Joe’s Jog 2023 family fun run

RUNNERS OF all ages and abilities once again turned out in force to run the annual Joe’s Jog 2023 family fun run mile in Rothley village.

Joe’s Jog is now in its eighth year and attracted 410 runners, raising £1942 to support the ongoing work of the Joe Humphries Memorial Trust (JHMT).

The inclusive and family-friendly fun run gives families and children aged seven and over the chance to be part of the Rothley 10k evening. It also raises awareness of the vital work of the JHMT.

HAMBLETON BAKERY opened a new shop on Woodgate, Rothley, in June.

The shop sells bread, cakes and savouries.

Hambleton Bakery has grown to supply six Hambleton Bakery shops, Hambleton Hall, Harts Nottingham, many farm shops and delis across the surrounding counties as well as restaurants, gastro pubs and artisan cafes.

Hambletons use stoneground flour in their bread whenever possible, to retain the vitamins and minerals contained in the germ. Many of their loaves use sourdough culture (developed from wild yeast) for a longer and slower fermentation and when they do use Bakers’ yeast, long fermentations are still employed.

The opening times are Monday - Saturday 8am - 5pm.
