Gail Seward of Dementia Active said: “We were a packed crowd! I don't think there was even one free seat left in the building!

"It was a vibrant evening, filled with laughter, camaraderie, and spirited competition, and congratulations to the first-place winners on the evening, team Whitley Stimpson.

"A huge thank you to the team at Tibbetts Group Ltd for all your help in organising and also to Banbury Rugby Club for the loan of the building too.”
