Combatting loneliness with Omega

You may recall a number of weeks ago we embarked on a project with Omega to support their ‘pupil pals’ initiative. Many of our children have created cards. Omega will send them to people who would not ordinarily receive cards for personal special occasions, in an effort to combat loneliness.

Thank you to everyone who supported this cause.

The lead organisers are the Tern Valley Vintage Tractors organisation, but there are a number of local organisations involved. Sir Heber Percy is opening the event at 11am.
