The Home Farm Trust from Milton Heights were selling plants, and things. They have the red banner which says:HFT Supporting People with Learning Disabilities www.hft.org.uk

Their website says “We have a great respect for the individual and we work hard to provide services which not only offer quality care and support but which strive to bring out the best in each person because everyone has something special and unique to offer.”

This shows people browsing their bric-a-brac stall. In the background is a Tombola.

At the same time the Abingdon Concert Band were performing an outdoor concert. The Abingdon Concert Band has been active in the Abingdon area for over 20 years. It was originally called the Abingdon Military Band, and was founded by a number of ex-service bandsmen. Their membership is open to players of a suitable standard, and they play varied music, not just marches, which is why they got renamed.

And here and there came visitors to Abingdon – people passing through on this Saturday – the first great migration of the school holidays. These teenagers with Ruck-sacks are outside Glendales on West St Helen Street.
