A new children's hospital could be built next to the Queen Elizabeth | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
Hospital in Birmingham, creating one of the biggest medical | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
It would cost ?430 million, replacing facilities, which in | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
Here's our health correspondent Michele Paduano. | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
Archie is six months old and has never left hospital. | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
The Children's Hospital is a world centre of excellence | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
for heart conditions like his and he needed an operation. | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
But when he was born at the Women's Hospital, | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
Alfie was moved and Emma didn't see him before | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
It was awful because I couldn't stop crying at the Women's. | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
I didn't get to see him and it was really scary as well, the | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
Moving sick, young children is far from ideal. | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
Now the radical decision by both trusts is to merge by 2017 and | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
create a brand new joint hospital by 2022 at a cost of ?430 million. | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
Absolutely both boards are committed to doing whatever they | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
In order to make the hospital happen, we need to come together | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
Clearly that has to have happened by the time the hospital opens | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
This building is famous. It is 122 years old but it is not right for | :01:22. | :01:29. | |
modern medicine. By selling it, they can raise some of the money | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Elsie May Goody was born at 24 weeks on the edge of survival. | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
Now 33 weeks old, she weighs just 3lbs 5oz. | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
Twice she has had to be sent to the children's hospital | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
It will be better because then she won't | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
have to go to and from Children's for surgery. It is easier for her. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
The new women's hospital will be built here. | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
It's not known if this site belonging to the university could | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
But a merger offers many cost savings and tough | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
Especially for small babies and for girls reaching adolescence, | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
There is a lot we have already got in common and the relationships | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
between the different communities are already quite strong. | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
But the biggest winners will be the babies and children. | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
The former home of the Cadbury family in Birmingham has been | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
Northfield Manor House had been listed as a Grade A historic | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
building and was about to be sold to a property developer. | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
But now its long term future is in doubt. | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
Going up in flames, part of Birmingham's heritage. | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
Northfield Manor was once the grand home of the Cadbury family. | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
This morning it was little more than a smouldering shell. | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
From above, the damage is even clearer. | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
The fire destroying almost all of the house. | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
It was the second time in 24 hours that West Midlands Fire Service had | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
We have to retain the building as much as possible. | :03:08. | :03:16. | |
We know children were using the site and were chased off at some point. | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
Putting the jigsaw together, we going along the lines | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
of arson but an investigation is underway. | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
For members of the Cadbury family, who used to live at Northfield | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
Manor, shock at the fire and concern for the local community. | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
The sad thing about somebody making such a crime is that, it permeates | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
into the lives of so many other people who have strong memories, | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
very happy memories and it is a direct attack on their memory and | :03:53. | :04:14. | |
Since 1953 it's been owned by the University of Birmingham | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
and used as halls of residence, but in 2007 it was boarded up. | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
The question now is simply, has Northfield Manor been too badly | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
Farmers across the region are making the most of recent dry weather | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
But some are concerned that because many chemical sprays have | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
been banned or restricted under EU law, their yields could be lower | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
than expected and claim their crops have been more prone to disease. | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
It means that despite the recent weeks of sunshine, they | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
probably won't be recording the bumper crop they were hoping for. | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
It was a mild winter so lots of the disease didn't get killed. | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
It was a wet winter and wet spring which may have had | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
A former parent`governor of Golden Hillock School in Birmingham, | :04:57. | :05:10. | |
which was one of the schools at the centre of the so called Trojan Horse | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
plot, says he'll continue to work to support his children's school. | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
A report into the alleged plot by Muslim extremists found there was | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
evidence of an aggressive Islamist ethos in some of the schools. | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
Mohammed Ashraf was taking part in a debate | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
about the political fallout from the row, which resulted in five schools | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
Our reporter Lindsay Doyle is at the Drum in Birmingham for us tonight | :05:30. | :05:37. | |
So Lindsay how did this debate come about? | :05:38. | :05:47. | |
It is the result of a debating society that follows on from a | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
famous debating society that used to exist at being `` Birmingham is a | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
site `` Birmingham University. It looks that people affected in | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
Birmingham. Tonight it was the subject of the Trojan Horse plots. | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
People were given the chance to express their views on what they | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
have thought of this story developing of the last four months. | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
He said he was impressed by the knowledge of the reports carried out | :06:16. | :06:32. | |
and says although he is no longer a governor, he intends to continue | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
fighting to improve children's education. We need to give our | :06:38. | :06:46. | |
children better. We're not going to go away. We have to make sure we | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
give our children every opportunity, every single parent and every | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
community a chance. We have to do that. That is a priority. This was a | :06:58. | :07:07. | |
chance for local people to give their opinions and views stop there | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
was no official representatives here from the council or from Ofsted. The | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
chance of people to say how they feel about the way things have been. | :07:19. | :07:20. | |
There was more medal success for our athletes at the | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
Commonwealth Games today, with one silver and two bronze. | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
The silver was won by 20`year`old Jazmin Sawyers from Stoke | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
Her final jump was just two centimetres short of | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
But there was disappointment for Shara Proctor in the same event. | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
Despite leading the rankings going into the final, the 25`year`old, | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
who trains with the Birchfield Harriers, pulled up injured in her | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
The Bronze medals came from the England team in the Para lawn bowls. | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
Birmingham's Bob Love showed great skill bowling with his feet and | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
Paul Brown, from Ross`On`Wye Bowling Club, helped England beat | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
Scotland in the bronze medal match with his last bowl of the contest. | :08:02. | :08:16. | |
We'll be back at Breakfast from just before 6.30 tomorrow morning. | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
I'll leave you with the weather from Rebecca. | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
It has been a day of sunshine and showers and as we had to the next | :08:24. | :08:36. | |
few days, we continue with that theme. We have more rain in the | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
forecast. There would be some sunny spells at times. Our temperatures | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
are going to be down on where they have been recently. Overnight | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
tonight, we have some clear skies developing. It is a dry end to the | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
day and dry as we head into tomorrow. Trumpeters will drop away. | :08:55. | :09:02. | |
Towns and cities, we are staying between 13 and 15 Celsius. Tomorrow | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
begins nicely in the south and east of the region. Across the north and | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
west, we have showers. It will become more persistent. Temperatures | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
are going to struggle. For the south and east, it is a little better. | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
There is more on the way in the National forecast next. | :09:23. | :09:31. | |
Rain for Saturday. Now to John who will take you through the national | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
forecast across the UK. Hello there. You may have to find | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
ways of occupying the children. A lot of rain for some, not so much | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
for others. That was the way in July but overall whelmingly warm. Not as | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
warm as last year but it continues the run of months with higher than | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
average temperatures. The eighth now in a row. On to August, a few | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
showers around. That is across the north and the west. Lots of dry | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
weather between. A mild night at dawn, the temperatures about the | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
mid-teens. You may wake up to sunshine but the general trend | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
through the day is for things to deteriorate across the northern and | :10:13. | :10:14. | |
western parts of England and Wales where the showers will begin to | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
merge into | :10:17. | :10:17. |
