We are a busy, energetic Society and are always in need of more help from our members. 

There are many different ways you can help – either ‘as-and-when’ or on  a more involved ‘ongoing’ basis

Please, email volunteer@oxfordcivicsoc.org.uk

joining a

committee or

working group

In addition to the Executive Committee, we have a number of working groups which focus on different aspects of the Society’s work – planning, environment, travel, programme of events, OxClean, Oxford Streets for People, Communications.  We are always looking for people who would like to join us. We work hard but it is fun too! 

OxClean

ambassador

The OxClean Don’t Drop It! campaign needs a number of people to deliver publicity materials to shops, take away outlets, businesses etc., and make return visits at regular intervals.  Let us know that you can help and we will allocate you a ‘territory’.

project

work

From time to time we need people to work on specific projects – eg putting together data bases, distributing materials and equipment to community groups and/or businesses, manning stands at community events. Put your name forward and we will add you to our panel.

Museum

of Oxford

volunteer

Given cuts in the Museum’s operating budget, a radical overhaul of service structure is in hand. .A Volunteer Network providing visitor and administrative services on a day to day basis will be central to the new structure. Can you give ½ a day or more a week to work at the Museum?

refreshments

at meetings

As you may know, we run a series of evening talks – usually on a Monday - throughout the year.  We offer tea and coffee at the beginning of the evening and would love to have more people on our list of those who are happy to help offer refreshments, which are always much appreciated.  Please put your name forward – we will check your availability and put you on the rota.

supplying photographs

We are always looking for photographs to include on our website pages, News Releases and other publicity material.  We also keep a gallery on our website. Please, do take your camera along to Society events and outings and email two of your best photos to us as soon as possible afterwards.
