The Cutteslowe Community Association
The Cutteslowe Community Association supports the local residents and aims to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for local people. It is non‑party in politics and non‑sectarian in religion. It aims to benefit Cutteslowe and the surrounding district. The Community Centre is owned by Oxford City Council and lies on the edge of Cutteslowe and Sunnymead park, the largest park in Oxford. It is also close to the River Cherwell, a tributary of the Thames. There are several areas of managed woodland where thousands of trees have been planted over the last few years and areas where wetlands and further woodland could be extended. There is also nearby Council owned land which could be used to provide natural enclaves, community gardens, orchards and allotments. The Cutteslowe Allotments were once larger than the present 1.7 acres but are still thriving and fully subscribed.
