Philanthropy

At OXSRAD, our mission is to ensure that fitness, social inclusion, and a supportive community are accessible to everyone, particularly those who are often overlooked. As an independent charity, we depend entirely on the generosity of individuals, businesses, and charitable trusts to sustain our work, as we receive no funding from central or local government.

To continue delivering our essential services, we need to raise £3,500 each month in addition to the revenue generated by our centre. These vital funds allow us to provide transformative opportunities for people of all abilities, focusing on those with disabilities, illnesses, or learning difficulties. We also extend our support to underserved groups, including the elderly, children with special educational needs (SEN), and individuals who have experienced poverty or come from a care background. Together, we aim to build a more inclusive community where everyone belongs.

Transforming lives through inclusivity and opportunity

Why Your Support Matters

Your generosity enables us to:

Empower Lives: Through fitness and social opportunities, we help individuals of all abilities improve their physical and mental well-being.
Provide Unparalleled Access: OXSRAD is Oxfordshire’s only fully inclusive and accessible fitness centre. People travel from over two hours away to access our services.
Create Community Impact: We work with local schools, offering children safe spaces to exercise, develop skills, and build confidence in a supportive environment.
Fill the Funding Gap: In 2023–2024 alone, we supported 242 individuals with limiting disabilities or illnesses, including 116 children and young people under 25. Demand is growing, but public funding for these vulnerable groups is shrinking rapidly.
