At Oxford Brookes, we are passionate about our community and we value our relationships with our neighbours. Our staff, students and alumni support and promote several community events. Here's an overview of just some of the ways in which we contribute to our community.
Contributing to our local community
We have an open campus at Oxford Brookes. You’re welcome to take a walk around our beautiful gardens. Or you could attend an open lecture, free documentary or art exhibition.
Our services and facilities include:
- Brookes Sport Centre
- Library
- Dentist
- Co-Op and Nisa convenience stores
- Catering outlets
- Glass Tank exhibition space.
Headington Festival
Headington Festival is an annual family event. Our Oxford Brookes stall gives us the chance to get to know residents better and learn about local issues and plans.
Cowley Road Carnival
We are proud to have been sponsors of the Cowley Road Carnival in recent years. Our team has taken part in the procession and we have also had a dedicated Oxford Brookes Zone.
We encourage our students to become active citizens in the community. Volunteering opportunities range from long term sustainable projects to one-off activities.
Our staff volunteering policy allows staff to attend volunteering activities as individuals or with their team.
