We’d like to start by thanking Kibworth Beauchamp Parish Council who have allowed our Scout Group to use the old library building by the village roundabout. Whilst we have loved using the Scouts Land this year, the weather is now making it too much of a challenge to be there every week and the use of the old library building provides our young people with a safe space to meet for weekly meetings.

Here at Kibworth Community Hub, we are gearing up for Christmas; at the end of this month, Main Street Theatre Company will be performing their Christmas Show, Rhyme and Treason, a family show that pitches Griselda, Queen of the Night against Glenda, Queen of the Day. 

The monthly public parish council meeting was held on 7 October at 7 pm in the Studio at the Kibworth Community Hub.

I had a lovely walk at Foxton Locks on a sunny afternoon recently, and it made me realise how beautiful our area is and how important it is to take care of it.

No-one living in Kibworth is unaware that the A6 is a very busy road. This is proved time and again when there is any sort of hold up, by the length of the queues which form rapidly.

At the Macmillan Coffee Morning in Mowsley Village Hall on Saturday 27 September we raised a total of £1103.70. I would like to thank all those who helped, all the stall holders and everyone who came and were so generous. It was a lovely morning, enjoyed by all, resulting in a great total. Hope to see you all next year.

Foxton Community Choir’s Christmas concert, ‘A Christmas Sparkle,’ will take place in St Andrew’s Church in Foxton on Friday 12 December at 7:30pm. Rehearsals are well underway for a performance of festive music both traditional and less familiar. The concert coincides with the annual Christmas Tree Festival so the church will also be sparkling! Tickets priced £10 can be obtained by telephoning Gill on 07748 131 512 or Toni on 07944 528 174.

Throughout the season of Autumn, it was amazing to see the most wonderful abundance of fruit laden trees and bushes throughout the village. As a celebration of this, we held a Harvest Supper and Harvest Festival Service. We gave thanks to all those who provide us with our food. Both events were well attended and enjoyed by all who came along.
