Amongst other organisations, we support

The North Oxfordshire Community Foodbank - which is a voluntary group formed by members of local Christian churches. The aim is to provide food parcels to people within the Kidlington, Woodstock, Chipping Norton and Charlbury area. The parcels contain essential food for individuals and families in case of emergency, covering the time it takes for other social care infrastructure to come into play. Members of the congregation regularly contribute items for the food parcels, and use an NOCF Nectar card to earn points for buying other necessary supplies. See www.northoxfordshirecommunityfoodbank.org.uk

The Gatehouse - a drop-in cafe for the homeless and poorly housed, situated in central Oxford. Along with members of St Mary's Kidlington we provide sandwiches, cakes, fruit and other food items on a regular basis, as well as supporting their administration and fund-raising activities.
