Scope and Content

Oxford House has been part of many projects and initiatives that are grouped together here under the title, 'social programmes'. This includes youth work, citizens' rights groups, an arts workshop and Somali projects, as well as employment and housing initiatives. Many of these projects became departments at Oxford House, however some were temporary outreach projects. The structure of these programmes was and is a mixture of being run by Oxford House, local community groups and collaborations with the local authority.
