❤️ Giving Back to Our Community ❤️
​We're excited to announce we're running another collection for the amazing Witney and Oxfordshire Foodbank! They are in constant need of essential items, especially as we head into the colder months.
​Look for the big, bright red post box 📮 in our reception area.
​Please donate if you can! Let's fill up that box and make a real difference to families across Oxfordshire.
​Thank you for your generosity!

Rummikub Rookie No More! 🥳
​So proud of Dave this afternoon! We spent a good chunk of time teaching him the rules of Rummikub, and he's only played a couple of times, but he's already picking it up so well! 🤯
​We started with the basics of forming melds (sets of the same number) and runs (consecutive numbers of the same color), and he was quickly strategizing how to use the Jokers and manipulate the existing tiles on the table.
​Watch out, everyone—we've got a new Rummikub challenger on our hands! Time to start practicing your table moves! 😉

🥄✨ We officially kicked off the festive season today with Stir-up Sunday! ✨🥄
​The kitchen smells incredible! Everyone had their turn giving the Christmas pudding a good stir and, of course, making a secret wish!
​Now for the waiting game... Patience is a virtue, right? 😉

We had a wonderfully cozy and low-key day! Started off with a fun, friendly game of Qwirkle this morning.
This afternoon, we settled in to watch the 1994 adaptation of Little Women (Winona Ryder, Christian Bale, Susan Sarandon)—what an absolutely wonderful and touching film! A perfect way to spend the day. ❤️
