Beautiful day for Ride and Stride supporting the Rutland churches

The Rutland Fairtade Christmas Market is TODAY, Saturday, at Oakhan Castle. The weather forecast looks good all day. Come along from 10am to 3pm and buy gifts that make a difference. Or just come and enjoy beautiful Oakham Castle, off the Market Place in Oakham. #Oakham

Made my first visit to the @LandsEnd outlet shop in #Oakham today after hearing about it on @RutStamSound. The friendly staff went into the warehouse to fetch my purchases. More satisfying than online shopping. They have a great cafe too!

Annas Hope 5K Fun Run — Great Eastern Run - 13th October 2024
Sign up now for the Anna's Hope Fun Run in Peterborough on 13 October. Great to see the Anna's Hope team at Park Run this morning. Such a worthy cause.

End of the summer for Stamford in Bloom's chairs. They really add to the appearance of the town.

A fairer voting system will help to make people feel that their vote matters. Personally, I support the reforms proposed by the Jenkins Commission in 1998, retaining the constituency system, while introducing an element of proportionality. #DoorstepDemand @MakeVotesMatter

Loving the new Deposit Return Scheme in Ireland. Such a sensible way to improve recycling and reduce litter. When will we have one in the UK @stevebarclay? #plasticfree

Another impressive display from Stamford Flower Club, for Mother's Day.

Help stop the Gaza nightmare now @RishiSunak. Every day the horror continues, the more difficult it will be to find a viable long term solution that delivers peace to everyone in the region. CEASEFIRE NOW.

[Save the Children UK @savechildrenuk]

The nightmare for Gaza’s children is getting worse, but the UK government's failure to call for a ceasefire makes it complicit in the horrors unfolding in Gaza.

We cannot stand by. Share this post to tell @RishiSunak to demand a #CeasefireNOW.

[Ketton Climate Action @KettonClimate]

A reminder that volunteers are wanted to help with tree planting this weekend, on Saturday and Sunday at Lower Braceborough Wood, 10am to 3pm both days. And more tree planting on Sunday in Ketton. Meet at KSCC in Pit Lane. Please bring a spade if you can, and gloves.

[David Lewis 💙 @LewisDavid109]

[David Lewis 💙 @LewisDavid109]

I am enjoying the fabulous new Sunday night Musical Theatre show on @RutStamSound . 6pm to 7pm with lots of local content between the Weat End hits!

I have recently returned from a walking holiday in Italy. There were water fountains everywhere. Let's hope @StamfordTC can organise one in Stamford soon. #reducewaste
