blues brothers head for homelessness charity in fancy dress week Break out the snazzy sunglasses, the sharp black suits and the pork pie hats… the Blues Brothers are heading for homelessness charity Emmaus Sheffield. Emmaus Sheffield is the working community with quality, self-contained accommodation, training facilities and a workspace for previously homeless men and women aged 18 years and over. It aims through its Social Enterprise
programme to provide meaningful work and enable the people it supports – known as companions - to eventually become self-supporting once more. And it is companion Darren Robinson who has come up with the idea of a special Blue Brothers Fancy Dress Week at the Emmaus Sheffield headquarters in Cadman Street in support of one of his favourite charities. Darren lost his father to Multiple
Sclerosis and decided he wanted to do something positive to honour his memory. So from October 26 he will be hosting a fancy dress week themed around The Blues Brothers, the cult 1980 musical action comedy starring John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd. “Here at Emmaus we are committed to supporting other charities that our companions feel passionate about,” said Emmaus Sheffield Marketing and
Development Manager Charley Fedorenko. “Darren, who is a recent new companion at Emmaus Sheffield, came up with the wonderful idea to support MS Society in memory of his late father who sadly passed away after a 30 year battle with the condition. Darren is passionate about raising awareness for families and careers who are living with loved ones suffering with MS and here at Emmaus we are
proud to be part of his fundraising. Any donations big or small will be greatly appreciated to fund ongoing research and provide support to families being impacted by MS.” Staff and visitors are being encouraged
to get in the Blues Brothers spirit by dressing in the stars’ distinctive style when they visit. And anybody wanting to make a donation should visit www. justgiving.com/ page/emmausbluesbrothers?

News, Information and Advice airport brought into public ownership foundation South Yorkshire’s Mayor and leaders are set to approve a landmark deal to bring Doncaster Sheffield Airport and the adjacent Innovation Quarter employment land site into public ownership, subject to the conclusion of an agreement between South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA), City of Doncaster Council (CDC) and Peel Land. The proposals, which are subject to formal approval at the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority Board on 27 October, and agreement by the Board of the developers Peel Land, would see South Yorkshire MCA buy the airport and adjacent Innovation Quarter employment land. Should that deal go through, it will mark a major milestone in the region’s progress towards reopening Doncaster Sheffield Airport and the realisation of the wider South Yorkshire Airport City vision, set to create one of the UK’s leading hubs for sustainable aviation, advanced manufacturing and innovation. If approved by both Boards, the purchase would provide the long-term control, certainty and flexibility needed to unlock one of the most significant economic opportunities in South Yorkshire, helping create thousands of good jobs, attract significant private investment and support the development of a world-leading hub for sustainable aviation and innovation. Oliver Coppard said: “I’m delighted to say that subject to formal approval of the MCA Board next week and then Peel, we’ve agreed a deal that means we’re taking Doncaster Sheffield Airport and adjacent Innovation Quarter employment land into public ownership. This is a deal that puts the future of DSA back in our hands and finally gives one of the biggest and best growth opportunities in South Yorkshire the platform for long-term success that it needs and deserves. Four years ago, we were told that our airport would be closing. But alongside Ros Jones, I said I would do anything I could to save DSA, and I meant it. Which is why after months of negotiations and
the growing flexibility afforded to us by the government’s devolution agenda, today we can announce that we have come to an agreement for SYMCA to buy the airport and Innovation Quarter employment land from Peel. Subject to the agreement of the MCA Board next week, the airport and surrounding Innovation Quarter employment land will be owned and controlled by us, for us; the people of South Yorkshire. This deal means our future will be in our own hands again. When the airport closed, almost everything was against us; the owners did not want to sell, we had no legal powers to intervene or stop the airport from closing, and no backing from the government at the time. Today, the future for DSA is bright, with the airport back in our hands, the sky’s the limit.” Mayor of Doncaster Ros Jones said: “Fully reopening this airport is my number one priority and with the backing and support of South Yorkshire this deal will make that become a reality. This is the right option for the airport – to get it into public ownership and reopened as soon as possible. This is ambitious and the partnership with SYMCA builds on the strong foundations we have built up over the past four years, a foundation upon which we can build together as a team. In Doncaster, we have worked hard to get the preparations ready, in relation to airspace certification and airfield readiness, getting key staff in place and importantly keeping those critical conversations with airlines, businesses and support services going. More will be shared when the time is right. Our communities have cheered us on throughout as well as local businesses and campaigners and I would like to thank them for their faith in this airport. This deal presents an amazing opportunity to get the people’s airport open again. I look forward to discussing this further next week.” Doncaster Sheffield Airport closed in November 2022, leaving South Yorkshire one of the largest city regions without a commercial aviation presence and creating significant uncertainty about the
future of the site. Since then, SYMCA, City of Doncaster Council, local MPs, Government and other partners have worked together to develop plans to bring aviation back to the region. Meanwhile, teams at the airport have been working at pace to realise the airport’s potential as soon as is practical. This has included the recruitment of senior aviation leaders as heads of department, progressing important regulatory milestones, such as the Airspace Change Proposals, and making procurement decisions on various technology and equipment that will ensure the airport can operate effectively, for example fire tenders and a new radar system. Over the last 12 months, negotiations have continued with Peel Land to explore options for the future of the airport and Innovation Quarter. Those discussions have now concluded, resulting in an agreement that will be presented to South Yorkshire leaders for consideration later this month. Freight services are planned to return from Autumn 2027, with passenger services returning Spring 2028, subject to the completion of the regulatory and operational work required to reopen the airport. tephen Wild, Managing Director of Peel Land said: “There has been significant collaboration, and we continue to work closely with our partners at the City of Doncaster Council and the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority to achieve the wider vision.” The project is not without risk to the taxpayer given the sums of public funding involved, however, the report recommends the approval of the project. Approval would see SYMCA become the freehold owner and landlord to the CDC lease. South Yorkshire leaders will consider the proposals at the SYMCA Board meeting at 3.30pm on Tuesday 27 October. Further information will be available in the SYMCA Board Papers, which were published on October 20th. City of Doncaster Council also considered the proposals at an extraordinary Cabinet meeting on 21 October.
alzheimer society advice
Alzheimer’s Society opens is urging families across Yorkshire and to prepare for sensory room Humber the clocks going back Burton Street Foundation has officially opened its new Sensory Room, transforming the space into a colourful underwater world where children and adults with disabilities can explore, unwind and enjoy a calming sensory experience. Packed with extraordinary detail, the room combines vibrant visual effects and music to create an immersive environment designed to promote relaxation and wellbeing. The project was brought to life by Burton Street’s in-house designer, Jill Martin, whose creativity and hard work helped turn the vision into reality. The Burton Street Client Board also played an important role, sharing ideas and helping shape the design around what clients wanted from the space. Working together, clients and staff have created a room that reflects the wishes of the people who use it. Client Board member Elaine Purkiss had the honour of officially opening the room by cutting the ribbon. Elaine said: “I was really proud to cut the ribbon. I think the room is lovely, and I feel brilliant when I’m in there. As the Client Board, we put our heads together to decide what we wanted to see in the room. It’s great to see how it’s turned out!” Jill said: “We worked hard to create a calm, underwater world for our clients to explore. It’s become a real ‘wow’ room, and I’m amazed by the transformation. More than anything, I hope our clients love it as much as I’ve enjoyed creating it, and that it gives them a safe, peaceful space.” Burton Street Foundation would like to thank Sheffield Town Trust, Sheffield Association for the Disabled and all other donors for their generous support in making the project possible. Burton Street Foundation supports over 250 people with learning disabilities, physical disabilities, mental health conditions and autism. The new Sensory Room reflects the social enterprise’s ongoing commitment to creating welcoming community spaces that promote wellbeing, encourage independence and enhance the lives of the people it supports.
this weekend, as the change in daylight and routine can be unsettling for some people living with dementia. On Sunday 25 October, clocks across the UK will go back by one hour. For people living with dementia, darker mornings and evenings can make it harder to distinguish between different times of day and may disrupt the body’s natural sleep-wake cycle. There are around one million people living with dementia in the UK today with more than 80,500 of those across Yorkshire and Humber. Debbie Foster of Alzheimer’s Society in the region shares four top tips to help families, friends and carers prepare for the clocks going back. Four practical tips for when the clocks go back 1. Prepare the night before Consider having dinner and going to bed an hour later than usual on Saturday evening. This can help the person get their usual amount of sleep and wake up at their normal time on Sunday. 2. Keep to a familiar routine Regular activities at the same time each day, such as going for a walk after breakfast, can help regulate a disrupted body clock and help someone with dementia make sense of the time. 3. Make the most of
daylight Getting outside and taking some gentle exercise can help someone feel sleepier in the evening. If going outside isn’t possible, having plenty of light in the home in the morning, or using a lamp or lightbox, can also help. 4. Consider an autosetting clock Radio-controlled and auto-setting clocks automatically adjust to the correct time. Day and Night clocks can also help people living with dementia distinguish between different times of day. As the days become colder, Alzheimer’s Society also advises families to help people with dementia stay warm, encourage regular movement, make the most of the natural daylight, and ensure they eat and drink regularly. Debbie said: “The clocks going back might seem like a small change, but for someone living with dementia a sudden shift in daylight and routine can be confusing or unsettling ” With the nights are drawing in, Alzheimer’s Society is also encouraging people to check in on loved ones, friends and neighbours living with dementia.

Disabled passengers will be better protected from having wheelchairs damaged when they fly and will receive better support from trained airport and airline staff, as new accessibility improvements are rolled out across the aviation industry. The changes will help tackle the barriers many disabled people face throughout their journeys – helping them access clear information, receive appropriate assistance at the airport, and have the peace of mind their wheelchairs will be handled carefully by staff while in transit. More than 1,000 wheelchairs were damaged in transit in 2024 alone, equivalent to more than 80 every month. For passengers who rely on wheelchairs every day, a damaged wheelchair can mean losing their independence, missing out on hard-earned holidays or vital work meetings, facing lengthy waits for specialist repairs, and suffering physical and mental health impacts. The changes come as a new report by the Aviation Accessibility Implementation Group highlights progress is being made in making air travel more accessible for disabled passengers, with improvements shaped by passengers’ own experiences. Staff awareness has also been strengthened through training designed with disabled passengers, helping staff recognise different needs, and provide the right support without people having to repeatedly explain their disability. A new digital platform is also set to be trialled, enabling disabled passengers to provide
their support needs before they travel, so help can be better prepared in advance. This could include buggy assistance in airports, access to separate assistance queues at security checkpoints, or a quiet waiting area before departure. Airlines, airports and mobility aid manufacturers have also joined forces in a UK-first partnership to ensure wheelchairs and other mobility aids, particularly those with lithium batteries, are safe to carry and better handled in transit. The report comes as the Government’s Civil Aviation Bill progresses through Parliament, which will give air passengers stronger protection and consumer rights. This includes allowing swifter, stronger action to be taken by the independent aviation regulator, including fines, when airlines or airports don’t properly support disabled passengers, or compensate cancelled flights. The Bill will also remove the compensation cap for lost or damaged wheelchairs and mobility aids on domestic UK flights, to ensure compensation is appropriate for any damage. A consultation will also launch on a range of accessibility reforms within 12 months of the Bill receiving Royal Assent. This comes after Government scrapped extra charges for parents sitting with their children, to help families with the cost of living – part of the Prime Minister’s efforts to provide ‘everyday fixes’ that give people some breathing space.

Cast is a fantastic organisation with deep roots in Doncaster and a clear
commitment to engaging with people across the city. Its work goes far beyond the theatre itself, creating opportunities for people of all ages to experience the arts, develop their creativity and connect with others. Sport and culture both have an important role to play in bringing communities together, so we’re excited to have Cast as part of our Club150 network and look forward to working with the team throughout the season.” Cast’s programme spans largescale productions and touring shows alongside smallerscale and emerging work. Its second performance space can accommodate up to 200 people and showcases touring productions and new work. The theatre also works with regional, national and international creative
partners, with performances and projects involving organisations including the National Theatre and Royal Opera House sitting alongside work from early-career artists. Through its programme of performance, participation and artist development, Cast continues to play a key role in Doncaster’s cultural life, while providing opportunities for people across the borough to engage with the arts. Having opened in 2013, Cast welcomes around 120,000 audience members every year. It runs a vibrant participation programme, engaging with people of all ages and backgrounds from communities across Doncaster, encouraging them to take part in workshops, events, and productions.

blades share points with rams pedersen sacked as owls lose to donny
It was honours even at Bramall Lane on Saturday lunchtime, as United came from behind to get a point against ten-man Derby County. The visitors had taken the lead through Bobby Clark, but the sending off of Dion Sanderson gave the hosts renewed hope with Patrick Bamford getting the equaliser and only the performance of Jacob Zetterström in Derby’s goal denied the Blades all three points. Boss Wilder made two changes for the hosting of Derby County, with Choudhury and Bamford both restored to the starting XI. McGuinness missed out due to concussion protocols, with Ayew dropping to the bench. Seriki was back amongst the substitutes, but Oné missed out with a reoccurrence of a hamstring issue. United had the first sight of goal, but Brereton Diaz couldn’t connect cleanly at the back post from Chong’s deep cross, before Nyambe was cautioned for pulling the shirt of Bamford who had got the better of him. As the half progressed, Derby came into it as an attacking threat, forcing a
flurry of corners. Cooper was called into his first meaningful action on 35 minutes, before Meister was denied from a promising position having broken the offside trap. But on 38 minutes, having earlier seen in effort tipped round the post, CLARK made no mistake on the rebound after Hedges had hit the post from a Szmodics through ball and that was the last action of note of the first half. On 57 minutes, United made a double change, with Seriki and Peck introduced, as Choudhury and Arblaster made way, from the restart of those substitutions, Bamford teed up Brereton Diaz, but his curling effort went over the bar. Kitching was cautioned for pulling back Ozoh, before Sanderson was giving his marching orders on 66 minutes for fouling Seriki as United looked to break. The red card had enable United to throw
caution to the wind and Donovan stung the palms of Zetterström from distance and following a series of corners, the Blades deservedly restored parity with BAMFORD getting the touch to divert home from Donovan’s inviting cross, but that was his last action of the game as he exited through injury. Pushing for a winner, Chong was inches away from connecting with Campbell’s low cross, before Zetterström handled an effort from Peck well given the conditions. Seven minutes of added time were signalled and only an unbelievable save from Zetterström kept out Campbell’s strike on the turn. The Swedish stopper made sure of a point for the Rams with another save to deny Peck, with Campbell unable to convert the rebound.

Archie Houston went close on 40 minutes but Dinnington scrambled the ball away.

In the aftermath of Henrik Pedersen’s departure the club made the following statement: “Sheffield Wednesday Football Club confirms that Henrik Pedersen has left the club with immediate effect. Henrik led the first team through an exceptional period in the club’s history, providing stability and leadership during a time of significant uncertainty and change. The club would like to place on record its sincere thanks to Henrik for his contribution and wishes him every success in the future. Sporting Director Simon Wilson said:
“First and foremost, I want to thank Henrik for his professionalism, commitment and contribution during an exceptionally challenging period for Sheffield Wednesday. We knew the start of this season would be difficult due to the scale of change across the club, but our expectation was always that we would develop as the season progressed, establishing a recognisable style of play and greater consistency in our performances Although we have accumulated points, we haven’t seen enough progress in those areas. We believe making a
change now gives us the best opportunity to establish those foundations and build towards the second half of the season and beyond. We remain ambitious about what we can achieve this campaign, and our focus remains on building a Sheffield Wednesday team with a clear identity, capable of delivering sustained improvement and long-term success.” Matt Hamshaw will take interim charge of the first team while the club undertakes the process of appointing its next Head Coach. The club will provide further updates when appropriate.
The change comes after Wednesday were beaten 2-0 by Doncaster Rovers on Saturday afternoon. Two goals from Rovers midfielder Owen Bailey inside the opening 16 minutes secured all three points for the hosts. Wednesday had the better of the second half, forcing goalkeeper Tommy Simkin into a series of saves, but they were unable to find a way back into the contest. Manager Henrik Pedersen made five changes to his starting line-up following Tuesday night’s 2-0 defeat to Notts County, bringing Liam Palmer, Max Lowe, Billy Mitchell, Kieran Morrison
and Ali Al-Hamadi into the team in place of Di’Shon Bernard, Reece James, Callum Slattery, Harry Gray and Jamal Lowe. Owen Bailey’s first-half double allowed the celebrations to start early as Rovers ended the South Yorkshire derby with a well deserved three points. Rovers put on a superb performance on home soil to claim a huge win over their local rivals, as well as a top defensive display and a number of spectacular Tommy Simkin saves earning a clean sheet. The hosts made five changes from the team that started against Stockport County midweek.
release from Eyestone to perfection and with Brook racing off his line, had the presence of mind to lift it over the keeper from a tough angle in front of the KCM Waste Management North Stand to make it 1-0. No sooner had the Millers fans finished chanting Mullin’s name before they were at it again – within two minutes to be precise. The Millers were rocked after 20 had been played though as Kian Spence was issued his marching orders following a strong challenge on Will Gray, which referee Mr. Oldham deemed was enough to brandish a red card. It was a busy afternoon for the referee, who had the unenviable job of adjudicating a game on a slick surface in
which tackles were flying in, the ball was skipping up against hands and the pace was quick. The home faithful made their desires for a penalty clear as a ball looked to strike an arm in the box, but in the conditions it was difficult to tell whether there was any intent and the claims were waved away. Crosses had proven key to the Shrewsbury armoury all afternoon and they would confirm why on an hour when they restored parity. A dangerous ball in from the left picked out the dart of Ruffels inside the six yard box, where he expertly steered his header home leaving Eyestone with no chance to prevent the scores from going to 2-2. Bruce’s men – despite the odds being stacked against them – refused to down tools and that paid dividends on 75 minutes.
A perfect set piece delivery from Fitzgerald on the right was met with equal quality by the head of Bradshaw, whose pinpoint contact left Brook sprawling as he watched it fly in to draw the Millers level at 3-3. It wasn’t just the scoreline that was level seven minutes from the end, either. A moment of madness from Shrews attacker McMahonBrown saw the red mist descend as he got involved in a melee and threw Joe Rafferty to the ground, which was spotted by Mr. Oldham, who reached for his top pocket for a second time. In the end, there would be nothing to separate two evenly-matched sides in a chaotic encounter in the South Yorkshire torrential rain.
millers share spoils Rotherham United added a home point to their Sky Bet League Two tally in an actionpacked 3-3 draw against Shrewsbury Town at AESSEAL New York Stadium. Six goals, a red card for either side and an energetic display from the two sides created a fantastic entertainment spectacle as the Millers shared the spoils with their Shropshire counterparts. They had a two-goal cushion in the first half through a quick double salvo from hitman Paul Mullin before the visitors pulled one back before the break, before which Kian Spence was dismissed. Gavin Cowan’s side used their man advantage to good effect as they recovered to 2-2 before taking the lead,

but the Millers didn’t let their hearts be broken as Tom Bradshaw headed home a leveller before Kian McMahon-Brown also saw red for a push on Joe Rafferty off the ball. While the weather over AESSEAL New York Stadium was bleak, the opening to the Sky Bet League Two fixture was significantly brighter with both goalkeepers called into action inside seven minutes. The early stages suggested we wouldn’t wait long for a goal and that proved to be true as the clock ticked to 16 minutes. It was Route One from a goalkeeper more familiar with Route 66 that paved the way for Mullin to find his first as he applied some real style to a ball over the top.
