Get in your armchair and take to the skies

Blade 1

Get ready to get in your armchair and take to the skies. On Saturday 28th May, the Armchair Airshow will return, once again bringing the thrill of aviation to screens everywhere.

Brought to you by the disabled flying charity, Aerobility, viewers will receive unique access to pilots, aircraft and air-display. 

Featuring world class formation display team, The Blades, aircraft from Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar and many more the show will be raising funds in support of disabled flying, whilst taking those who tune-in on a journey from Kent, to the Scottish Lakes and beyond.

Mike Miller-Smith, CEO at the charity said “Having developed the Armchair Airshow in response to the pandemic, it has taken-on its own life and embedded itself in the national airshow calendar. With support from organisations such as Aerobytes, London Biggin Hill Airport and the Department for Transport, the show continues to grow every year, providing inspiration, through aviation to the tens of thousands of people that tune-in. We could not do it without the amazing support of aviation community. We cannot thank them enough.

“To watch the show, simply head to www.ArmchairAirshow.com on the 28th May. We hope as many people as possible will tune-in and support the charity, we promise it will be worth it.”

David Winstanley, CEO at London Biggin Hill Airport said “We are delighted to once again be supporting the Armchair Airshow. This online event, broadcast from Biggin Hill, will bring you the thrill of aviation via incredible, unique exclusives that are only possible at a virtual airshow. We urge the entire aviation community to watch the show and support the charity. Every penny they raise, changes lives through aviation.”

Hello Readers,𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗜𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗟𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗲.Spring has finally sprung and summer fayres and festival season will soon be upon us.

There’s still time to get tickets to this months Abingdon Air & Country Show - turn to page 15 - and congratulations to our five lucky competition winners from our April competition! I know you’ll enjoy a fabulous day out! Another fun-filled family day out returning on 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 is SydenhamFayre. The long-established event, co-ordinated and run entirely by villagers, raises funds for local groups and causes, supporting schools, community organisations and facilities in the surrounding area. Last year it raised over £9,000 for local causes. The Fayre centres around the picturesque village green from 12:30pm - 4:00pm and this year visitors can enjoy live entertainment, children’s games, a dog show, vintage cars, a BBQ, the tearoom and a huge variety of stalls selling quality gifts and goodies from local producers, plus there’ll be the ever-popular Bottle Tombola, Coconut Shy, Plate Smash, Plant Sale, Bric-A-Brac, Jewellery, Vintage Clothing and Tarot reader. Something else I wanted to draw attention to, after receiving a Press Release from Local home care company, Home Instead (Witney). They recently commissioned a survey of family carers and found 29% of them in Oxfordshire are at breaking point due to feeling highly stressed and isolated. It also concluded that a concerning 64% of them are neglecting their own health and well-being. As a company that supports older people in their own homes, Home Instead sees countless families in a desperate state as they seek to give their loved one the best life possible. If you are one of these people I urge you to reach out to them, or similar local organisations, to help you lighten the load. The full press release can be found on my website (here: https://shorturl.at/glvRX) along with contact information and tips that may help you and your loved ones. Until next month, enjoy reading...𝗢𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗩𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: https://look-localmagazine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/MAY24_Issue138_28pg_WEB.pdf....#whatsgoingoninoxfordshire #looklocalmagazine #advertiselocal #supportsmallbusinessess #smallbusinesssupport #looklocal #smallbusinessesinoxfordshire #looklocalmagazineoxfordshire #localmagazineoxfordshire #oxfordshiremagazine #localmagazine #supportlocalbusiness #supportlocalbusinesses #supportlocal ...
