On Sunday 13th July, the return of the ever-popular Ashby Show saw visitors from the local area and across the country flock to Cattows Farm, Leicestershire, for a brilliant day showcasing the best local businesses, food, agriculture and crafts have to offer.

Mayor of Ashby, Damilola Ojuri enjoyed the day, saying: "This year was my first time attending the Ashby Show, and I was absolutely blown away by the incredible effort that went into organizing such an event.

"From the thrilling high-fall stunts performed by the stunt team on their bikes to the elegant horse show jumping and their talented riders every moment was full of excitement and admiration. Including the Grand Parade, with beautifully decorated horses. 

"I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the show and found myself reluctant to leave after such a memorable day. A big thank you to everyone involved in making the event so special!"
