This week I reported from Sheffield Crown Court on the sentencing of a driver who killed a 16-year-old boy in Sheffield when he mounted the pavement and hit him with his car. Abdullah Yaser Abdullah Taleb died when he was struck by an Audi driven by Zulkernain Ahmed in Sheffield a year ago.
The month after his death, I interviewed Abduallah's heart-broken and dignified family.
I covered the shooting to death of an innocent bystander on West Street in Sheffield this week.
I had a really enjoyable trip to the first nature reserve in the world...in Wakefield! Two hundred years ago the environmentalist Charles Waterton created a nature reserve in the grounds of his home at Walton Hall. Waterton was instrumental in protecting wildlife, in particular providing habitats for 123 species of birds. He had a three-mile-long wall erected around the parkland which, 200 years later, volunteers are working hard to preserve.
