Kibworth Beauchamp Parish Council for March 2021

 26th April 2021 | Councils

However we have movewd this meeting to Tuesday 4 May. This is because of the uncertainty about holding face to face public meetings in a safe environment.  The agenda and Zoom joining instructions will be published on our website and the notice board on High Street.

County Council--Gartree News.

 21st February 2021 | Coronavirus, Councils

I have been looking at the numbers and rates per 100,000 daily for the  Kibworth and Great Glen Middle layer Super  Output Area (MSOA) since mid October.  There was an unexpected spike in the  numbers for this MSOA for the 7 days to 23  January. The increase in case numbers continued for a few days. Case numbers rose  from 26 (rate of 239.2) to 54 (rate of 445.5)  over a 4 day period. I was alerted to a possible  outbreak and contacted the Director of Public  Health over the weekend. He was able to  confirm that 35 people (23 residents and 12  staff) had indeed tested positive at a local care  home. The residents had been offered vaccinations prior to the regular testing process giving the positive results. The majority were  asymptomatic. I understand relatives were  informed as a matter of course.
