We would like to remind people about the Foxton Comedy Night on Friday 14 February. 

The Foxton Society will be holding a joint event with the Foxton Adventure Scouts on Monday 3 February, 8pm in the Robert Monk Hall. The event will be a talk by Foxton’s very own Jacob Hudson, who, with a fellow explorer, travelled the length of an uncharted Amazon river and picked up two Guinness World records along the way. It promises to be extremely interesting. After the talk, the Foxton Society will hold a very short AGM with nibbles.

Dear Editor

Volunteers at the mill, ably assisted by staff from the SPAB who own the mill, had an enjoyable morning getting into the festive spirit whilst affixing colourful new Christmas lights to the sails. The bright lights were kindly donated by Steven Briggs of the Windmill Farm Park, and can be seen from as far afield as Gumley Top!

Children at Kibworth CE Primary School live out the school value ‘Let Your Light Shine’ in so many ways. Most recently, Sophie, one of the Year 6 children, came up with a fantastic idea!

Thank you to everyone who joined us on Saturday 16 November for our Tree Planting Day. We successfully planted just over 500 hedge whips and saplings. It was fantastic to have so many members of the community join us to take part! Lots of young people took part too, digging holes, planting saplings and installing the guards and spirals. The team at TLR Garden maintenance are completing our biodiversity project and helped us organise this community day, bringing along lots of equipment so the community could take part.
