Oxford Hub is a local charity working to tackle inequalities of health, education and inequality in Oxford. Through volunteering programmes and collaborative community projects, we support people to bring about positive change for themselves and their communities. We run Big Brothers Big Sisters, which matches volunteer mentors with local children aged 7-11. The mentor and young person spend time together once a week, going on trips, helping them with homework or doing fun activities together – whether that’s learning guitar, perfecting their front crawl, planning a day trip to London or learning how to cook. These positive relationships have a lasting influence on young people’s lives, boosting their self-esteem and helping them to achieve their goals. It’s also lots of fun!
