Dear Editor

We, at the Kibworth Community Hub, would like to extend our congratulations to the members of Last Minute Theatre Company for their recent pantomime, Robin Hood. This was an inclusive, community show in every sense of the word, well done to all involved.

After Christmas, I’d like to reflect on recent events in our village. We held a successful Christmas Fayre with lively chatter and laughter. The following Wednesday, Helen Benton, our village Pilates teacher, organised a well-attended ‘LOROS’ Coffee morning, raising another £500 for a deserving charity. This added to the £200 raised from CoCo mornings and £300 from the Christmas Fayre.
