Barwell Parish Council

Barwell Parish Council would like to thank everyone who attended their VE 80th anniversary beacon lighting in Kirkby Park last night. It wasn’t the warmest of evenings but plenty of you came along to support.

In Kirkby Park the Council are pleased to have installed a autistic/less abled bodied swing for inclusivity in their park.

Easter Eggstravaganzer event on Saturday 19th April 2025. Come along and enjoy the hunt. Find a Duck and claim a chocolate egg

Not content with chopping a tree down in Kirkby Park they have now sawn a bench in Barwell (Tip) Park. If anyone has any information please do get in touch with the Parish Council or the Police. This is mindless vandalism and should not be tolerated.

Thankyou to everyone who came to our Barwell By The Sea event on Saturday. Special thanks to Wheatleys event catering and amusements, stall holders who attended, our amazing facepainter who was kept busy all day and Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service at least it didn’t rain.

Barwell Cemetery Groundsman’s Shed was broken into last night – if anyone noticed anything please contact the Parish Office. Thankfully nothing was taken but significant damage was done to the roof and toilets. This incident has been reported to the Police.
