Adderbury History Association – 20 July
Neil Wilson will give a talk in The Institute on Oxfordshire Emigrants who were on the Cataraqui in1845. Doors open at 7.15 pm and the talk starts at 7.30 pm. This tragic story tells how the poor were ‘encouraged’ to emigrate in the 19th century and the fate of the 400, many from Oxfordshire, who endured the journey on the Cataraqui — only to be shipwrecked one day from its destination of Melbourne, leaving just nine survivors. Visitors welcome at £5.00.
We have a few spaces in Cubs and Scouts. If you would like to have a free trial session, please reserve your place by sending an email to Cubs – Zoe Lee
We meet in Church House on the first and second Tuesday of each month from 2.00 pm to 4.00 pm. New people are always welcome, some to learn to knit if wished. We have kindly donated wool and would like to see it made into blankets and garments. These we give to charity and one donation was to the Salvation Army which they gave to people in England. We really do produce a lot of items in spite of plenty of ‘natter’ and laughter over our cups of tea. It is a fun afternoon so do come along. Go to

This is a new friendly club which you can join and is active throughout the year in the fresh air and is run by a group of villagers who believe in reducing traffic noise and nuisance so that all may enjoy the unique character and peaceful atmosphere in Adderbury. Speeding traffic is a danger to our children, pets, and wildlife, as well as being a source of irritating noise pollution for many living along our main routes. The speed limits are there for a reason, we want to remind everyone to stick to them.
