This morning at St Ethelwold’s House, East St Helen Street, Abingdon, there was the first Communi-tea drop-in. This will be a monthly happening on the second Saturday of the month.

Organised by Emma, from More In Common, and Sue from Host Abingdon, among others, it was a chance to meet, over a cup of tea, people new to Abingdon, some from country’s with conflicts and wars, and some just new to Abingdon.

There were a lot of people there, and everybody was welcomed by one of the Abingdon Town Criers, who, on this occasion, had somebody to translate.
