Ashfield District Council has launched a new project to connect businesses with local graduates, funded by their share of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
The Ashfield GradBoost project will work directly with universities in the East Midlands region to encourage graduates from Ashfield to start their careers in one of the many businesses in the District.
They will also support unemployed graduates progress into the variety of graduate level roles that are available on their doorstep. Graduates in employment will be supported to remain in work and enhance their career.
The scheme will provide opportunities for graduates from Ashfield to use their skills, knowledge, and experience to contribute to the success of the local area.
The project will also offer bespoke consultancy support to small and medium sized businesses in the District to attract, recruit and develop graduate talent, making it easier for dynamic local businesses to recruit graduates with the skills and knowledge needed to take their business to the next level.
Cllr Matthew Relf, Executive Lead Member for Growth, Regeneration, and Local Planning, said: “Graduates from Ashfield have a wealth of skills and capabilities that would make them an asset to businesses seeking to grow, innovate and diversify their organisation. This project will help to keep that valuable talent in the local area boosting the economy, skill levels and leading to greater opportunities for both the businesses and the graduates.
“This project is just one of the ways that Ashfield District Council is supporting local businesses and young people. We know how important it is to keep these highly-skilled people in Ashfield and this scheme will help retain as much local talent as possible. We have a fantastic array of businesses in Ashfield and we want them to help them prosper.”
The scheme will end in March 2025 and businesses in Ashfield are encouraged to get in touch with GradConsult Ltd to benefit from the project.
Ashfield Graduates can contact GradConsult Ltd to access this free support by visiting the Career Boost portal on Ashfield District Council’s website.
Gabi Binnie, Head of Programmes and Research at GradConsult, which delivers the Ashfield GradBoost project on behalf of Ashfield District Council, said: “We are delighted to be working with Ashfield District Council on this new project, which will support economic growth by helping small and medium sized businesses to access graduates from universities across the East Midlands. There has never been a more exciting time for graduates to start their career in Ashfield.”

Plans to create a new Derby headquartered organisation that will manage rail infrastructure and train operations in the UK have moved a step closer.
Recently, Transport Secretary Louise Haigh launched a shadow version of Great British Railways – the public body that will oversee Britain’s railways.
The establishment of Shadow Great British Railways (Shadow GBR) is intended to pave the way for the full establishment of Great British Railways (GBR), which will require legislative approval.
In March last year, following a nationwide competition, the Government named Derby as the new headquarters for GBR in recognition of its world-leading position in the sector.
Louise said: “Establishing Shadow Great British Railways marks a significant step towards delivering a unified railway with passengers at its heart by bringing together track and train.
“This government will direct every penny into creating a stronger, more reliable rail network that works for everyone.
“This is about making the railways work for the people that use them – putting passengers first and driving up performance.”
The idea behind GBR is to bring together responsibility for both track and train into a single organisation, to make the railway simpler to use, more efficient to run and better for the country as a whole.
Earlier this year, the Government published its draft Rail Reform Bill – the legislation needed to create GBR.
The draft bill is now being scrutinised by Parliamentarians and industry.
Derby beat off competition from locations around the country, including Birmingham, Newcastle and York, to be selected as the home of GBR.
It followed a concerted campaign by the city called Destination Derby, which was backed by the public, businesses and politicians, not just from Derby and Derbyshire, but across the region.
A spokesperson for the Great British Railways Transition Team said: “The plan to create Shadow Great British Railways (SGBR) is a welcome step. The Great British Railways Transition Team (GBRTT) will use its ‘one-railway’ capability and tools to help SGBR and its drive for better collaboration across the rail sector.
“The Prime Minister has been clear that an enlarged GBR headquarters in Derby will be at the heart of a ‘rail renaissance’. GBRTT will take advantage of what Derby has to offer today by continuing to work from its office there together with SGBR partners, ultimately helping to play its part in delivering benefits to customers ahead of broader structural changes under Great British Railways.”
On the back of attracting GBR, the city is now looking to establish a new campus devoted to companies and organisations involved in the sector.
Derby City Council and East Midlands Mayor Claire Ward, together with the Great British Railways Transition Team, will share the vision for Rail Campus Derby at a special conference, which is due to take place in the city in October.
It will explore opportunities for railway businesses and organisations from across the country to co-locate businesses or key personnel alongside the new headquarters for Great British Railways at the proposed campus.
Speakers from national rail organisations and key regional stakeholders will be supporting the conference, including John Forkin, Managing Director of Marketing Derby.
Specialist metals manufacturer Fablink Group has been acquired by Ensco 1 Limited, which will be known as Wharfside Industrials, and its subsidiaries, in a deal that secures more than 500 jobs.
The deal brings together seven pre-pack transactions following the appointment of Chris Pole and Ryan Grant from Interpath Advisory as Joint Administrators.
On Thursday 12 September 2024, the Joint Administrators were appointed to Fablink Limited (FL), Fablink Tank Systems Limited (FTSL), Streamline Panels and Assemblies Limited (SPAL), Fablink Group Holdings Limited (FGHL), Fablink Cab Systems Limited (FCSL), Fablink Group Holdings Limited (FGHL) and Fablink Toolspec Limited (FTL).
The business and assets of the companies were immediately sold on appointment to the new group.
The companies are part of the Fablink Group, a Northampton-based manufacturer specialising in the production of metal pressings, operator cab assemblies, fuel and hydraulic tanks and complex structures, as well as ‘clean build’ of vehicle assemblies. Together, the group trades across six sites in Wolverhampton, Evenwood, Luton, Durham, Brixworth and Northampton.
As a tier one supplier, Fablink has built a strong reputation in delivering comprehensive design and manufacturing solutions to some of the world’s largest OEMs within the automotive, truck, off-highway, power generation and material handling industries.
Over the last two years, however, the group has suffered from a number of adverse events which have cumulatively caused challenges to liquidity. This included delays in the receipt of grant funding to support its relocation to a new site in Wolverhampton and the insolvency of one of its customers, which caused a significant bad debt.
The directors sought to explore the options available to the group, including its sale, investment, refinance and restructuring options. All the group’s 521 employees have transferred to the purchaser as part of the transactions.
Chris Pole, Managing Director at Interpath and Joint Administrator, said: “Fablink has built a strong reputation over the years for its cutting-edge technology and innovative manufacturing processes, but had faced a number of challenges in recent times that threatened the long-term future of the business.
“This outcome secures the future of the Fablink Group and safeguards employment for over 500 staff. We wish the team all the best as it forges a new future.”
The region’s businesses joined academics and industry specialists to tackle barriers in achieving Net Zero at the East Midlands Sustainability Summit on 12th September.
Workshops, seminars and presentations unpicked hurdles faced by firms in their journey to become more sustainable at the event hosted by East Midlands Chamber, in partnership with the University of Derby, where the summit was held.
East Midlands Chamber President Stuart Dawkins opened the summit. He said afterwards: “To see so many businesses, of different types and sizes gathered at this summit was a welcome sight and really underlines just how seriously the East Midlands is taking its approach to sustainability. I get the feeling no one is under any pretence about the obstacles that can make mitigating against Climate Change daunting. How does a business prepare? Are they doing it the right way?
“Today’s summit shared best practice, saw research the Chamber has carried out with the University of Derby and workshops to help break down difficulties and find solutions. The East Midlands must, as I reiterated today, think hard about what it leaves for Generation Next-But-One – what we do now directly impacts the life they inherit. Businesses in Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire really can be on the right side of history and get this right, but how we all get to that destination, when each business is structured differently, is a conversation that must never stop.”
East Midlands Chamber Director of Policy and Insight Richard Blackmore said: “Getting East Midlands businesses together to overcome the challenges around becoming more sustainable is an important step toward achieving Net Zero, but we should remember that the summit was also an excellent opportunity to focus on the economic growth potential for businesses that get the strategy right.
“Keeping the momentum of the sustainability journey front and centre of all business operation is essential, as putting it on the back burner to just worry about another day isn’t an option.
“We heard from some fantastic speakers today and I extend my thanks to all of them – to our summit sponsors Auditel, Geo Green Power and our partner for this summit, the University of Derby.”
Research carried out by the Chamber and the University of Derby into Green Growth Trends – achieving economic growth without negatively impacting the environment – was shared by the university’s Associate Professor of Strategy and Sustainability Dr Polina Baralova. Findings included three quarters of large businesses reporting that they pursue Green Growth, while half of small businesses did.
Following the presentation, Dr Polina Baralova said: “My advice to businesses would be to think a little bit about how to grow sustainably, which we refer to as Green Growth. So, if you have a number of products and services that you trade on the market and they are having green credentials – as in they allow the general public, your customers or suppliers to reduce their carbon footprint and support an environmentally friendly agenda.
“At the same time, you also need to start thinking about your decarbonization initiatives and reducing carbon so those two elements go hand to hand. You can’t really have one without another.”
Auditel Carbon, Cost and Procurement Consultant Julie Adams explored the importance of ‘carbon maturity’ and how to approach Scope 3 emissions. Following the summit, Julie said: “Coming together like this at the summit has been invaluable, and the sessions that we’ve had have all built upon each other with the message that there is an imperative and an urgency to address sustainability that we all have to pull together to head.
“It’s not about having a carbon footprint or reduction plan. It’s how we build this into our lives personally and professionally into a company.”
Spenbeck Co-owner, Sustainability and Building Health Consultant Becky Valentine gave a presentation on overcoming barriers to climate engagement. She said afterwards: “This summit has been very much around ‘you’ve started your net zero journey, now how do we help you with the next steps?’ I think these questions are vital, bringing companies together with academics helps us on the next stage of all of our journeys. I think it it’s been a really vital day.”
Samworth Brothers Responsible Business Director Andy Wright, on the importance of having the right approach to sustainability, said: “Engaging is the key. People have to understand what it is they’re trying to deliver and make it available in a language that is understandable. So, if you’re dealing with procurement colleagues, it’s probably a different conversation than if you’re dealing with new product development colleagues or operational colleagues. There needs to be a message for everybody.”
Headline findings from Green Growth Trends in the East Midlands 2024 research

Half of small businesses (50%) are pursuing Green Growth, while 39% of micro and 53% of medium-sized companies adopt the strategy
More than 45% of East Midlands businesses have invested in decarbonisation initiatives over the past 12 months, an increase of 6% on 2023
Seven out of ten large companies invest in decarbonisation
One in three businesses have never engaged in nature-based solutions over the last 12 months
Commercial interior design and fit out company APSS has created a stunning interior design for Lincolnshire charity Naomi’s Garden as part of a volunteer project bringing together construction and professional service companies across Lincolnshire.
Louth-based Naomi’s Garden provides a conductive education and special education needs consultancy. It also provides Bowen Therapy along with running a Holiday Activities and Food programme (HAF) in conjunction with Lincolnshire County Council.
Conductive education is based on a ‘simple’ concept of human potential, meaning that everyone has the capability to learn and develop irrespective of their starting point. The Bowen technique comprises a series of precise movements over muscle and connective tissue to naturally assist the body in re-balancing and re-setting itself. Between each set of moves there is a pause allowing the nervous system to adjust the tension level in the muscles.
The charity is currently raising funds for its new HQ in Manby Park near Louth to transform it from a motorcycle repair shop into a fit-for-purpose facility, where it can deliver its life-changing services to more people who need them.
APSS designer Caitlin Maginess created the interior concept which steered away from a usual clinical interior and made it a more welcoming and fun experience for the children and adults who require the services.
Caitlin said: “It was important to have a home away from home for people to visit, so we focused on creating a homely feel with a contemporary industrial design using a lot of soft furnishings.
“There are areas within the design where we toned the concept down to focus on the needs of the people who will be using the space.
“In addition to providing the primary service, there will be a space for people and businesses to rent out for classes like Zumba or spinning and birthday parties. There is also a communal kitchen that everyone can use in addition to therapy rooms, meeting rooms and counselling rooms as well as the classroom which will be the heart of the facility.”
When complete, the new centre will enable the charity to extend its working hours, provide group sessions and create a dynamic learning environment for all – no matter what their disability – resulting in 50% more adults and children being supported each year. The building will also give them the option to run group sessions and be used for the wider community.
Sarah-Jayne Walker, Lead Conductor at Naomi’s Garden, said: “When we received the designs from APSS, I cried. We were blown away with how beautiful they were and exactly what we were after.
“Now we need to continue our fundraising journey while we gather as many Lincolnshire-based companies to make this dream a reality. We are in awe at the generosity we have already received from these local companies and businesses along with other charities who have stood shoulder to shoulder with us.
“We currently have a waiting list across Lincolnshire who are keen to benefit from the unique therapy we provide. We desperately need our new more accessible hub to be functional so we can continue our work and expand to help those families who are relying on us as the only service provider of our kind in our area.”

A Leicestershire-based interior fit-out and joinery specialist has opened its first office in London following the successful completion of its largest ever contract.
EE Smith Contracts has invested almost £500,000 in its new base at the Business Design Centre in Islington to build on its work on prestigious projects in the luxury residential and hotel sector.
Twenty-five staff including project managers, design managers and quantity surveyors are based at the new office which includes a meeting room to meet existing and prospective clients.
This decision follows the successful completion of the biggest contract in the company’s 127-year history at the Peninsula London Hotel on Hyde Park Corner where EE Smith Contracts fitted out the ballroom and meeting areas and the hotel and residential spa on two floors of the five-star hotel.
Their order book remains strong after securing a number of contracts for 2024-2025 including a multi-unit residential development in the heart of Mayfair, delivering public areas for one of the world’s most illustrious hotels, and providing bespoke joinery at two super mansions in the Home Counties.
Neil Bottrill, Managing Director of EE Smith Contracts, said although the majority of its employees will remain at its headquarters in Leicester, it made sense to open a London office.
He said: “The majority of our biggest contracts are driven from central London and the South East and opening a London office has been on our radar for quite a few years.
“With the confidence we have in the market, we decided to take a lease at the Business Design Centre and fit out a suite to give us a permanent base for our staff and a space to host clients and meet sub-contractors.
“The market at the moment is quite phenomenal with high-end residential and hotel markets remaining incredibly strong despite a challenging economic backdrop.
“The industry itself has had a difficult couple of years with the energy crisis, inflation on building products and interest rates putting pressure on developers’ build costs, but our pipeline remains strong.
“We are enjoying a continual stream of flagship opportunities, based on client satisfaction levels of previous works, and we’re confident we’re going to win more high-profile contracts in the near future.”
EE Smith Contracts has had a solid year in turbulent times with profit levels maintained despite macro-economic pressures reducing turnover for the year ending March 31, 2024.
Neil Simpson, Finance Director at EE Smith Contracts, said the Group is now debt free, which provides a secure base for the coming years.
He said: “In recent years, we had produced the highest annual revenues in our history and we have continued to produce healthy profit and a strong balance sheet with sufficient capital to deliver large prestigious schemes despite these challenging times which have led to some similar companies in our sector no longer being able to trade.”
EE Smith Contracts has also invested £100,000 in a dedicated learning centre at its HQ in Morris Road, Leicester, after recruiting seven further joinery apprentices this month.
Rushton Hickman has sold ‘The Thomas Sykes building’, which comprises a unique split-level former licensed public house that was originally developed from stables within the historic Everards Burton Brewery site.
The property is situated in an area that has seen a surge in the conversion of commercial buildings to residential use and being so prominently situated in a busy location, there is significant potential for the building.
The Redeemed Christian Church of God Zion Hill Burton has acquired the Thomas Sykes building and they intend to transform it into a community centre that will be open to all, providing much-needed assistance, support and opportunities to strengthen the local community.
Mr Owaboye from the Redeemed Christian Church said: “We were extremely happy with the speed of the sale and the property itself. The community centre will help us to provide a range of activity to the general public, reduce inequalities and help us deal with the required demand.”
Commercial Property Agent, Taylor Millington said: “When we brought this property to the market, it generated a lot of interest due to being in the heart of a residential area and close to the town centre. It is rewarding to see the building being utilised for community welfare which will ultimately benefit the local residents.”
Alongside Chesterfield Canal Trust, landscape architecture practice, Influence Landscape Planning & Design, has commenced works on the next section of the Chesterfield Canal restoration project.
The works, which are taking place on a 2.6km stretch of the canal, from Staveley Basin to the south of Renishaw, Derbyshire, will revitalise the historic canal for people to enjoy and for nature to thrive.
Funded in part by the Staveley Town Deal, these works will see the reconstruction of up to 850 metres of canal channel, the construction of two new bridges – including a bridleway bridge to carry the Trans Pennine Trail over the canal – a new lock, and the enhancement of footpaths and cycleways.
Following planning permission in 2021, on behalf of Chesterfield Canal Trust, Influence Landscape Planning & Design was appointed to produce a landscape masterplan for the project, which led to detailed landscape plans and a Landscape and Ecological Management Plan (LEMP). Working alongside Peak Ecology and Rodgers Leask Consulting Engineers, the team successfully discharged the planning conditions related to the works.
The design features of the landscape plan include attractive seating areas, viewing points, areas for families to play, information boards and clear wayfinding – as the scheme is integrated with the surrounding network of public rights of way.
The landscape proposal includes native tree and shrub planting, areas of wildflower meadow, and aquatic planting along the length of the canal, creating a picturesque backdrop and a robust habitat for wildlife.
Since restoration began in 1989, 12 miles of the Chesterfield Canal have been restored, alongside 37 locks, 11 bridges, and two marinas. The most recent sections completed include Staveley Basin in 2012 and Hartington Harbour in 2018.
This phase of construction works is being delivered by Midlands-based O’Brien Contractors, who are leading the first phase of this 18-month project, which includes major groundworks to clear the canal route and the landscaping. Following this, the abutments for the new Trans Pennine Trail bridge will be constructed, and by October, the 38-meter-long structure will be installed.
Subsequent phases will see the reinstatement of the canal length, a new lock, another accommodation bridge at the bottom of Bellhouse Lane, a pumping system, and the creation of Bellhouse Basin. The towpath will be upgraded to a multi-user trail, extending across the Doe Lea Valley to Renishaw. This restoration project not only enhances outdoor spaces and creates new leisure infrastructure, but it is also expected to increase visitors to the Staveley area by 20%, boosting local economic activity.
George Rogers, Development Manager at Chesterfield Canal Trust, said: “This project represents a major advance in the restoration of the Chesterfield Canal, as we move out of Staveley and into the Doe Lea valley. Moving into a more rural environment, it was really important to us that we gave proper consideration to the landscaping and to ensure that the restoration has a positive impact upon its surroundings for both wildlife and the community.
“Working with Influence and Peak Ecology on these plans has been enlightening and rewarding, and we are excited to see the new landscape maturing over time and the local community being better able to access this wonderful corner of Derbyshire.”
Kathryn Dunk, Principal Landscape Architect at Influence Landscape Planning & Design, said: “It’s been such a pleasure to be involved in a project that marries engineering heritage with new public spaces for all to enjoy, and importantly, this scheme gave us the opportunity to reinstate and enhance native planting to create new habitats for wildlife.
“It’s fantastic to see these former canal routes coming back to life and the historic importance of this site is truly fascinating. The team and I look forward to seeing people spending leisure time on the newly restored pathways and on the water.”
Winvic Construction Ltd, a Northampton main contractor that specialises in the design and delivery of private and public sector construction and civil engineering projects, has been invited to join the Advisory Board of the Policy Liaison Group (PLG) on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), as the sole main contractor representing the construction industry.
This cross-party forum, based in Westminster, will benefit from Winvic’s industry expertise and leadership in advancing ESG initiatives.
Arun Thaneja, Winvic’s Technical Services and Sustainability Director – who last year supported the development of the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC) guidance on carbon offsetting and associated carbon pricing to support the shift towards Net Zero buildings – will lead Winvic’s attendance at regular roundtables.
He will be supported by Heidi Salmons, Winvic’s Head of Marketing, Communications, and Social Responsibility, who will bring valuable insights on the Social aspects of ESG to the discussions.
Winvic will play a pivotal role, joining the roundtables with ministers, parliamentarians, regulators, standard-setters, NGOs and academics that the PLG organises, contributing to bridging the knowledge gap in ESG among parliamentarians and advancing the ESG and sustainability agenda in Parliament.
Discussions will inform key government figures, maintaining the legacy of being one of the most prominent cross-party groups in Westminster.
A place on the Advisory Board means that Winvic will have the opportunity to shape future topics for discussion and make recommendations to parliament as well as shape topics for reports and influence the Decarbonisation Strategy to meet the current 2030 target in The Labour Party manifesto.
Bridging the wider corporate world and that of parliament, the PLG’s strategic objectives include identifying and proposing policy solutions for the challenges that companies and investors face when adopting and applying ESG principles and frameworks. The group also aims to align commercial strategies and public sector objectives, such as achieving net zero, reducing biodiversity loss, ensuring a Just Transition and amplifying diversity, equity and inclusion.
By supporting the development and implementation of effective, low-burden reporting requirements and showcasing how ESG frameworks and principles can enhance business resilience and lower investors’ exposure to risk, the PLG will help the UK become a global green finance centre and an ESG leader.
Arun Thaneja, Winvic’s Technical Services and Sustainability Director, said: “It’s an honour for Winvic to be invited to join the Advisory Board of the Policy Liaison Group on ESG.
“Having a seat at the table will allow us to share our expertise, influence cross parliamentary discussions and collaboratively find solutions to ESG challenges and I’m optimistic that Winvic will gain fresh and innovative insights from other industry experts on the Advisory Board.
“As the only construction contractor to join this significant cross-party forum, we are committed to representing the industry positively and honestly. We view this role as both a privilege and a responsibility.
“We will leverage our extensive knowledge and passion to help advance the ESG and sustainability agenda in Parliament, with the goal of strengthening the UK’s position as an ESG and sustainability leader globally.”
Heidi Salmons, Head of Marketing, Communications & Social Responsibility, added: “Winvic has consistently been at the forefront of ESG initiatives in the industry, and we are eager to contribute our expertise to the PLG.
“We are particularly passionate about highlighting the Social aspect of ESG, underscoring the importance of a Just Transition to ensure that no one is left behind as we work towards a more sustainable future.
“We look forward to supporting the PLG’s mission to help parliamentarians understand ESG, and how frameworks, metrics, practices, and approaches can drive both environmental and social impact, while also securing a more stable and efficient business climate through effective corporate governance.”
