We are building a list of all those who have volunteered with The Kibworth & District Chronicle since it's inception in 1978.

Kibworth Mill will be open on Saturday 19 September / Sunday 20 September.

The Kibworth Art Lovers finished the 2024/25 programme with a meeting in June led by Professional Artist, Barbara Hatton. Barbara was one of the first members of our society and it was good to welcome her back to show, and talk about, her colourful abstract paintings. 

With the school holidays coming to an end and the familiar routines of everyday life returning, now is the perfect time to start thinking about you again.

Most moths have an English name and a Latin name; the latter based on scientific classification. This month’s subject has an extra English name so it is known as Small Mottled Willow, Beet Armyworm or Spodoptera exigua. Its larvae, an agricultural pest, have also been given a name ‘asparagus fern caterpillars’ and other less polite names by growers. Some of our moths are very colourful and photogenic. This species is unspectacular in appearance but readily identified by the pale brown spot on its otherwise grey wings.

A charity event for Rainbows and our local Air Ambulance service.
