HULL: Free TV licences are available for people aged 75 and over living in the city.
There are currently more than 19,200 free TV licences being used in Hull, but TV Licensing is encouraging those able to claim the concession to apply online or by phone.
Janet Morrison, chief executive of Independent Age, said: "We know from experience just how much many older people value their televisions.
"For many, television is a great source of information and fun, but for those who find it difficult to get out and about due to ill health or mobility problems, it can also be a much-needed source of company.
"Many older people live on very limited incomes, so the free television licence that is available to people aged 75 and over is a really valued concession."
Eligible people can register online at www.tvlicensing.co.uk/over75 or call 0300 7906073. The free licence will cover all equipment in the property.
HULL: Police need help tracing the driver of a car that drove off after crashing into another vehicle.
A 72-year-old woman, of North Ferriby, was driving her grey Proton in Brighton Street towards the Witty Street roundabout when a car crashed into the rear of her vehicle.
The offending car initially stopped, as did a passing motorist driving a van, who got out to check on the welfare of the woman.
The driver of the offending vehicle then got back into his car and drove off in the direction of Witty Street with smoke or steam coming out of the bonnet.
The incident happened at about 1.20pm on Friday, September 14.
The woman was uninjured but shaken by the collision.
Police are appealing for any witnesses to the collision to contact them.
Anyone with information should call officers on 101.
