I have just hosted my 20^th coffee morning for the above charity where £847 was raised, which is new record for Mowsley.  This takes the total raised from 2004 to the present to just over £9,000.  However, I feel it is now time to hand over the organisation of this annual event to someone else.

By the time this issue goes to print, we will have enjoyed our Harvest Quiz night. With a tasty supper, followed by delicious homemade desserts and then a fun quiz, this will surely have been the recipe for a great night out.

Leicestershire Wildlife Hospital will be holding a coffee morning and table top sale in Kibworth Village Hall LE8 0LN on Saturday 11 November, 10am -12.45pm.

Looking ahead to the colder autumn and winter days and the serious problems some families face, we’re so fortunate to have agencies coming into The Well café in Kibworth to help people who are struggling to pay their bills and heat their homes. The Foodbank is another great blessing for people who have hit rock bottom.

At 6:45am on Saturday 2 September and following the success of our previous charity climb up Mount Snowdon in 2021, firefighters from Kibworth station took on the even bigger challenge of climbing the highest mountain in the UK, Ben Nevis.

There are some lovely autumn gardens to visit during September and October this year.

I have supported Refuge, a charity supporting women and children who are survivors of domestic abuse since 1982 when I was a social work student and worked in a Women's Aid Refuge.

As I’m writing this, it is unseasonably warm, even though the trees and our gardens are reminding us that autumn is upon us! 

Leicestershire Wildlife Hospital will be holding a Carvery Night and Mini Auction on Thursday 12 October at The Shires Inn, Peatling Parva, LE17 5PU.
