Ahead of England's friendly against Costa Rica tonight, take a look at the new campaign in Lincolnshire to highlight the help available to those experiencing domestic abuse.

Evidence shows that domestic abuse incidents can increase during major international football tournaments.

If you feel scared, controlled, isolated, threatened or intimidated in your relationship, this is abuse.

As the World Cup approaches, we are launching a new campaign to highlight the vital help available for those experiencing domestic abuse, and to encourage those using harmful behaviours to seek help to change.

Evidence shows that domestic abuse incidents can increase during major international football tournaments, and we know it can be a time when people might feel more on edge. This campaign aims to help reach those people.

10,000 coasters will be distributed across Lincolnshire pubs, clubs and venues which will signpost to both the Lincolnshire Domestic Abuse Specialist Service (LDASS) and to Respect, the national charity supporting people who want to change harmful patterns in their relationships.

If you feel scared, controlled, isolated, threatened or intimidated in your relationship, this is abuse.

📞 Call Lincolnshire Police on 101 (999 in an emergency)
💻 Visit https://www.ldass.org.uk/
📞 Or call the National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247 at any time.

We have been made aware of a national PRECAUTIONARY recall of some class 2 medicines and are asking any patients who have been prescribed these drugs from us recently to check their packs.

The recall affects ONE batch of Ramipril 2.5mg Capsules following the identification of a potential packaging error at the manufacturing site (batch number GR155023).
Patients prescribed Ramipril 2.5mg Capsules are advised to check the batch number on their packaging.

Patients with affected packs (batch number GR155023) should stop taking them immediately, return them to their pharmacy and contact their GP practice. This affects a small number of packs ONLY and patients with unaffected packs (the majority) may continue to take their capsules as prescribed.

A team from Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust (LCHS) nominated their line manager for an award after she managed them so well.

Staff from the Lincolnshire Post-Covid Rehabilitation Service put forward Danielle Albon, their clinical team leader, for a Cavell Star Award in the colleague’s category.

Her nomination was to reflect the amazing commitment, and support Danielle showed the team, always advocating for them and showing the utmost compassion for the team. Danielle brought real cohesion to this team and guided the team of 12, through some challenging times. This included changes within the service, in addition to a reduction in staffing.

Danielle from Lincoln said: “I was so proud to receive this award. It was a complete surprise and very lovely of my colleagues to nominate me.

“Working with the Post-Covid team has been the highlight of my career; they are committed, compassionate, and the best team I have ever had the privilege of working alongside. I can’t thank them enough for inspiring me to be the best leader I could be.”

Cavell Star Awards is a national programme that celebrates the dedication of nurses, midwives, nursing associates and healthcare assistants and recognises the exceptional care they provide to patients, families, and colleagues. Any nurse, midwife, healthcare assistant, maternity support worker or nursing associate can be nominated for an award.

Lewis Allett, Chief Executive at Cavell, explains: “The Cavell Support team is here for nursing and midwifery staff when they’re in a crisis, so we are really excited that the Cavell Star Awards are proving so successful at boosting morale for teams working extremely hard in challenging situations.”

Danielle’s team said she is very deserving of this award, and they were delighted the team at Cavell whole heartedly agreed.

Congratulations Danielle. 👏
