The alternate weekly collection of refuse and recycling is bedding in after just two months. The new rounds are working well. Blaby are one of the last councils in the country to go fortnightly. This has been caused by the loss of £500,000 from central government.

After a postponement due to the early spring rainfall, Leicester Huncote Hornets, the BMX club based at Blaby District Council’s Pavilion Leisure Centre, will host the final rounds of the British Cycling National BMX Race Series.

Riders aged from 6 years old, to World Championship and Olympic-standard will be competing. A further two more were fined for collar and tag offences: - A Leicester lady, was ordered to pay £1,004 after her two terrier cross dogs were collected in Leicester Forest East on 31 May 2018. After failing to enter a plea she was fined £440 for each dog and was ordered to pay costs of £80 and a £44 victim surcharge. A Glenfield man was ordered to pay £322 after his Patterdale Terrier was picked up on 21 May 2018 in Glenfield. He pleaded guilty and was fined £152, with costs of £140 and a £30 victim surcharge. The Control of Dogs Order (1992) says that a dog in a public place must wear a collar bearing the name and address (including postcode) of the owner engraved or written on it or engraved on a tag. Under the law Blaby District Council has no option to offer a fixed penalty notice, with all cases being prosecuted at a Magistrates’ Court. Tags can be bought and engraved from as little as £2.50 online, or from pet shops across the local area. In Blaby District Council area, it is an offence not to carry a ‘poo’ bag when walking your dog.

  • LEICESTERSHIRE ORIENTEERING CLUB Permanent Orienteering Course Fosse Meadows, Sharnford
    LEICESTERSHIRE ORIENTEERING CLUB Permanent Orienteering Course Fosse Meadows, Sharnford Fosse Meadows Nature Park lies off the old Fosse Way (Roman Road) to the east of Sharnford. The park is managed by Blaby District Council. The 57 Ha park was formerly farmland but several areas have been planted with blocks of trees. Some of these blocks are now mature enough to be used for orienteering and together with the other more open areas of the park they provide a reasonable challenge, particularly for less experienced orienteers. The stream running along the east side of the map is the River Soar, not far from its source. This is Leicestershire’s longest river and eventually joins the River Trent in the north of the county. Getting there The permanent orienteering courses start and finish at the car park on the old Fosse Way at Grid Ref SP489909. This cul-de-sac section of the Fosse Way is only accessible from the north. You can use the following links to other maps which allow you to zoom in or out.
