Cllr John Nowell, Oakham Town Council, Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance, Zodiac Publishing UK Ltd, Arrive Alive Appeal

Cllr John Nowell has been absent from many council meetings this year.

Cllr John Nowell mixing politics and harassment with fundraising turned the Rutland branch

of the DLRAA into a pretty Black mess.

I understand Cllr John Nowell no longer collects the air ambulance charity boxes from

Rutland Shops due to some complaints regarding his handling procedures.

Cllr John Nowell brought about change for good at Oakham Town Council after one of his charitable

organisations submitted a fraudulent application for a community grant from the town council. 

The council subsequently amended its standing orders banning councillors, their family and friends from applying for community grants. 

Leicestershire Police claimed to investigate Cllr John Nowell and he was not prosecuted because he told them it was all a misunderstanding and it was his wife who had completed and submitted the application, I admire his quixotic action.

I wonder if any of the investigating officers are members of the 

his lodge? (Cllr John Nowell declares he is a Master Mason but does not declare at which Lodge)

I am wondering if Cllr Nowells new business activities are preventing him from fully serving his

local community.

His standard of living has visibly improved this year, a home amongst Oakham's slightly richer community members and some have even noticed Cllr Nowell stepping out of his new luxury black Mercedes a must have for any charity fund raising director, he is even sporting a new red coat the colour of the charity, we will miss seeing him in the yellow!

Cllr Nowell has started work for another air ambulance type charity. http://oakham.leicestershireparishcouncils.org/uploads/1752d7c13d46c05374099417.pdf

As their appeals director.

His linkedin public profile confirms this:

The Appeal DirectorArrive Alive AppealJanuary 2014 – Present (1 year)

Responsible for the establishment of a UBC (Used Beverage Can), UK wide, recycling movement to collect millions of discarded UBCs to construct '24/7 Demountable Aluminium Helicopter Landing Platforms' (helipads) at all Children's Hospitals 

He also includes inaccurate information about his past directorship Zodiac Publishing.

A company set up with tax payers hand outs, at the time Mr Nowell was photographed

proudly holding a large cheque that funded the start up Mr Nowell also explained how

he would employ local people.

The truth is he never did and employment was limited to his immediate family.

Mr Nowell states on his public Linkedin profile that his company was formed in 1994

Chairman (he describes himself as chairman in his declaration of interests he is Managing Director)

Zodiac Publishing UK Ltd

January 1994 – January 2014 (20 years 1 month)

Companies House records state the company was incorporated much later, 2005

Since its incorporation Zodiac publishing has never submitted its accounts on time.

All annual accounts have been submitted 11 - 13 months late. His recent  resignation as 

Oakham Town Partnership treasurer does not surprise me, because accounting for the

pennies does not seem to be a priority for Cllr Nowell.

Rutland First World War Commemoration Parade, took place on the afternoon of Saturday 2nd August 2014. its a pity it rained.

Starting from Oakham School’s Kilburn Road Recreation Ground, the parade of Cadets from E Company, Leicestershire Northamptonshire and Rutland Army Cadet Force, joined by the Leicestershire and Derbyshire Yeomanry marched from Oakham to Langham.

The march was a commemoration of events 100 years ago.  Following the declaration of war on 4th August, just two days later members of the Oakham Company of Territorials (5th Battalion Leicestershire Regiment) responded to duty’s call, and were given a rousing “send-off” as they marched out of Oakham en route for Loughborough, later to take their places in the trenches in France and Flanders.

The Lord Lieutenant of Rutland also joined the march.

Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland Air Ambulance, Fundraisers, Devastated by Fire at Family owned Rutland Laundry

Rutland Laundry, Melton Road Oakham Closed, due to fire.

The laundrette was damaged by fire

Terry and Mandy Black are now clearing up.

The fire, which was caused by tea towels overheating in a tumble dryer, caused smoke damage to the shop and some machines. 

Mr Black said: “Mandy was totally devastated when she saw the damage.

Mr and Mrs Black are active fundraisers for the Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland Air Ambulance
with their good friend Oakham Town Councillor Mason John Nowell.

About this time last year I was arrested and charged for taking the above photograph of Mrs Black collecting in
Uppingham. After I took the photograph she crossed the road dragging her daughter past me into nearby Tory Cllr Baines shop. (I had never met or heard of the family before this day)

Mrs Black and her daughters appeared in the following weeks Rutland Times, as a fund raiser for a good cause the family often appear in their favourite paper. So her objection to her daughter appearing in the public domain 
was some what dubious.

The CPS very quickly chucked out that stupid charge, along with other trumped up charges. Mrs Black falsely 
accused me of stalking her. 

Cllr Joyce Lucas, Ex Mayor Paul Beech and Tory Rutland County Councillor Gene Plews and others all lied to
the police.

Oakham Town Councillor John Nowell, Area Organiser For Oakham
Still almost  one year on under police investigation.

It was interesting to  watch Inside out and  see what people are locally
complaining about. They say we give our money to run the Air Ambulance.

The Boss of the charity is paid over £100,000 a year. He also uses
a company that employs his wife.

Staff are paid thousands in bonuses.

New shops are being opened costing thousands to fit out and managers
are paid high wages. In Oakham the Charity took over one of Oakham's
most expensive retail properties.

Nottingham and Lincolnshire are complaining about the charity intruding
into their area.

I was told the is going to open a store in London this year. So I imagine
this will result in complaints from fundraisers in London.

My view is this charity is no different from any other big charity who pay
to much for there staff and entertainment fund raising,

It is no surprise smaller charities spring up who actually pass on all the
money raised for their cause.

Mr Stephenson, on Erewash Borough Council in Derbyshire, apologised for the “tasteless” remarks.

Speaking from his home near Ilkeston, Mr Stephenson said: "If I've caused offence to anyone I am really very sorry.

"I never intended to and if I could turn back the clock i would.

"I don't know the lady who made the complaint but I apologise to her for any offence caused."

He added: “I am totally against the use of guns and no-one should have been exposed to them in the way those two lady police officers were.”

Council leader Chris Corbett said he was appalled, adding: “I have removed him from his post as a lead member immediately.”

It is not possible to remove him as a borough councillor as he was elected, but he will not be able to stand for re-election for the party.


Erewash Council always interest me because it does some funny things.

It once sacked it Chief Executive and used the money to employ five road sweepers.

the sacked chief executive sued and won his case so I can only imagine in the end the council
did not save a penny.

The Chief Executive who is obviously more qualified than our current mistake here in Rutland
became the head of legal services at Rutland County Council.

He no longer does that job, people don't really know what he does these days.

He wrote to me the other week asking me to be patient, Rutland County Council owe me money
he said I will receive a refund, but  I must be patient. he must be have a job in the typing pool

Now can you imagine me or anyone else getting away with that if we owed them a penny?
