We are delighted that the Crown Crest appeal has been dismissed by the Planning Inspectorate

He made clear “the harm would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits” something we said from the outset. Thank you to all the residents who have fought this application

Thank you @slbray1 for exploring every avenue in making sure local businesses survive this devastating time

[Stuart Bray 🔶 @slbray1]

Interesting news that @StratfordDC is to look at legally challenging going into tier 3. I’ll be asking @hinckandbos_bc officers to make contact with them with view to supporting this action for our area too. It’ll be devastating for local business

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

I was proud to speak tonight supporting @miketmullaney's motion calling for a pay rise for NHS Nurses. 3 members of my family have put their lives on the line during the Covid-19 pandemic, it's time to repay them with more than claps, medals and pin badges. #FairPayforNursing

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

@miketmullaney Thank you for your support and raising the motion

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

For the 2nd week in a row our MP, Dr Luke Evans has chosen to tow the Tory Party Line rather than protect the most in need. 1st supporting the planning white paper and this week voting against free school meals, a lifeline to the most vulnerable. It’s simple #Bosworthb4Boris

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

Thank you @Hbbc_children I have 3 very happy children eating fruit kebabs and enjoying the crafts from their goodie bags! Keep up the amazing work and see you next week @hinckandbos_bc #summerfun #newboldverdon

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

@Hbbc_children @CllrsNew_Des @HulbertMathew Hello! Can't wait to see you do you have a time and location for Newbold Verdon?

[Hinckley & Bosworth Children and Y.P's Services @Hbbc_children]

Tomorrow Snap Dragon pop ups in Hinckley, starting from 10am come and see us for your free craft bag to do at home 😀

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

As health campion I am pleased to see Hinckley residents have the opportunity to be tested locally from tomorrow. Appointments can be made through https://t.co/kuCWUdEgHb #Covid19uk #testing #StaySafe

I am lucky enough to represent six rural communities whose character and charm is defined by the countryside surrounding them. If we look after it, it will look after us! #Countryside #respectprotectenjoy

[Tim Farron @timfarron]

The Countryside Code of #RespectProtectEnjoy is more relevant today than ever.

If we all follow the code it will help us to preserve our environment, protect our communities and help prevent the spread of the virus.

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

Devastating news to the hundreds of workers potentially effected here in Hinckley. The Government must do more to protect skilled manufacturing jobs here in Hinckley and across the region. #Hinckley #triumph

https://t.co/65fzF7uXOd

[Lib Dems for the Heart of England @lib_heart]

Yet more very concerning news indeed about potential manufacturing job losses here in the #Midlands.
We will be continuing to call on the Government to set up a Midlands Manufacturing Task Force ASAP.
#LibDems

[Michael Mullaney 🔶 @miketmullaney]

This is very concerning Triumph very important employer here in #Hinckley worrying to see threat to many jobs. Government must do all it can to support our essential manufacturing industry https://t.co/Fg5eGrkSPG

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

If your business has suffered due to Covid-19 please look at the @hinckandbos_bc discretionary grants scheme. It is much needed support for smaller businesses in the borough, who have not been eligible for other government schemes. #SmallBusiness

https://t.co/b3FCpEm8zt

[Hinckley & Bosworth BC @hinckandbos_bc]

Do you think your business could be entitied to a discretionary grant due to the coronavirus pandemic? For all the details, eligibity criteria and how to apply visit: https://t.co/YhGHXu636n

Apply from Monday 1 June.

Delighted to see that Self-Employment Income Support will continue for another 3 months. It was inconceivable that it would end when the self-employed add so much, not only economy but to society in general. #arts #actors #selfemployed

[Mark Sheppard-Bools 🔶 @mark_bools]

Pleased to see the Ivanhoe Line has been successful in the Restoring Your Railway Fund. If the route goes ahead it will bring benefits to #Desford and #Hinckley as a whole. We can hope that unlike the electrification of the Midland Mainline this project comes to fruition.#trains
