It all started withThe Clutter Sale at The Railway which was held in May and was a fantastic success. The road closure didn’t stop the good people of Kibworth and surrounding areas coming down to grab themselves a bargain. Everyone found something they liked, from purchasing a painting of Market Harborough church where a couple got married 25 years ago to children being delighted with becoming new owners of large cuddly toys.

Leicestershire Wildlife Hospital will be holding a Christmas table top sale on Saturday 13 December in Kibworth Village Hall LE8 0LN. From 10am-12.45.

At 5pm on Saturday night, 1 November, everything was ready for our annual bonfire and fireworks. The bonfire had been built with wood from the golf course and numerous pallets collected over the previous weeks. Crowd barriers had been put in place. The Guides, from Kibworth & Fleckney, were organised with their glow sticks, hot dogs and drinks for sale. An array of other hot food and wine & beer were available. Kids fairground rides had also been erected. Bright Spark Firework company had been setting up since late morning. The weather was clear, almost not a cloud in the sky, you could see the stars and the moon was rising, perfect, all we needed was a crowd!

Working in partnership with the South Leicestershire Medical Group, a new employment drop-in is being launched for residents living with a disability or health condition. 

We did it! After being runners up last year, we received the award for 'Voluntary and Community Group of the Year' at the second annual Harborough District Council community awards, in a ceremony held at Lutterworth College on October 9^th 2025.

At the Macmillan Coffee Morning in Mowsley Village Hall on Saturday 27 September we raised a total of £1103.70. I would like to thank all those who helped, all the stall holders and everyone who came and were so generous. It was a lovely morning, enjoyed by all, resulting in a great total. Hope to see you all next year.
