Is old Fritch resigning or what?

Brilliant idea!

It’s this for special needs kids or something? I feel like every kid can memorize their parents phone number

Great niche story! Thank you Presenters!

Absolutely brilliant 👍😊

Great video, thanks for putting this together.

2nd of november is my birthday

On that same day Jackson snitched on me for calling ms Anderson a dumbass

Best thing to do when applying for AA, is to contact Age Concern, here’s why. I am 67 years old and in receipt of the FULL Pension, I initially wanted my claims form checking, which they did. However after going through my claim forms, I was informed that should I get the award, I would then be able to claim Pension credit, due to the fact that the amount the government says I need to live on goes up because I have been awarded AA.So assuming I pass the criteria for AA, I would in fact be getting my full pension of £884 per month, £288 per month AA, and then because I need Pension credit I would then be entitled to another £78 per week, or £316 per month. So get your claim form filled out by Age Concern or at least get them to check your form, take advice from them, because then your on their system, and help can be made then for claiming Pension credits, just get them to run your details through the app they provide. Upon receipt of getting my form the DHSS emailed me and stated it could take up to 3 months. Still worth the wait as your monies due are backdated to when you made your claim. Hope this gives you a little more information to help you claim your full entitlements.

Such beautiful remembrance observations the remembrance day service in Old Bolsover was beautiful and the memorial looks stunning you did the fallen heroes and those still actively serving proud thank you 🙏

Really enjoyed this week's news 👍

❤

I can’t wait to sample the food at the new restaurant. It looks like it is going to be a fantastic venue

The Castle Arms is looking fab! May I ask if it will have a dog friendly area? Bolsover is well known for loving it's dogs and it would be a great addition

A shame the charity of choice was not in Bolsover.

Please keep these videos coming, they’re great 👍 I live over the border in Alfreton and don’t think Amber Valley have the creativity or community spirit that you guys have 👍well done, wish we could move Alfreton into Bolsover District 😊

My Grandad worked at that Pit, always thought Normo should have something to do with the Pits.. When Mcarther Glen was open they did have a plaque up but was removed.. But weldone Guys for doing something about the Village history..

It's my scool 😮

Hello there, hopefully you will read this. We relocated from Birmingham a couple of years ago to Bolsover because of it's sleepy town feeling. It is so friendly and welcoming not to mention clean, tidy and extremely pretty. We hope and pray that Bolsover Town does not change too much and too many houses (unless for local people, it should be like Cornwall where locals are put first) Bolsover should be treated with the care and respect it deserves. Please do not change it too much as we know from first hand experience what happens when somewhere is not respected by new arrivals. We keep saying that if Bolsover changes too much we will move again somewhere quiet like Bolsover is now.

So what your saying is Richard Branson could claim no way even though he pays millions in tax

Just like to ask a question. If you have had more problems since receiving attendance allowance,is it possible to go over to the PIP

I made an application, it was refused, Ive suffered with PTSD and Bi - polar for most of my life, and although they say a claimant can make an application if they suffer with a physical or mental health condition, DWP still dismissed my claim, I have objected and a tribunal is now the next stage, has anyone any tips for when I attend the tribunal as its a bit daunting.

I live just over the border in Alfreton and videos like this make me wish we were in Bolsover District rather than Amber Valley. There is a definite community spirit throughout your district, we have friends in Pinxton and Normo and they tell us the same. Your channel needs promoting to get the full support of your district 👍

Simple little video, makes me want to go and visit this market 👍

Absolutely brilliant, not walked down the trail since Covid, I will defo go and visit these, lovely video 👍

What a great community spirit, we need more happy stories and people going that extra mile to spread happiness, this video deserves to go viral 👍

What the

I’ve just spent just over three weeks in hospital from a serious stroke, on release told, you’ll receive visits from health care workers and also care in the community So far I’ve seen no one. Unfortunately i live in Scotland,maybe that is the problem .

Never go alone to the assessment

Attendance Allowance is easily abused and those issuing it are unconcerned about the scams that are being done on a regular basis. I know an elderly couple who BOTH claim it yet just the two of them live together. So how can a person 'needing' someone to help them around the house etc also be the person who is 'helping' another person likewise.

Surely this is a spoof?

As usual the council via Mr Fritcley has taken it upon themselves to 'distribute' the monies that were granted to Bolsover town and in their wisdom decided to spread it across wider areas when it was originally just for Bolsover town 🤬 and it beggars belief that the council grants leases to the businesses that we have in the town. It is utter madness that we have 12 hairdressers and barbers! And two pizza places. How can the council expect people to come and visit the area if there is nothing here for them? The council talks about a 'cafe' culture for the town but this will never happen because of their ludicrous ideas of allowing unsuitable businesses in the town. Also the shop frontages should have a uniformed look in keeping with the areas status and all shop signage should be in the same fonts and colours to make the village look appealing. I only hope and pray that when the old Co Op is demolished that they will replace it with a building that is in keeping with the area and not some modern structure although I don't hold out much hope. Bolsover deserves to be treated with respect and the people of the area should have shops and businesses that we actually need.

I hope so been living here for 38 years now I’ve never seen the town look so miserable and unkept. Fingers crossed bringing boza back to it’s prime

When i heard about Attendance Allowance i told my doctor i wanted to claim that benefit. My doctor put me in touch with. AGE UK who came out and interviewed me . They filled out the claim forms. I would never be able to wade through 30 pages of questions without making a mistake so i was happy about that.a few weeks later i got a letter telling me i was succesfull at the higher rate and how much back money had been paid into my account . So if your put off claiming phone AGE UK and speak to someone they can change your life.. also my older brother who is 82 and ex air force with numerous pensions and around £80 k in savings and investments put a claim in and it was approved also .

When I retired with health problems after 35 years of self employment I was required to have a home visit from DWP to ‘prove’ that I had in fact ceased to work. The very pleasant official handed me, unbidden, a claim form for AA telling me that the DWP ‘wanted me to claim’ as the benefit was ‘cost effective’ for the government. I filled in the form(30pages!) and about 2 months later I got a letter telling me I was entitled to the higher rate. During the 2 month wait I visited my GP on an unrelated matter and he told me that DWP had asked for my medical records, so they’re careful how taxpayers’ money is spent, and rightly so. My wife gets carer’s allowance of around £80 on top of that as a result of my AA award. It costs nothing to make the claim and it was very worthwhile in my case.

It is really annoying that the money is being spent on other areas of Bolsover rather than being targeted on just Bolsover town centre as it was originally meant to be. Steve Fritchley should have ensured that all the monies allocated were spent on Bolsover town and not gone back on his word as seems to be the wont of Bolsover Council. The other thing that annoys me is how the Council allows businesses to set up without any real thought to what we really need for example how many hairdressers and barbers does one area need??? 12 at the last count. Seriously??? Where are the shops that we need like shoe shops pet shop and other amenities that we as a town actually need? It is absolutely ridiculous. The council talks about turning Bolsover into a travel destination with a 'cafe' culture to rival places like Matlock and Bakewell but how do they really expect any visitors to spend money and appreciate Bolsover town if there is nothing here except hairdressers and take away outlets? Why did we need another pizza company?Another thing that the council seriously needs to think carefully about is things like cohesive shop front signs that all blend together to give a standardised impression and help the town to look presentable and in keeping with its heritage status. I only hope and pray that when they rebuild after demolishing the Co-Op building that they think about a design of building that blends in with the aesthetics of the town and not some ugly eyesore that sticks out like a sore thumb. Bolsover deserves to be treated with respect and careful consideration.

It’s a crying shame all corners of the District couldn’t submit proposals and ideas on how the money could be allocated. Nice of Pinxton to get a community centre, but what other Parishes could use new buildings? Where is their money?

What a beautiful work of art. Splendid work all around. Thanks for posting.

Bull shit

Probably not a great idea to include a quote from Steve Fritchley, a man suspended by his party following allegations of repeated use of homophonic slurs.

Too many immigrants running Attendence Allowance

I tried to claim AA. PROFOUNDLY Deaf. Also many other health conditions.

My husband has copd 48% capacity peripheral neuropathy and asthma he struggles to walk very far has to sit down , his application was rejected .

Thank you Mike for your professionalism as I needed new carpet fitted in my house in Shirebrook and you helped me to arrange the measurements and helped me with the choices and you have delivered the fittings in time. The house looks immaculate. I can recommend anyone here. Serge.
