Elliott Family Takes Centre Stage at Kibworth Golf Club as Vice Captain Roger Elliott’s Day proved to be a tremendous success, with excellent weather, a superbly presented course and a fantastic turnout.

Holiday Snap, the classic British farcical comedy written by Michael Pertwee and John Chapman, proved to be a huge success with audiences when Main Stage Theatre Company staged the production in May.

On Friday 22 May we invited the Leicester Visually Impaired Bowls Club to play us in a friendly match. This is an established charity providing the visually impaired with the opportunity to get out into the community and take part in a sport which gives enormous health and well-being benefits. A great afternoon’s bowls (and tea and cakes!) was enjoyed by all.

When members arrived for our May meeting the hall was filled with delicious aromas - and that was before cooking was underway! Our speaker Shumaila Saleem explained that she learned to cook the traditional way, from her mother and grandmother, and sees herself as ‘guardian of the recipes’.

Illston Abey Cricket Club hosted recently, on the hottest May Bank Holiday ever, the UK’s largest Orthopaedic Trauma Department to an inter-department T20 cricket match. The NHS team had a great day.

The Kibworth Art Lovers’ annual exhibition was a particularly enjoyable event this year. Not only had our members been preparing their exhibits, but also baking cakes for our café which proved a popular addition to the exhibition. After months of planning and hours of setting up, we were well rewarded with record sales and a record footfall. We had in excess of 300 visitors, over the weekend.
