The 'STUTE' - Anniversary - - Today is

The Stute

The Social Institute was founded at the end of the 19th century to cater for the social needs of the young men of Earl Shilton.
Reconstituted in 1977 as a charity, it now serves as a social centre for the whole village and the surrounding area.

The society has now reached a remarkable point in its history.
The Management Committee is actively arranging functions to mark this important occasion.

The first celebration was a great success!
On Tuesday 16th June a highly entertaining evening was provided my Mark Selby, the renowned snooker player, or as he is affectionately known 'The Jester from Leicester'.   Details

A second successful celebration!
An Open Weekend & Exhibition was held on Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th of September.  Details

And a successful Bring & Buy Sale.  Details
With a last chance to view the 100th Exhibition on 9th October.


This year, 2009, marks the 100th Anniversary of the present building.

The building shortly after construction in 1909. The building as it appears now in 2009.

Apart from the camera angle and the recent addition of a ramped access, little has changed to the external view of the building.
However, there have been significant improvements to the internal arrangements, especially since the adoption of the charity status in 1977, and since then a continual programme of development of the many facilities currently on offer.
