Tyranny of the Mind


A village in Leicestershire and in the heart of the National Forest, overlooking Thornton Reservoir.

A couple of hours a month to spare?
Why not come along and join the trustees looking after the village community centre?
It is not an onerous position and there is plenty of support from the other trustees. We are gradually upgrading the facilities at the centre for the benefit of all the community but could do with some help and some fresh ideas.
We also have an events sub committee who are trying to bring new and varied events to the hall and we too are in need of helpers in the kitchen/on the door/putting out the furniture etc.
Why not become involved – it is a great way to secure the future of the best amenity in the village and make new friends along the way.

The Beer & Gin Music Festival will be back at the Thornton Club over the weekend of Fri, Sat and Sun (30th, 31st Aug and 1st Sept). Bands booked so far include RockSka, Punk & Disorderly, The Travelling Riverside Blues band and Eddy Hall.
More details to follow.
