band concerts to celebrate their 60th Anniversaries.
This event will raise funds for the Horton General Hospital’s Brodey
Cancer Resource Centre Appeal and The Oxfordshire Cheshire Home
at Agnes Court, Banbury.
Broughton Castle is again the spectacular backdrop for our week-end
of open-air concerts where you can picnic and dance the night away
as we bring you two fantastic nights of nostalgia.
On Saturday 19th July, we recreate two of the most successful
band of all time ABBA and QUEEN, plus Dave Dixon’ tribute to Elvis
Presley so get out those old flares and jump suits.
On Sunday 20th July, we bring you a completely different type
of concert featuring the John Miller Orchestra, the nephew of the
legendary Glenn Miller. The band will be joined on stage by Fiona
Paige singing some of the most famous songs of the era.
Why not get IN THE MOOD and come dressed for the part?
Both of the concerts will end with a spectacular fireworks display

DO YOU HAVE ANY
GOOD QUALITY FURNITURE YOU NO LONGER NEED?
Currently at Blessed George Napier School we are refurbishing the
interior to improve the learning environment for our pupils and create
better facilities for the local community to use.
We do not have funding for new buildings so we are trying to make
the most of our existing accommodation.
We are very interested in any business which might, as part of a rolling
renewal programme, have any upholstered office or reception chairs
in good condition that may be suitable for our Sixth Form study area
and Library and melamine topped tables for Art rooms.
You may also have other items that might be very useful to us.
Please email me if you are able to help.
Thank you.

Friends of O.S.C.A.R.
- Personal Leadership and Influence Programme
You will have previously known us as OSCAR, which is still an Oxford
focused charity. Friends of OSCAR is a new charity which has been
established to deliver the same levels of support and services to
children and their families regardless of location. DDA Consulting
have kindly offered to run one of their highly appraised training
courses at cost with all proceeds going to the Oxfordshire based Children's
Charity Friends of OSCAR.
I have personally attended the 3-Day off-site Personal Leadership
& Influence training course which I found to be considerable fun,
tiring and very motivational. The pre-requisites are for people to
complete both a Belbin and Meyers Briggs questionnaire which is used
on the course through a series of activities and discussion sessions
to improve your knowledge of yourself and others and how to better
use that knowledge to improve performance of both yourself and the
team. I am hoping to be able to find 12 delegates to attend this training
course and hope that you will be interested in supporting this initiative.
If you are interested please contact me on either mobile 07764 359366
or richard.miall@oracle.com

Outstanding projects
list Costings 2007 Bwengu Village North Malawi
Sue and Tony gave a touching and thought provoking presentation about
the education project they have undertaken in Bwengu Malawi. The level
of basic need was extraordinary. The impact Sue and Tony have made
with their very sparse financial resources but immense commitment,
motivation and patience was equally extraordinary. The contrast between
the excesses most of us are about to indulge in and the needs of the
children and the teachers was stark. Happily Sue & Tony were blown
away by the response of members of the club. Not only did we raise
the most money I can remember tipping out of the Bob Geldorf (nearly
£400.00) but many members made very valuable pledges of time/skills,
money, invitations to speak and materials. Sue & Tony have sent details
of their current project and their needs (see attached) so there is
still an opportunity to support 2 very brave and determined individuals
and staff and children in Bwengu. Many thanks to all of you who have
already been very generous. This is truly a project for which every
£1.00 counts, all the money is spent on those who need it most and
the results change lives. Sue & Tony have promised to come back and
up date us on their work so hopefully they will be able to show the
real progress they have made and exactly what the results of our contributions/help
have been. - For the full list - Click Here.
