Improved digital connectivity for Thame’s Town Centre businesses and residents is long overdue but has proved difficult to provide for multiple technical reasons. The Town, District and County Councils are continuing to work with Teleauora to bring forward a solution that would work for Thame, with a revised proposal expected in the first quarter of 2027.

Have you spotted the poppies around Thame?

For the fourth year running, poppies have been put on display around Thame. Each one represents the 212 names on the War Memorials in Thame and Moreton. You can find the poppies on roads in and around the town centre, and on some roads you’ll find poppies showing the names and the last addresses of the men before they went to war. Every poppy tells a story. If you’re in town this week, take a moment to read some of the names and ages.
