Cheltenham bus crash: 'Driver sustained serious injuries'
Two roads remain shut in Prestbury, Cheltenham, after a bus crashed into a house this afternoon.
Sgt Martyn Murawa, from Gloucestershire Constabulary, said a bus and a cyclist were involved in a collision before the bus hit a house.
No-one except a dog was in the house when the crash happened.
'Don't cut specialist support for deaf children' says charity
Some parents in the West of England say they're worried plans to cut support for deaf children around Somerset, Bristol and Bath will leave their children floundering.
There are nearly 2,000 deaf children in our region.
Figures show they tend to have worse outcomes at GCSE - on average a whole grade lower - than those who can hear.
And campaigners fear that proposals to cut funding by up to £270,000 will cause that gap to grow.
Sarah Collinson from the National Deaf Children's Society says with the right support deaf children should be able to do just as well as their hearing counterparts.
Essential tree works close A37 at Pensford

Part of the A37
at Pensford has been shut to allow for essential maintenance work.
The condition of
four trees on private land next to the road has deteriorated following a landslip and they need to be felled and removed
to ensure the safety of road users.
It's hoped the work - between Bristol and the A368 Chelwood roundabout - will be
completed by the end of Saturday, according to Bath and North East Somerset council.
The contractor
has put in place a diversion route which goes from the A368 to the A39, then on
to the A4, before returning to the A37.
