"Oxford Hospitals Charity helps to transform care - funding the best medical equipment, research, training and facilities for our patients and staff. Although we aren't a huge charity we have a big impact - and that's because we keep things local and work very closely with our clinical colleagues to understand how we can really make a difference. In fact, nearly every ward and department across all of our hospitals has felt the positive impact of donations, fundraising and gifts in Wills - all thanks to thoughtful and generous individuals who want to make a difference in their local community."

Asylum Welcome is an Oxfordshire based charity, supporting refugees and asylum seekers living across the county. Our mission at Asylum Welcome is simple. We ensure that those with a humanitarian need for assistance are safe, feel welcome and can lead dignified lives as included members of the community. The overwhelming majority of our clients have fled some of the most dangerous places on earth, often escaping war, famine, religious and political persecution, and human trafficking. We are a community-driven charity, run by and for the community. Most of our face-to-face service delivery is carried out by our 224 dedicated local volunteers, of whom more than 20% have lived experience of displacement. With this incredible support, along with the generosity of hundreds of deeply committed local donors, we directly assisted 2693 individuals in 2023/24, an impossible feat without the remarkable support that we receive from across the community.
