Tackling health inequalities – summary of our webinar
At our webinar in September, Public Health Oxfordshire explained their approach to tackling health inequalities.
For some people in Oxfordshire, this winter will bring a stark choice between heating and eating. We are partnering with Oxfordshire County Council to make urgent grants available to charitable organisations already working to tackle the crisis. If you can help, now is the time to step up and give.
OCF is delighted to have awarded grants totalling over £21,000 from the Sir George Earle Benevolent Fund. These grants are enabling local organisations to support older people and reduce loneliness or isolation.
We asked our network of charity contacts what the biggest issues are for Oxfordshire communities in the cost-of-living crisis, and what type of activities need funding support. We have used the responses to design a round of funding opening next week.
OCF’s trustees are delighted to announce the appointment of our new CEO, Zoe Sprigings, who will be taking up post in late October. Until then, longstanding senior staff member Annette Ahern will be taking up the post of Interim CEO.
