It's still that time of year....are you thinking about decluttering and having a jolly good clear-out?
Aren't we all!

So much stuff….so little time 🤣

If you need to find a new home for unwanted things just list them on your local freegle community 👉🏼 https://www.ilovefreegle.org/explore

We have around 5 million registered reusers around the UK, join them today to keep stuff in circulation, in use and not being hoarded or in the bin!

The phone box library in South Bar St, near the church, have space for some book donations. 🙂

Bad news for borrowers today at Banbury's Phone-box Library.
(By which I mean people who are hoping to pick up a new book to read, not teeny tiny people using cotton reels as tables and needles as spears)
Good news though for everyone having a sort out today and wondering what to do with all those excellent books that they don't intend to read again. Plenty of space on the shelves here for literary loveliness.
If you're looking for a sign to prompt you to do something nice for others in your community, then here it is.
Strength and love to all.

♥️♥️♥️♥️ REUNITED ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Lola is a medium sized elderly dog with dementia who has gone missing from her home in Mollington

We don’t expect she’ll be too far from home so please keep your eyes out around the area

She can’t travel very far or very fast at 15 and she won’t run from you, but may have got confused about how to get herself home so anyone in the village able to help search undergrowth etc is very much appreciated - please get in touch so this can be coordinated. Nighttime search undertaken but will continue now it’s light

Can you help us go that extra mile? 🚗 🚘
Our Friday Club is short of drivers! We have several members needing transport at the moment. Luckily our amazing Club volunteers have stepped up to fill the gap. However the practicality of that isn't great. It leaves us short for setting up the days activities clearing up. We have 2 local journeys to cover. Adding 2 more drivers to our amazing team will help support our members.
*45p per mile paid, monthly.
*Age 18+ full licence

Please follow the link below to sign up. You can also contact us directly on 01295 264214 for more info.
