The community that plays together ...

... stays together. How true that seems after a big bash for Andrew's birthday. What a great night! Young and old together, strutting their funky stuff or not, but enjoying each other's company and shouting hoarsely to make themselves heard above the wonderful band and a well-considered disco.

Bishops Offley is a special place - you'll hear that from many in the community. And the reason? It's simply that the majority of people in the community closely knit without being in each other's pockets. We play. We care. We enjoy. We mourn. We try. Sometimes we succeed. But most of all, we do it together.

So, when all the rest of the guests had mostly left that party, who were left, still dancing, still chatting, still smiling? The Bishops Offley contingent, of course!


P.S. Well done Anne and Andrew!
