Following on from the editorial comment in the January edition of the Kibworth & District Chronicle about volunteering, which quite rightly highlighted the importance of voluntary groups in our community. Volunteers are a vital part of society giving their time and effort to provide service, education and entertainment.

January and February are traditionally quiet times for the band with their thoughts and efforts concentrated on the Area Contest, which this year is back in the Civic Centre, Bedworth on Saturday 8 March.

The Kibworth Art Lovers Society has been taking a winter break from meetings, but its members have not been idle. Residents using or passing by the Kibworth branch of the Market Harborough Building Society during December may have noticed on the display wall, a large artistic Christmas wreath, created by our committee members.

It was a packed house at Kibworth Grammar School Hall / Kibworth Community Hub in January. Kibworth & District u3a Chairman, Chris Bradburn, welcomed 105 members and 6 visitors to the u3a Annual General Meeting.

In the vein of the classic ‘Twelve Angry Men’... A juror for a high-profile murder trial finds himself struggling with a serious moral dilemma that could influence the verdict and potentially convict, or free, the wrong killer.

Good progress is being made with the development work for the Community Hub with the library extension close to completion.

Dear Editor

A Season of Celebration and a New Year of Renewal

The final meeting of the year was a festive occasion filled with holiday spirit and creativity. On our arrival the tables were set with an array of greenery, a candle and a florist’s tray. Each member eagerly set to work applying their floral skills to arrange the materials in a way that reflected their personal style.

Happy New Year to everyone from Kibworth & District u3a.
