🌿 Live in rural Oxfordshire? We want to hear from you! 🌿

We’re gathering local views to better understand what supports people’s health and well-being in rural communities.

We’d love to know:

✅ What helps you stay healthy and well

🚧 What makes this more difficult

💡 Your ideas for improving health and care where you live

We’re especially keen to hear from people living in:
Deddington, Cropredy, Heyford, Yarnton, Chipping Norton, Charlbury, Long Hanborough, Freeland, Chalgrove, Sonning Common, Faringdon, Stanford in the Vale, Shrivenham, and Watchfield.

👉 Share your views in our anonymous survey:
https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/rurallivingpublic/

This research is being carried out with Community First Oxfordshire, on behalf of Oxfordshire County Council and district councils. What you tell us will help shape future support and improve services in your community.

📍 Live in a different rural area? You can still take part — your views matter, so please do share them!

Thank you for helping make rural Oxfordshire a healthier place to live 💚
