Speeding in North Luffenham
One of the recurring topics highlighted to the Parish Council is the issue of vehicles speeding in the village environs.
The Parish Council is working on this problem in several ways:
- Requesting Rutland County Council to reduce the speed limit on Edith Weston road from 40 mph to 30 mph
- Considering the Installation of warning speed signs similar to those used in Edith Weston & South Luffenham (potentially with the facility to count the number of vehicles exceeding the limit)
- Requesting Rutland County Council to reduce the speed limit on Station Road from 60mph to 40 mph
These activities are dependent on factors such as agreement from Rutland County Council, and funding.
One “self help” action the village could undertake without any dependency on other organisations would be to set up a Community Speed Watch organisation.
This would enable members of the village population to be trained in the use of a speed gun, and the loan of a calibrated speed gun for a specific period of time.
The idea is that the trained village volunteers can use the speed gun to check the speeds of vehicles within the village over a period of time, and report details of vehicles found to be over the relevant limit to the Police. The Police will then potentially send letters to the drivers of the vehicles warning them that they were observed exceeding the speed limit.
In order to start a scheme such as this, proof is needed that at least 20% of the village population support the suggestion for the scheme, and between 6 and 16 people are willing to actively participate in the vehicle checks. 20% of the North Luffenham population would be 130 people.
I would like to gauge the level of interest in such a scheme for North Luffenham – as speeding is a recurring topic, I’m assuming people would be all for it 🙂
If you think its something worth pursuing, could you please email me at pete.burrows@northluffenham.com – if it looks like we can hit the target of 130 people supporting a scheme, we can start the process of registering, gathering the formal interest documents from the people who are interested, and look to have the scheme implemented this year.
More information on the scheme can be found here:
January talk from Charley Streather (Blesma)
Members and visitors had a very interesting evening hearing how Charley set up photography courses and trips for Army veterans. He told some amusing anecdotes on how the amputees overcome their disabilities to become great photographers. What amazing people and it was very evident that Charley gained a lot of satisfaction from his very worthwhile job. Many thanks to him and we hope that he will return to the club again. (www.blesma/photography.org)
The next meeting is on March 7th (please note change of usual evening) when Hazel Burnham will give us an insight into how she uses her camera to have fun with her artwork.
The theme for photographs at this meeting is “New Life” – very topical for these next months.

Love and Mercy
Just to remind you that these damp and gloomy January days can be cheered up next Wednesday (13/01/16) by coming along to the Town Hall to watch Love & Mercy. For those who might think this is mainly a vehicle for some great Beach Boys tracks, do have a look at our excellent website (uppinghamfilms.co.uk) to view the trailer and you will see that there is a strong dramatic element to be found as well. It has had some brilliant reviews. As ever, the doors will be open from 7pm with the film starting at 7.30 and we shall look forward to greeting you and wishing you a slightly belated happy New Year. As always, bring a bottle and a cushion and anything else that makes the evening fun. We shall do some home-baked nibbles as ever.
Just in case I get sidetracked by sunshine next month (hurrah!), I’ll mention now that we will be showing Suffragette on Feb 10th. I saw it last week and thought it was really excellent. March 9th will be Brooklyn – again, great reviews – and then on April we are not, as a one off, able to have the Town Hall on the second Wednesday of the month so will instead be showing the wonderful Lady in the Van on April 6th (the 1st Wednesday). All dates for your 2016 diaries.

North Luffenham ballerina on front of “Rutland Living”
“Residents of North Luffenham will recently have received their copy of RUTLAND LIVING. The front cover of that Magazine shows Nicky Morris (of North Luffenham) leading her dance class and the article inside headed “Silver Swans” tells of the excellent work she has done in bringing ballet / dance to the more mature ladies. Nicky is a highly talented ballerina and is now making dance available to a wider audience. We in North Luffenham should be very proud of her”
