Welcome back to Cadent as they start their monthly tradition of digging a hole, blocking the pavement and taking up our parking spaces. No doubt they’ll be back next month to do exactly the same thing.

Once a Nottinghamshire County Council worker, always a Nottinghamshire County Council worker. Even in retirement our Alan is still hard at work clearing the drains and keeping the streets of Basford free from floods. #LocalHero

Hi Nottingham City Transport. Our cameras captured an RTA involving one of your buses on Nottingham Road in Basford this morning. We hope the passengers and driver are okay. Please contact us if you require anymore footage. Anthony Carver-Smith

Hi Cadent. Now that the gas works outside our shop have become a monthly event, would you consider some kind of financial donation to our struggling charity for the noise pollution, taking up parking spaces and general inconvenience? Thanks.

If you’re travelling to and from Bulwell on Nottingham City Transport then don’t forget to give our Mesopotamia Snowman a wave. 👋

This weeks clearance…… Beautiful office Senator Office Chairs and Bisley Cabinets. Thanks to Mike at University of Sunderland #Sunderland

Can anyone help us track this gentleman down? He took a laptop from our shop yesterday and we’d like to give him the opportunity to come back and pay for it before we get the police involved. Please share and let’s try to make #Basford and #Nottingham a better place to live.🙏🏻

More shoplifting today and volunteer morale is pretty low. The police have been informed. Please share and let’s prevent similar things happening to other local businesses. Thank you. #Shoplifting #Basford #Nottingham

Yesterday evening this gentleman walked into our shop and helped himself to, amongst other things, our Charity Collection Pot. If you have any information on him then please call Nottinghamshire Police on 101 and quote the incident number 0322_04042024 Please Share. Thank you.

Thanks to Maria Rubio for highlighting the shoplifting problems across our county. Not only does it have a financial impact on businesses, it also has psychological repercussions on staff and volunteers alike.

Please can you help? This man stole an electric scooter from just inside our shop at around 13.05pm. It belonged to one of our customers who had just popped in, she’s a local care worker and relies on her scooter to get her to and from work. Please share. Thanks.

Our Sunday Sale is now on. 3 items of clothing for just £1 plus…. all the usual bargain. 557 Valley Road, Basford. NG5 1JE. #JumbleSale #Clothes #Nottingham

From promoting our Community Kitchen, and Turkey Earthquake Appeal to reporting on our quest to help Syrian Children, our break-ins and our ongoing problems with shoplifting, Notts TV have been incredibly supportive over the last 10 years. It’s a really sad day for Nottingham.

We don’t see this very often! The William Ivory NET Nottingham Tram passing our shop and making its return home to Nottingham after lengthy repairs over in Derby. Welcome home Billy.

Valley Road is completely closed both ways from the City Hospital Island down to the Nottingham Road junction. The cars are still blocking the carriageway nearly opposite Western Valley Stores so it won’t reopen for some time. #Nottingham
