Five Go On A Bike Ride for DSO

She wanted to do a sponsored bike ride to raise money for Down's Syndrome Oxford - this is the organisation that Hannah, her sister, has benefitted so much from. When her cousins heard of this idea they all wanted to join in.

Primary Club
The Primary Club is a way to extend the friendship and support that we as parents had found through the early development groups and toddler mornings. It seems that as soon as our little ones are in school there is little time to get together and share our knowledge and experiences. We meet at least every two months on a Saturday or Sunday.
