Long Clawson Surgery
Our local doctors' surgery is at Long Clawson. There has been a doctor practicing in Long Clawson for nearly 200 years. There is a team of doctors, district nurses, chiropodists, midwives and psychiatric nurses together with an in-house Pharmacy. The Practice now has a Patient Participation Group and you can find out about it by visiting the surgery website, http://www.lcmp.co.uk which is excellent and updated regularly, please use this for further information.

Update regarding Kinoulton Access from A46
From Jon Gladstone, Chairman Kinoulton Parish Council. Great news on the A46 junction for Kinoulton, the conclusion from the second Public Inquiry is that our direct two-way junction to the Widmerpool roundabout will be built. Click here to find out more.
Something in the water?
One or two village residents have flagged up the taste of the water in Kinoulton, it does seem to have a bit of a taint to it which running the tap doesn't seem to alter. An engineer is visiting on July 16th to look into one villager's complaint about the unpleasant tasting water and I thought it might be useful to see if anyone else has any comments that we can pass on. Please do email me and I'll collate comments and pass them on.
Urgent message from 1st Kinoulton Brownies!
PLEASE HELP US! We are a lively, but very lovely group of 24 Brownies who come from Kinoulton, Hickling, Upper Broughton and Colston Bassett. Our leaders are retiring at the end of July and we really need a couple of people to take over or we can't carry on being a Brownie Pack.
We meet on a Wednesday for an hour and a half and like to play games, make stuff, go for walks in the dark and get muddy in Bluebell Woods. We even cleaned the church yesterday with eco friendly cleaning products that we made ourselves. You might have heard us singing as we walked to the church and back!
Our mums will help you and our leaders will hold your hand until you don't need them anymore. Want to find out more? Please don't hesitate to call Julie Norman on 07837 499204 or Emma Scarborough on 07981 126082 to chat it through.
