Community and voluntary transport schemes supplement the public transport network by offering services tailored to the needs of people who may have difficulty in using - or are unable to use - ordinary buses and trains to undertake journeys others normally take for granted.

Most services operate on an as and when required basis and have to be booked in advance. They are there to help the community and are not operated for profit, though there will be a charge for using the service.

Anstey Computers is a new business venture run by local resident Joel Spencer. Having gained years of experience in the computing industry Joel is now providing a service to help home users and small businesses get the best from their PC’s.

Joel says, “I’ve always been asked to fix problems for neighbours and friends and came to realise that many people with computers don’t always have the expertise to solve things themselves. A PC or laptop is still a fairly expensive household item and so it’s important to make full use of it.”

With superfast (8Mb) broadband available to most of the area Joel would like to see as many people as possible get maximum benefit from all that the Internet has to offer. “My customers range from young students to 90 year olds and the worldwide web gives them all so much to enrich their lives. It’s hard to think of a hobby, interest or activity that doesn’t become a much better experience with a PC connected to the Internet.”

For more information on the services that Joel provides you can visit the Anstey Computers website at www.ansteycomputers.co.uk.

Getting in touch with Joel couldn’t be easier, simply call on 0116 235 6414 or alternatively 07873 302 442. For those of you who are already on the Internet and would prefer to email you can do so by sending an email to help@ansteycomputers.co.uk.

Bradgate Lions Club supporting ( Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance)
The Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance (DLRAA) will be launched in April 2008 to provide an emergency medical service for the East Midlands. Prior to this, the region had relied on older, slower aircraft with limited space for onboard patient treatment. The new service will move the emphasis from transporting casualties to hospital, to recognising the need to get Doctors and paramedics to the scene of incidents as quickly as possible, providing lifesaving treatment and medication at the scene and en-route to hospital. The new Augusta 109 helicopter can be airborne within 45 seconds of the crew receiving a call, will be quicker, bigger and can be operated for longer flying hours. From its base it will take just five minutes to reach Leicester Royal Infirmary and 14 minutes to get to Derbyshire Royal Infirmary.
The Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance (DLRAA) will be funded entirely by voluntary donations. They will receive no assistance from Government or the National Lottery. So it will depend on a major fund-raising boost to buy it and keep it in the air. Fundraisers must raise £300,000 in five months and then £1.5m each year. Help Bradgate Lions Club to help them, you never know who will need it next.

River Nene provide a range of veg boxes from £7.90 - £14.95 The contents change weekly and are seasonal. We look after you from beginning to end and are your direct link to the farms, with a personal touch. We work as part of a co operative group to look after customers for the farms in the area we live. The Castor farm is approx.30 miles from Leicester so the produce is local. Orders can be taken on-line, by email or phone which ever you are more comfortable with. We aim to provide quality produce from the River Nene farms where 75 percent of the produce in the boxes is grown. This allows us to know about the produce, as we order the seed, grow it to maturity, and aim to bring it to your door the day after picking. We do not have a market stall for this reason. We prefer the produce to continue in the ground or on the plant growing till harvest and then as quickly as possible out to the customer. As much as possible when sourcing produce from outside the farm - to enable variety - we look first to other organic producers in the East Midlands, and then further afield. Produce when brought in from Europe or further is never air freighted.
Telephone 0116 267 2222 or 0845 786868 for more information or to order. If you don't have Internet access we can telephone you with the box contents.
During the summer months we provide farm tours, places need to be booked but are free of charge.See the website for details
