Ultimate Thunder: Music Industry Rallies To Help Leeds Rock Band
A rock band predominantly made up of people with learning disabilities say they face an uncertain future after funding came to an end.
Ultimate Thunder, from Leeds, will soon release their second album, which was supported by Arts Council England.
Members say they may have unknowingly played their final concert on Saturday after learning a series of grant bids were unsuccessful.
A crowdfunding campaign was set up and aims to help the band carry on.
Backers include Tim Burgess from the Charlatans, Leeds band Yard Act and the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, where the band played last weekend.
“The news came through on Saturday just after the gig, so we’ve only got one more rehearsal together booked,” said band producer James Mabbett.
“It’s going to be tough, it’s these guys’ lives – they live for making music and getting together.”
A community interest company has been set up to support Ultimate Thunder and work with other artists who face “barriers to making music in the traditional industry”, Mr Mabbett said.
“It’s not like a regular band, there’s a lot more organisation and people involved – it takes more time and it’s more expensive to run.”

Ultimate Thunder are described as “The Fall meets Hawkwind”
The online fund has raised more than £5,000, with more than 260 supporters.
The Leeds charity Pyramid, which has supported members of the band since they formed, thanked those who had donated.
“We want to do everything we can to continue to support them,” charity director James Hill said.
“As a charity we put in a lot of funding bids all of the time, some of which would have meant we could have carried on in supporting this – and those haven’t been successful.”
Discussing the two albums the band have recorded, Mr Hill said: “They are ground-breaking, amazing records that are getting airplay all over the world.”
Mr Mabbett said: “It’s their outlet, it’s how they express themselves and they have this incredible rapport when they get together and it’s amazing to watch.
“When they’re playing it’s like nothing else exists, it’s magical really.”

Relief As Cafe Which Employs Staff With Autism Saved
A cafe which employs people with autism and learning disabilities has been saved from closure after thousands of pounds were raised by the public.
Sea Change in South Shields had faced a 400% increase in energy payments and received a £20,000 backdated energy bill.
After the BBC contacted its energy provider Octopus, the debt was waived as a “gesture of goodwill”.
Employees said they were “blown away by the support”, while owner Sarah Farrell-Forster said it meant the cafe could stay open.
A online campaign to save the cafe, set up on 3 February, has seen more than £15,000 raised by at least 400 people.
The cafe, which opened in 2019, had seen its energy bills hiked from about £300 to £1,100 a month. The cost of many ingredients had also doubled.
‘Overwhelmed’
Ms Farrell-Forster, from Sunderland, said it was “unbelievable” that people as far as Aberdeen, in Scotland, and Suffolk, in East England, had donated.
“We were so overwhelmed and grateful. It’s amazing, we had £10,000 raised in less than 24 hours,” she told BBC Look North.
Octopus said it had acted “extremely quickly” and had worked with the cafe to “resolve this situation” once it had been made aware of the cafe’s dilemma.
Ms Farrell-Forster said: “I can’t believe it, that’s unbelievable and [will] make things a lot better, easier for us… we can stay open.”
She said money raised from the campaign would go towards the increased monthly energy costs, and be reinvested to provide further employment and training opportunities for those with disabilities.
Nicole Youngman, who has been working at Sea Change for more than four years, said she was “relieved” and thankful to those who had raised money.
She said: “I am gobsmacked, is the honest answer, because I’ll not lose my job now, I’m just really pleased.”
Jayne Hughes had worked at several previous employers, but said she felt most supported at the cafe after receiving a job offer in November.
She said: “This is really important, it gives people a safe space and employment and their needs are met and they’re respected.
“This [the fundraiser] just shows how supportive everybody has been and we really did need it, and it’s given us that confidence.”

get authority to understand the importance of adequate care provision for young adult
Around the United Kingdom there are many people with long term disabilities that rely on respite provides to allow them to still live in their family home where they feel comfortable but over the last few years, they have closed many respite provisions and now the ones that are available are over subscribed because the government wants to safe money leading to young people like myself living with cerebral palsy and complex support needs unable to go to their local respite services because they do not assist us anymore in the community, and expect us to just sit in from of the TV 24hr a day. hence people like me need to raise fund to enable us to access out of county respite services due to local authority not willing to fund out of county respite as they say they have just a unit for the entire county and they expect you to go to.

Woman Hit By Two Tube Trains Takes TfL To High Court
A woman who lost an arm and leg after being run over by two Tube trains has issued a legal claim at the High Court against Transport for London (TfL).
Sarah de Lagarde was travelling home from work on 30 September 2022 when she fell on to the track at High Barnet.
She was run over by the train she had been travelling on as it left the station and then by a second train.
TfL’s Nick Dent said his thoughts were with Ms de Lagarde following the “devastating incident”.
Ms de Lagarde, who is from Camden, north London, said she slipped on a wet and uneven platform.
She had to have her right arm and right leg amputated as a result of her injuries.
She has since been fitted with a prosthetic leg and an arm that uses AI technology.
Ms de Lagarde was on the tracks undetected by staff for 15 minutes, despite her screams for help, due to a series of safety failings by TfL, her legal claim states.
The claim questions whether TfL breached its own safety procedures and whether those procedures are fit for purpose.
‘People at risk’
Ms de Lagarde said: “This incident has left me with devastating injuries which affect every aspect of my life, yet TfL continues to deny any responsibility or address the serious safety concerns that have been raised.
“What happened to me could have happened to anyone and, since my accident, I have been contacted by many people with safety fears or who have experienced near misses on the Tube network.
“I believe TfL is putting millions of people at risk every day.
“It is vital that it learns lessons from my case to make a safer network for everyone and stop incidents like this happening again.”
‘Inappropriate’
She said that the mayor of London’s office turned down her requests for a meeting with Sadiq Khan, despite an intervention from Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.
Mr Khan is chairman of the TfL board.
She said: “My local MP, Keir Starmer, asked Sadiq Khan to meet me to discuss the wider safety issues that my case raises and whether any lessons can be learned.
“Sadiq Khan’s office turned my requests down. They felt a meeting was inappropriate.”
A spokesperson for Mr Khan said: “The mayor’s thoughts remain with Sarah and her loved ones. He has asked to be kept updated and is very keen to meet with Sarah once the claim is resolved.”
Mr Dent, director of customer operations at London Underground, said: “TfL is responding to a legal claim which has been brought by solicitors on behalf of Sarah De Lagarde and I am not in a position to comment publicly further.
“However, our thoughts continue to be with Sarah and her family following the devastating incident at High Barnet station and we have offered her direct support through the Sarah Hope Line.
“Safety is our top priority and we continue to take every possible measure to learn from any incident and put in place appropriate improvements.”
An investigation into Ms de Lagarde’s accident was carried out by TfL and the Rail Accident Investigation Branch was notified, but concluded no further investigation was necessary.
Law firm Leigh Day issued the claim against TfL at the High Court on Ms de Lagarde’s behalf.

Derby County Forum Discusses Disabled Access To Football Grounds
Derby County have hosted a forum for disabled supporters to discuss ways of making football stadiums more accessible.
About 50 delegates from football clubs around the Midlands attended the event at Pride Park Stadium on Monday.
The forum was organised by the charity Level Playing Field, which works to improve disabled access and facilities at sporting venues.
A campaigner at the event said he doubted the fight would ever end.
Earlier this season, Derby County fan Alex Steward described the problems she had encountered while trying to follow the Rams at away games in League One as a wheelchair user.
Issues included badly obstructed views and poor access to toilets.
Gary Dempsey, chairman of the Derby County Disabled Supporters’ Club, spoke at the regional conference on the issue.
He said: “I don’t think there will be an end [to the campaign]. We will always be fighting, always trying to catch up.
“The end goal is that people with disabilities can come to a football match and enjoy it in the same way that everyone else enjoys it.
“Unfortunately there are barriers that need to be removed and we need to constantly keep on fighting those barriers, but whether it ever will end I really don’t know.”
The group recently donated £6,000 to buy headsets so blind and visually impaired fans visiting Pride Park – including away supporters – could access an extra descriptive audio commentary provided by the club.
The service is used at many grounds by football fan Charlie Beeston, a University of Nottingham student and chairman of the new Lincoln City Disabled Supporters’ Association, who is registered blind.
He said: “Enhanced audio commentaries are an absolute game-changer. You can always attend football matches and enjoy the atmosphere, but when you are able to fully understand what’s going on you can have those conversations at the pub after the match and talk about what’s happened.”
Tony Taylor, chair of Level Playing Field said: “What we’re trying to get away from is the idea that there are minimum standards that we expect for disabled people. We want to go above and beyond that.
“Anyone who is non-disabled will expect the very best, and disabled fans have every right to do that too and let’s not forget that one in four of the population are in one way or another associated with someone with a disability.”
Later this month the charity will stage its annual “Unite for Access” campaign to highlight what it believes is needed to make the matchday experience memorable for disabled fans for what happens on the pitch rather than off it.
