Latest community event in Wantage

We hosted the latest community event in Wantage on Wednesday 11th September.

The event was held at the Down to Earth Café, Stirling Close, which if you did not know serves the most amazing freshly baked cakes, enjoyed by many attending the event.

A good mix of local residents attended and we had a lot of great conversations. Other local organisations including Shared Lives, Carers Oxfordshire, and the October Club were there on the day to share what they do, and the County Council spoke to people about what they like and would like from the council services.

I received some wonderful feedback after the event which was all very positive, adding to the sense of a worthwhile and well-pitched event. Thank you to all those that came along, those who had information for residents, and to Kate and her fantastic team for the refreshments.

The next Community Event will be taking place in Watchfield at the Carers Community VoWH session on 20th November.
