North Kesteven District Council is inviting you to help create a visible expression of love in Sleaford by adding the things you love most about the town to the love seat installation at the Riverside Centre.
Throughout February, collect a dedicated tag from the below retailers and write your favourite activity or place, an element of the town’s history and culture, a favourite local shop or business in Sleaford, or as Valentine’s Day approaches maybe a tag for a loved one.
Take a special selfie and share the love on social media using the hashtag #LoveSleaford.
The heart seat will be available every day until February 28 for people to take selfies and leave their tags, and will be lit via LED for timed periods in the evenings as an additional opportunity to enjoy it.
Collect your tags from:
- Sleaford Library
- The Hub

- Lincolnshire Stoves & Fireplaces
- Long Water Construction Supplies
- Spolton Mortgages
- Ruth Burrows Illustration

This project is funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
Mrs Smith's Cottage says #ThanksToYou
The team at Mrs Smith's Cottage are keen to encourage safer cycling as part of our aim to 'Be More Hilda' Hilda Smith led a very simple sustainable lifestyle and we are encouraging our visitors to do the same.
In 2023 they will be launching their brand new Bike Hire offer and as a warm up to that event they are holding a 'Bee Safer Cycling' event from 12-4pm on 25th of March 2023. The event will include local cycling partners Cycle Lincolnshire and Pedal Electric and a variety of fun activities on site.
There will be two led bike rides and a static 'Smoothie Bike' which you can pedal hard to whip up a healthy drink! Lincolnshire Police will be present to give advice on deterring bike thieves and cycle volunteers will be on hand for bike marking.
As a Thank You to all the lottery players who have funded the restoration project there will be free entry with a lottery ticket or scratch card to the cottage on the day of the event.
