Celebrating sport and fitness through the ages

This month, we marked National Fitness Day with something a little different. We were delighted to welcome Sonia from the Oxford County Museum Service, who brought along some fascinating historical sporting objects for us to explore. 

The afternoon was made even more special by our residents’ own stories and memories. Charlie shared his memory of seeing the legendary Roger Bannister running in Oxford, and Valarie sparked a great discussion about the history of tennis skirts!

It was truly the perfect mix of history, memories, and movement; a joyful celebration of how sport has brought people together across generations.
