Ashby Tourist Information Centre


Ashby Tourist Information Centre has been closed by North West Leics District Council and after a sustained campaign they have now engaged in discussions with Ashby Town Council and the BID team to provide some sort of Town Information Centre.


It is to be hoped that by Christmas we should have a facility up and running although it may be run by volunteers and on a part time arrangement. We are still involved in negotiations and will keep members informed of any outcome.
