January 2012 - Building Circles enjoyed its largest gathering ever, with seventy people coming to our social event in Warden Hill.  Focus people, volunteers, families and carers enjoyed socialising over lunch, and were entertained by balloon-making and conjuring tricks in the afternoon.

December 2011 - We were delighted when Martin Horwood, Liberal Democrat MP for Cheltenham, chose to highlight the work of Building Circles in Gloucestershire this Christmas, through his Christmas card.  Three focus people worked together to make a lovely design for the front.  Inside the card, Martin Horwood wrote "Building Circles in Gloucestershire isn't the best-known charity in Cheltenham - but I've seen their unique work first hand and they really deserve your support this Christmas if you have a bit to spare.  People with learning disabilities and their carers will be very grateful".
