It’s the start of Foster Care Fortnight (11–24 May) 🩷 We’re celebrating local foster carers and encouraging more people to consider fostering, because every child deserves a safe and caring home. Come along to one of our drop-in events near you www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/children-and...

Oxfordshire County Council Cabinet member for Adult Social Care Tim Bearder has sent a strongly worded letter to the government over the impact of proposed immigration changes on care services, warning that this means fewer services at higher cost, putting care services at risk.

We were delighted to join partners at the official opening of Fern Meadows in Faringdon – a brand‑new extra care housing scheme helping people aged 55+ live independently, with care and support on hand when needed. Watch the video below to meet some of the residents and see inside 👇

Huge thanks to everyone who has these garden posters on display - I’m really hopeful that we can get Bryonie on to the Bicester East Team where the only thing we will be discussing is how to support you, using the collective might of Cherwell District Council and Oxfordshire County Council 🙏☺️🧡

It’s been a busy few weeks. I’ve spoken at the Health and Wellbeing Board about the need for our domestic abuse service to be meaningfully effective. I’ve attempted to explain the 90% SEND deficit write off at Cabinet and I’ve spoken at Full Council in support of Bicester East works and projects.

A bit further forwards on the Launton Road pedestrian crossing today, although much further away still than I’d like to be, we keep going! Progress is being made on the flooding under the Bicester North rail bridge. And I spoke in support of more work to keep our pavements looking clean and tidy 🧹🫧🧡

Good campaigning session in Bicester East today. Lots came up on the doorstep, but mostly potholes. I’ve been able to explain to residents that we are moving into a ‘recovery’ phase now that the weather has dried, we plan to throw everything at this and get caught up. You will see activity near you.

Spoke with BBC Berkshire this week ref fostering. We have an amazing fostering service in Oxfordshire that is not unique in needing more foster carers. I’m grateful that the BBC continue to cover this story.

We’re really lucky in Bicester East that one of our neighbours is the published author Nigel Collett. It was a fab evening having been invited to the launch of his latest work ‘The Dream of Magnus Maximus’. I’m looking forward to reading it now.

“Effective progress” is being made on special educational needs in Oxfordshire, according to Government inspectors sent in after the county failed its inspection in 2023. Parent/carer organisation OxPCF says “This is the beginning of a journey – but many families may not yet feel the benefits.”

The huge pile of illegally dumped waste by the A34 in Kidlington is utterly shocking. Yesterday a Govt Minister agreed to meet me, I will ask her to step in to remove this terrifying environmental risk. I’ve also raised this as an urgent matter with the Chief Exec of the Environment Agency.

Oxfordshire County Council's cabinet member for transport, Andrew Gant, has fired back at Oxford East MP Anneliese Dodds over the city’s temporary congestion charge. In a five-page open letter, the LibDem councillor calls Labour’s opposition to it “grotesque, upsetting and bizarre”.
