At Kibworth Creatives Choir we have been busy practising for our very first public performance at the Kibworth Late Night Shopping event. What a terrific turnout!

The Remembrance Day Service, led by Ludger Fremmer, from outside St Wilfrids Church on Sunday 14 was extremely well attended. Possibly up to a 1,000 people came together and lined the street.

Firstly, Kibworth Station would like to thank everyone who donated to our recent charity event challenge to climb to the summit of Mount Snowdon in fire kit. The current total is a huge £3718. The challenge was taken to raise money for local charity The Well, along with The Firefighters Charity both of which do amazing work.

The Kid Collective has arrived in Kibworth! We are an independent toy and gift retailer based locally and have been selling online for over three years. We are excited to bring our products to life in a pop-up shop that is full of wonderful toys waiting to be discovered. You can find us on Station Street in Kibworth until 23 December.

Why do companies hide the truth about their activities?

Tackling climate change, conserving our heritage, and keeping people safe are just some of the priorities set out in a major new blueprint. Coming out in November, residents will get the chance to have their say in the refreshed strategic plan.

Would you like to sing with a friendly, non-judgemental all inclusive group? Join us singing for pleasure in Kibworth.

Restoration work on the Kibworth Windmill has continued throughout the last month despite some heavy rain and strong winds. Most of the work to repair the bottom of the main post has been completed. Work has started on parts of the upper levels. New sails and steps are being made at the Bristol workshop of the millwrights, Dorothea Restorations. They will not be brought to Kibworth until all the other work has been completed.

Could I say a huge thankyou to all the generous people who supported our Macmillan Coffee Morning in Shangton on Saturday 25 September.

Like a number of venues, Kibworth Village Hall are really pleased to be open again, and welcoming back all our usual hirers. We are extremely sorry to see the Village Hall Pre-School close after 51 years. I’m sure that countless Kibworthians and their children and grand-children will have enjoyed their time at the Village Hall Pre-School. All our best wishes go to Sue, Jackie and Jean and all their staff in whatever they choose to do next.
