Thank you to everyone who attended our Easter services, it was wonderful to have so many people celebrating with us! If you enjoyed our services, we look forward to seeing you again soon.

This past weekend highlighted the strong sense of community at the club, with members coming together not only to enjoy the game but also to learn valuable life-saving skills.

Spring has definitely sprung here in Smeeton Westerby. Our ‘Bridge 67’ held their wonderful ‘Farm Open Day’on Saturday 21 March. Over 1000 people visited to learn about all of the hard work that goes into rearing such fit and healthy cattle, sheep and pigs in order to put great quality food onto the table. 

Remembering Dave Stanford, who passed away on 11 March at Glenfield Hospital, Leicester.

We are ready for Summer Season!

Dates for this summer’s Welcome Kitchen events

We are building a list of all those who have volunteered with The Kibworth & District Chronicle since it's inception in 1978.

Kings Head, Smeeton Westerby has won as overall ‘Pub of the Year’ by ‘CAMRA.’  Well done to Edd and Andrew!

Residents on the Cuckoo Drive development recently received a letter outlining a proposed  building plan for Manor Oaks Homes on Warwick Road, bordering the railway line, opposite Churchill Road / Kibworth Meadows. This would cover approximately 81 acres of green fertile land with a possible access from Wistow Road or Warwick Road. This would be a mixed scheme of approximately 550 dwellings and a space for a primary school.

Well deserved congratulations goes to Debbie James who owns and runs Kibworth Books on the High Street. She recently become President of the Independent Booksellers Association. (Second left in the picture below)
