The town boasts high street brand shops, many independent traders, boutiques and coffee shops. Located adjacent to primary access links further amenities include supermarkets including M & S Simply Food. Popular schooling includes five primary schools, secondaries include Ivanhoe School and, Ashby School with associated sixth form.
