On 24 March, three members of the Easy Riders set off with two van loads of donations of aid. This included over £3500 of aid for the refugee crisis on the Poland and Ukraine border.  On arriving at the town of Zamosc, contact was made with a local group who had converted a large house to accommodate 40 Ukrainians.  Over the next two days, Keith Low, Simon Hargreaves, and Mark Evans, together with fellow driver Ben Poulter, bought two months’ worth of shopping for the group and a freezer to keep the food in.

“There is no such thing as a child who hates to read; there are only children who have not found the right book.” – Frank Serafini

The ribbon has been cut on the revamped Central England Co-op store in Kibworth. It has been transformed with a major investment to create a more modern and sustainable local community food store. Its transformation has created a contemporary store to meet the shopping needs of customers and members.

The Platinum Jubilee Orchard, which is near Kibworth Primary School on Warwick Park, consists of 33 trees, all of which are varieties of Apple originating during the reign of the Queen.

A reader has pointed us to the Historic England website which has just released a series of aerial photographs. One of them is the centre of Kibworth taken in 1927. It is probably best viewed on a large screen.
