The aim of the Patient Participation Group (PPG) for SLMG is to help represent views of patients and to develop communication between patients and the practice.

We’re all set for the festive season here at Pennbury Farm.

A Christmas Fair in Gaulby Church on Sunday 11 December from 4pm. Father Christmas will be in attendance and we’ll have stalls, (if anybody would like to hire a stall, then they can get in touch with me), mince pies, mulled wine, a Christmas tombola, home-made Christmas cakes, cheeses and ham and various home made pickles. All very welcome.

Amazingly from an idea proposed in the Editorial of this publication some six weeks ago the pop up, Welcome Kitchen - a meeting place with warmth and food, has already had two successful sessions (Even though it hasn’t been that cold outside!)

It’s now a month since our food bank became a hub of the Trussell Trust’s Leicester South Food Bank.

The Burton Overy Christmas Tree Festival is back. The Festival is celebrating its 21^st year, after a break during the pandemic.

After the success of the first Hallaton Christmas Fair last year, we are delighted to be holding this artisan Christmas Fair again on Saturday 3 December in the Church.

On Sunday 23 October thirty-five neighbours and friends attended a Ploughman’s Lunch at 47 Main Street Kilby.  In the past the village enjoyed a harvest supper at The United Reformed Church on Main Street. Now we no longer have that facility, in order to keep the village together it was decided to have a Ploughman’s Lunch held at the home of John and Anne Emery.  Fortunately, after a very wet start to the day, the sun came out just before noon. Thankfully everyone arrived in sunshine. 

After Remembrance Sunday when members of the Band will be present for the parade, short service and Act of Remembrance, our thoughts will be on the LBBA Contest and, dare I say it, Christmas.
