Story

The High Sheriff of Oxfordshire's Charitable Fund is held and managed by Oxfordshire Community Foundation (OCF), a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (number 1151621), to assist current and future High Sheriffs in raising money for charitable purposes. Sylvia Jay was sworn in as High Sheriff of Oxfordshire on 9th April 2019.

Charities that will be supported using donations to the High Sheriff's fund in 2019-20 include:

Aspire Oxford, which helps ex-prisoners find homes and work

Fine Cell Work, which teaches needlework skills to prisoners, mostly men

Crisis and Arts at The Old Fire Station, which help homeless and other vulnerable people find homes, new skills and jobs, including in the artistic world

Think Through Nutrition based in Oxford, which has done research showing that improving diets in prisons also improves prisoners' behaviour.
