January Blues offered, for three days a week at the Bennochy:Methven Hall, a &#8216;warm space&#8217; for anyone to enjoy social contact, play boardgames or jigsaws or just relax with a hot drink or a bowl of hot soup. There was background music and some people even brought along their own instrument! (see below). Cosy knitted blankets and wheatbags were also available. It was well timed as early January was very cold! We had 50 visits over the month and the blankets left over were donated to the hospice and Abbeyfield Home.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized has-custom-border\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"654\" src=\"https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250121_120644-1024x654.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"has-border-color has-theme-palette-3-border-color wp-image-2784\" style=\"border-width:7px;width:350px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250121_120644-1024x654.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250121_120644-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250121_120644-768x490.jpg 768w, https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250121_120644-1536x980.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20250121_120644-2048x1307.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">January Blues Banner (Jan 2025)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized has-custom-border\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);margin-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"492\" height=\"560\" src=\"https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/blues.jpg\" alt=\"Enjoying the January Blues events at Bennochy\" class=\"has-border-color has-theme-palette-3-border-color wp-image-2549\" style=\"border-width:6px;width:350px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/blues.jpg 492w, https:\/\/langtouncentralchurch.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/blues-264x300.jpg 264w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 492px) 100vw, 492px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The January Blues with Entertainment!
