Community Comment

Tom Taylor - Hinckley  "Many thanks in bringing so much local information into one site, it really does make searching the web easier, used your directory a number of time for local services - just a pity more businesses don't use you - great resource"

Shelly  Hardwick - Mkt Bosworth  "Just wanted to say thank you so much for your support when our much loved cat Sam recently went missing, your understanding and support during a difficult time was much appreciated - long may you continue"

Colin Green - Earl Shilton "Well as they say I've tried the rest but this is the best, certain other 'local' sites are hardly ever updated, whereas Hinckley Info seems to have a constant stream of information - brilliant job"

John Weston - Burbage "Congratulations Mark, this is by far the best community site I have seen for Burbage that really lets me know all I need to about my area - keep up the very good work"

Jane Moore - Hinckley "Wow! - someone told me how good the site was but I refused to believe them, having looked for myself I can say to anyone else it's the best of all the other websites covering Hinckley - well done" 

Stewart Rathbone - Burbage "Fantastic site. It's refreshing to see a local site run by local people. Keep up the good work"
