Kibworth Tennis Club has a new club kit for 2024. A big thanks to the continued support from our club sponsor ‘Town & Country Veterinary Centre,’ based in Market Harborough, who make a significant contribution to the cost of the kit. Thanks to our models for showing off the new hoodie!

It’s been a quiet start to the year for Fleckney and Kibworth Running Club. Members have been attending club nights through the cold and wet weather every Tuesday and Thursday. 

Leicestershire Wildlife Hospital will be holding an Indoor Car Boot Sale in the Kibworth Community Hub, School Road LE8 0JE Kibworth, on Saturday 16 March from 10am until 1.45pm.

Our Third Tuesday Social speaker this month, Andy Wright, will talk all about The Well, the local Kibworth charity shop and café.

With so many events happening in Smeeton Westerby over the Christmas period, we ended up with a relaxing and quiet January. However, The Kings Head came up trumps with their Burns’ Night Supper on Thursday 25 January where a three course meal was served, the main dish naturally being haggis, neeps and tatties with whisky sauce. There was a variety of whiskies to wash everything down with. Not surprisingly, a great time was had by all.

Once again we are looking forward to welcoming you into the calving and lambing sheds at our annual open day, on Saturday 23 March Binleys Bridge Farm, Debdale Lane, Smeeton Westerby, LE8 0QD. Come down to the farm between 11am – 5pm to see the cows calving and sheep lambing. We will hopefully have a few pigs for you to see too.
