Are you watching the BBC television series ‘The Mirror and The Light’, the third part of Hilary Mantel’s epic story Wof Hall? In this production Mark Rylance gives an imaculate nuanced performance as the ever thoughtful Thomas Cromwell. It is interesting to note that Cromwell, who with his son Gregory have a strong connection to Leicestershire especially with nearby Launde Abbey.

As we come to the end of the year in the library, we are watching our exciting new extension at Kibworth Community Hub take shape at pace. It’s not long since the first spade went into the ground, and we’re thinking already about decorating.

As the festive season approaches, the Kibworth crew is once again embracing the Christmas spirit and is thrilled to announce that Santa and Rudolph will join them for a special tour of the village on Monday 23 December,continuing our jolly annual tradition. The festive parade to raise much needed funds for local charities will start from Kibworth Fire Station at 1800hrs, and we warmly invite you and your family to join in the fun. Whether you walk alongside the crew or cheer from the sidelines, your participation is greatlyencouraged! With a busy few weeks ahead, Rudolph and Santa may need a few mince pies and carrots to keep their energy levels up for the journey. Full route details will be shared closer to the date on the Station’s Facebook page.

Here at Last Minute Theatre, we're gearing up for our next production: PANTO!

On Friday 15 November Kilby Get To Know Your Neighbours held their annual skittles night at The Conservative Club in Wigston. Thirty people enjoyed a very lively evening. Thanks go to Kathy Kilsby for organising the event and everyone who helped on the night. A raffle raised £82 which was given to Kilby Woodland Trust. The winner of the men’s team was Peter Parsons and Kathy Kilsby had the highest score on the lady’s team. We would like to thank the staff at The Conservative Club for their help and for providing a lovely supper.

If you love cheese, pop the date in your diary now. Our fabulous cheese festival is returning bigger and better this year at a new venue, Kibworth Community Hub (formerly Kibworth Grammar School Hall).
