North Bucks Breathe Easy Group AGM Report 2025/2026
We have held regular monthly meetings with a variety of events and speakers during the year.
Sadly we lost Audrey Walker earlier this year, her smile will be greatly missed
Speakers last year included Al’s Pals, Baby Basics, LEAP, Age UK, and the Fire Service. We also had a visit from the Swan Practice Care and Support Team. The Health and Wellbeing Coach from 3W Health was unable to attend her session (but I think everyone enjoyed the impromptu quiz), we will try and get her along next year
Last May we enjoyed Lunch at the Old Thatch and I for one am looking forward to going again this May (next month)
In August we enjoyed a sunny (with occasional shower) day on the Canal at Campbell Park, with a Cream Tea
This year we will visit Stowe House School for a tour followed by Tea/Coffee and Cake
Ideas for next year please, or we can book another canal cruise
Attached to this report you will find our accounts for the year, prepared by our Treasurer Christine and reviewed by Jose thanks go to both of them We have a Bank Balance of £1,610.09. Slightly up on last year thanks to an unexpected donation from our local Masons
