Local action.
Real change.
Sustainable Woodstock brings local people together to make our town greener, healthier and more resilient — from community woodland and safer streets to clean energy and cutting waste.
Volunteer-led, practical and rooted in Woodstock.
What we're working on
Practical projects, close to home.
We combine hands-on community projects with campaigning and partnership work. These are some of the issues where local action can make a visible difference.
Active travel
Safer streets & routes
Working for safer walking, wheeling and cycling, better crossings and calmer traffic on the A44 and beyond.

Climate action

Local people, working together.
Since 2008, Sustainable Woodstock has helped turn concern about climate and nature into practical local action.
We are volunteer-led and open to anyone who wants to help. Some people join a woodland working party, some bring expertise to a campaign, some help organise events, and many simply stay connected through the newsletter until something catches their interest.
We work with Woodstock Town Council, schools, community organisations, businesses, Blenheim Palace and wider Oxfordshire networks whenever collaboration can achieve more.
