It is that time of year when we reflect on the past 12 months to review some of the news stories in your Chad for 2024.

In 2024, we reported on several stories from across the community, including devastating fires, events and exhibitions, fundraising efforts and campaigns.

We also covered significant political changes in the region, such as the historic election of an East Midlands Mayor in May and the appointment of a new MP for Mansfield in July.

Additionally, we followed Mansfield Town FC after their promotion to League One.

Here is your 2024 in review…
