🚌 New Bus Route Coalville to Hinckley! 🚌
I’m pleased to say that I have today received confirmation from Leicestershire County Council that a new bus route from Coalville to Hinckley, the LC6, will begin on Tuesday 26th August. I understand that this will initially be a 1-year trial service with scope for extension, subject to demand.
I know the impact the removal of the old service had on many learners studying at college, people getting to work, those attending key appointments, and accessing local amenities. Therefore, I’m pleased to see a new route come forward.
Investment in our transport connections provides vital links between communities for local people. I will continue to battle for better buses here in North West Leicestershire and for our fair share of the £8 million uplift in funding that has been provided by the Government to Leicestershire County Council.

Campaigners have been calling for a change to the 24-week threshold for years to better support families who experience the heartbreak of baby loss. As a government, we are not only listening to those calls but scrapping the threshold altogether.
Losing a pregnancy at any stage is heartbreaking, extending bereavement leave will allow more families to take the time off work that they need to grieve.

Really enjoyed being at the Ashby Show today, a great showcase of our local farming community.
Good to catch up with the NFU and local farmers about many different topics impacting our rural community.
Nice to catch up with Cllr Damilola Ojuri too who was in attendance as the Mayor of Ashby. 
A big thank you to everyone who helped make the show such a success! ... See MoreSee Less

Following my recent visit to Ibstock Bowling Club for the Big Bowls Weekend and to support fundraising for Sands United FC Ashby, I asked the Leader of the House to consider allowing time for a debate on the impact of baby loss and the support available for those affected.
