The Parish Council have reached the decision that the Playground on the Youth Club Park, and Poors Meadow Fitness Equipment and swing will remain closed to the public until the Leicester City Lockdown is over.

Are there any fit and able volunteers in the village who would like to assist in the upkeep of the Churchyard?

If two or three, or even more, helpers were available to mow, and tidy the areas the mowers cannot reach, it would only take two to three hours every couple of weeks. It is also good exercise!

Please note that the dumping of bags of garments and shoes next to the recycling bins on the Bricklayers car park is classified as fly tipping. Arrangements are being made to remove the bags by Blaby District Council at a cost to residents. If you are the culprit then please remove them before Blaby search them for an address. Blaby will fine to recoup some of the costs.
