Thame Town Council grant helps local nursery

In 2017, Lord Williams's School Day Nursery applied for a Town Council grant, as part of our annual Grant Aid scheme, to fund a new race track for their nursery garden and were successful in their application. Last month, the Mayor of Thame, Cllr Tom Wyse, (pictured above) went along to visit the new track.

A nursery spokeswoman said: "Due to the generosity of our wonderful families supporting various events throughout the year, combined with the unexpected generous grant from Thame Town Council and Asda's green token giving scheme, we have at last been able to install an amazing resource for our children, a track in the garden. We can barely keep them in now!" The race track is complete with mini bikes and the garden has been adapted to create a sensory tunnel and adult-led activity area through up-cycling materials.

If you run an organisation or group that works for the benefit of Thame and its residents, then you could be eligible for a grant from Thame Town Council. The 2018 Grant Aid scheme opens a week on Monday (26 March). Take a look at our website for more information at www.thametowncouncil.gov.uk/grant-aid.

You are warmly invited to attend Death Cafe in Thame. at 7:30pm in room 1 of the Barns Centre, and held on the third Thursday of each month thereafter A Death Cafe is an informal gathering where people can discuss death over tea and cake. We’re aiming to normalise the topic of death, raise acceptance, and help people make the most of their lives by breaking the taboo around mortality. It is not a grief support group or counselling session. These sessions have no agenda, objectives, or themes, allowing for organic, group-directed conversations about anything related to death, from end-of-life planning to fears and feelings, fostering open sharing in a respectful, confidential space. Death Cafe is run on a not-for-profit basis but if you are able to make…
