What a ‘carry on’

This week Sheffield City Council’s Finance Sub-Committee will be considering the latest report on the current budget position. The quarterly review highlights the extraordi nary difficulties the council is in following a decade of government cuts which has seen the council’s spending power reduced by nearly £250m (30% of its overall budget). Making matters considerably worse for the city’s finances is the on-going cost of living crisis and inflationary pressures.

The 30-year-old, from Cumbernauld, Scotland, has issued a warning to other families about the online game, reports the Daily Record. It comes after Archie, 12, had his life support switched off just weeks be fore having suffered a catastrophic brain injury.

Councillor Bryan Lodge, Co-Chair of Finance

“Aftersub-committee:12yearsof government cuts the coun cil’s finances have been decimated. But right now, it has never been as serious as the costof-living crisis and inflation is bringing the city’s finances to the brink.

“There are a number of positions that the council have recruited to over the past year, and there are a number of posts where we have Interim Directors appointed. “We aren’t proposing that senior posts aren’t filled – but that we have staff here already who can take on these additional responsibilities. It would be irresponsible to be engaging in an expensive recruitment process at this time and focus needs to be on the budget rather than distractions around recruitment.

A concerned Grandmother wants to warn parents of a ‘dangerous’ Tik Tok challenge ‘killing’ several young teens.

This is after a reading an article in the Daily Mirror about a teen found dead in bedroom by mum after tak ing part in viral 'Blackout Challenge'

See page 6

Labour Councillor Bryan Lodge has called on the council to freeze re cruitment to vacant posts with a sal ary over £100k.

The council is currently hung – with no one political party having control – meaning that unlike in previous years it will not just be La bour councillors who will have to make dif ficult budget cuts.

The deadly challenge encourages people to restrict their breath until they fall unconscious.

“Many difficult decisions are coming down the line and this is the first year of the new coun cil structure with committees responsible for overseeing the delivery of services and control of their budgets. Labour councillors will hold all these committees to account”.

“It’s a hung council – with no party in overall control – making it even harder for Labour to take the strong action needed to get on top of the “We’vefinances.already seen Lib Dem and Green councillors misleading the public with their constant references to the Council being a Labour run administration – they need to be honest with the public and recognise their own responsibilities. “But we won’t shy from our responsibilities and will work hard to get this right and to put Sheffield first. Next week the council’s finance committee will meet, and Labour are propos ing that the council should suspend any highwage appointments whilst we stabilise the council finances.

D.Long (Arboriculturist & Urban Forester)

Jono Milnes, Yorkshire Ambulance Service Area Clinical Lead, South, said: “This is a really exciting time and initiative, which allows our patients to receive specialist in volvement from the very earliest opportu nity, supporting our aim in becoming the best emergency and urgent care provider by Data2023.”will be gathered throughout the pilot period to help measure the impact of the video triage and gather learning.

Stop Rwanda Dear Editor, The announcement of the next Prime Minister isn’t the only thing happening on the 5th September. That’s also the day we take the Government back to court over their brutal Rwanda policy.

The Highways Act has been amended to impose a Duty for local highway authorities (Councils) in England to consult before felling street trees. It also states that local authorities “MUST have regard to any guidance given by the Secretary of State to local highway authorities about how to discharge the duty”. Mr Smith informed that the guidance was due to be published shortly, for consultation. About the duty, Smith informed: “that flowed from what occurred in Sheffield… it’s all about ensuring that Local Authorities don’t fell healthy trees.” He said that the Forestry Commission (FC) was producing guidance on how to identify whether or not a felling licence is necessary. On costs associated with the duty, he said: “local authorities will be given an amount to contribute to what is deemed to be the appropriate costs of implementing that…”.

We have had an enquiry from a local school, and whilst the school itself cannot apply, a group within the school, eg a gardening group, could do so.

New PM

We must show the Government just how many of us think the Rwanda plan is inhumane. I am writing to you today to lend my voice to the #StopRwanda campaign and urge you to do the same. From publishing a story on the appalling details of the plan to calling on our local MPs to #StopRwanda, you can make a huge impact. We only have a week until the court case, and we urgently need people to show support for charities like Care4Calais and campaigns like Stand Up to Racism who are challenging the Rwanda policy.

the Sheffield City Council Executive Director for ‘Place’ stated: “The Council does not have a duty to develop a strategic approach to sustainability… The Council is required to have regard to the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) as a material consideration in the exercise of its planning functions. The NPPF sets out the government’s expectations for sustainable development, or growth…” The ETAP informs that the UK Government has introduced the aforementioned changes to: “make sure the planning system fully recognises all the benefits trees provide” and “to make sure trees in the urban environment are no longer seen as a management liability because of the costs, rather that they are seen as an important asset.” These positive changes will initiate a positive cultural shift in the way society values and cares for the natural elements of the built environment, particularly ‘green infrastructure’. The committee system of local Government that the Council adopted last year, and the positive changes that STAG have already secured, will help minimise the likelihood, continuity, or repetition, of previous wrongs and associated conflicts and losses. These changes include the introduction of a highway Tree Wardening programme, assessments of canopy cover, and monetary valuations of associated beneficial ecosystem services, and the formal adoption of tree strategies. The strategies will help ensure a strategic approach to tree population management, so that trees are managed sustainably, in a way that represents current good practice.

“I’ll be writing to the new Prime Minister this week, extending the invitation I offered to her predecessor to visit South Yorkshire, and in turn reassure our communities that this government is committed to raising its focus beyond London and the “OurSouth-east.communities across South Yorkshire need to feel confident that they can rely on the new Prime Minister and her government to improve the health and wealth of our region, even more so at a time where all too many people in our region are faced with tough decisions about whether to heat their homes or put food on the table.

Stroke patients benefit from new Video Pilot

Supported by the South Yorkshire Inte grated Stroke Delivery Network (SY ISDN) the pilot will run for six months from midAugust 2022 and has the aim of improving stroke patient outcomes across the region.

Sheffield is a welcoming place. We treat each other with compassion. That’s why our community should be appalled that the Government is choosing to threaten victims of war, torture and persecution with the callousness of deportation to Rwanda, especially when there are more humane options available that would comply with the international human right to claim asylum.

Janet hods@sheffieldcivictrust.org.ukRidler

Those who are experiencing symptoms of a suspected stroke will have a video triage assessment with a stroke specialist at one of the Hyper Acute Stroke Units (HASU) across the region. An app, provided by GoodSAM, will support a video triage be tween the patient and the Stroke Team at either Doncaster Royal Infirmary or Royal Hallamshire Hospital.

“In this region we have the ambition to build an economy that’s innovative, sustainable and fair. I want to see the Truss Government step up to match our aspiration with the tools and resources we need to make South Yorkshire thrive. If not, the people of South Yorkshire will see this Prime Minister as it saw the last, with promises that are left undelivered.”

I’m sure like many others in Sheffield, I have followed the development of the refugee crisis closely for some years and I have witnessed how so many people in our community have responded with kindness as the shocking crises in countries like Syria, Afghanistan and Ukraine have unfolded in recent years. We’ve welcomed asylum seekers with compassion, as our new neighbours. Now we need to respond in a similar way to stop innocent refugees being deported to Rwanda.

You have the power to sign post supporters to these organisations – I hope you can join the fight to #StopRwanda.

“The video triage trial means the correct assessment for a patient having a stroke can literally make a big difference to the patient’s future quality of life. What more could a patient want than a specialist stroke doctor being involved in the diagnosis from the minute you enter the ambulance. Excit ing news for everyone.”

In July 2021, the National Planning Policy Framework was revised and now includes the following requirement: “planning policies and decisions should ensure that new streets are treelined… unless, in specific cases, there are clear, justifiable and compelling reasons why this would be inappropriate.” A new National Model Design Code supplements the National Design Guide and is intended to: “ensure that local planning authorities produce local design guides and codes, to apply the principles in the National Design Guide”. The Code directs users to make use of the aforementioned technical guidance when considering development Inproposals.March2017,

Tree action group

Yours sincerely,Jessica

Mr Smith informed that, as part of the England Trees Action Plan 2021 to 2024 (ETAP), the Government would publish guidance for local authorities to develop their own local tree and woodland strategies, as well as new ‘Supplementary Technical Guidance for Highway Tree Management’. The latter is being drafted, with arboricultural input, and will supersede the Operations Note (051) that the FC published upon conclusion of its investigation of alleged illegal tree felling by Sheffield City Council.

“Congratulations to Liz Truss MP on her appointment as our new Prime Minister. Many may not have voted for her, but we are all now relying on her ideas, energy, and judgement.

South Yorkshire has been successful in securing funding along with seven other regions to pilot Stroke Video Triage. The pilot has been commissioned by NHSE and primarily involves Yorkshire Ambu lance Service, Royal Hallamshire Hospi tal in Sheffield, and Doncaster Royal In firmary.

There’s plenty going on in our local area with events including the Steel Valley Heritage Walk, the Heritage of Bolsterstone Inventors and Archaeologists walk, an open day at Stocksbridge Valley Museum and an exploration of the next planned route of the Upper Don Trail and the TransPennine Trail. There are many more events happening across Sheffield and South Yorkshire - you can find out what’s on in the free Sheffield Heritage Open Days brochure which can be picked up from The Venue, Stocksbridge Library, the Leisure Centre and other outlets, or downloaded from Heritagewww.sheffieldhods.comOpenDaysisafantastic way to engage with and learn about our local history and heritage. All the events across the Sheffield area are organised by local groups and coordinated by myself, together with a team of volunteers, on behalf of Sheffield Civic Trust. I shall also be leading some ‘behind the scenes’ tours of Sheffield Town Hall this weekend so I might see some of you Ithere!hope you will enjoy 10 days of amazing free heritage events between 9 – 18 September; do let us know what you enjoy best and if there’s anything you’d like to see added to the programme next year.

There is another round of paticipatory budgeting ready to be awarded. All groups are invited to look at the application forms and submit a bid. £60,000 is on offer but no one group can apply for more than £20,000. Groups need to have a bank account and Thererules.are application forms and information sheets in the library. If you need to ask questions, the clerks are in on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 10 'til 2 at the Town Hall. 0114 2887895.

The video call will help ensure that patients can be taken directly for treatment, increas ing the speed in which the patient receives stroke intervention treatment and reduc ing handover times for staff on scene. It will also help in the identification of stroke mimics who may then be taken to the near est Emergency Department.

Last November I attended the National Tree Officers Conference. I’ll just share some of what the Forestry Commission’s National Urban Forestry Advisor –Jim Smith – had to say.

Dear Editor, On 25/8/2022, Sheffield Tree Action Groups (STAG) – the umbrella group that represents all tree groups in the city – celebrated its seventh anniversary.

The South Yorkshire Stroke Survivor and Carer Panel supported the funding bid from the SY ISDN. The Panel was devel oped to allow those who are living with stroke or caring for someone with stroke to share their views and help shape stroke services in the region. Mandy Rylance, Stroke Survivor and Dep uty Chair of the Panel, said: “I strongly be lieve that after having lived experience of a stroke, the contribution panel members can give to any future projects is significant.

This Friday 9 September marks the start of Heritage Open Days, a 10-day national festival which sees historic venues and buildings open up to the public and put on special tours, talks and events especially for the Heritagefestival.Open Days is England’s biggest festival of heritage and culture, and across the Sheffield area we have over 130 events planned between 9 – 18 September. You can visit places which are normally closed to the public, go behind the scenes, and access places which normally charge for admission – all completely FREE!

Lots of love from Angela Parr and all the family.

Completed bids need to be in by (FRIDAY, 16TH SEPTEMBER) to check bid applications against criteria. The projects are to be voted on at The Venue, on Tuesday, 11th October, where all members of the community are invited to attend and Comevote.on folks, I know time is tight, but get your skates on, to make our valley a better place to live and work for everyone.

The four major criteria are environmental, access works, road safety measures and recreational facility improvements. I believe that bids connected to the forthcoming crisis in increasing costs over the Winter will be included.

Legion enjoy big win

Spencer’s Dash of the summer second claim Penistone runner Kai Sunman was the race winner in a very quick time of 19-30.

After an even start, Ryan Keeney head ed Southey in front at the back post from a corner.

The Owlerton outfit kept things close early doors, but three 5-1s in the space of four races mid-meet ing created a healthy enough gap for the hosts.

The Tigers certainly spent plenty of time in the mix on an entertaining night of racing at the National Speedway Stadium.

Legion made an early double change and quickly equalised when Niall Smith beat his man and pulled back for Mitch Savage to slam home from the penalty spot after 30 mins.

SHEFFIELD’s wait to cement their Premiership play-off place goes on after being beaten 54-36 at Belle Vue. Just as they did on their previous visit two months ago, the Tru Plant Tigers found things tough against their rivals who ended their regular home league campaign with an unbeaten record in Manchester.
