Government Minister Visits Project

Recently promoted cabinet minister Nicky Morgan took time from her busy schedule to visit the project and learn about our plans to create a community heritage centre for the villages of Mountsorrel and Rothley.

Nicky took time to understand the benefits the heritage centre and other elements of the scheme will bring. She also viewed the restoration work the volunteers have undertaken on the Mountsorrel Railway and toured the Nunckley Trail, which has been created by community volunteers and school children.

Nicky commented that she found the scheme "inspiring" and was particularly impressed by the project's commitment to being as inclusive as possible for visitors with disabilities and how the project has brought our local communities together.

Nicky has pledge her full support and looks forward to seeing the project progress over the coming months.
