Here are a few more photos from the evening — the bingo players were clearly taking things very seriously, all hoping to snag one of the brilliant prizes, and Ross looks absolutely delighted with one of them – even though he didn’t win it!
We’re delighted to share that the Cheese & Wine Bingo Night raised £3,431 for Katharine House Hospice and St Etheldreda’s. Thank you once again to everyone who supported the event — your generosity has made a truly meaningful difference.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the Ladies Guild Cheese & Wine Bingo Night on Saturdy in aid of Katharine House Hospice and St Etheldreda’s. What a fabulous evening it turned out to be — around 135 people gathered in the beautiful Hadsham Barn, filling it with laughter, friendly competition, and plenty of cheese-fuelled enthusiasm.
We’d like to give special thanks to The Taylors for providing such a stunning venue, Chipping Norton Events for supplying tables, chairs and glasses, Hornton Pavilion for additional chairs and tables and The Michael Hardinge Trust for crockery and cutlery. A big thank you also goes to Sarah Walther, who generously donated a fantastic pamper hamper as one of the raffle prizes, and to everyone else from the Ladies Guild who contributed items to the raffle — your kindness helped make the night even more exciting.
We still have some donations coming in, so we’ll share the final fundraising total later in the week.
Finally, an enormous thank you to the brilliant team who organised the event — Sarah, Ellie, Carlie, Tracey, Rachel, Fiona and Sandra. Their hard work, creativity and good humour made the evening such a joy for everyone who attended.
What a night — and what a community.

In the last few days there has been an extremely concerning increase in theft from motor vehicles overnight, specifically tools from work vans, around Oxfordshire. Reports thus far number 22 in the last 48 hours.Please consider removing your tools and other valuables from your vans overnight – the offenders appear well practised and vehicle alarms are not being triggered. The offenders are also concealing their identity. If you cannot empty your vans, please consider parking defensively, eg up against a wall, garage, or other vehicles to prevent access to your van.Now would be a good time to make sure any CCTV or video doorbells are charged and operating, but we would rather prevent the offences than be watching the footage of it with you. We know only too well, the impact that this is having on local residents.Please be vigilant and report any suspicious vehicles on 101. Any offences in progress or having just occurred should be reported on 999.A link to our crime prevention advice on our website is below:Keeping vehicles safe | Crime prevention | Thames Valley Police

Just a quick update for the Ukraine Appeal – the situation is grave and they desperately need food – preferably cans of food with a ring pull top that can be heated over a stove.
Also if any of the many medical people in the village have any spare or out of date medical equipment (they will take any equipment, but can’t take drugs), then I have a contact that is taking medical equipment out to Ukraine, please let Sandra know via anyone in the Ladies Guild.
As always any items that you can spare is much appreciated and Rita continues to do great job collecting and taking the items down to the teams central hub.
Items can be left in the box under Rita’s porch – if you don’t know the address please ask anyone in the Ladies Guild, as I don’t want to give out an address on this post
Many thanks, any items, however small will really make a difference.

Come and join us at our village celebration for the Coronation of King Charles.
If you would like to reserve a table for the Coronation Celebrations (you could go up in the morning and set up your own Coronation decorations), then please let Alison Tite, Helen Moss, Tracey Parsons or Sandra Easton know. Who will have the most regal table?
Thanks for everyone’s continued support for the Ukraine, our appeal for warm coats and duvets got an amazing response. They are now looking for just food items, preferably cans of food with a ring pull top that can be heated over a stove.
