Happy New Year

A very Happy New Year to you all!

We have lots of exciting things planned for our 30th Anniversary which we will share with you over the coming weeks.

 

 

We’re on the wagon for January – but we’re not doing it quietly!

Richard and I are giving up alcohol during January and want to use the opportunity to raise money for a local Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centre which benefits many women and men in Oxfordshire, including a very close friend of oursPlease would you visit our fundraising page, Running On Dry for MS, and consider making a donation?

Thanks and Happy 2014 to all!
