Partner organisations

ORCC is able to significantly increase both the effectiveness of its own work and the scope of services delivered to rural communities in Oxfordshire through involvement in a wide range of partnerships and networks.

ORCC has particularly close working relationships with the organisations listed below. Each is an independent organisation, but are based at ORCC's office at Jericho Farm.

Oxfordshire Playing Fields Association (OPFA)

OPFA's aim is to ensure that people of all ages, including people with disabilities, have access to good quality local outdoor sport and local recreational facilities, including children's play. For further information: www.opfa.org.uk.

Trust for Oxfordshire’s Environment Limited (TOE2)

TOE2 is a new charity established by ORCC to drive and support community environmental initiatives in Oxfordshire. Building on the work of its predecessor TOE, TOE2 will provide advice and funding for communities wishing to deliver real improvements and positive lasting change in 3 key areas –
