The case of Andrew Milne, the London solicitor who has been demanding thousands of pounds from Sheffield leaseholders, has just been raised in Parliament. Phil Brickell MP said Milne had been “bullying, harassing and threatening” homeowners and called on the SRA to crack down on “crooked lawyers” 👀

“All it takes is one person to believe in somebody. I’ve never had that before.” Hope Through The Herd is a Sheffield business which offers “equine-assisted therapies” to people with mental health problems or additional needs. Steven Coyle, a recovering drug addict, says it turned his life around.

With their yellow eyes, sharp beaks and tendency to nick your food, gulls don’t really get a good press. But watchers say they are interesting and strangely beautiful if you really give them your attention. And, in the winter months, Sheffield is a gull’s paradise. ✍️ @bbobillsmothers.bsky.social

To live off the land, be self-sufficient and grow your own is many people’s dream. However, with years-long waiting lists for a council allotment, that’s easier said than done. Roots Allotments offer people the chance to grow their own produce with no waiting list at all. But not everyone is happy.

We're on telly! Just a few minutes, watch below. Great that the BBC has picked up the story and continued to probe Andrew Milne's activities: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

A big development: the BBC is now running the story about Andrew Milne's "aggressive" letters. "I'm still losing sleep over it. This man has made my life hell." Great to see it getting pick up. And keep an eye on Look North - you may see one of our team! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The Tribune swerves “listicle” articles for most of the year, but at Christmas we break our own rules and indulge ourselves, just the once. This year we’ve asked @hollywilliams.bsky.social to give you the rundown of the 17 best Sheffield-themed Christmas gifts for the Steel City lover in your life.

“We’re all just holding our breath and wondering when they’ll come for the rest of us.” Losing just over a month’s worth of your salary is no small ask at any time, especially just before Christmas. For some academics at the University of Sheffield, however, it’s a hit they are prepared to take.

Corbin Shaw has been working with flags for years, taking objects often seen as symbols of belligerent nationalism and subverting them with humour, emotion and vulnerability.

This is such a lovely read. It made me cry.

“I should think the people of Sheffield have had enough listening about me.” Kathleen Roberts, the last of Sheffield’s Women of Steel, has died, aged 103. Crone Club’s Justine Gaubert picks out eight lessons in life and growing older from one of the last of a generation to whom we all owe so much.

Ever since we started covering Andrew Milne, the solicitor who's been sending letters asking Sheffield leaseholders for thousands of pounds, we've been building up a list of questions. Unfortunately, he's not been keen to answer them. So we eventually tracked him down to a Costa in east London.

A host of international bidders are currently eyeing up Sheffield Wednesday, but some local businessman are keen to get in on the action as well. Today we cover the Sheffield lads looking to get in with the new regime — or even put an offer in themselves 👀 www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/when-supertr...

We've been asking Andrew Milne about his threatening letters for weeks. After he stopped responding to e-mails, we visited several of his properties, but he wouldn't come to the door. But yesterday we finally tracked him down - to a Costa in east London 👇 www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/in-an-costa-...

In February 2013, a British man died while visiting a friend in the US state of Arizona. For the next 12 years he was unidentified — known only as ‘Maricopa County John Doe 2013’. This year, thanks to a team of staff and students at Sheffield Hallam University, his family finally have closure.

Twelve years ago, an unknown British man died in Arizona. Now, a team at Sheffield Hallam have finally solved the mystery of who he was

🚨 Some very nice news: we’ve got a new @manchestermill.bsky.social staff writer. Lucy grew up in Manchester and is the first staffer we’ve hired who first read The Mill at *school*. She looked up to @molliesimpson.bsky.social and is now taking her spot. manchestermill.co.uk/big-news-mee...

What a weekend of @millmedia.bsky.social journalism across the country. Brilliant investigations, great writing. Proud of our writers and editors, who slog so hard to produce work this good. All these cities are better for it. #localjournalism

Over four gruelling days last week, medics were grilled on whether they had done enough to keep 12-year-old Mia Lucas safe. To her mother Chloe, the answer was obvious. “We reached out for help during the most vulnerable time in Mia’s life,” she said. “But she didn’t get the help she needed.”

This is such a brilliant campaign by The Mill. Their six pledges will help make Manchester a better place, but they need an extra 1,000 members by 10 December to make it happen. Whether you're a Mancunian or not, you'll get tons of brilliant journalism, and you'll also be supporting a great cause.

How did Brigantia, a multi-academy trust that promised to turn around Sheffield’s most troubled schools, become accused of a bullying workplace culture? Today's investigation in The Tribune, by @molliesimpson.bsky.social.

These are our six campaign pledges - the things we will do next year if we manage to add 1,000 new members. They were chosen by our readers because they’re things we believe will make Manchester better. Share them and join the campaign 🙏 manchestermill.co.uk

A solicitor, Andrew Milne has been bullying leaseholders across Sheffield into paying him extraordinary sums, with no legal basis. Why hasn't the SRA stopped him? Because he's conducted an extraordinary campaign against the SRA. 180 complaints. Two judicial reviews. More here: buff.ly/LmLVegM

UPDATE: Andrew Milne leasehold investigation. Doorbell camera footage has been shared with The Tribune which shows Andrew Milne and an associate taking photos of homes on Rushley Drive in Dore. In the footage, Milne identifies the home he wants to photograph, before being challenged by the owner.

Really looking forward to this. “Groovy, Laidback and Nasty”, the definitive history of music in Sheffield by friend of The Tribune, @danieldylanwray.bsky.social. Out May 2026 but you can pre-order it now from the brilliant independent Sheffield bookshop @labiblioteka.bsky.social.

Devonshire Green, Saturday 22 November, 11.30am 🪧 ✊

Absolutely brilliant idea from my colleagues at The Mill 👏 If they add 1,000 new members over the next few weeks, they’ll fulfil six pledges to the city. Best of all? The offer is pay what you want for the first two months! There’s also a lovely new print edition which I need to get my hands on 🗞️

This thread collating the Sheffield Tribune’s brilliant investigation into the spivvy lawyer threatening Yorkshire leaseholders into handing over cash is worth reading before the story goes national.

More excellent reporting from the @sheffieldtribune.bsky.social as they work to track down Andrew Milne. And it starts with a really heartbreaking tale. It does feels like they’ve really broken any power this guy had over anyone… www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/after-beckys...

Jaw-dropping update about our leasehold investigation detailing the lengths to which my colleague @djstimms.bsky.social has gone to track down Andrew Milne. Particularly enjoyed the fact that colleagues from Liverpool and London were also involved. Mill Media is now more than the sum of its parts.

Horrified, Becky read Milne’s words. “I accordingly am entitled to vacant possession of the property”, he asserted. “I am writing to give you 7 days notice that I will have a locksmith and agent attend to recover possession for me and change the locks”. Latest update in our Andrew Milne story 👇

So sorry to hear the sad news about Rachel, who was the most brilliantly versatile, warm, perceptive writer (& lovely colleague). And way too young for this. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

Very sad to hear this. Rachel interviewed us in 2024 about The Tribune and Mill Media. She was particularly interested in The Tribune as she grew up in Sheffield. I quoted her stories quite often, including a memorable piece she wrote about the Castle Market. Condolences to everyone who knew her.

“You can imagine, as a 90-something living on her own, she read that with outright panic.” Great to see BBC Radio 4 following up our leasehold investigation on You and Yours today. (Link here: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/..., first story)

Sheffielders have been visiting Wyming Brook for a century. But over the last few years, the beauty spot has been changing, and not everyone is happy about it. The debate raises thorny questions about what nature is for and in whose interests we should intervene. ✍️ @bbobillsmothers.bsky.social
