One of the most popular events in our fundraising calendar, Sarsden Glebe Open Gardens, hosted by Amanda and Rupert Ponsonby allows us to meet many of our local supporters while serving teas and cakes in a beautiful setting. Our team of talented bakers, who unfailingly deliver the most delicious cakes, never disappoint and we receive many compliments about the quality of the refreshments

Churchill Car Show has supported our work in the OX7 community since 2016 and were delighted to have been invited to be involved again for the Super Cars themed event in June 2024. The Thrive team will be at the gates to greet visitors on admission and run our ever-popular tombola stall for those who enjoy a little flutter.

One chilly evening in December 2018, the Thrive team set out their wares in Chipping Norton for the Christmas Fair. In 2022, the organisers nominated Thrive OX7 as their charitable beneficiary. The snowy weather created a very festive event and our stall featured tombola items plus matches donated by our friends at Archivist Gallery and scented candles from Cotswold Candle Co.

With expert tuition from local floral artist Lucy Phillips, Thrive supporters have created festive wreaths to be proud of. These evenings would not be the success they are without the support of some amazing local businesses, Beehive Home and Hedges Law.
