Dough-not worry there is not long to wait! Doughnotts is getting ready to open its new store in Lincoln’s Cornhill Quarter next month.
Doughnotts is an independent doughnut company founded in Nottingham in 2015, offering a vast array of delicious treats. It has always pulled in big crowds when bringing it’s pop-up stall to Lincoln previously.
It will create 4-5 new jobs initially, including a manager and assistant manager, but there will be scope to increase this as the shop grows.

Doughnotts’ delicious treats include Glazed and Cinnamon Scrolls, as well as more extraordinary creations like Thicka than a Snicka, Cherry Bakewell and The Avocadough.
They also have vegan options. Dough-not knock it until you’ve tried it!

The company started off ‘in mum’s kitchen with a tenner and a wok’. Co-founders Megan Scaddan and Wade Smith then got themselves a micro-bakery and their own coffee and doughnut bar in Nottingham.
The firm currently has stores in Nottingham, Leicester and Derby. Lincoln will soon follow.

Wade Smith and Megan Scadden previously said: “The response from Lincoln has been the best we have ever had. Our markets do well and we love the people of Lincoln.
“Lincoln was a no brainer for us as we know they love an independent, family-run business, that makes the best D’s.”

Can you help us identify the woman in these CCTV images?
We are appealing for help to identify the woman shown in these CCTV images following a theft that occurred on Wednesday 22 June in Grimsby.
A 92-year-old woman was walking through Freshney Place Shopping centre, Grimsby when it is believed that her purse was taken from her shopping trolley.
The woman in these images we believe may be able to assist with our investigations and we would ask anyone who believes they recognise her to please contact us on our non-emergency 101 line quoting log 246 of 23 June.
A retired fire engine that used to operate in Grimsby was used in Ukraine to help combat a missile attack on a shopping centre, which the G7 has described as a ‘war crime’ by Russia.
On Monday, footage emerged of a missile striking a shopping centre in the Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk, with Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky claiming is is evidence of a deliberate attack by Russia.
At least 20 people were killed and around 56 were injured following the incident, with G7 leaders saying the attack is considered a war crime. More than 1,000 people were inside the building when it was hit by the missile.
A familiar looking fire engine can be seen in video footage of the blaze shared across news outlets and social media platforms, in the form of an old Humberside Fire & Rescue vehicle.

The fire engine used to operate here in North East Lincolnshire, covering Grimsby and Immingham, and it is one of many vehicles sent out by Humberside Fire & Rescue to various countries across Europe in recent years.
Fire Aid recently sent a convoy of around 75 vehicles, equipment and clothing to Ukraine to help provide resources for recovery.

Area manager Matthew Sutcliffe told BBC Look North: “We’ve sent a number of fire engines since 2015 over there. These are end of life fire engines for us in Humberside, so we share them across Eastern Europe where we can.
“It’s an absolute tragedy what we saw yesterday. Firefighters there were using one of our old fire engines to protect the property but also save lives.”
"Absolute terrorism" – says @ZelenskyyUa and publishes a video of a deliberate missile strike on the Kremenchuk shopping center with people inside. Russian propaganda always lies: there is no coincidence, it is a deliberate blow to intimidate the population and mass victims. pic.twitter.com/Gx1f90cMta
During a regular nightly address to the nation on Monday, president Zelensky said: “The Russian missile hit this very object, purposefully. Obviously, that was the order. It is obvious that Russian assassins received such coordinates for this missile.
“They wanted to kill as many people as possible in a peaceful city, in a regular shopping mall.”
