🎾 Game, Set, Summer! ☀️

Several of our Central homes across Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire, along with our Extra Care Housing schemes, came together to create a fun video to kick off the summer season and celebrate the arrival of Wimbledon!

The video reflects a volley of collaboration and community across our homes—bringing people together, encouraging wellbeing, and serving joy in these shared moments.
