7 Obscure Sports Teams in Nottingham

Mon 13 Mar 2017

Nottingham is a proper sporting city. Nottingham Forest Football Club have won the European Cup twice and Notts County are the oldest football league club in the world – although, not for much longer if they keep flirting with relegation. Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club have won the County Championship six times and their home, Trent Bridge, is a world famous international cricket venue. Meanwhile, the Nottingham Panthers are one of the most successful ice hockey teams in the country, recently becoming the first British team to win a European trophy.

The Place is Here at Nottingham Contemporary

Thu 09 Mar 2017

There are some things from the eighties that we’ve – thankfully – waved goodbye to: Grolsch bottle tops on your shoes, poodle perms and the painfully long loading time of the Spectrum ZX. Some things, however, have stuck around like proverbial bad smells. Things like a lack of diverse representation on our television screens, oppressive and suppressive politics and political leaders, racism and xenophobia. Nottingham Contemporary’s latest exhibition, The Place Is Here, holds both colonial and modern Britain to account, unashamedly points the finger, and demands a response.

7 Organisations Combatting Misogyny in Nottingham

Wed 08 Mar 2017

Nottinghamshire Police are the first police force in the country to rule misogyny as a hate crime. That includes physical or verbal harassment directed at women, because they are a woman, via any means. So, if you’re walking home and a group of guys decide to shout inappropriate, sexual comments at you, or someone grabs your arse on a night out, you’re well within your rights to report the behaviour to the authorities.

All you have to do is ring 101, and if the assault is particularly severe, call 999. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the perpetrator will be punished, but it does mean the police can collect information regarding these types of incidents – where, when and how often they happen – and work on making the streets of Notts safer for all. It also means that they can direct you to any support and guidance you may need following the event. There are some incredible local organisations who’ll go out of their way to help you...
