A fond farewell!
AOB is sending a fond farewell to Claire Kellett, who has looked after AOB since May 2017 in her role as Centre Manger.
Claire is moving across to another Oxford Innovation Centre to help mobilise this over the next 12 months.
We are sending Claire all our best wishes and thank you for your love & commitment to AOB over the years.
Good luck, we’ll miss you❣

Ashton Sixth Form College Tour

Down Syndrome Awareness Day
AOB held a cake sale arranged by Natalie, a Bric by Bric colleague of Saffer Cooper…….
All donations were for Down Syndrome Awareness Day. This is officially celebrated on 21st March each year, the date is significant as people with Down Syndrome have 3 copies of chromosome 21- hence 21/3. The day is marked with people wearing odd socks to celebrate individuals who have Down Syndrome and inclusivity (socks were chosen as chromosomes are shaped similarly to socks)
