A FEW ITEMS FROM US Total referrals to date Let us know what your hopes are for your community! The coronavirus lockdown has created major challenges for people and communities, such as being able to access food and essential items. As the pandemic stretches out, there are other issues that communities will be facing, but there are also opportunities to improve the quality of life in our areas. We are working together with the community to conduct a needs Needs analysis that identifies the concerns and hopes of our communities so we can identify priorities for our work in the future.

GOOD NEWS STORIES Risinghurst Community Association has kicked off a food drive to collect typical food cupboard items and other daily essentials to give back to people in the community who need it most. The RCA are two weeks into the drive and already the community have been very generous in their donations. All donations received are distributed through food banks and the Hub. Shay, from Risinghurst Community Association , said “Although we’re aware that this is a small drop in the ocean, we hope to keep going as long as the community keeps giving. If you’d like to get involved, please bring your donations to the Community Centre, where we have a table to place your items every day between 10am and 6pm. Whether it’s a packet of Jaffa Cakes or a tin of soup, your donations will be sure to put a smile on someone’s face!” We reported in our last newsletter that Barton Community Association, Beautiful Barton, St Mary’s Church, Barton Allotment Association, and Oxford City Council have partnered up to launch three competitions under the banner of ‘Love the Place You Live.’ We’ve had an amazing response so far; the kids' creative competition has already had over ten submissions of fantastic 'Barton Bees'! It’s not too late to take part - you have until Friday 26 June to submit your Bee to be in for a chance of winning a £10 voucher and of course the kudos of the community! Solvita Coker-Shuiab's lovely 'Barton Bee' and friends Head over to the ‘Barton Community’ or ‘Beautiful Barton’ Facebook pages for more details, and to get involved! Headington Market, with support from Headington Action, are providing 25 meals a week for four weeks to the volunteers and staff at Sobell House Hospice to boost morale with a huge thank you! Cari, Headington Market Co-chair, said: "Headington Market are delighted to be able to support the Sobell House, thanks to funding from Headington Action. Even though we've had to suspend our weekly market for the time being, this initiative brings our traders and our local community together. We wanted to give something back to the staff at the hospice during these very difficult times, as they are working so hard to support the wider Oxfordshire community." FROM LOCALITY HUB TO FOOD DISTRIBUTION CENTRE... Back in March, Oxford City Council arranged with local partners to distribute food boxes through a network of community larders as well as a council run food distribution centre. Over 1600 food boxes a week are now distributed to those in need. The food boxes are supplied by SOFEA, a charity that works to ensure that everybody has access to quality food. Supplying this volume of food, not only to the residents of Oxford but the whole county, has been a huge undertaking for SOFEA and has required them to quickly expand their operations to cope with this new demand. Staff and volunteers at SOFEA have done a great job keeping the operation running smoothly under enormous pressure for 10 weeks straight! So in order to give SOFEA space to take a well-earned break, two teams from the City Council volunteered to take on the packing of the food parcels for a week. As part of this effort, last week saw Barton Community Centre become a food hub as council volunteers, led by members of our Barton Locality Hub team, took delivery of seven pallets of food and worked fast to pack everything into 900 boxes over two days. Community larders around the city then distributed the boxes, including 300 distributed by the Barton Community Association. A huge well done and thank you to everyone involved, and special thanks go to Dan Barker for all his hard work swiftly transforming the Hub into a well-oiled production line! GOVERNMENT GUIDANCE ON SOCIAL GATHERINGS In this fast changing situation, there's a lot of advice and guidance coming out and it can be confusing trying to keep on top of the updates. We've pulled together a summary of the most recent guidance from the Government: From the 13 June, single adult households are allowed to form a support bubble with one other household. This support bubble should not be changed. You should continue to maintain strict social distancing rules at all times when leaving the house. You should limit interactions with people outside of your household or support bubble. You are allowed to meet outdoors with no more than six people from different households or support bubbles. You are allowed to play sports in a group of no more than six people from different households or support bubbles. You are allowed to meet outdoors in groups larger than six, as long as everyone is a member of your household or support bubble. You must not meet in a group of more than six people that you don’t live with or who are not in your support bubble – it is prohibited by law. The police and relevant authorities have the powers to enforce the law, including by dispersing gatherings and dispensing fines. For more detail, and to keep up-to-date on official guidance, visit the Government website here: www.gov.uk .

  • Response to Boundary Commission's Draft Recommendations on the New
    Response to Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations on the new electoral arrangements for Oxford City Council (June 2018) Report prepared by Oxford East Green Party with the support of local residents 12th August 2018 FINAL VERSION 1 1. Introduction The Boundary Commission’s Draft Recommendations (June 2018) are, in almost all respects, the same as those presented to them by Oxford City Council’s Labour Group. There are only minor revisions reflecting some errors in the City’s initial calculations and some small changes suggested by the Boundary Commission. Oxford City Council has, very recently (7th August 2018 – going to the City’s Executive Board on 14th August 2018), suggested some minor refinements in response to these Draft Recommendations1 but has, perhaps not surprisingly given their provenance, largely accepted them. Unfortunately, the original proposals are – in the East of the City at least (St. Clement’s, Bartlemas and Donnington Wards) – not driven by the need to more accurately reflect community interests and identities or promote more effective and convenient local government. They were, as one Labour Councillor said to a Green Councillor in a cross-party review group; “designed to make sure you lot can’t get re-elected”. In this alternative arrangement of wards in East Oxford, we use evidence and examples to present our alternative to the Draft Recommendations for new wards we have provisionally named St. Clements, Bannister and Cricket Wards. This alternative arrangement maintains electoral equality whilst better: • Reflecting community boundaries and identities • Promoting more effective and convenient local government These proposals were accepted by Oxford City Council’s Electoral Services Manager, Martin John, as being a viable alternative arrangement of the three wards referred to in the Draft Recommendations as St.

  • Field Names of Headington (Including Old Headington, New Headington, Quarry, Barton and Wick)
    Field Names of Headington (including Old Headington, New Headington, Quarry, Barton and Wick) Nina Curtis and Anita Martin Background and Area Covered The story of Headington, its parish boundaries, manor, influence and importance in the history of Oxford is one of expansion, contraction and, finally, modest resignation. The names of places and fields in Headington not only reflect its past royal connections -- they can also guide us towards an understanding of the work and pastimes of the people who lived here, as well as providing a picture of the land and how people used it. Iron Age, Roman and Anglo-Saxon Headington The origins of the name Headington are not completely clear, but it most likely derives from the Old English Hedena's dun, meaning 'Hedena's hill', when it was reputed to be the site of the palace or hunting lodge of the Mercian Kings. Dun often denotes a large flat hill, usually with room for a settlement on the top, and this is precisely the shape of the hill on which Headington sits. It is possible that the name Hedena is related to an older Norse name of Heðinn. 1 Henry Alexander feels that the name originally referred to 'the down of Headda', and comments that Headda is a very common personal name in Old English. 2 Excavations in Barton Lane show evidence of Stone Age occupation, and on the old Manor Ground there are indications of Iron Age settlement in the 7th century BC, and there is evidence of Anglo-Saxon burials in the present-day Stephen Road.
