🎄✨ CHRISTMAS DAY COMMUNITY DINNER IS BACK IN HENLEY! ✨🎄
After a few years away, we’re thrilled to announce that the much-loved Henley Community Christmas Day Dinner is back — and this year, it’s proudly supported by The Henley Man Club ❤️
For five wonderful years, we’ve opened our doors to those who would otherwise spend Christmas Day alone — sharing food, laughter, and friendship. Now, together with the amazing team at Henley Man Club, we’re bringing it back to make this Christmas one full of warmth, joy, and community spirit.
🎅 What’s Happening:
A full Christmas dinner with all the trimmings, festive music, companionship, and a big helping of Christmas cheer — all completely free for our guests.
📅 When: Christmas Day – Thursday 25th December
📍 Where: Christchurch
🕛 Time: 12:00 - 16:00
If you’re spending Christmas alone, or you know someone who would love some company, you’re warmly invited.
If you’d like to volunteer, donate, or help spread the word, we’d love to hear from you too!
Because no one should spend Christmas Day alone — not in Henley 💛

UK emergency alert test 7 September
A UK-wide emergency alert test will take place on Sunday 7 September 2025 at 3pm.
Mobile phones will emit a loud siren and vibrate - even if they are on silent.
Whilst these alerts aim to protect the public in emergencies, they could put victim-survivors of domestic abuse at risk - especially those who rely on hidden phones as part of their safety plan.
Where possible, please let survivors know they can opt out of this test. Find information on how to disable alerts for safety reasons at Opting out of emergency alerts
