Peace and tranquility is being offered in the middle of a busy afternoon.

The Baha'i religious community in Abingdon has organised three tranquility sessions for this Saturday afternoon.

Anyone is welcome to the sessions which are at 2.30pm, 3.30pm and 4.30pm at St Ethelwald's House, 30 East St Helen's Street.

Organiser Hugh Fixsen said: "We would welcome people to the sessions but ask them to be there promptly - we do not want interruptions once they have started."

Each will last 30 minutes in a room with candles, flowers and music and members of the local Baha'i community will be there to help,

At 6pm there will be a party celebrating the goup's founder, Baha'u'llah, and again anyone is welcome to be present.
