## Resource

A massive 825-home development is set to transform farmland west of New Lubbesthorpe in Leicestershire, with Hallam Land Ltd proposing a full community hub including a new primary school, sports fields, shops, and 25% affordable housing — plus homes tailored for older residents. Designed to tackle regional housing shortages and boost Leicester’s capacity, the plan envisions a sustainable, inclusive neighborhood where living, learning, and recreation converge. The Blaby District Council is now reviewing the application — a decision that could reshape the area’s future. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
