  • An excellent look at life in Leamington in very edible bite-size chunks.

    Tim has chosen an eclectic mix of features of Leamington that those of us who live here take for granted or walk past every day without noticing or realising. He takes a look behind-the-scenes to interview the people who make those things happen.

    Tim’s very personable manner and interview style, without being obsequious, draws out details and is very informative in an enjoyable way.

    Keep up the good work Tim.

Art in the Park 2026
Q: What's new or different about Art in the Park 2026?
Kate highlights access to the Glass House, a full day of youth theatre, a new parade element, the expansion across three parks, and ongoing free admission funded by Arts Council support and donations.
Canalside Community Food
Q: I've not come across a community supported agricultural scheme before, Ali. Could you just perhaps explain what that is?
CSA means members commit to the farm, share the rewards in terms of a weekly share of produce, and also share the risks; it's a model built on community investment in local food production and mutual benefit.

Q: Are the walks challenging for casual walkers?
Not really; the routes are flat and designed as gentle strolls suitable for most fitness levels.

They can expect a 90-minute tour guided by an experienced guide with knowledge of the town, small group sizes of 10-15, and a focus on history and architecture that visitors often don't realize they are looking at.
