Sandwell Valley School Children Getting Free School Meals
Sandwell Valley School is now scrapping the £4 daily charge and providing free meals to all pupils. The owners of Smethwick’s Salma Food Bank and Cleone Foods have both vowed to give free school meals to Sandwell Valley School. The Black Country school had launched this programme two years ago on Birmingham Road in West
Bromwich. It has had an issue with many children going hungry for the duration of the day since they couldn’t manage the expenses of £4 for a meal, as per Wade Lyn, the owner of Cleone Foods. He has assured to keep the school’s coolers filled up with food at whatever point they require it. The Birmingham-based food
organisation is the brand behind the current Island Delight Jamaicanstyle patties that you will discover on the shelves in Asda and Sainsbury’s. Additionally, Imran Hameed the organiser of the Smethwick’s Salma Food Bank has prepared fresh foods to be delivered to the kitchens consistently every day. “I trained as a teacher back in the 1980s, and
By Tauseef Asif I know that a child who is hungry cannot concentrate. The school had a need; we manufacture food” said Mr Lyn. The school’s head teacher, Mim Hall has recognised a considerable effect; this move has had on both the students and staff. Ms Hall stated: “We are a charity and we can’t do everything by ourselves; we have limited assets. The help we have gotten from Wade and Imran implies that many of our kids don’t go hungry any more. Another thing that solves the issue is that it can get in the way of their education.” She also included: “To qualify formally with the expectation of free school meals, a student’s family should know the advantages. Many of these are considered to a lot of children, which are refugees who are hanging tight for advantages and were in danger of getting lost in through the cracks of the system. In any case, with the help of two local businessmen, rather than charging £4 per day for a meal, we can sustain numerous children for nothing. The individuals, who can bear the cost of it, can contribute from just £5 every week.” Sandwell Valley School has managed to cook for 138 students matured somewhere in the range of ages between 11 and 19, just by working with 40 apprentices.
Mundill Mahil to become Mayoress four years after serving sentence in jail
By Tauseef Asif
A ‘honey trap’ loveliness who tricked a smitten Sikh TV official to his horrific death is to become mayoress only four years after leaving jail. Mundill Mahil welcomed Gagandip Singh, 21, to her student flat where he was beaten brutally over the head by another man and then tied up with electrical line and stuck him in the car boot of his Mercedes, which was determined to flame. Mahil was punished for six years in jail for causing an offensive of real damage in 2012. However, it was discharged on a permit in 2014. Since her discharge from prison, serving half of her sentence, Mahil has modified her life by turning into a fitness coach and having a wedding with Varinder Singh Bola, a rising star of the Labour Party. Mr Bola this week declared he is the city’s Mayor-elect of one of London’s quickest developing precincts. This implies that Mahil will be allowed to enjoy the majority of the advantages just as the grandeur and functions that her better half’s position brings. His upset family today disclosed of how Mahil’s social climbing is an insult, particularly as she just served half of her sentence in jail. His sister Amandip Kaur Singh,
26, stated. “’That lady tricked my brother to a horrible death but served only three years in jail for it. She has just been out for a long time and is currently going to be a mayoress, through her better-half, however she will be respected as much regard as him. She will be on his arm at official functions, where without hesitation launch a charm offensive with the assembled celebrities. In any case, she doesn’t worth any of it. My sibling’s life was snatched away when it was going to truly start and as a family, we’ve
been attempting to struggle with it from that point onward. However, she’s served a small jail sentence, wedded a high-flying politician and is presently attempting to charm herself into the obliging society. Not once has she at any point admitted her fault or apologized to us. She’s proceeded onward and is attempting to imagine nothing at any point occurred.” Amongst her initial at the Old Bailey, the jury was informed that Mahil had ‘played God’ and
attracted Gagandip to his death by welcoming him to her flat in Brighton to get revenge for a sexual attack on her. Gagandip’s body was aftwerwards found in the boot of the burnt Mercedes vehicle, dumped 60 miles away close Greenwich Park, in South East London. Mahil appealed that she had no job in the assault and in spite of the fact that she was cleared of murder and she was sentenced for causing horrifying substantial damage. Another man, Harvinder Shoker, who was additionally captivated by Mahil, was sentenced for murder and imprisoned for at least 22 years and a third, Darren Peters, of murder, imprisoned for a long sentence. Condemning Mahil, Judge Paul Worsley QC said: “She had numerous remarkable characteristics, but on the other hand was manipulative, wrathful and tricky. Since her discharge, she has prepared as a fitness coach, aromatherapist and masseuse just as engaging with photography and charity work. She has likewise tried to agitatedly eradicate her past by launching no less than five websites, all giving nitty gritty portrayals of her accomplishments and qualities.”
Time To Tackle The Scourge Of The Smombies We all know them. Some of you may even count yourselves as among them. They’re the scourge of modern society, putting lives at risk with their selfishness and obsessive behaviour. They’re oblivious to others and their surroundings, engrossed only in feeding their never-ending addiction. They are the smombies – the smartphone zombies who stagger around like the undead, blind to everything but the screen in front of them. You’ll see them walking down the street, risking permanent spinal damage with their necks craned at 45 degrees, their elbows bent at 90 degrees and their eyes fixated on the device they’re holding in front of them. They’d rather walk face first into a lamppost than look up to see what obstacles – including other people - are in their way. It’s the same at roadsides. Forget the traffic on the road they’re about to cross – their priority is to squint at the latest social media update or WhatsApp message that are the foundations of their social interactions. The smombies are everywhere. Remember enjoyable, sociable conversations over dinner? Well forget it – the screen’s the only channel of nourishment they require. So before they lose all resemblance to living, breathing human beings, it’s time to act. In some parts of the world, they’ve realised the dangers posed by smombies and have enacted measures to combat them. In the eastern Chinese city of Wenzhou last month, a woman was fined for using her mobile phone while crossing the road. The penalty was for infringing regulations which ban activities that affect other vehicles or pedestrians. The overwhelming response was a collective yippee, with the overwhelming majority calling for the measures to be rolled out nationwide – and China’s a big country! Some other parts of China are also acting. In the northern city of Xi’an they’ve designated special lanes for pedestrians using their phones. Meanwhile, in the Hawaiian capital of Honolulu, legislation in the form of the Distracted Walking Bill means pedestrians can be fined for looking at their phones while crossing the road. The smombies’ gaze is always downwards, so in the German cities of Augsburg and Cologne they’ve installed the equivalent of traffic lights in the ground with red LEDs embedded in the pavement at tram crossings which flash as a tram approaches. And in Munich special beacons have been fitted at some dangerous tram crossings which send warnings to smartphones via an app, thereby making (ironically) full use of the very instrument which the smombies rely on for their existence. Thankfully, restaurants – a favourite haunt of smombies – and other drinking or dining venues in this country are also acting. Some have banned the use of mobiles while others have encouraged customers to hand them over on entry. The popular Frankie & Benny’s chain has even offered free kids’ meals to parents who give their phones over. Hopefully this movement against smombies gains traction and others follow suit. It might be the only way we can drag our friends, relatives and colleagues back into the ranks of the living! Mohammed Ilyas is Press and Publicity Manager for the Birmingham charity Islamic Help.
