Description: To mark Dementia Action Week (18鈥�24 May 2026), Boots is funding new research with the 海角黑料 to explore how Memory Boxes could support everyday dementia care, and the potential for the initiative to be scaled as a social prescribing tool. The research builds on Boots' Memory Box initiative launched for Dementia Action Week 2025, when the retailer distributed over 1,000 boxes to care homes and carers across the UK. This project is co-lead by Professor Tracey Thornley, Professor of Health Policy, and Professor Svenja Adolphs, Professor of English Language and Linguistics.

Description: A decade after being named a UNESCO City of Literature, Nottingham is set to further celebrate its rich writing heritage with the launch of a new literary map highlighting the people, places and tales that earned the city its creative status. The project, led by Dr Matthew Welton, Associate Professor in Creative Writing in the School of English at the 海角黑料, in collaboration with Nottingham City of Literature, commemorates the organisation's 10-year anniversary of the city's prestigious status. Funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and designed as both a physical guide and a digital resource, the literary map showcases the diverse storytelling culture that has shaped Nottingham across centuries.

Description: Experts from the Universities of Nottingham and Exeter are to ensure that a nationwide survey, commissioned by Henry VIII on the property and wealth of 16th-century England and Wales, be made publicly accessible for the first time.The survey, known as the Valor Ecclesiasticus, set out to discover the financial state of the Church of which the Tudor king had just made himself head in his Break with Rome.Valor Ecclesiasticus counted 8,000 parish churches, 650 monasteries, 22 cathedrals and numerous chapels, chantries, colleges, schools, hospitals and poor houses. It took note of their buildings and grounds, their farmland and the commercial, industrial and residential property in which they were invested. And it recorded the names of many of the men and women who lived and worked with these great enterprises and even gave attention to the large number of children, elderly and sick who depended on them for their welfare.
