Well what can I say, my dream has become a reality. My name is Donna and I am the owner of Artisan Fayre in Kibworth, Leicestershire, and I love colour, up-cycling and re-cycling and for most of my life I have always had a creative flair.

When you think of Texas you probably imagine oil rigs, cattle drives and cowboy hats, not birds. But Southern Texas is one of the top birding spots in the world due to its sub-tropical weather and mild winters.

Following our disaster with the fireworks last year, and cancellation after Storm Babet and storm Ciaran flooded the field, and the losses that impacted on the Rotary Club members, the club has decided to move venues to Kibworth Golf Club. We take this opportunity to thank David Briggs for the use of his field and assistance with the bonfire over many years.

Several people have approached The Kibworth & District Chronicle to ascertain exactly what is happening to the fenced-off cob wall opposite the Co-op. The pavement has been unusable for several months now. 

The Kibworth & District Chronicle has been advised from the acting estate agents, TDB Real Estate, that the first two units, namely unit A and unit B, of the Clowes Developments at Beauchamp Business Park, Wistow Road, Kibworth, LE8 0RX have been sold to Oadby based, family run business, Hammond Grange Ltd who will be letting out these work/warehousing spaces in due course. The units are ready for immediate occupation.

We hope you all enjoyed your summer, all your donations and hard work to help GEMS Charity raise the funds to refurbish the chemotherapy treatment area at the LRI have been turned into work over the summer. So just a quick update for you all.

The Summer Reading Challenge finished on Saturday 7 September and two lucky medal winners won a fantastic goody-bag each, very generously donated by Debbie at Kibworth Books. Huge congratulations to Ellie and Toby!

A few of our residents use wheelchairs and walking aids to get about the village.
