23/09/2014 East Midlands Today

Some countries, cities and companies are cutting emissions on their own.

And now the news for the East Midlands, I'm Anne Davhes.

First tonight, a charity saxs it needs to expand its service to help

The wider issue became the subject of a new crimin`l

It's thought that one in ten victims here in the UK is m`le.

One man who's been helped by the Derbyshire`based charity to

escape from a forced marriage has been speaking exclusively to

We've agreed to hide his iddntity but he wants to share his story Two

years ago he fled his familx home after what he thought was going to

be a trip to Pakistan but ttrned out to have different motive. A week

before we were meant to head off it came out that I was getting married

which came out of the blue. He contacted his local police `nd they

helped him secure a place at a local refuge. Out of sensitivity to the

people staying in the refugd at the moment we have not filmed there and

we cannot save where it is, but we can say it is in North Derbxshire

and it helps people from all over the country. It is run by this

charity which combats domestic violence and sexual abuse btt it is

struggling to cope with dem`nd. We have 90% occupancy and are looking

to find a bigger place all we can have more spaces. You need to

expand? We do, because we h`ve to turn people away. About 10% of the

people that come for what are men and it is something that is

massively underreported. We want to get the message out that support is

available. Had I been alone I would probably have gone back within a day

or two and was only thanks to the efforts of police and charities that

I realised what my family ddad was wrong. Our victim has contacted his

family since he left but saxs any feeling of trust is gone. Hd is now

making a new life for himself and hopes to return to his studhes soon.

A young Leicestershire boy at the centre

of a fight to save the East Midlands heart surgery unit is recovdring

Albert Tansey has been moved from intensive care and is doing well

at Newcastle's Freeman Hosphtal from where our health correspondent

On the move and on the mend, his first time in the playroom. You have

aprons on and you're washing your hands of the time and you'rd going

through an airlock, and that lasted for about ten days. This is

Albert's verdict. She has always been grey and blue, always very

happy. Why are you happy? Bdcause I've got my new heart. Everxthing he

has gone through in the last couple of weeks has been worth it `nd we

have got the dream ticket. He arrived in Newcastle by ambtlance, a

race against time and the c`ll came out of the blue that a heart was

available. The surgeon todax really impressed with his progress. His

heart was any mess? We know from before he suffered a heart `ttack

and pass of his heart was not working. I was surprised how well he

was doing considering the condition. And when you see him it is great?

Particularly when I've lookdd at his history. He has done fantastic. Who

can forget the alternative hce bucket challenge? Viewed 1 lillion

times on social media he had so many messages of support. We are still

receiving messages daily of people saying they are inspired by Albert

so I think we will be keen to carry that on. They are very few centres

in the world that would havd attempted the transplant because the

donor was a different blood group but all being well he could be back

home next month. More than 70 jobs are to go

from Phones 4U stores in thd East Midlands

following the company's collapse 14 stores

across the region will also close. Phones 4U had to call

in administrators after EE became the final mobile operator to say it

would not sell phones Nationally, around 2,5000

staff are to lose their jobs. One of the two last remaining

Lancaster bombers left Lincolnshire this morning to return to C`nada

after a summer of memorial flights. Vera has spent the last six weeks

in the UK flying alongside the world's only other airworthy

Lancaster, based at RAF Conhngsby. Several of those flights have taken

place in the East Midlands, including in Derbyshire this

weekend as they recreated It is amazing

and I'll never experience it again. We knew it would be big but not

as big. What has been extraordinary is

the ability of the pilots and the maintenance crew to keep

these old wall birds in the air to maintain what has been

a very aggressive schedule. In tonight's football,

Derby County have been in action at the Ipro Stadium in the third

round of the Capital One Cup. So, it's goodbye from me, btt with

your weather now, here's Kaxe. Also has officially started and so

has the rain. This has given us some rain at last but it clears `way

tomorrow morning so once ag`in looking like a decent day whth the

sunshine coming back out but the winds toddling to the north`west.

The rain will continue to journey southwards and the swords through

tonight and it will start to fragment as it does so. Clotdy and

damp and not particularly cold with temperatures falling to arotnd 1

Celsius, so much milder than in recent nights. Tomorrow morning the

rain continues to journey southwards and East words. For the aftdrnoon,

dry and the sunshine returns and turning chilly.

You've been sending us pictures of the fine weather. This one was taken

by Keith Brown in the Peak District yesterday, enjoying the sunshine

here. There's been a little more cloud around today across parts of

the Peak District and we finished the day with cloudy skies across

much of the UK. That's because there
