Swarms of flies and a "vile" smell are plaguing homes in Kirkby-in-Ashfield which residents blame on a nearby tip.

People living in Low Moor Road said the Veolia Waste Transfer Facility attracts the flies.

Trefor Walters, who is the founder of the Kirkby Action Group, collected this in 24 hours.

He said: "We keep the windows closed, which is pretty bad anyway... as soon as you open the window the smell crawls through the window and attacks you and the flies come soon after - it is a constant battle."

Veolia said it has "enhanced odour control measures" after meetings with the group, Nottinghamshire County Council and the Environment Agency.

The county council also said Veolia has agreed to introduce a number of operational changes to help with the problem.

Phil said: "It is going to be a challenge as to what do I do now because I have always run marathons and done these long endurance events but what do I do next?"

Phil will have rehabilitation treatment until December when the doctors will decide if he needs an operation but he will not be able to swim again.

A Rutland church's bat problem is being studied in a national project to see how the protected species - and the building they live in - can better live together.

An estimated 750 bats are now living in All Saints church in Braunston in Rutland and it's been chosen to pilot a project aimed at protecting the church and the animals living there.

All Saints is one of three churches involved in the Bats and Churches Partnership, external - which is being paid for with £3.8m from the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Deborah Colvin, from the project, said: "We hope to be able to restrict the bats from the internal space of the church and still allow them to use other areas that don't impact on people."

The organisers of Derbyshire's Y Not festival say they'll be meeting their insurers this morning to discuss refunds for festival goers.

Heavy rain turned the site into a mud bath over the weekend and the final day was cancelled over safety concerns.

It's the first year the event's been staged since being sold to Global, which says information for people wanting refunds will be available soon.

Many music fans were unhappy with the festival's handling of the wet conditions.

One told the BBC: "We were waiting for The Vaccines at the front, and got absolutely soaked.

"It took a while for [the organisers] to tell us it was cancelled, and by that time we were all miserable.

"I think they needed to be more prepared for the mud. It is Derbyshire."
