In brief
MOORLANDS: A cash-strapped charity will hold a meeting to brainstorm ideas on ways to raise funds.
The newly-formed Moorlands Home Link Fund Raising and Support Group will meet at the Methodist Church Hall, in Charles Street, Cheadle, on Wednesday from 6pm. Chairman Chris Mellor said: "We welcome anyone who is interested in being a part of the support group, whether relatives, volunteers, staff or friends of Moorlands Home Link – anyone with new ideas, or people who just want to show their support and ensure that Moorlands Home Link will continue to be a presence in the Staffordshire Moorlands."
The Sentinel reported earlier this year how Moorlands Home Link was having to charge for its services for the first time after a central subsidy from Staffordshire County Council was axed.
MEIR: Pensioner Harry Hollinshead, who is accused of four offences under the Sexual Offences Act, will enter his pleas at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court on November 9.
