The new Northern Premier League season gets underway on 14th August, with Ilkeston travelling to Stamford in the opening match of what is hoped to be a 38-game season.

The Women in Utilities success programme initially offered free places to eight female candidates keen to progress in this traditionally male-dominated industry.

Have you ever been part of a group that is looking to organise a night of entertainment, but everyone is stuck for ideas? It’s often the case in this scenario that you end up doing the same old activities. However, thanks to the innovation of local businesses, casino-themed nights have become a popular unique idea for organised entertainment.
We all deserve fun in our busy lives, and few activities on this path can measure up as well as parties. The only downside of this is that with so many choices, narrowing down what you want can be complicated and time-consuming. Focussing on the idea of a casino theme, we want to explore one small slice of what is possible, for your next celebration or get-together.
