Inland Waterways Association (IWA) Leicestershire Branch are planning to hold a Waterways Festival to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the first Festival of Boats and Arts, which was held at Market Harborough in 1950.

We are delighted to announce that our CoCo mornings have started up again. Held on the third Wednesday of the month between 10.30am and 12.00pm. It was really lovely to see so many people joining us. As the weather improves and we can once again use our beautiful little garden, I am sure we will see many more people from the surrounding villages joining us, either as they take a ‘doggy walking’ stop or just decide to pop in for free refreshments!

Saturday 22 March

One of the most rewarding pastimes is a short amble around a nearby local village. Looking at the various architectural buildings and admiring peoples’ front gardens etc. Luckily for us Harborough have a number of leaflets available which will guide one to see unusual or interesting features that the passing viewer might not notice straightaway.

Kibworth & Fleckney Rotary are hosting a fundraising event featuring two musical groups, the Leicester Grammar School Big Band and Youth Brass 2000 in a concert in St Nicholas Hall, Leicester Grammar School, London Road, Great Glen, LE8 9FL on Friday 21 March at 7pm. Tickets are priced at £12 each and are available from TicketSource.

Our 2025 programme began on 9 January with Ginnette Brookes’s talk: ‘Dance is for Everyone’.

We are very much looking forward to a wonderful concert by The Frontiers Trio, starting at 7pm in the church.

Following on from the editorial comment in the January edition of the Kibworth & District Chronicle about volunteering, which quite rightly highlighted the importance of voluntary groups in our community. Volunteers are a vital part of society giving their time and effort to provide service, education and entertainment.

An Annual Global Event which is prepared each year by a different country selected years in advance.

Billesdon Drama Society’s next play will be ‘The Cemetery Club’, a bittersweet comedy by Ivan Menchell.
