Come and join us at our Winter Open Meeting and AGM, at 7.30pm on Tuesday 25 November, at Wolvercote Village Hall.

Everyone welcome!

Hear the latest on how our locality is changing. Have your say on the spending of community funds available to us, and hear about some bold new plans for community facilities in our area.

Refreshments from Wolvercote W.I.

Papers for the meeting (Agenda, Annual Report, Treasurer’s Report and the (draft) Minutes of the 2024 Open Meeting & AGM) can be found here.

We are recruiting!

The work of the Wolvercote Neighbourhood Forum is done by the volunteers making up its Steering Committee. There is much going on at present in the WNF area.

We need more help.

What we do

We have created the Wolvercote Neighbourhood Plan, approved by residents in the 2021 referendum, and accepted by the City Council. We now monitor all developments and planning applications affecting the area. We respond and challenge when they threaten the vision for our area expressed in the Plan and favoured by residents.

We access money from the ‘Community Infrastructure Levy’ that developers pay the City Council. We use this to provide financial support to local groups with projects improving community infrastructure. The amount of money available is growing, so there is great potential for new projects. The photo below shows an example of a recent project. There are many more!

To do all this effectively, we try as hard as we can to keep in touch with our members (i.e. all residents) through publicity, social media, emails, periodic public meetings etc.

Come and join us

If you are a resident of the WNF area, and are interested in joining us in these tasks, please email us at wolvercotenf@gmail.com .

We especially need more help and expertise in local authority planning issues and communications (particularly social media). We also need volunteers to help with our CIL projects for which we require good social skills and an eye for detail.
