The issue of falling salmon numbers in the Rivers Severn is being put to anglers and fishery managers, to see if they would accept limits on the number of fish caught.

The Environment Agency says there is no simple solution to the declining salmon population and that fishermen are not the biggest threat, but says it wants to see if fishing could be managed better.

This consultation is due to last until 9 October and the agency says it also wants to improve habitats, improve river flow, remove barriers to migration and clear up water quality in spawning grounds.

The new signs will be displayed on all accessible toilets throughout London Midland's 43 stations.

While one hospital turned down a £2,500 donation from a group of men dressed up as nurses, many more have said they're happy to receive the donation.

The outfits were described as "insulting" and "demeaning" by hospital bosses.

But fundraiser Peter Corfield has said a number of hospitals around the country have been in touch to say they'd gladly receive the donation "irrespective of the way the collectors were attired".

Mr Corfield said "the money was raised in Ludlow for the benefit of local people" and so, for now, it will remain in the account until the fundraisers can agree "on the most appropriate cause that is local, charitable, practical, has a healthcare connection and, above all is not challenged over the collection methodology."

Shropshire Revolution have a Brit Bowl semi-final against Gateshead Senators at Oakengates on Sunday.

The team got there by crushing Morecambe Storm 60 - 8 in the quarter-finals last weekend.

The Revolution are the number one seed in the play-offs after a perfect winning record in the regular season, but if they reach the final they will have to play in Leeds, possibly against the number two seeded Leeds Bobcats.

“I’m delighted with the business we’ve managed to do, and the squad now is no doubt the strongest I’ve had the privilege to work with,” he said, ahead of Town’s weekend trip to Oxford.

“If the players show the right attitude and take on board the things we’re asking of them, I think we can have a good season.”

Hospital trusts from across the country have said they'd be happy to receive the £2,500 raised by Shropshire men dressed as nurses for Ludlow Hospital, but the hospital's league of friends says it has to be spent locally.

The money was turned down by the Shropshire Community Health Trust, on the grounds their costumes were "demeaning" and "insulting to the profession".

The league of friend's chairman Peter Corfield says the money is in the bank and can't be handed over to another trust or charity without a meeting being held.

And their constitution states cash raised should be spent in Ludlow.

Plans to build 230 homes on the Copthorne Barracks site in Shrewsbury are to go before councillors for the second time, after being turned down last year.

The development would include a mixture of apartments, houses and retirement homes and the report going before Shropshire Council's planning committee next week recommends the application is approved.

There's been concern over the number of affordable homes in the plans, the number of homes for veterans and the loss of a well-used playing field on the site.
