  • 7-8pm (doors opening at 6.30pm)
  • North Oxford Association Annexe, Diamond Place, Summertown, Oxford OX2 7DP

As well as holding our formal AGM, we are really looking forward to meeting members of the local community to share ideas about what our greener, cleaner city is going to look like, and the exciting projects that are getting us there. We are delighted that Councillor Louise Upton, Cabinet Member for Planning, and the Champion for Cycling, will be joining us for this discussion and sharing her vision and excitement for Oxford’s future. 

There will also be an opportunity to have a go on a Gazelle electric bike, courtesy of Bainton Bikes.
