ABOUT THE TOWNS FUND
Stocksbridge is one of 101 towns in England selected to bid for the Govern ment’s £3.6 billion Towns Fund which aims to drive economic regeneration and level up the regions. On 27 July 2019, the Prime Minister announced that the Towns Fund would support an initial 101 places across England to develop Town Deal pro posals, to drive economic regeneration and deliver long-term economic and productivity growth. See further details of the announcement. PM speech at Manchester Science and Industry Mu seum - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) A Town Deal is an agreement in prin ciple between government, the Lead Council and the Town Deal Board. It will set out a vision and strategy for the town, and what each party agrees to do to achieve this vision.

The Government announced that the funding for Stocksbridge was ear marked in March 2021 after the town’s bid was submitted in January that year. The detailed case for each project now has to be reviewed and signed off be fore the money can be released and the projects can move to the next stage.
Over the last 12 months the Town Deal team has collaborated closely with local stakeholders, businesses and the wider community to refine the plans which ties for the town.

Thefound.rising cost of living is pushing thousands of families into poverty and more support from government must be an urgent priority.
Smith hopes that this is the beginning of bigger things to come as the progressive Oughtibridge club look to further the ca reer ambitions of the Ladies section aswell as their thriving junior section. On her debut Hayley told Look Local "I’m pleased with the progress we have made as a club and that the selectors have shown enough faith in me to pick me for this game’ adding ‘hopefully it will be the first of Hayley,many’.34originally from Hinckley, con tributed to an Oughtibridge win as they overcame Shelley CC in the blistering sun shine with 2 balls to spare, chasing down a formidable total of 223. Hayley’s fiance, Ol lie Black made 95 in the run chase, to help steer the side to victory in the Barnsley & District Cricket League, Division 3 West section.

Policing prioirities
Research by the University of York, 70.6% of households in Yorkshire are expected to be in fuel poverty in January next year. The region will be among the hardest hit, although the UK average of 65.8% is still grim reading as an estimated 45 million people across the UK will struggle to pay energy bills this winter, the research
It’s worrying for all, but I’ve no doubt that it’s placing extra burden on the shoulders of terminally ill people. They are at heightened risk of experiencing fuel poverty, as their symptoms will often make them feel colder and they will spend increasing amounts of time at home with the heating on as their condition deteriorates. Marie Curie’s research has shown that the average energy bill of a terminally ill person increases significantly in the aftermath of a diagnosis - sometimes by up to 75 per cent. In addition to the significant financial strain, the World Health Organisation estimates that 30 per cent of excess winter deaths are attributable to cold, damp housing. Fuel poverty not only hurts families financially, but can cost lives too.
Dear Editor, May I thank the kind person who handed in my lost purse to the driver of the No.1 bus on Thursday afternoon. I am very grateful to have it back. I will make a donation to the local food bank by way of appreciation so that your thoughtfulness will help someone in our community.

The bus service in Stocksbridge is increasingly dire. Please can you spend some time to create an immediate improvement. I am thinking especially of the service into Sheffield which I’ve never known to be as unreliable as it is now. Here is a text message I received today from my sister in law who moved into the area with my brother and their young adult son, during the pandemic: “this bus service is a disgrace. he was supposed to catch the 12:00 to middlewood we waited nearly 40 minutes no buses either way, he had to get an uber in the end. we feel like we are stranded here it’s awful.”

Dear TravellingEditoralong the Strines Road on Saturday I lost count of the numbers of police and police vehicles. There did seem to be a lot of off- roading.... and I saw men with guns! But then l realised this was just a sporting afternoon not long after the “ glorious” twelfth . Does anyone know why there were so many police around? Surely, given the dire figures for non investigation into burglaries and nearly total lack of convictions for rape cases, they can’t have all been there just to make rich, armed men with dogs feel safe?

POlice in Sheffield are looking to identify this man after a recovery truck was stolen in High Green on Tuesday 2nd August. The truck had been parked on Worrall Road when it was reportedly taken by two men at around 12.10am. It has since been recovered.
As we approach the winter, the UK Government must take urgent action to provide terminally ill people and other vulnerable people urgent, targeted support with the rising cost of energy bills. Without this support, we fear that many thousands of people living with terminal illness will be forced into poverty this winter, and many families may lose a terminally ill loved one before their time.
Marie Curie has launched a petition which has reached 91,000 signatures calling on the UK Government to grant working age people early access to their State Pension if they have a terminal illness, because nobody should die in poverty. The charity is also calling for greater support with energy costs to be made available to all terminally ill people, regardless of their age, and for more support with the costs of childcare for terminally ill parents with young children.

Mr Barker added: “This is an unparalleled project within the UK and will create one of the most technically ad vanced engineering facilities of its kind anywhere in the world.

EnginEEring specialist, Sheffield Forgemasters, has embarked on a programme to invest up to £400m over 10 years across its 64-acre site, writes greg Wright, for the Yorkshire Post. The company, which pro vides crucial components for the UK defence programme, is marking the first anniver sary of its acquisition by the Ministry of Defence.
