Cllr Matt Binley, the council’s executive member for highways, travel and assets, said: “We are delighted to be able to offer free parking in Kettering and Corby on Saturdays in the lead up to Christmas.

"It has been a difficult couple of years for businesses and we hope that by offering free parking, footfall will be boosted along our high streets.”

Parking is free all year in NNC council-owned car parks in the former Wellingborough and East Northants areas.
