A County Councillor representing Long Eaton South has publicly condemned planned cuts to adult education services by the party she is a member and representative of.

A derelict Derbyshire pub has become a hotbed of anti-social behaviour and crime and residents want it demolished but neither the owner or council will bulldoze it.

The potential closure of adult training centres across Derbyshire could “strangle communities” and “hamper growth”, it is feared.

Residents in a part of Erewash have been urged not to mow public spaces after a Reform councillor cut the grass on an overgrown roundabout without permission.

Erewash MP Adam Thompson has challenged the Deputy Prime Minister about what he described as "the appalling state of maths education in England" and in doing so, took the opportunity to poke fun at Reform UK leader Nigel Farage.

The oldest man in Britain, Donald Rose got to meet the country’s youngest mayor – as the 110-year-old was awarded the Freedom of the Borough of Erewash for his bravery in World War Two.

Erewash Sound, which is run on a non-profit making basis, has been granted permission to continue broadcasting on FM until 2030.

Both MPs elected to seats covering the Erewash borough in the July 4th General Election have, along with a number of other Derbyshire MPs, co-signed a letter to the County Council Leader to protest and appeal against plans to close care homes and day centres.

A new report has revealed that a £2.8m boost for Erewash clinched by the borough council from central government is putting the borough on the map as it improves the lives of residents.
