For around 10,000 older people in Oxfordshire, the bus isn’t just transport — it’s a chance for human connection.

Connection doesn’t need to be big to matter.

This , could you make time for one meaningful connection? Why not try to start a conversation the next time you’re on a bus?

SPONSOR OUR RUNNING TEAM!!

These lovely people might not look like the most likely team, but they have more in common than you’d think…. Not only are they all volunteers at Thame Senior Friendship Centre, and all residents of Thame for 16 years or more, but they all have links to Chinnor RFC Thame and will all be running the CPM Thame 10k in aid of Thame Senior Friendship Centre and the Memories Café Thame this month.

Mike, former Chinnor rugby player, has kept up his fitness and is the only member of the team who has run the Thame 10K before.

Hope is also keen a rugby player and enjoys martial arts to a high level. She believes her youth and fitness will see her through her first 10K run.

Ann has no sporting background whatsoever! She started running less than a year ago, has now joined Thame Runners and will be running the 10K for the first time.

Thame Senior Friendship Centre, which celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, is proud to support older and isolated people in Thame. It provides positive places for older people seeking companionship and stimulation. The Friendship Centre offers a whole day out including hot lunch, while the Memories Café provides support for those with dementia and their carers.
Mike, Hope and Ann would be grateful for any sponsorship, all of which will go directly to the charity. Thank you for your support!

THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!

Today we celebrated Volunteers' Week with afternoon tea for all our volunteers at the Mercure Thame Lambert Hotel. It was their turn to sit down and relax rather than doing all the hard work!

The Friendship Centre and the Memories Café Thame would not be what it is without our volunteers. With them they are warm, happy and inclusive places where people want to spend time, and where they feel happy and supported. That's what we are all about, so volunteers, please don't stop what you are doing!

💙❤️💙

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUE! 🥳🎂🥂

We were delighted to make just a little bit of fuss of Sue our cook who has a significant birthday today... She has been providing lunches at our Friendship Centre for many years, firstly at Thame Community Hospital, and now at the Thame Cricket Club. Thank you Sue for being such a constant smiling face at the centre, holding us all together. You are so well loved by staff, volunteers and members! Have a very very happy birthday!
