still to come: The East Midlands Waterways Rescue team who'vd just | :14:28. | :14:29. | |
circumnavigated Britain. Good weather, bad weather, aches, pains, | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
drama...and even dolphins. @nd they did it, as planned, in just over | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
nine days. Full story later. And talking about water, it is time to | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
dig out your umbrella again. I will have your detailed forecast for the | :14:47. | :14:53. | |
rest of the week a little l`ter Now the sport. The footballers `re back. | :14:54. | :15:03. | |
First from me Derby County have agreed a new long term contract with | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
midfielder Jeff Hendrick. The 22`year`old Ireland international | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
has signed a deal that will keep him at the club until 2018. The Rams say | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
they also hope to keep Craig Bryson after they turning down a bhd from | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
Burnley for the midfielder yesterday. They were back at | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
training today. Angela was there too. The summer holidays, all about | :15:20. | :15:34. | |
a bit of relaxation. Putting your feet up may be overindulging just a | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
little. So, spear a thought for this lot. They returned to work today and | :15:41. | :15:48. | |
faced the dreaded fitness tdsts Everyone else seems to be struggling | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
a little bit, I am not lookhng forward to it. You have to do it. It | :15:54. | :15:59. | |
is the tried and tested way of making sure every player is ready | :16:00. | :16:07. | |
for when the season gets underway. Although most of us can do the lot | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
of damage in four weeks, thdse lads cannot. They are in good sh`pe, | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
confident and ready to go again I'd macro it will be as much about | :16:18. | :16:24. | |
mental as physical fitness `fter losing in the finals of the | :16:25. | :16:32. | |
play`off. You cannot dwell on the past two long, eventually it will | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
get the better of you. Todax the focus was about who came out on top | :16:39. | :16:46. | |
for fitness. I just do not want to be at the bottom. I will settle for | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
obscurity but hopefully I al not too close to the bottom. I'd macro can | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
they go one better this timd around? They run into the ndw season | :17:01. | :17:08. | |
is definitely on. I am glad they do not do that to us here! Now, | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
cricket. And the Indians ard here. This summer's tourists feattre some | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
of the Superstars of the global game. Today they began warmhng up | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
for the test series against England by starting a three`day gamd against | :17:25. | :17:33. | |
Leicestershire. And in a money spinner for the Foxes, many of their | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
British based fans went to watch. Today, it was all about the visit of | :17:37. | :17:44. | |
India to Leicestershire. It is massive. We played them thrde years | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
ago. It was Big Ben and it hs big now. It is a great opportunhty to | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
get ticket out to the Asian population of Leicestershird. A lot | :17:56. | :18:03. | |
of people behind me identifx as British Indians and argue to wave | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
the flag for their side. Thd task here is to get them coming back to | :18:08. | :18:16. | |
the ground. We have got to give them a good experience today, we will | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
keep in touch with them and hopefully they will come back. I am | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
macro these guys love their cricket, I am surprised they do not come I | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
love cricket but I do not h`ve too much time. They will come to send | :18:31. | :18:40. | |
the message to England. I al sure we will get revenge this year. Two | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
years ago you guys because 4`0, this year we will beat you to `0. That is | :18:46. | :18:53. | |
my prediction. You saw it hdre first! Well India are at | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
Leicestershire this week, Ddrbyshire next and then the much awaited Test | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
match begins at Trent Bridgd the week after. Last year the thcket | :19:01. | :19:07. | |
office sold out for the Ashds before Christmas, but with two weeks to go | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
there are still tickets left for the first day of the opening match of | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
England's Indian summer serhes. If we take the four days and the one | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
day international that is over 85,000 tickets and in actual fact we | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
have 3000 left. There is an appetite for Cricket in the East Midlands and | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
we are happy that is the case. And disappointment for Nottingh`m tennis | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
stars Jocelyn Rae and Daniel Smethurst at Wimbledon todax. Both | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
faced tough opponents in thd doubles competition and both have gone out | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
at the first round. Rae and partner Anna Smith took the hugely | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
experienced Sam Stosur and Flavia Penneta to three sets. Now, you may | :19:42. | :19:59. | |
remember when this programmd caught up with a team who promised to | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
circumnavigate Britain in nhne days...nine hours....and nine | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
minutes. We're talking about the men from Watersafe UK ` an inland | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
waterways rescue team, based in Derbyshire. To raise ?50,000 for | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
their charity AND for the RNLI, they needed to complete the 999 Challenge | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
around our coast. But did they manage it? James Roberson rdports. | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
Waiting on the quayside in Poole in Dorset. In February the grotp had | :20:22. | :20:27. | |
been doing what they do voltntarily, rescuing people and Rob Petht from | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
the floods in the Thames Valley This month they packed in Ddrby for | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
a voyage to raise money for two charities by going around Britain in | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
this challenge. We will do ht in nine days, nine hours and nhne | :20:45. | :20:53. | |
minutes. Then it was off. Ahead of them 2000 miles and who knew what | :20:54. | :21:02. | |
conditions? We have just got to keep grass. `` Cape Wrath. D9 achieved, | :21:03. | :21:21. | |
will be make it back to pool in the remaining nine hours and nine | :21:22. | :21:34. | |
minutes? `` the nine achievdd. We have had some rough seas but we have | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
got there. I am macro I would do it again tomorrow. The highs wdre to | :21:40. | :21:48. | |
swim with dolphins. Lows were 1 hours on a day becoming rather | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
monotonous. The bonus was ?40,0 0 in all for the two charities whth | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
barely getting wet. I bet it felt good to get to the end and the | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
dolphins was my favourite bht. Absolutely beautiful. And the | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
weather, there is talk of an upside`down rainbow? Yes, ydsterday | :22:14. | :22:20. | |
evening some of you were lucky enough to spot this. It looks like a | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
reverse rainbow. For this to a car you need the sun is especially high | :22:27. | :22:32. | |
in the sky and ice particles inside these clouds which you can see in | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
this picture. It is fairly rare at this time of year. Thank yot to | :22:39. | :22:46. | |
everyone who said them to us. Tomorrow, weather`wise, it hs cloudy | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
and cool with a scattering of heavy showers. Maybe even the odd rumble | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
of wonder. The cloud will qtickly increase and rain arriving from the | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
