In that time, Jim has been a tireless advocate for carers and the people they care for in Hucknall and across the wider area.

His long-standing commitment to providing a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space for carers and those they care for has had a lasting impact on the local community.

However, Jim has recently been unwell and after a spell at Kings Mill Hosptial in Sutton, he is now at Harrier House Care Home in Hucknall.

While he was in hospital, he was visited by Hucknall MP Michelle Welsh (Lab), who has been a regular supporter of Hucknall Carers Group.

She also visited him at Harrier House and said: “It was lovely to see Jim back in Hucknall where he belongs after a stay in Kings Mill.

"Jim has done so much for the community and now he is getting some well-deserved rest and care from the fantastic staff at Harrier House whilst he recovers.

"I look forward to seeing Jim back on his feet.”

Jim added that he also wants to thank all the staff at Harrier House for the care he is receiving from them.
