Rutland and Stamford Sound will be joining the Rural Coffee Connect Van in Ridlington on Wednesday 18 September. They often do these pop-up radio events together. If you are not familiar with Rutland and Stamford Sound, they are a not-for-profit community radio station, led my Station Manager Rob Persani.
They will be erecting a gazebo outside the Village Hall which will be manned by a few volunteers in attendance and Rob Persani will be there, presenting some of his morning show live from Ridlington. They will be there from 10:00 – 12:30.
On the day, Rob Persani will be happy to chat to anyone who has news to share. If anyone in Ridlington would like to talk about any upcoming events or activities, this will be an ideal opportunity to come along.

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland has opened a Police and Crime Plan Survey to receive residents views on policing and community safety priorities and the ways these can be addressed.
The survey can be accessed via this link https://leics.pcc.police.uk/Have-Your-Say/Consultations/Police-and-Crime-Plan-Survey-2024.aspx or via the Police and Crime Commissioner’s website.
Part of Brooke Road in Oakham is to close from Monday 22 July to Friday 11 October 2024, so that work on a nearby housing development can take place safely.
The closure will be put in place between the junctions of Derwent Drive and Cricket Lawns, across the Brooke Road railway crossing. Traffic will be diverted via Welland Way, Balmoral Road, Braunston Road and Oakham High Street, for the duration of the closure.
The works themselves will involve widening the highway to improve traffic flow along the closed section of road, as well as creating a new entrance to the Brooke Road Allotments Development site.
The road will be closed on both sides of the railway line, to comply with Network Rail. Vehicle and pedestrian access for houses within the limits of the closure will be maintained at all times. It will not be possible to cross the Brook Road level crossing by vehicle or on foot.

Please find below the minutes for the Extraordinary Parish Council Meeting that was held in the Village Hall on June 24th 2004.
These can also be found on the website under the heading Agenda, Minutes and Accounts.
The meeting was called to review and discuss the planning application for change of use at Wills Farm. It was felt strongly by those members of the public speaking at the meeting that the application was inappropriate as it will lead to a significant impact not only on the volume of traffic coming into the village but its type. It was felt that as the roads leading to the village and within it are narrow and that, as there are very few passing spaces on Holygate Road, there will be an increased risk to safety of other road users, walkers, cyclists and horse riders.
For the above reasons the Parish Council determined to object to the planning application.
What can you do? Lodge your own objection. Go onto the Rutland County Council website (www.rutland.gov.uk), click on Search for Planning Applications, enter Will’s Farm in the keyword box and it will bring up planning application 2024/0618/FUL. Click on it and complete the form to object. You may find the attached highways report for a different planning matter of assistance.
