Highcliffe Road - almost there!
highcliffe

We are pleased that work on Highcliffe Rd in Sneinton is nearing completion.

Money bid for by the council through the Streets for People fund has enabled the road surface to be replaced and for there to be clear markings separating the pedestrian space from the car parking area. New trees will be planted to replace diseased trees which have been taken out and a new area of planting will take place at the junction with Sneinton Dale. The road is now looking much smarter and the road surface is safer to drive on.

‘We are delighted to bring about this much needed improvement to a key road in our community’ -Cllr Neghat Khan, local Councillor.

Remembrance Sunday at Green's Mill
remembrance

It was great to be joined by thirty residents of all ages from our diverse community who gathered on Remembrance Sunday at Green’s Mill to remember those who have given their lives in two World Wars and other conflict. Using poems, readings and 2 minutes silence, residents recognised the sacrifices of the past and shared hopes and prayers for peace in the world.

‘It is important to take time to remember the past and hope and pray for peace in the future’ said Cllr Gul Nawaz Khan who laid a wreath at the gates of the mill along with Cllr Neghat Khan.

Would you recognise the signs of gambling harm?
Gambling

Gambling can affect physical and mental health, damage relationships and leave people feeling lonely and isolated. It can also cause problems with employment, education, housing and lead to serious debt.  

Gambling-related harm is under-recognised and often hidden. Many people being harmed by gambling don’t see themselves as a person with a problem and don’t recognise the issues it’s causing. When people do recognise they may have a problem, it can be hard to talk about it, or to reach out for help because of guilt, shame or worry.  

If you notice that you, or someone you know is feeling stressed, anxious, thinking about gambling a lot of the time, or hiding their gambling from others, it could be a sign of gambling harm.

Become a foster carer
fostering

You can make difference for children in Nottingham by becoming a foster carer. The number of children in care in Nottingham is at a record high and we need more carers to provide children with a safe, secure and loving home. A home where they can thrive, grow and reach their potential.

Fostering is looking after a child when they can’t live with their own family. This can be for a couple of days, a few months, or many years. The children come from a range of different cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds.

As a foster carer with Nottingham City Council you will get a weekly allowance. The allowance varies according to the child’s age and number of children you foster.

To find out more, visit the website [ [link removed] ] or call 0115 876 3335.
