We would like to thank all of the Kegworth Villagers and Businesses who co operated with patience and understanding especially when dealing with the massive inconvenience of road closures and limited parking. Your support has not gone unnoticed and we had an outpouring of gratitude and love for Kegworth from our guests.The Church Service was uplifting and moving and well received by all the guests. Thank you to Rev'd Lauretta Wilson, Rev'd Martin Charles, Paul Philips, Rev'd John Simms, Rev'd Roy Monks, Father Gary and all the clergy who played a part in this. Also to the Ushers who did an impeccable job.There was an army of volunteers who either helped on the lead up to the Day, behind the scenes, on the Day itself or throughout, including from East Midlands Airport, Leicestershire County Council, North West Leicestershire District Council, Trent Barton Buses, First Responders and Castle Donington Volunteer Service for their loan of 2 buses.We would also like to thank Julie Cooke of Folwells and volunteers from Kegworth Village Hall & Committee, Kegworth Plan Group, Kegworth Community Library, Kegworth Women's Institute, Soar Valley Twinning Association and community members including Christina Sharp, Vicky Pettitt, Geoff Donoghue, Chris Donoghue, Kate Hooper; Kathy Hayes; Chrissy Shaw, Sheila Hawksworth, Margaret Thompson, David Hayes and Fred Thompson.Stuart Cox, David Buxton and Jan Barrowcliffe all made special efforts to ensure that the Village and Cemetery looked its finest for the Day.Apologies if I have missed anyone, but finally, I wish to thank all of the Kegworth Parish Council volunteers and Vicky Roe, the Clerk, for all their support and hard work. . . and of course, all of our guests for attending on the Day.To see some of the lovely comments made by guests who attended the Event please click on the link below.This really was a Community Effort - Thank you.
