Spring & Summer News - 2026

First thing this morning we got the news that Kegworth Heritage Centre has been awarded Full Accreditation status by the Arts Council England.

This is a huge milestone for us and is a fantastic achievement given our small size and limited budget. And all the more amazing when you consider that this time three years ago we were closed and the future looked even bleaker than the weather. It is a testament to what an amazing group of dedicated volunteers can achieve!

April 2026 - Kegworth Primary School Visit to KHC


Last week we were absolutely delighted to welcome over thirty pupils from Kegworth Primary School for their first visit in over seven years.

There were three groups of 4-5 year olds, accompanied by members of staff, and they were an absolute delight. It was so wonderful to hear the whoops of joy when they found pictures in the treasure hunt or dinosaurs in the "archeology pits".

We hope this is the start of a blossoming new relationship with one of our nearest neighbours! If other local schools are interested in visiting please contact us!
