The Community Wellbeing Team at West Oxfordshire District Council are passionate about enabling people to be more active, to have the confidence to get out walking and enjoy the outdoors in a safe way. To do this we need people to share their enthusiasm for the benefits of walking with others in their community by leading walks in their local area. We want everyone to have access to a short, friendly group walk within easy reach of where they live to help them become and stay healthy.

We would like to invite you to participate in our next FREE Wellbeing Walk Leader Training on Tues 14^th May 09:00 – 12:00 starting from Witney Artificial Turf Pitch, Gordon Way, Witney OX28 4EH. It will be led by a Ramblers qualified trainer in a fun and relaxed environment. For more details and to register please contact Jenny Bennett on 01993 861564 or community.wellbeing@westoxon.gov.uk

The consultation runs from 30 August – 25 October 2023 and is focused on 3 particular elements: Draft local plan objectives – a series of draft objectives which are intended to guide the future evolution of the plan in terms of its overall approach and anticipated policy content; The future pattern of development in West Oxfordshire – different scenarios for how and where we might look to focus future growth in the period up to 2041; Call for sites, ideas and opportunities – an open invitation for stakeholders to put forward their thoughts on how land in the District might be used in the future such as new housing, employment, infrastructure, community use, green space, nature recovery and renewable energy. The feedback received will then be used to inform a series of preferred policy approaches which will be the subject of further consultation in due course. Hard copies of the consultation material will shortly be made available at Council Offices and all district libraries.To complement the digital consultation, we will also be running a number of ‘in-person’ consultation events, further details of which will be made available as soon as possible.
