This year, Leicestershire and Rutland Wildlife Trust celebrates seven decades of Nature Recovery across Leicestershire and Rutland, five decades of Rutland Water Nature Reserve, and three decades of Ospreys reintroduced to Rutland. This milestone triple anniversary provides a moment to reflect upon the conservation progress made so far. But also the work still to be done, to ensure the wildlife of our two counties flourishes and remains. Special anniversary events are taking place throughout 2026 and we invite everyone to join the celebrations.

For a century, CPRE has shaped the countryside we know today. From campaigning for the first Green Belts and National Parks to protecting hedgerows and dark skies and stopping fracking.

In the heart of our village is our shop that does much more than sell clothes. Our pre-loved clothing boutique is a key part of our charity, and every item donated or purchased plays a vital role in keeping our doors open.

There will be a good variety of stalls including homemade wooden goods, craft stalls, handmade cards, jewellery, Tropic skin care products, knitted & crochet goods, including lots of assorted homemade items, jigsaws  books, pre-loved clothes, raffle and lots more.

After a very successful year 2024-2025 we were able to present three local charities with a substantial amount of money to help with their much needed work.

As we step into the New Year, everyone at our charity would like to wish our community a very happy and healthy 2026. We hope you all enjoyed a peaceful and restful Christmas break with family, friends and loved ones.

Leicestershire Wildlife Hospital will be holding a tabletop sale on Saturday 14 February in Kibworth Village Hall, LE8 0LN. 10am - 12.45.

As the festive season approaches, streets sparkle with lights, homes fill with laughter and the air hums with anticipation. 

It is with great regret, we have to inform you that from 31 March 2026 the charity, Kibworth Grammar School Hall (also known as Kibworth Community Hub, charity number 1044822) will be dissolved and the lease handed back to Kibworth Beauchamp Parish Council.
