FIFA WORLD CUP 2018 Tattoo Parlours Urged to Join Star Rating Scheme Tattoo parlours and other studios and beauty salons that use needles and blades in Mansfield are being urged to sign up to a county-wide scheme that rates their standards of hygiene and safety. Local authorities across Nottinghamshire, including Mansfield District Council, which are responsible for licensing businesses that offer tattoos, body piercing and permanent and semi- permanent make-up treatments, are working together on the Nottinghamshire Hygiene Accreditation Scheme. The aim of the scheme is to improve hygiene and safety standards associated with tattooing and cosmetic piercings, along with any permanent or semi-permanent treatments and procedures that use needles or micro-blades, and is part of a wider strategy by Mansfield District Council to make the district a safer place to live, work and visit and improve the wellbeing of its citizens. The five star rating system operates in a similar way to the national food hygiene scheme for restaurants and shops selling food products. The first scheme of its kind was launched in Wales in 2014 and has been a huge success. Businesses that offer the highest rates of hygiene and safety are awarded five stars signifying excellent standards. The lowest Pinders Leon Robson and Peter Herniman from Pinders Opticians rating is zero stars which indicates that urgent improvements are needed. The rating scheme has been developed using Chartered Institute of Environmental Health guidance on best practice for the industry, and from feedback provided during consultations with local businesses. Pinders Announces The scheme costs £120 to join and for the initial inspection, and £60 for a re-inspection and re-rating. Businesses that achieve two to five stars are reviewed after 12 months but those that achieve zero or one star are inspected again after six months. The kind of areas the accreditation covers include: Intergalactic Mission • The state and fabric of the premises • Cleanliness procedures employed by the business. • Cleanliness of staff • The safe use, storage and disposal of needles, inks and equipment. for Local Charity 'Reach' • Sterilisation and cross-contamination prevention measures • Consent forms and record keeping of clients.

“Countryside would be “littered with fracking wells” to replace half UK gas imports – new research” (Drill or Drop) A recent study carried out by Cardiff Business School estimated that, in order to cut gas imports by 50% from 2021 to 2035 and replace THE FIGHT FOR A this with domestic shale gas production would require about 6,100 wells, based on medium well productivity. The estimated number of wells needed range from the most optimistic of 4,090 wells, to the lowest well productivity requiring 16,500 wells, which equates to drilling and fracking 3 new wells every day during the time frame. . Daniel Carey-Dawes, senior infrastructure campaigner at the FRACK FREE WARSOP Campaign to Protect Rural England (CPRE) said: “The many thousands of wells that would be needed, peppered across The Bentley Effect, a film screened by Frack Free Warsop last our precious landscapes, would cause harm to the English countryside on an industrial scale…It must not become an industrial testing ground month, detailed the campaign by the citizens of the Northern for a fracking industry that has no environmental, economic or social licence.” Rivers area of Australia against the fracking industry.

He said some faults were too small to be identified on of Frack Free Notts, who made some interesting points including the fuels, to meet legally binding climate targets.” geological maps or seismic surveys but were still big enough to cause the 0.5 magnitude earthquakes that under UK regulations would stop fracking. The article went on to report that Coal Board engineers and surveyors had recorded faults as small as a few centimetres. These records had been analysed by Liverpool University researchers and can now be used to overlay proposed and actual shale gas sites. Professor Styles advised that fracking not be carried out in areas previously undermined and thought fracking in mining areas near pre-existing faults should be banned. He said he had identified faults close to proposed shale gas sites using detailed underground mining records and called for these records to be taken into account when decisions were made about fracking sites. The biggest risk from seismic activity is that even small tremors could cause well integrity failure, leading to toxic fluid leaking into surrounding rock. Fracking our “groundwater protection zone” area could lead to hundreds of wells being drilled through the Sherwood Aquifer, each one posing a potential risk of contamination to a groundwater source that supplies water to 8 million people.
