Sadly, the decision by HM Government Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities on building a Super Prison at Gartree has been deferred yet again. The decision is now due to be announced on Wednesday 8 November.

Kibworth Tennis Club has taken steps to ensure their defibrillator is accessible to the local community.

Apart from the odd spell, this summer’s weather has not been very kind to us. Resulting in a lower number of visitors, and not a great many boats. This impacts on many local businesses and services, as ‘the tourists’ have an effect beyond just the Locks.

This year Hallaton Museum is opening its doors to a new exhibition ‘Where there’s a Will, there’s a Way’, an incredible insight to a story which has never been told before.

During the summer months, The Well will continue to offer support to residents of Kibworth and surrounding villages through our free advice drop-ins and food bank.  And of course, our café and pre-loved clothes shop will be open as usual.

We have come to the end of another season of your Kibworth & District Chronicle.  We are taking a two month break now but will return in September. Before we go however we thank the legions of volunteers who write, assemble, read through, take photos, and deliver your Chronicle. Be they old or young, they all deserve a big thank you from the Chairman, Editor and Management Team. So THANK YOU. You are a great team!

Once again cream teas will be available between 3pm and 5pm in St Peter’s at Church Langton commencing Saturday 1 July and then Sunday 2 July and every Sunday until early September.

Kibworth Village Hall committee were pleased to put on afternoon tea for some of our senior residents over the Coronation weekend. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting them, and do hope they enjoyed the event too.

There is, at the time of writing, an advertisement which does not require maths GCSE, witchcraft for young women.
