Each year CAG Oxfordshire collect data from around its network of community action groups to get an idea of the collective impact created across the county.
This year, groups reported engaging more than 84,000 people in activities, events, and outreach – nearly 12% of the county’s population. Volunteers contributed more than 97,000 hours worth of time, a 47% increase over last year, to initiatives such as repair cafes, tree plantings, draught busting, community markets, bike repair training, growing food, ensuring food is not wasted, but rather redistributed, and so so much more.
Community action groups across Oxfordshire help build connected communities, support biodiversity and nature recovery, tackle food waste, food insecurity and help community grow schemes, they encourage active travel, and promote circular and sharing economies.
