The Oxfordshire Playing Fields Association, founded in the 1930s, is a registered charity (no. 304398). We work across Cherwell, West Oxfordshire, South Oxfordshire, the Vale of White Horse and Oxford City. Our aim is to ensure that people of all ages, including people with disabilities, have access to good quality local outdoor sport and recreational facilities, including children’s play.
A major part of our day-to-day work is devoted to helping community-based organisations, especially in the rural areas of our county, to provide, preserve, improve and adequately maintain outdoor recreational and children’s play facilities. We have a particular interest in encouraging facilities for children and young people.
The OPFA is the only non-commercial organisation in the county able to provide a comprehensive and impartial playing space advice service for local Oxfordshire groups. These include town and parish councils, and voluntary playing field management committees, including children’s play area managers.
OPFA is a member of the national network of County Playing Fields Associations .
If you have any concerns or questions about your outdoor community space, we would love to hear from you.
