:01:03. > :01:21.Jade Gadd is meant to be enjoying her teenage years

:01:22. > :01:24.but instead she's trapped in her bedroom.

:01:25. > :01:27.The 16-year-old from Durham has been diagnosed with a rare genetic

:01:28. > :01:30.condition, one that attacks every part of her body.

:01:31. > :01:33.Despite this, Jade wants to be able to leave the house,

:01:34. > :01:37.For three years her family has battled for alterations

:01:38. > :01:40.to their home in order to make that possible.

:01:41. > :01:46.Our health reporter, Sharon Barbour, has this exclusive report.

:01:47. > :02:05.I would have to use a wheelchair and then I would go to my stairlift and

:02:06. > :02:09.I can not use that while I am spasming so I get stuck.

:02:10. > :02:10.Jade was an active, sporty girl.

:02:11. > :02:13.But when she turned into a teenager, she began to show the devastating

:02:14. > :02:18.symptoms of a rare genetic condition.

:02:19. > :02:29.I am in constant pain everywhere. One doctor described it as all body

:02:30. > :02:32.pain. What about the seizures? They come in waves.

:02:33. > :02:33.As we filmed, Jade had numerous seizures.

:02:34. > :02:36.She insisted we show them because she says this is what living

:02:37. > :02:47.If Jade is well enough to go out, or if she needs to leave

:02:48. > :02:54.the house to go to hospital, the journey is a perilous one.

:02:55. > :03:02.She must get down a steep stairwell in the house and then the stairs

:03:03. > :03:09.outside. And her joints are constantly painfully dislocating.

:03:10. > :03:12.And it's help with these stairs, access to the house and around

:03:13. > :03:14.the house that Jade's parents have been fighting for.

:03:15. > :03:19.We have had three ambulance crews here before to move her when she is

:03:20. > :03:21.having seizures and she has to have an appointment in hospital.

:03:22. > :03:23.And it's taking a tremendous toll on the family.

:03:24. > :03:26.Her father Tony, a former police officer, is now undergoing his his

:03:27. > :03:32.Neither can work, all of their savings have gone.

:03:33. > :03:37.If one of ours wasn't available or wasn't able to help, I don't know

:03:38. > :03:42.what we would do. We wouldn't be able to cope. We always try to

:03:43. > :03:51.remain very positive in our approach with things but it gets very hard.

:03:52. > :04:02.Sometimes we have been kneeling on the floor next to her bed, one of us

:04:03. > :04:06.trying to put different joints in. Because she is in so much pain it is

:04:07. > :04:12.too much sometimes even think about, even eating is too much to think

:04:13. > :04:16.about sometimes. It is very, very hard to keep going.

:04:17. > :04:19.Durham County Council have told Look North...

:04:20. > :04:21."The nature of Jade's complex condition has made it difficult

:04:22. > :04:23.to ascertain exactly what changes are required to make

:04:24. > :04:29.However, recommendations have now been made and the maximum grant

:04:30. > :04:32.We have offered support to the family to source

:04:33. > :04:52.They say it amounts to a loan which they cannot afford.

:04:53. > :04:54.It's a ground-breaking operation which could change his life.

:04:55. > :04:56.And this evening, five-year-old Finley Ingles from Middlesbrough

:04:57. > :04:58.is undergoing that surgery in America to treat

:04:59. > :05:06.The youngster suffers up to 15 seizures a day but his condition

:05:07. > :05:09.cannot be treated in this country because the tumour is too deep.

:05:10. > :05:12.So a campaign was set up and ?200,000 was raised to send

:05:13. > :05:17.Stuart Whincup is at the hospital in Houston and has

:05:18. > :05:29.Well, this is the day that Finley's parents desperately hoped

:05:30. > :05:33.He currently suffers up to 15 seizures in a single day and,

:05:34. > :05:36.for the last 3.5 years, he's tried many different forms

:05:37. > :05:38.of treatment and drugs but nothing has worked.

:05:39. > :05:40.That is why they have always seen this trip

:05:41. > :05:42.to Houston, this operation, as their last chance.

:05:43. > :05:44.They are also aware that this is a very difficult

:05:45. > :05:50.They arrived at Texas Children's Hospital in the early

:05:51. > :05:56.Before they went in, we had a quick word with Cara, Finley's mother.

:05:57. > :06:00.I'm a whole host of emotions rolled into one.

:06:01. > :06:03.I'm just praying that it's everything that

:06:04. > :06:13.He's excited to be at the hospital, believe it or not.

:06:14. > :06:18.Everything that we've hoped and dreamed for since

:06:19. > :06:21.we got his diagnosis, really, when he was 18 months old.

:06:22. > :06:24.So, today's just a life changer for him.

:06:29. > :06:32.His family said at the time when he went down he was happy and smiling.

:06:33. > :06:34.For all that is happening, he just knows that doctors

:06:35. > :06:38.here in America are going to try and make him feel better.

:06:39. > :06:42.This procedure is being carried out by Daniel Curry,

:06:43. > :06:45.the man who developed laser ablation surgery.

:06:46. > :06:48.He is making a small hole in Finley's skull and,

:06:49. > :06:52.using an MRI scan for guidance, he is directing a laser

:06:53. > :06:55.at where the tumour is and the heat is used to destroy it.

:06:56. > :06:58.The operation is expected to take around six hours but it is thought

:06:59. > :07:06.it will be sometime tomorrow before we get the first indication of how

:07:07. > :07:12.And we'll have an update on Finley's condition

:09:03. > :09:05.Magistrates decided because of the seriousness of the charges,

:09:06. > :09:08.the case should be sent to the Crown Court and that

:09:24. > :09:25.with because it's eating its way through the lorry

:09:26. > :09:30.But then it tore away from the other side.

:09:31. > :09:33.As that came down, it was a matter of throw the bike

:09:34. > :09:45.The motorway was shut for more than 24 hours.

:09:46. > :09:50.What remained of the bridge has been demolished.

:09:54. > :09:56.of your savings and look forward to a life free from debt,

:09:57. > :10:00.But it seems more and more of us are finishing work without having

:10:01. > :10:01.paid off the mortgage or credit cards.

:10:02. > :10:04.Financial experts reckon many people fear they'll never be able

:10:05. > :10:11.Mark McAlindon has been speaking to pensioners in West Cumbria.

:10:12. > :10:13.At this lunch club in Egremont near Whitehaven, pensioners enjoy

:10:14. > :10:17.Ray Bamford is a regular and understands the problems

:10:18. > :10:22.Nowadays it is either eat or go cold.

:10:23. > :10:30.And a lot of old folk are going down that road.

:10:31. > :10:32.On Fridays, volunteers from the local credit union pop

:10:33. > :10:36.in to help some save and plan for days ahead.

:10:37. > :10:39.But Age UK staff say this part of the country is hard pressed.

:10:40. > :10:43.People struggle and often don't know what they're entitled to.

:10:44. > :10:48.A lot of people who we see have long-term health

:10:49. > :10:52.They are not aware of benefits which might be able to help them

:10:53. > :10:58.to live independently, so our job really is to speak

:10:59. > :11:02.to them about that and make them aware of the help that is available

:11:03. > :11:05.so that they have the means to look after themselves and it is not

:11:17. > :11:19.Of that figure, around 40% expect still to owe

:11:20. > :11:26.Here in West Cumbria, Age UK says it has handled 8000

:11:27. > :11:28.enquiries about the debt alone in the last year, and

:11:29. > :11:33.For many pensioners across the country,

:11:34. > :11:35.incomes may have risen, retirement become comfortable,

:11:36. > :11:43.I don't think so, because people have bailed out their children.

:11:44. > :11:45.The changes in state retirement pension means that people

:11:46. > :11:53.Sometimes that is not a bad thing if it is for social inclusion

:11:54. > :11:56.but for a lot of people it is to make ends meet,

:11:57. > :11:59.it is to pay the mortgage, the debts on the credit card.

:12:00. > :12:01.The report by the Prudential suggests that those facing

:12:14. > :12:19.In a few minutes, Dawn will be here with the weekend sport.

:12:20. > :12:25.Plus, concerns for wildlife over a planned expansion of a holiday

:12:26. > :12:30.And the school using dams and storytelling to teach Indian culture

:12:31. > :12:35.and history. And it will be a mild weekend but a

:12:36. > :12:36.fair amount of cloud in the forecast. Join me later for the full

:12:37. > :12:39.forecast. Opponents of a planned expansion

:12:40. > :12:42.of a holiday village in North Yorkshire say it'll

:12:43. > :12:45.threaten a local wildlife haven. The owners of Raithwaite Hall

:12:46. > :12:48.near Whitby are hoping to develop a site nearby,

:12:49. > :12:50.building 200 holiday homes But the Woodland Trust says it

:12:51. > :12:55.could adversely affect wildlife and spoil the woods,

:12:56. > :13:02.as Phil Chapman reports. To the objectors, it's

:13:03. > :13:04.an irreplaceable ancient woodland To the developer, it's a partly

:13:05. > :13:10.forgotten woodland that they say could be sensitively developed

:13:11. > :13:12.to boost tourism for the community and for Yorkshire

:13:13. > :13:16.and the north-east. We are walking further

:13:17. > :13:19.into the ancient woodland now, where some of the lodges will be

:13:20. > :13:22.located, and you can see quite clearly how it's easy to put

:13:23. > :13:25.the piles in between the trees and thus there will be none

:13:26. > :13:29.of these trees destroyed. In fact, the whole of the management

:13:30. > :13:32.programme will be to improve the way the whole of the ancient woodland

:13:33. > :13:38.on the estate is handled. The Woodland Trust and some local

:13:39. > :13:41.objectors think the wood should be Don't get me wrong, I think it's

:13:42. > :13:46.a great idea to bring I don't think it's a bad

:13:47. > :13:50.idea, I just think it's We've got Dalby Forest,

:13:51. > :13:55.which is an evergreen I mean, we often compare it

:13:56. > :14:05.to being nature's cathedrals, so it is beautiful, it's tranquil,

:14:06. > :14:10.it's very much irreplaceable, it's You'd think we were destroying

:14:11. > :14:16.the whole of the woodland. Of the objectors that we have had

:14:17. > :14:19.from the Woodland Trust, many of them, most of them in fact,

:14:20. > :14:25.are not from this area. After taking in all the differing

:14:26. > :14:27.views during the consultation period, Scarborough Borough Council

:14:28. > :14:30.will be weighing up the pros and cons of this potential woodland

:14:31. > :14:32.development before making a decision A new generation has been

:14:33. > :14:45.learning about the history Children from Braeburn School

:14:46. > :14:50.in Scarborough met the Annapurna Indian Dance Company in a project

:14:51. > :14:53.organised by the Stephen The aim is to bring Eastern

:14:54. > :15:12.culture to the east coast, Connecting cultures with dance. Here

:15:13. > :15:15.at the Stephen Joseph Theatre in Scarborough, these children get a

:15:16. > :15:21.first taste of Indian dramatic traditions. The theatre has brought

:15:22. > :15:23.in the Annapurna Indian Dance Company to give local children on

:15:24. > :15:28.the east Coast experience of the culture they may not have

:15:29. > :15:31.encountered before. There is such excitement in sharing our rich

:15:32. > :15:36.stories with a whole new generation so they grow up in this

:15:37. > :15:40.multicultural Britain. It is all part of a new and expanded programme

:15:41. > :15:46.of education here at the Stephen Joseph Theatre. The funding has come

:15:47. > :15:50.from the local authority and the Arts Council. It is called the

:15:51. > :15:58.Scarborough Pledge and it aims to widen access. Annapurna Indian Dance

:15:59. > :16:04.Company are based in West Yorkshire. On the East Coast levels of

:16:05. > :16:09.integration are lower. It didn't stop these children having a go. It

:16:10. > :16:15.is exciting to learn. I think it is amazing because I like the way that

:16:16. > :16:23.the dancers have lots of colours. The monkey was weird. We have been

:16:24. > :16:26.learning about different cultures, looking at traditional tales at

:16:27. > :16:30.school and for them to come here and actively join in, and the dancing,

:16:31. > :16:35.it is lovely to see them all involved and it has been a fantastic

:16:36. > :16:36.day. Dramatic arts from distant shores bringing a new perspective

:16:37. > :16:49.for a new generation. Fantastic. I was taught and Indian

:16:50. > :16:50.dance once. Changing a light bulb. We just did country dancing at

:16:51. > :16:54.school. Definitely not exotic. Well we're down to just one survivor

:16:55. > :16:57.in this season's FA Cup. Middlesbrough fly the flag

:16:58. > :17:00.for the region with a home tie against League One Oxford,

:17:01. > :17:02.who knocked Newcastle out At stake for Boro

:17:03. > :17:04.a first quarterfinal Boro head coach Aitor Karanka

:17:05. > :17:10.insists he won't even think about the crunch Premier League game

:17:11. > :17:13.at Crystal Palace in eight days' That said, you would expect him

:17:14. > :17:17.to rotate his squad and rest some key players without wanting to give

:17:18. > :17:20.visitors Oxford too much of a chance to progress

:17:21. > :17:23.at the Teessiders' expense. My second season here was Man City

:17:24. > :17:27.and Arsenal and this one has been Accrington and Sheffield and now

:17:28. > :17:31.Oxford but again we have to be really, really careful

:17:32. > :17:34.because it is going to be a tough, tough game, especially

:17:35. > :17:36.if we don't go with the right The Spaniard's warning

:17:37. > :17:42.to his players is that Oxford, who knocked out an under-strength

:17:43. > :17:45.Newcastle, and will be cheered on by up to three and half thousand

:17:46. > :17:48.fans at the Riverside must We had problems against Accrington

:17:49. > :17:54.and our opponent beat Newcastle 3-0. When you analyse them,

:17:55. > :17:57.you can feel that it wasn't a coincidence,

:17:58. > :18:01.what they did to Newcastle, because they had players

:18:02. > :18:04.who scored really good goals, they play good counterattacks,

:18:05. > :18:07.so we have to now it has We know how difficult

:18:08. > :18:16.a task it is going to be. A side that did ever so well

:18:17. > :18:21.in the championship last year under Aitor Karanka and we know

:18:22. > :18:25.the quality they have got, we know what to expect,

:18:26. > :18:28.we just hope they have a poor day Premier League survival's

:18:29. > :18:33.the priority but a kind draw has seen Boro edge towards Wembley 20

:18:51. > :18:54.Hartlepool's clash with Pools now just two points

:18:55. > :19:02.above the relegation zone. Newcastle United don't

:19:26. > :19:29.says Villa's position shows how Both clubs, I think,

:19:30. > :19:33.obviously, devastating really Two massive clubs

:19:34. > :19:41.with a huge fan base. Obviously they are not quite doing

:19:42. > :19:44.as well as they should We have dealt with it better and it

:19:45. > :19:51.should make for a good game. It's the second oldest competition

:19:52. > :19:53.of its kind in the world, But the Northern League

:19:54. > :19:58.is in danger of seeing another Earlier this season,

:19:59. > :20:02.Norton and Stockton Ancients resigned from the League,

:20:28. > :20:31.on the playing side. I'm a very good spectator,

:20:32. > :20:34.I'm a very skilled spectator, I could do spectating at probably

:20:35. > :20:37.league level, to be honest. I am life president

:20:52. > :20:54.dying from neglect. Despite a successful youth section,

:20:55. > :20:57.the senior side is struggling We're getting 20, 30 at the moment,

:20:58. > :21:03.at a good gate and all. So, from a couple of hundred

:21:04. > :21:07.a couple of year ago, Unless people come through the gate,

:21:08. > :21:12.we just can't continue. Fixture clashes with

:21:13. > :21:15.Newcastle United, Premier League football beamed live into pubs

:21:16. > :21:17.and the success of neighbours South Shields have all contributed

:21:18. > :21:20.to the drain on numbers. There's 300 businesses in Hebburn,

:21:21. > :21:29.if just a small percentage were to sponsor the team in a small

:21:30. > :21:32.way, that would be And Jason is planning a comedy

:21:33. > :21:38.fundraising night in September called "Let's All Laugh At Hebburn"

:21:39. > :21:42.in a nice way. Hebburn does mean an awful lot

:21:43. > :21:45.to you, the town itself? Oh, yeah, I was born

:21:46. > :21:48.here, I was raised here, I've just been to see my mam,

:21:49. > :21:52.she only lives not far from there. It's Hebburn and to watch

:21:53. > :21:59.bits of its closing down and crumbling is really,

:22:00. > :22:01.really heartbreaking for us because this is one of the hearts

:22:02. > :22:05.of our community and I think we need And tomorrow, Hebburn's

:22:06. > :22:11.neighbours, South Shields, are at home to Newport Pagnell

:22:12. > :22:14.in the quarterfinals of the FA Vase. Now to cooler climes and it's

:22:15. > :22:18.a tough transition from Junior Derwentside's Mica McNeil

:22:19. > :22:25.and her brake woman They were recently crowned

:22:26. > :22:32.World Junior Bobsleigh Champions. This afternoon though

:22:33. > :22:33.they were competing in the senior women's event

:22:34. > :22:35.at the World Championships But after two runs, they'll

:22:36. > :22:39.begin Day Two tomorrow Finally good luck to our rugby

:22:40. > :22:47.league clubs in their first competitive games of

:22:48. > :22:49.the season on Sunday. The first pool matches

:22:50. > :22:51.of the League One Cup give Whitehaven an early chance

:22:52. > :22:53.for revenge over West Cumbrian neighbours Workington,

:22:54. > :22:55.winners of the pre-season Following their winter takeover

:22:56. > :23:02.York City Knights host North Wales Crusaders

:23:03. > :23:04.at Bootham Crescent and Newcastle Now, you may remember last

:23:05. > :23:12.month we told you about Abandoned, blind in one eye

:23:13. > :23:20.and with a protruding jaw. But, after he featured

:23:21. > :23:23.on Look North, the shelter where he was staying was overwhelmed

:23:24. > :23:25.with requests to re-home him. And this afternoon, he left

:23:26. > :23:27.with his new owners. It is easy to look at Fester,

:23:28. > :23:42.a dog who has had a sound thrashing with the ugly stick,

:23:43. > :23:44.and conclude that only his mother But to his new owners,

:23:45. > :23:51.Fester is quite the Bobby Dazzler. He bounces around,

:23:52. > :23:58.he is so happy and loving He loves a good cuddle

:23:59. > :24:05.so it's all very nice. Since Fester's first appearance

:24:06. > :24:11.on Look North a month ago, the Dogs' Trust near Darlington has

:24:12. > :24:13.been overwhelmed with people Once our first appeal went out

:24:14. > :24:20.with yourselves, it was really good. We thank everyone who enquired,

:24:21. > :24:23.everyone that came down and everyone that has adopted another dog

:24:24. > :24:27.instead as well. So you were able to find

:24:28. > :24:30.homes for other dogs? We managed to find some and we have

:24:31. > :24:35.had a lot more visitors to the site He looks a bit like an extra

:24:36. > :24:40.from Lord Of The Rings but when you meet Fester,

:24:41. > :24:42.he is an excellent dog, He has found a home

:24:43. > :24:47.but they are keen to stress here that there are about 100 other

:24:48. > :24:50.dogs that need a home, although none of them are quite

:24:51. > :25:09.as distinctive looking as him. I can hear people all over the

:25:10. > :25:11.region going awww. Time for the weather. We have skipped spring and

:25:12. > :25:20.gone straight to summer? It does feel like that. It has been

:25:21. > :25:24.a bit of a cloudy day today. This was one of the pictures across the

:25:25. > :25:29.Lake District earlier showing blue sky just trying to break through the

:25:30. > :25:34.cloud, but it didn't quite do so. This weekend, the cloud will stick

:25:35. > :25:39.around. A few outbreaks of light rain mostly on Saturday, and it is

:25:40. > :25:43.going to be mild. This is a satellite which earlier. We can see

:25:44. > :25:47.the cloud across the UK, of the north-east had sunshine for a time

:25:48. > :25:52.this morning. Cloud is rolling and it will be with most of us through

:25:53. > :25:56.the night. A few outbreaks of mostly white and patchy rain across

:25:57. > :26:01.Cumbria, some clear spells as well and so we might see a touch of mist

:26:02. > :26:09.and fog. Nothing too significant. A mild night. Tomorrow morning, parts

:26:10. > :26:13.of the north-east will wake up to blue skies but it will not last long

:26:14. > :26:16.as the cloud will roll in and we will see some outbreaks of rain

:26:17. > :26:21.spreading the most parts through the afternoon, but fairly light and

:26:22. > :26:26.patchy. This is 3pm. The rain will start to clear northern parts of

:26:27. > :26:31.Cumbria and Northumberland. Temperatures around 10-11 by this

:26:32. > :26:36.point. Much of the North East will be dry, a fair amount of cloud

:26:37. > :26:40.around and quite able is as well. Through Saturday night into Sunday,

:26:41. > :26:47.some further rain. Quite a cloudy picture. There is the rain coming

:26:48. > :26:52.through on Sunday morning. A lot of cloud and a mild night. Sunday

:26:53. > :26:58.morning looks like this. Starting on a damp note and then some blue skies

:26:59. > :27:03.breaking through. Western parts of Cumbria are likely to stay cloudy

:27:04. > :27:09.through Sunday afternoon and it will still be quite breezy but

:27:10. > :27:16.temperatures fairly mild. 12 Celsius, 54 Fahrenheit in some

:27:17. > :27:21.spots. For the start of next week, we see temperatures getting up to

:27:22. > :27:27.13, feeling quite mild, but a lot of cloud and it will be quite windy.

:27:28. > :27:30.Here is how things work for Cumbria over the weekend, some rain, a lot

:27:31. > :27:34.of grey cloud at times, but the north-east is most favoured to see

:27:35. > :27:37.some sunshine on Saturday and especially Sunday.

:27:38. > :27:44.So you can do all the jobs, do the garden, wash the car. Whatever you

:27:45. > :27:47.do, have a good one. See you on Monday.
