In Nottinghamshire, around 70 tonnes of textiles are collected from domestic general waste every week.
At Christmas this increases significantly with around ¼million Christmas jumpers only being worn once 🥺
But there is a way to reduce this waste.

It's funny isn't it.
Our labour MP is inferring that his impassioned speech in Westminster has in some way led to the scrapping of the Council Reorganisation.
The leader of the Conservative Group is also claiming some sort of victory.

Neither are true.
LGR has been stopped next year in Nottinghamshire purely on the back of the Judicial Review initiated by Reform led County Council.
That's the simple fact.

It also begs the question, if Labour oppose it, and the Tories oppose it, why was it not shot down in Decmber 2024 when Rayner announced it.

Heads up on this one.
We are whitelining and studding the freshly resurfaced Lime Lane.
Quite a detour unfortunately.
Rest assured the work will be carried out as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Bumped into Sean while out campaigning in Gunthorpe, we had a chat about the two things I'm most passionate about.
Fixing the roads and motorcycles.

I was utterly privileged to have Jess Caine visit us at Nottinghamshire…

She bravely shared in a Talk TV interview that she is care experienced and that a foster carer truly changed her life…

Not only did Jess visit for two days looking at our provisions, but she chatted with me for around 20 minutes off the cuff on camera…

The point of this is two fold:

𝟏) To help all members of public understand the trauma and neglect our young people face.

𝟐) Why it is important that we have wonderful members of public stepping up to become foster carers with Foster for East Midlands Councils 🩷🩵
