:01:14. > :01:18.At a time when 3 million people in the UK are suffering from
:01:18. > :01:24.malnutrition, one NHS trust in Lincolnshire Police it has found a
:01:24. > :01:29.way of easing the problem. Managers at Boston's Pilgrim Hospital and
:01:29. > :01:34.volunteers to come in and help feed patients at mealtimes. It is already
:01:34. > :01:37.being trialled in Lincoln that has attracted criticism and one nursing
:01:37. > :01:44.union has today described it as worrying. The trust, which runs
:01:44. > :01:50.hospitals, -- the trust which runs the hospital was recently put into

:01:58. > :02:07.Volunteers helping patients at Lincoln Hospital. I did not spill as
:02:07. > :02:11.much. Gene can feed herself but many others can't. More than 1000

:02:40. > :02:43.would be easy to say, let's get the volunteers in the problem with the
:02:43. > :02:50.NHS is solved, but it is not going to be as easy as that. It is just
:02:50. > :02:56.feeding. It is caring vomit it is attitudes. Nurse managers insist
:02:56. > :03:06.that those who need specialists help at mealtimes will still get it.
:03:06. > :03:08.
:03:08. > :03:10.it is caring, it is attitudes. with the most physical or specialist
:03:10. > :03:17.needs will be supported by the nursing staff and the clinical
:03:17. > :03:22.support workers. Senior nurses insist the social action of the
:03:22. > :03:27.volunteers with patients is crucial, too. A lot of patients with dementia
:03:27. > :03:34.do react better to social interaction, encouragement. A lot of
:03:34. > :03:39.patients forget that they are hungry or forget to eat. This project is
:03:39. > :03:43.the subject of University research to see how valuable it is. The
:03:44. > :03:46.results of the research should be known later this year.
:03:46. > :03:51.But with the trust in special measures and concerns already having

:04:01. > :04:03.to act now so the volunteers scheme will be rolled out to Boston.
:04:03. > :04:08.I spoke to David Harding Price from the Royal College of Nursing and
:04:08. > :04:12.asked him whether nurses felt they had time to look after Food & Drink
:04:12. > :04:16.for their patients. We have been saying for some time that nurses are
:04:16. > :04:22.under a lot of time pressure and we have to ensure that they have all
:04:22. > :04:26.the time they need to provide all the care, and that includes time to
:04:26. > :04:32.do the feeding and hydration. accept this is nursing on the cheap,
:04:32. > :04:37.or this is how it will be seen? Ann it is a worrying development and the
:04:37. > :04:43.royal college nursing is concerned that it could lead to people seeing
:04:44. > :04:48.it as nurses on the cheap. We would like horrified nurses paid for to
:04:48. > :04:56.provide sufficient care. -- we would like qualified nurses.
:04:56. > :05:02.Do they feel but feeding patients is beneath them? No, they do not. What
:05:02. > :05:06.we are saying is you have to ensure there is sufficient staff so we can
:05:06. > :05:10.provide the 24-hour care. Everything through feeding to sleeping to the
:05:10. > :05:19.pounds on, whether it is changing addressing... Watt we heard in our
:05:19. > :05:22.report, one patient who died because the feeding was not being monitored
:05:22. > :05:27.in Lincoln. Will this scheme work? It will work
:05:27. > :05:30.if the volunteers are suitably trained, if they share the
:05:30. > :05:35.information about what the patient has eaten and drunk and if the staff
:05:35. > :05:40.are able to work with them. It will not work if we have a situation
:05:40. > :05:45.where it is seen as a means of doing things on the cheap.
:05:45. > :05:48.They have been doing this at Lincoln County Hospital for a while but the
:05:48. > :05:54.Care Quality Commission want them in January this year they still were
:05:54. > :05:58.not feeding patients properly. Why can't hospitals get a grasp of
:05:58. > :06:02.this? The difficulty is we have seen increasingly be NHS budget cut and
:06:02. > :06:06.what we are having is instead of employing sufficient nurses we have
:06:06. > :06:11.had a situation, we have senior recently with the care report where
:06:12. > :06:15.management are being told they have too employed more qualified staff.
:06:15. > :06:22.Would you prefer the beating of patients done by volunteers or your
:06:22. > :06:28.own nurses? -- the feeding of patients.
:06:28. > :06:35.By nurses. Is this a sensible way to make sure
:06:35. > :06:45.patients in hospital after police or is it nursing done on the cheap with
:06:45. > :07:00.
:07:00. > :07:07.volunteers coming in, feeding on volunteers feeding patients in
:07:07. > :07:14.hospitals before 7pm. Still to come, one step closer to a
:07:14. > :07:19.memorial to Hull's fishing past. With a trip to Wembley Stadium at
:07:19. > :07:23.the end of next month, Hull FC have become the city's latest sporting
:07:23. > :07:33.success. The team secured their place in the belief iss Challenge
:07:33. > :07:33.
:07:34. > :07:38.Cup final -- their place in rugby league's Challenge Cup final. It is
:07:38. > :07:44.another boost to Hull, which is also in the running for the UK City of
:07:44. > :07:48.Culture. This is what sporting success looks
:07:49. > :07:52.like. Fans and a whole city on a high. For the thousands who make the
:07:52. > :08:01.70 mile trip to Huddersfield, they came with Wembley in their sights.
:08:01. > :08:06.But it was a nervy start. When the black-and-white is finally woke up
:08:06. > :08:13.they showed what they could do. This from Holt Poster boy Tom line. And
:08:13. > :08:23.the tries kept coming. Could they hold an? A late surge from
:08:23. > :08:32.Warrington was not enough. Cole's 16-12 win and Wembley is calling. --
:08:32. > :08:36.Hull's. Wembley! Brilliant. Everything we expected. And the
:08:36. > :08:44.party continues back in Hull today at the victory is about more than
:08:44. > :08:49.what just happens on the pitch. put it down to a sleeping giant over
:08:50. > :08:57.the years. We are now waking up. We are on the move and moving forward
:08:57. > :09:01.very fast indeed. There is a growing sense that Hull is a city on its way
:09:02. > :09:06.up. A string of sporting success is helping it to shed old stereotypes
:09:06. > :09:10.and reinvent itself. With a Premier League football team, and Olympic
:09:10. > :09:16.gold medallist Matt hosting world-class sporting events, there
:09:17. > :09:26.is a City of Culture bid, too, and national recognition for Hull's
:09:26. > :09:31.architecture. The next challenge, a date at Wembley. It is not just a
:09:31. > :09:37.little town on the outskirts of the river now. It will get people from
:09:37. > :09:43.down south to come up here and see what Hull has got to offer. It puts
:09:44. > :09:48.us on the map. All eyes and expectations of a city now turn to
:09:48. > :09:58.the final. Whole FC against Wigan on the 24th of August.
:09:58. > :09:59.
:09:59. > :10:05.-- Hull FC. Bob Barton is a travel writer. You have recently done an
:10:05. > :10:09.article and been very complimentary about Hull. Are we on the up?
:10:09. > :10:14.my first visit and I was impressed. When I told people in London I was
:10:14. > :10:22.coming up for a short break in Hull I had some very funny looks but
:10:22. > :10:27.those people have not into Hull. does it have a certain image? Is it,
:10:27. > :10:33.because as the Observer newspaper said yesterday, it has the
:10:33. > :10:39.misfortune to sit on the word latter tween dull and held? I am not sure.
:10:39. > :10:44.Many people have not been. The problem with whole is it is not on
:10:44. > :10:48.the way to anywhere else so from a tourist point of view you cannot
:10:48. > :10:55.latch it onto a round Britain itinerary, for example. How much is
:10:55. > :11:01.sporting success important for a city? Will that help us? I think it
:11:01. > :11:06.will help, and not just sport but if you are used in film and TV
:11:06. > :11:12.programmes that is shown to bring a lot of people. But a lot of it is
:11:12. > :11:16.word-of-mouth and I'm certainly spreading the word. The maritime
:11:16. > :11:22.quarter of Hull is fantastic. You have the Philip Clark in Trail am a
:11:22. > :11:28.wonderful selection of museums and there is so much to offer. It is not
:11:28. > :11:32.just Hull, we have got Beverley, Barton, nearby some great places.
:11:33. > :11:38.This is your namesake, Barton, and you like it too much yes. I am
:11:38. > :11:42.pleased that my namesake town is a very handsome place. The long art
:11:42. > :11:51.gallery built of Rick where they made the ropes, that is just a
:11:51. > :11:55.unique building. -- built of bricks. It is a very pretty place. Crossing
:11:55. > :11:59.the Humber Bridge is magnificent and if that could be used as a cultural
:11:59. > :12:03.icon I think it would become world-famous. Thank you for writing
:12:03. > :12:08.nice things. Continue your missionary work done there about
:12:08. > :12:14.Hull! An investigation has begun after a
:12:14. > :12:17.van carrying cash was robbed by men carrying a hammer. Police were
:12:17. > :12:22.called to McDonald's in Trinity shriek in Gainsborough just after
:12:22. > :12:25.9am this morning. The robbers threatened the driver before making
:12:25. > :12:30.off with cash. Two men have been charged with
:12:30. > :12:35.murder following the death of a 30-year-old man in Grantham at the

:12:42. > :12:44.Ben Croft, 24, and Sam Croft, 21, have been remanded in custody. Two

:12:50. > :12:56.A helicopter crew from RAF left and filled in East Yorkshire has rescued
:12:56. > :13:01.a woman and two children from a river in North Yorkshire. All three
:13:01. > :13:07.were winched to safety. 6000 men from Hull have died in the
:13:07. > :13:13.last 100 years working on trawlers in some of the most challenging
:13:13. > :13:19.conditions on Earth. Today it has been decided what memorial -- a
:13:19. > :13:23.memorial to honour them will look like.
:13:23. > :13:27.For years, hundreds of people from Hull have gathered on wasteland to
:13:27. > :13:32.remember those lost at sea soon it will be this Memorial Day gather
:13:32. > :13:39.at. Called Fathers, Sons and Mothers, it's designers say it could
:13:39. > :13:45.be a teardrop representing lost or a fishing net landing on deck. Inside
:13:45. > :13:51.it will be words chosen by the people of Hull. It has to have a
:13:51. > :13:55.memorial for the thousands of fishermen lost. It has to be a place
:13:55. > :14:02.of contemplation. It also has to be educational for the future heritage
:14:02. > :14:06.of the city. We feel that this design does just that.
:14:06. > :14:15.Memorial's designers have already made their mark on Hull, giving the
:14:15. > :14:19.city its Fish Trail as well as giving Blackpool the Comedy Carpet.
:14:19. > :14:24.It is a memorial but more than that. It is where people can go to
:14:24. > :14:31.remember those lost. But also it could be quite an attraction for the
:14:31. > :14:36.centre it's in terms of the history of the community. 6000 of Hull's
:14:36. > :14:46.trawlermen were lost at sea. He memorial to them will be built using
:14:46. > :14:53.money raised by the fishing heritage group. It will cost �250,000 to
:14:53. > :15:00.build it here but before construction can begin, the group
:15:00. > :15:06.wants the designer to consult with the fishing men's families. People
:15:06. > :15:12.from Hull's former fishing community. To date we asked people
:15:12. > :15:17.on this road what they thought. father-in-law is scattered up there
:15:17. > :15:22.so we often pop up there to take flowers. It is brilliant. I do not
:15:22. > :15:29.think it is appropriate for fishermen. It is more like something
:15:29. > :15:34.you would find in Trafalgar Square. It is a teardrop and fishing net,
:15:34. > :15:42.yes. The group says it will consult with families next month before
:15:42. > :15:46.finally making this memorial a reality.
:15:46. > :15:56.Another one you might want to comment on. What do you think of the
:15:56. > :15:58.
:15:58. > :16:02.design of the Memorial? Thank you for watching. Still ahead:
:16:02. > :16:08.A survivor of World War II naval battles in the Arctic is finally
:16:08. > :16:16.recognised for his service. And how planes like these attracted 200,000
:16:16. > :16:21.visitors to Cleethorpes over the weekend.
:16:21. > :16:31.The full report a little later and 20 more of your pictures, but just a
:16:31. > :16:56.
:16:56. > :17:00.binoculars? No, it was not. I note you like bird
:17:00. > :17:03.spotting, so were you playing spotting? The forecast. Torrential
:17:03. > :17:10.downpours today and for the next couple of hours we still have a
:17:10. > :17:13.weather warning in place. One or two torrential downpours. A rash of
:17:13. > :17:18.showers wishing offshore. Tomorrow we are looking at showers are gay
:17:18. > :17:22.but not quite as many. Still some could be on the heavy side. So far
:17:22. > :17:27.today we had a fair few showers. You can see on the satellite picture, on
:17:27. > :17:33.the pressure charts, look ahead to Friday, a lot of uncertainty. But
:17:33. > :17:38.very warm air across France and if that pushes in we could get
:17:38. > :17:43.torrential downpours again. But a long way off. He is the satellite
:17:43. > :17:47.picture. The thicker cloud is where we have got showers and they are
:17:47. > :17:51.pushing offshore now. Still for eastern parts particularly
:17:51. > :18:01.potentially very heavy downpours. Then a dry night with warm, clear
:18:01. > :18:17.
:18:17. > :18:21.spells. Temperatures overnight about dry note. Bright or sunny spells but
:18:21. > :18:25.also a fair few showers. Not as many as today but there could be the
:18:25. > :18:35.potential for one or two heavy ones. Temperatures about average for the
:18:35. > :18:44.
:18:45. > :18:54.it is a bit warmer. On Wednesday, we start of an a high note. Watch out
:18:55. > :18:56.
:18:56. > :19:05.for the showers on Friday. -- start an open day at allotments in

:19:16. > :19:21.Have a nice evening. 70 years ago, he was badly injured on his warship
:19:21. > :19:28.in the Arctic Tom now a war veteran from Immingham has been recognised

:19:46. > :19:49.As Sidney Lewis looks over his medals for serving during some of
:19:49. > :19:54.the bloodiest sea battles of World War II, the receipt of a new

:20:12. > :20:15.Arctic convoys of World War II. was terrific, the weather and
:20:15. > :20:24.bombing and torpedo and all that sort of thing. To see ships just
:20:24. > :20:30.been blown up, it was quite breathtaking, really. When Russia
:20:30. > :20:34.ended the war we had to support them in some way. They were on the output
:20:34. > :20:39.against the Germans. -- when they entered the war. We had to supply
:20:39. > :20:45.them with ammunitions but to do that all vessels have to run the
:20:45. > :20:53.gauntlet. This is truly an epic part of the war. He also helped evacuate
:20:53. > :21:00.600 men from the horrors of Dunkirk and was one of just a few surviving
:21:00. > :21:06.ship is too good to Malta. It was absolutely terrible. We were
:21:06. > :21:12.dive-bombed day and night. Torpedoes, submarines. I saw two
:21:13. > :21:17.torpedoes literally go underneath the ship. But after his ship was
:21:17. > :21:26.destroyed, two precious photographs were found floating on the sea.
:21:26. > :21:30.wife and myself. And a photo of the ship. I was handed them and asked,
:21:30. > :21:36.are these yours? I just could not believe it. I wake up sometimes in
:21:36. > :21:43.the night and think, let it go through your mind, you know. Then
:21:43. > :21:49.you realise how lucky you are to be here. It is only a medal after all
:21:49. > :21:53.but it means more than that. To those sort of people that were
:21:53. > :21:57.there, it is the feeling you have been recognised a little bit for
:21:57. > :22:04.what you did. Sidney Lewis, who has now received
:22:04. > :22:09.the optics are medals -- the Arctic Star medal.
:22:09. > :22:14.On Friday we toured too four cores of cat owners to be more responsible
:22:14. > :22:20.after eight colony of feral animals was found in Hull. They are now
:22:20. > :22:24.being caught in humane traps to be neutered. A cat charity says it is a

:23:26. > :23:33.The resort was still busy and buzzing today after an exciting
:23:33. > :23:36.weekend of awesome aerobatics. Visitors were treated to displays.
:23:36. > :23:43.However, the weather did throw a spanner in the works on Saturday,
:23:43. > :23:47.when half of the six display teams could not take off. We still have to
:23:48. > :23:52.pay for some of those acts. Once they are fuelled and ready to fly,
:23:52. > :23:58.we still have to pay. We were fairly gutted that the weather beaters on

:24:35. > :24:40.there was a lot of people about. was fantastic. Enjoyed it. The kids
:24:40. > :24:50.enjoyed it. He loved it, sat on the beach with him. What did you like
:24:50. > :24:53.about it? Big aeroplanes.Last year the show generated �3.5 million for
:24:53. > :25:00.the local economy and organisers, who say they are still number
:25:00. > :25:04.crunching, say that figure could swell to 5 million this year.
:25:04. > :25:10.Our reporter is in Cleethorpes now. Did the traders in the town see the
:25:10. > :25:15.benefit? There has been a bit of a mixed reaction, actually. I have
:25:15. > :25:19.been talking to some of the traders. While many do not deny that the
:25:19. > :25:24.increase in footfall was a good thing, some say that the fact that
:25:24. > :25:30.the parking was closed off on the sea front, it meant people could not
:25:30. > :25:35.come and stop, by an ice cream or fish and chips, and they had to park
:25:35. > :25:39.quite far away. I am joined by a councillor. I do not understand
:25:39. > :25:46.where they are coming from. We had an additional 200,000 people over
:25:46. > :25:49.the weekend. We will be meeting the traders to overcome that but an
:25:49. > :25:56.estimated �4 million extra went into the economy. Yes, the car park was
