Known around the world as the home of the famous folklore hero, Robin Hood, Nottingham is a city offering culture, history, shopping, sport, arts and green spaces to breathe. Right in the middle of the country – you can travel to London or Manchester in less than two hours and Birmingham in under an hour. With excellent transport links, Nottingham is set to be the perfect location for the WJSYSC2020. EXPLORE NOTTINGHAM The city centre is largely pedestrianised and compact with an excellent transport network, making Nottingham perfect for relaxed strolling and sight-seeing. History Robin Hood is one of the world’s best loved folklore heroes and Nottingham is the place to learn more about the legend. Start with Nottingham Castle and then venture deeper down underground where you can explore part of Nottingham’s subterranean network of over 550 caves at the City of Caves, with the thrilling National Justice Museum nearby presenting an extensive and grisly history of crime and punishment in the city. Arts & Culture The Motorpoint Arena Nottingham is based in the Lace Market which is the oldest area of the city and makes up part of the Creative Quarter. The district has its own unique character, and today the area merges history with independent culture, revealing the spirit of modern Nottingham. The city is brimming with lively bars, restaurants and modern art at the Nottingham Contemporary gallery. Venture further into the city and you’ll find world-class theatres, shopping, galleries, music venues and more. Shopping If you love to shop, Nottingham offers an enticing mix of high street, designer boutiques and vintage clothes stores. Popular shopping destinations include Intu Victoria Centre, Bridlesmith Gate and Clumber Street. Food Nottingham is the perfect location to sample England’s most famous dish – traditional fish and chips! Speak to a local who will also tell you Nottingham’s favourite topping is mushy peas – don’t leave town without trying it! With over 300 bars and restaurants in the city centre alone, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to dining in Nottingham, ranging from traditional English fayre to international cuisine.

  • Interesting to Know September
    September 2019 Chaplains visit people in their place of work to offer friendship and to listen. Their support is unconditional, non-judgmental, independent and confidential. Interesting to Know.......... Employment continues to increase, with three-quarters of this year’s growth being due to more women working. However, the number of vacancies has been falling for six months, with fewer now than there were this time last year. Henry Boot Developments has been awarded exclusive rights to transform the Central Library on Angel Row into Grade A office space. They are also involved in the regeneration of the former Imperial Tobacco factory - currently underway. In 2018, there were 19.1 million families in the UK, an increase of 8% from 17.7 million in 2008. The City Council spent £4.4 million on cleaning the city streets in the last financial year. This works out at a cost of £13.38 per head of the city’s population. Half the Premier League football teams and 16 out of 24 Championship sides are sponsored by gambling firms. Financial services company Talbot and Muir has doubled its presence in Nottingham by taking out more office space in the city centre. The firm has moved from an office in Clarendon Street to set up its new headquarters in Maid Marian Way. Around half of the children in care in Nottingham have brothers and sisters who are also in care. A forgotten area of the city centre could soon have a new major mixed use development. The planning application for the redevelopment of the junction of Glasshouse and Howard Streets (behind intu Victoria Centre) is for a 90 student bed units and three commercial units over seven and eight storeys.
