Doncaster Free Press Daily Bulletin with Stephanie Bateman - Tuesday, October 31, 2023

Transcript

00:00 It's Steph at the Doncaster Free Press and it's Tuesday, October 31st.

00:04 Just bringing you some of our headlines today.

00:07 First off, we have a story that I sent out late yesterday.

00:10 It's a police appeal for a man they're wanting in connection with an incident that happened

00:15 in Stainforth.

00:16 A robber beat the occupant of a house before making off with two safes from the property.

00:23 Police are advising that you do not approach him and contact him if you do see him.

00:28 There's a picture online and also some details so you can read about that now.

00:33 Then we have a piece that's been put together by our sports reporter, Steve.

00:38 There are some concerns by local sporting clubs after they've been told they can't use

00:45 the Dome sports complex for their get-togethers, their meetings, as there's a long exhibition

00:52 taking place at the venue.

00:54 So some of them are struggling to find venues where they can meet up.

00:58 They're not very happy but we've spoken to them, we've spoken to the Dome and the people

01:03 that run the Dome.

01:04 Steve's got a really good story there for you to read.

01:07 Also, you can make comments on it like you can all our stories.

01:12 Then finally, I'm going to be putting out a piece later today about the future of Victoria

01:17 Plum, the Doncaster business.

01:20 We were approached by a couple of members of staff concerned about the future of the

01:25 business.

01:26 They were bought out not so long back and people were told that it would be business

01:32 as usual but we've since gone to Victoria Plum after some concerns and they've confirmed

01:38 that they're going to be streamlining their business and that means there's a redundancy

01:42 consultation taking place.

01:45 They're looking at getting rid of up to 100 members of staff.

01:48 So that's devastating news as we look to Christmas for those families but you can read all about

01:52 that.

01:53 Like I say, it's going to be coming online later today.

01:56 So for those three stories and for anything else that's happening in the city today, just

02:00 visit www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk and have a happy Halloween.
