After six wonderful weeks of exploring Indian culture, food, traditions and friendship, we finished our Global Tables – India journey with a fantastic Week 6 celebration! ❤️

💃🕺 We got everyone moving with a fun-filled Bollywood workout, bringing plenty of laughter, energy and smiles to the room!

👩‍🍳 We also enjoyed some delicious onion bhajis freshly prepared by Shan, a perfect way to round off our Indian food experience! 😋

🌟 A MASSIVE THANK YOU! 🌟

❤️ Sue – for hosting our Global Tables throughout the six weeks and making everyone feel so welcome.

👨‍🍳 David – for all his hard work cooking delicious Indian dishes throughout the entire six-week programme.

👏 Shan, Sue and all our wonderful volunteers – for giving their time, sharing their skills and helping make every week such a success.

❤️ And most importantly, THANK YOU to everyone who attended, visited, participated and embraced the experience!

Global Tables is about so much more than cooking. It’s about bringing people together, celebrating different cultures, learning new skills, making friendships and reducing social isolation. 🌍🤝

Over the past six weeks, we’ve shared food, stories, laughter and some fantastic memories. That’s what community is all about! ❤️

🎡🌟 Introducing the Intact Community Wheel of Fun! 🌟🎡

Something exciting is spinning its way to our social media pages!

Starting next week, we'll be launching our Community Wheel of Fun, a brand-new weekly activity designed to bring people together, start conversations, share some laughs and celebrate everything that makes our community special.

Each week will have a different theme, including:

💙 Community memories
🌿 Nature and wellbeing
🎉 Fun and games
⭐ Community heroes and volunteers

We'll be asking questions, setting challenges, sharing quizzes, giving shout-outs and, of course, spinning the wheel for chances to win fun prizes along the way!

There'll be opportunities to: ✅ Win free brews and treats
✅ Share your stories and memories
✅ Celebrate local heroes
✅ Take part in quizzes and challenges
✅ Connect with others in our community

The best part? Everyone can join in. Whether you're a regular visitor, volunteer, supporter, or simply follow our page, we'd love to hear from you.

So keep an eye on our page, get ready to comment, share and take part, and let's make this a month full of positivity, connection and community spirit.
