For at least the last 40 years Kibworth has enjoyed a spectacular fireworks display. This involves a huge amount of effort and planning from the Kibworth & Fleckney Rotary Club and the Kibworth Scouts & Guides. Of course, it wouldn’t be possible without the support from the Briggs Family. They loan the field and build the bonfire.

Come and join me at the Kibworth Late Night Christmas Shopping Event. I’ll be in the Village Hall with a stand selling homemade bakes and second-hand books in aid of children’s charity Youth Sport Trust (YST).

It was with deep regret that we had to cancel our ABBA night in October. This was due to circumstances beyond our control and we apologise for any inconvenience. We are hoping to re-schedule this event in the spring.

Leicestershire Wildlife Hospital will be holding a Christmas table top sale and coffee morning on Saturday 9 December in Kibworth Village Hall LE8 0LN from 10am until 12.45.

The Well is a charity set up some years ago by St Wilfrid’s and the Methodist Churches to help meet the needs of people in the village. It began with a small café and pre-loved clothes shop. Expanded since to include a food bank and to provide or to signpost people, irrespective of their colour, sexual orientation or religious belief, to any advice or assistance they might need.

In this month's article, the focus is on our food bank. For those of you that don’t know, our food bank ‘popped-up’ during the first lockdown of the pandemic. Remember that?! 

It’s been a very busy time out in the fields as farmers work all hours to bring in the harvest, for which we give thanks. Apparently, it’s a very good year for pumpkins due to the wet summer. Every cloud...?
