D2N2 LEP joined by careers leaders to launch new Careers Hub
The South Derbyshire Careers Hub is one of four led by D2N2 Local Enterprise Partnership, in partnership with the Careers and Enterprise Company.
150 people attended a special event, held yesterday (30 November), at the D2N2 funded Museum of Making, to celebrate the launch of a new Careers Hub which will help young people in the area to thrive.
The South Derbyshire Careers Hub brings together school staff, particularly those who lead on careers education, and provides them with additional support, resources and training for their schools to deliver “modern, 21st century careers education for every child, no matter their background or circumstance.”
The Careers Hub also links the region’s 43 schools with employers, Further Education colleges and apprenticeship and in-work training providers, to make sure young people in the region know about the options available to them after they leave education, and the different jobs open to them.
Research carried out by The Careers & Enterprise Company shows that schools and colleges which are part of a Careers Hub deliver more support to students, have stronger links with local employers, offer more work experience opportunities and develop innovative ways of linking the curriculum with different jobs a student could go on to do.
Over the next year, D2N2 Careers Hubs will work with member schools to ensure each has a fit-for-purpose strategic careers plan, while delivering a range of experience events and programmes for young people to access, made possible by the backing of supporting employers.
D2N2 LEP has operated a Careers Hub in North Derbyshire since 2019 and the success of this led to funding being agreed by the Careers and Enterprise company for the creation of a further three hubs in the area. The scheme now covers all of the D2N2 region and supports over 92,000 young people from 150 secondary schools and colleges.
Will Morlidge, Interim Chief Executive, said: “I’m really excited to be here today to mark the launch of this initiative.
“Bringing the worlds of work and education together is a vital part of our strategy to lead a green recovery from the impact of Covid-19. It has been a real collaborative effort to bring these Careers Hubs to our region and we look forward to working with all our partners as we look to transform the careers landscape across the D2N2 area.”
Oli de Botton, the Chief Executive of The Careers & Enterprise Company, the national body for careers education in England, said: “It’s a pleasure to help launch the new South Derbyshire Careers Hub. Modern, 21st century careers education for every child, no matter their background or circumstance couldn’t be more important.
“Over the last few years schools and colleges across the country have been improving careers education, and helping more and more of their young people to take their best next step out of education and into the wider world.
“Careers Hubs play an incredibly important role in making this happen. They are helping businesses, schools, apprenticeship providers and colleges to collaborate and work together as effectively as possible. I want to say a huge congratulations to the team in South Derbyshire for setting their Careers Hub up, so it helps to improve the lives of young people in the area.”
Commenting on the launch of the South Derbyshire Careers Hub, Minister for Skills, Alex Burghart MP, said: “Careers Hubs ensure young people can see and know about the huge range of different jobs and career pathways on offer, and make decisions that work best for them and their futures.
“Good careers education is such a valuable asset, so it’s fantastic to see that the Careers Hub in South Derbyshire is launching, meaning more young people have the information they need to make the most of their talents.”
Caring Derbyshire housing trust manager wins national award for helping people into work
Leaders of a Derby housing trust are “over the moon” to see a caring staff member win national recognition for her work helping people going through tough situations get back on their feet.
Julie Howells, head of employability services at Derventio Housing Trust, won the Frontline Manager of the Year category of the Employment Related Services Association (ERSA) awards, one of only five people shortlisted including finalists from Blackpool Council and organisations based in Sussex.
The awards, which were held virtually on November 25, celebrated the unsung heroes who work to improve the lives of jobseekers, communities and the wider workforce across the UK.
Over 200 nominations were sent in from across the private, voluntary, social enterprise and public sectors. The Frontline Manager of the Year award was sponsored by Alderwood Recruitment, and an in-person ceremony is planned for January next year – Covid permitting.
Derventio Housing Trust is a Derbyshire organisation providing housing, support and specialist projects to people going through troubled times in their lives. Many face a range of problems including poor mental health, isolation from family, and issues with substance use.
As part of her role, Julie has set up four services with the aim of helping people get economically active again. One of these, Talent Match, has supported 222 young people.
She manages a team of fourteen people across three projects, and helps everyone fulfil their potential, whether it’s their first job or they have years of experience. In this team alone, Julie’s support has led to two people going on to become social workers.
People helped by Julie over the years, along with her team, paid tribute to her calm, unflappable attitude and unwavering support in helping them during difficult times in their lives.
Jackie Carpenter, assistant director of strategy at Derventio, said: “We are absolutely over the moon to see Julie’s hard work, dedication and amazing qualities justly rewarded. We have always known that she is a special lady and it’s nice that she has now won national recognition. There were hundreds of entries to these awards, so it’s quite an accolade. The other nominees were amazing too.
“Everyone is unstinting in their praise for Julie and the employability service that she set up and runs. The best thing I ever did for Derventio was to ask Julie to come and join us. The work she does is nothing short of remarkable.”
Julie, who works from Derventio’s office in Ilkeston, said she enjoyed the satisfaction of seeing someone coming from a low ebb to being economically active again and said her nomination was all down to the hard work of her team.
One of the many people she has helped over the years is Stephen Fletcher, of Riddings. Facing homelessness because he struggled with the paperwork to get himself a new place to live, Stephen credits Julie with helping him turn his life around.
As soon as he was referred to Derventio, Julie took Stephen under her wing. Her support included getting him a bank account, hiring a removal firm, sorting housing benefit, registering him for council tax and utilities, and even helping furnish his new home.
Julie said she was “blown away” to have won the award. She said: “I’m overwhelmed, but without my team nothing would be possible. They make me proud every single day.
“Working with people in my role is brilliant. Seeing what they go on to achieve is something that hits you every single time because everybody’s story is completely different and when you’re working with people and going with them step by step through that journey, watching them going through it – there isn’t really another feeling like it. I want to say a big thank you to all the participants for their hard work.
“You know that people have got the ability, and they can do it. They just need that person behind them believing in them.”
Julie added that role had become particularly important during the Covid pandemic, which created further barriers for many people trying to get back on their feet and praised all the support she gets from senior management at Derventio.
Jackie added: “Everyone in the team says that without Julie’s support, encouraging them, problem solving, and making everyone feel part of a great team they couldn’t achieve their amazing results, like Nick who set up his own drystone walling business, Amber who did an apprenticeship, and Simon who got work for nine hours a week which was increased to a full-time job.
“Time and time again she has proven her commitment to participants by stepping in to provide hands-on support. We are immensely proud of Julie and all that she does. She richly deserves this fantastic national recognition for her great work.
“If you know anyone who would benefit from award-winning support from Julie and her team to get into – or nearer to – paid work, apprenticeships, training, you can contact Julie on 07985 555067.”
Established in Derby in 2010, Derventio Housing Trust currently manages 600 bed spaces of accommodation for single homeless people, working strategically with partners including local authorities and not-for-profit organisations.
It helps more than 1,100 people each year by offering housing, support and specialist projects in order that they improve their health and wellbeing, increase resilience and prepare for independent living, learning and employment.

Mansfield BID appoints new CEO
Former Army major Jay Rowlinson has been recruited to become the next CEO of Mansfield Business Improvement District (BID).
He will take up the post in early January next year, after leaving his current role of Team Leader within the Specialist Operations Training Team, East Midlands Police.
Paul Williams, a director at the BID said: “Jay joins at a very exciting time for the BID and for Mansfield, as significant change is coming to the town through funding being made available via the Levelling Up programme, and the Town and High Street initiatives.
“Jay will be representing the town centre businesses, retail, hospitality and leisure industries to ensure they have an input and significant voice in how that money will be spent.”
Paul added: “While, of course, we look forward to benefiting from Jay’s strategic thinking and planning, we know that it will be his positive attitude and tireless energy that will make so much difference.”
In his current very busy and demanding role, Jay is required to collaborate with three regional police forces, including Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and Lincolnshire, as he provides operational capability to Specialist Policing teams across the region.
Prior to working for the police, Jay spent 32 years in the Armed Forces, serving on many operational deployments around the world.

He has been recognised on the operational honours lists for his work and dedication to duty whilst serving in Afghanistan.
Jay said: “I love being able to initiate making positive changes and being part of a team that builds and brings success.
“The position of CEO at the BID is such an interesting, challenging and very worthwhile job that will give me the opportunity to work with key partners and stakeholders to bring worthwhile and meaningful change to Mansfield town centre.
“I am very aware of the current difficulties that town centre businesses are going through at the moment with a huge increase in online shopping, day-to-day business costs and the ongoing challenges that the COVID 19 pandemic has brought.
“It will be my aim to effectively talk and actively listen to our town centre businesses and ensure I have a thorough understanding of how the BID can help them, but also how I can best represent their future needs and business interests.”
Jay is married to Tanya, his wife of 25 years, and has two teenage children. A very keen sportsman, he keeps himself fit by taking part in triathlons and running.
HS2 embraces off-site manufacturing for first three ‘pre-fab’ green tunnels
HS2 today confirmed that Derbyshire-based Stanton Precast Ltd, has been awarded a major contract to deliver three innovative ‘green tunnels’ for the high-speed rail project in a move that is set to create up to 100 local jobs.
Four miles worth of tunnel will be built in thousands of sections at the Ilkeston factory before being shipped to site and assembled at three locations in rural Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire, to reduce disruption and improve efficiency.
The first green tunnel will stretch for one-and-a-half miles (2.5km) past the village of Chipping Warden in Northamptonshire with assembly due to begin on site early next year. Once complete, the structures will be covered with earth and landscaped to blend in with the surrounding countryside.
For the Chipping Warden tunnel more than 5,020 individual tunnel segments will be produced by Stanton as part of the contract awarded by HS2’s main works contractor, EKFB – a team made up of Eiffage, Kier, Ferrovial and BAM Nuttall. They will work with specialist engineers Matière who have been appointed to install the tunnel segments on site.
The contract win is a major boost for Stanton Precast Ltd, which employs around 180 people at their Ilkeston factory and has enabled the firm to increase their workforce by around 50%. New production sheds, casting and storage areas are also being built at the factory to accommodate the new work. In total Stanton will produce more than 13,290 tunnel segments to form the three green tunnels.
HS2 Ltd’s Project Client Rohan Perin, said:“Our green tunnels are a great example of what we’re doing to blend the new railway into the landscape and protect communities living close to the line. But it is also a major boost for Stanton Precast and their supply chain, showing how HS2 is creating jobs and opportunities across the UK right now.”
EKFB Director Peter Bimson, said:“This is an exciting opportunity for all involved to demonstrate engineering excellence and leave a legacy that improves people’s lives. The Chipping Warden ‘Green Tunnel’ is a demonstrable feat. It combines a myriad of innovative techniques, from promoting safety by taking the construction process off site to delivering an end-product that will benefit the surrounding environment.
“This off-site manufacturing is the result of the collaboration between some exceptional teams, using international engineering expertise.”
Stanton Precast Ltd’s, Managing Director, Colin Richardson, said:“We are extremely pleased to be involved in this major project and with the opportunities it delivers for both us and those in our immediate supply chain. Having targeted the HS2 project over 4 years ago as an opportunity to not only grow our business but also provide a legacy for future manufacturing in the East Midlands, this contract delivers on both and is the culmination of a lot of hard work”
Designed as a double arch, the tunnel will have two separate halves for southbound and northbound trains. Five different concrete precast segments will be slotted together to achieve the double arch – one central pier, two side walls and two roof slabs. Each one will be steel reinforced, with the largest weighing up to 43 tonnes.
The Chipping Warden tunnel will be built in sections, with construction expected to be fully complete in 2024. A relief road has also recently been completed, which will take HS2 vehicles – and other local traffic – away from the centre of the village.
The Chipping Warden tunnel will be followed by two similar structures at Wendover in Buckinghamshire and Greatworth in Northamptonshire. All of the tunnels will have specially designed ‘porous portals’ at either end to reduce the noise of trains exiting the tunnel.

Energy Save System has developed technology for energy savings in industrial air filtration processes and the company’s product DESA is addressed to businesses who want to improve their air quality and decrease their environmental impact in industrial operations, for example in the wood, plastic, metalworking, food processing, pharmaceutical, welding and casting industries.
Through the acquisition, Nederman develops their offering within the environmental and climate area for both existing and new installations.
Energy Save System will be part of Nederman’s Monitoring & Control Technology Division.
“Through the acquisition we continue to develop our position as a world leading environmental technology company within industrial air filtration and further improve our product offering by meeting the market’s increased need for smart energy saving solutions,” says Sven Kristensson, CEO Nederman Group.
Director of electrical installation company banned for 5 years
The Nottingham-based director of an electrical installation company has been banned for 5 years after an over £100,000 VAT tax bill went unpaid.
Stuart Palethorpe was the sole director of On Form Electrical Ltd, which traded from early 2015 until November 2018.
HMRC petitioned to wind-up the business in 2018 due to outstanding VAT arrears, and the Official Receiver appointed as liquidator.
The subsequent investigation by the Insolvency Service found that for the last three years of trading, Palethorpe had failed to ensure that his business paid VAT returns.
At the point of liquidation in December 2018, On Form owed the public purse £102,417 in unpaid VAT.
However, because Palethorpe failed to maintain adequate accounting records, it is possible the business owed an even higher amount. The lack of records also prevented the Official Receiver from determining whether money disbursed from the business’s bank accounts was used for legitimate business expenditure.
As a result, the High Court gave Stuart Palethorpe a 5-year disqualification order, beginning on 30 November 2021.
The disqualification order prevents Palethorpe from directly or indirectly becoming involved in the promotion, formation or management of a company without the permission of the court.
Dave Elliot, chief investigator for the Insolvency Service, said: “Directors must ensure their companies pay the correct taxes but enquiries proved that Mr Palethorpe failed to do so while he ran the company.
“The electrician’s ban should serve as a warning to directors that if you fail to fulfil your obligations and seek to gain an unfair advantage over competitors, by failing to properly account and pay for your tax, you could lose the protection of limited liability.”
University of Nottingham spin-out company named best medtech start-up
University of Nottingham spin-out company Cerca Magnetics was named best start-up medtech company at the annual OBN awards.
Cerca Magnetics received the award in recognition of their achievements developing and bringing to market the first commercial, wearable brain MEG device.
The wearable brain imaging system was developed by researchers at the University of Nottingham and since the formation of Cerca Magnetics 14 months ago has already been installed at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in Toronto for ground-breaking research into autism, and Young Epilepsy’s diagnostic suite where it is being used to improve how the condition is diagnosed and treated.
The prestigious awards, now in their 13th year, shine a light on companies at all stages of development, recognising inspirational leadership, exciting innovation, novel and exciting approaches to unmet clinical need, outstanding company progression and the delivery of real-life tangible results.
David Woolger CEO of Cerca said: “We’re delighted to have been awarded best start-up. Since we formed the company, we have had so much interest in this system and are delighted to already be working with Sick Kids and Young Epilepsy to improve the lives of children with brain disorders.”
This wearable brain imaging system is the result of years of research by scientists at the University of Nottingham who recognised the need for an alternative to the conventional MEG scanners that are very expensive, cumbersome, and rely on cryogenic sensors which are not viable for use in infants, and require patients to stay extremely still.
The new wearable system is based upon recently developed “quantum” sensors which use the fundamental properties of atoms to sense local magnetic fields. These new sensors, called optically pumped magnetometers or OPMs, do not require cryogenic cooling. They are also extremely small and lightweight (similar to a Lego brick). This means they can be mounted in a helmet which the patient wears. The helmet can adapt to any head shape or size, and because it is lightweight and moves with the head, it is completely motion robust, making this ideal for children and young people.
Dr Elena Boto, Chief Scientist at Cerca Magnetics said: “It’s incredible to see how far the technology has come since our initial experiments in the lab five years ago. Seeing the system commercialised and installed to help children with neurological problems like autism and epilepsy is amazing and we are looking forward to developing and rolling the system out even further in 2022.” The University of Nottingham announces launch of a new £12m research centre for inclusive trade policy
A major new research centre on inclusive trade policy is to launch in early 2022. The Centre for Inclusive Trade Policy aims to be a centre of excellence for innovative trade policy research.
The UK has experienced a huge change in trade policy. Having left the EU, it is in the process of devising its own trade policy, one that will shape economic and welfare outcomes in all corners of the United Kingdom for generations.
At the same time, international trade is changing rapidly and becoming more complex with the world trading system facing major challenges such as COVID-19, trade wars, disruptive digital technology and climate change. Formulating an effective trade policy that delivers something for all parts of society in such circumstances requires an evidence-based interdisciplinary approach, which the Centre aims to provide.
The Centre for Inclusive Trade Policy, the first centre dedicated to trade policy to be funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), is built on the precept that trade policy should be inclusive in both policy formulation and outcome and focuses on four dimensions of inclusiveness: geography, political domains, society and generations. In addition, the Centre itself is inclusive with researchers in all four UK nations, in five disciplines and at all stages of their careers, and with a commitment to hear the voices of all parts of UK society.
In addition to the University of Nottingham, the Centre brings together researchers from all four UK nations – including from the University of Sussex, the University of Strathclyde, Queen’s University Belfast, Cardiff University and the University of Cambridge – and several overseas universities to create the UK’s first interdisciplinary research centre in international trade. The team comprises scholars from economics, law, business management, politics and international relations.
Led by Professors L. Alan Winters and Michael Gasiorek at the University of Sussex Business School with Professor Giovanni Facchini of the University of Nottingham as deputy director, the Centre is supported by an £8 million grant from the ESRC and by funding from its contributing universities. It is one of six new national centres funded by the ESRC designed to tackle urgent social and economic issues and provide robust research evidence to support government decision making.
The team based at the University of Nottingham, led by Professor Giovanni Facchini, includes Professor Facundo Albornoz, Dr Alejandro Graziano, Professor Giammario Impullitti, Professor Richard Kneller, Professor Andres Rodriguez Clare, Professor Cecilia Testa, Dr Yuan Tian and Dr Zhihong Yu. Researchers will work on a range of questions, such as: the long-term, general equilibrium effects of trade on the UK economy, the impact of multinational production on climate change, and the effectiveness of trade adjustment assistance programs on public support for trade liberalisation.
Professor Winters, Professor of Economics at the University of Sussex Business School, said: “International trade accounts for nearly a third of UK output and a third of what it consumes. Our research suggests that perhaps 6.5 million jobs are linked directly or indirectly to exporting. The country needs a ‘go-to’ location, both intellectually and for policy formulation. By bringing a diverse group of excellent researchers together, the Centre for Inclusive Trade Policy aims to equip the UK with the capability to formulate and implement a trade policy tailored to the needs of the whole of the UK.”
In addition to the universities, the Centre will work with nine partners including Ernst & Young LLP (EY), Fieldfisher LLP, the International Trade Group of the Professional and Business Services Council, the British Chambers of Commerce, the Trade Justice Movement and trade officials in all four UK administrations. It will undertake consultation and societal deliberation via citizen’s juries, to ensure that its programme is relevant to the needs of UK business, society and policymakers.
In particular, the Centre’s objectives include:
• Conduct frontier disciplinary and interdisciplinary research into international trade and policy
• Create a critical mass of expertise by integrating excellent scholars from several disciplines and all parts of the UK
• Create a body of data and innovative methods
• Apply research skills to pressing practical trade problems, including some identified by a broad societal consultation (citizens’ juries) among stakeholders and the public.
• Work extensively to inform public debate, so that the relevance of trade to economic management is clear and the trade-offs that it inevitably entails are more widely appreciated.
• Engage with a wide range of policymakers and stakeholders.
• Create a legacy in terms of a permanent wide-spread capacity to conduct first-rate research, analysis and policy-making practices in international trade in UK academia, officialdom and business.
The Centre will also run a competition for funds for early and mid-career researchers who are not part of the Centre team but who offer innovative proposals within international trade policy. This is a key part of the Centre’s plan to build long-term capacity for trade policy development and analysis.
Professor Gasiorek, Centre co-director and Professor of Economics at the University of Sussex, said: “Our aim is to help to equip the UK with an effective and equitable trade policy. The Centre will build permanent capacity by developing a community of scholars and practitioners with the knowledge, skills and mutual understanding to develop robust trade policy in a changing world. Its work will benefit the whole of UK society, enhancing environmental sustainability and social equity.”
“The new Centre fits perfectly into our strategic plans, exemplifying research with impact in making research accessible in order to solve the grand issues of our time, and building on strengths in enhancing and building upon Sussex’s long-held reputation for specialism and expertise in international trade.”
The centre includes researchers from:
University of Sussex
University of Nottingham
University of Strathclyde
Queen’s University Belfast
Cardiff University
University of Cambridge
European University Institute
Georgetown University
Tel Aviv University
University of California, Berkeley
