In 1920, amid the trauma and fallout from World War One, Community First Oxfordshire (then known as Oxfordshire Rural Community Council was founded.

One hundred years on, we’re still going strong. To mark this major milestone we have produced a Centenary Booklet.

This looks back at how CFO and communities in Oxfordshire have changed over the decades and the major changes that we have adapted to: from the Depression of the thirties, another World War,  the huge social changes of post-1945 Britain to 21st century austerity and COVID-19.

We hope that you enjoy it!
