Leicestershire County Council Community Speedwatch Pledge of Support
Sheepy Parish Council have applied to take part in this years Community Speedwatch Scheme, for us to be accepted onto this scheme we require a pledge of support from at least 200 parishioners and need to have in place at least 6 volunteers who will help us run the scheme.
The Parish Council will be loaned a speed detection device to undertake its own traffic monitoring. The details of vehicles caught speeding will be passed on to the Police, who will consider sending a letter to the registered keeper explaining the purpose of the project. This is an opportunity for the community to help itself in dealing with the problem of speeding. If you would like to support this project, please complete and submit the form below including your contact details if you wish to volunteer.

Rupert Matthews Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire met with Julie our Sheepy Tree Warden on the 12th May 2022 and planted a tree in Sheepy Glade as part of the National Trust’s campaign; ‘Plant a Tree for the Jubilee’.
The tree planted is a James Grieve (Malus) apple tree. James Grieve is an old variety of apple. It gets its name from its breeder, James Grieve, who raised the apple from pollination of a Pott’s Seedling or a Cox’s Orange Pippin apple in Edinburgh, Scotland some time before 1893. (Malus are small to medium –sized deciduous trees with showy pretty flowers in Spring and edible fruit in Autumn.)
