Oli Babington
Oli, who had been running The Bell with Sharon for almost 7 years, died very suddenly on Tuesday September 11th aged 38. Oli and his family has been part of the Chearsley community for many years, attending Chearsley school and then returning as Landlord of The Bell. In this role, he has been at the heart of many village celebrations and activities, known to almost all villagers who are all shocked and saddened at his early death. Our hearts, prayers and love go out to Sharon and their two boys, Harry and Charlie, knowing that the love and care of their close family and friends is there to help and support them.
