Our Funders and Partners
Oxfordshire Community Rail Partnership (OxCRP) is generously funded by the rail industry and local stakeholders on an ongoing basis. You can read about them on this page.
​
As well as our ongoing funders, we also work (and have worked) with numerous other partners on specific projects. We also make bids to grant-awarding bodies for additional pieces of project work.
​
We are always ready to talk to new funders who want to use our skills and unique relationship with the rail industry to deliver work with them or on their behalf. If that sounds like you then please click the button below so that we can start exploring how we could work together.

In the OxCRP area it runs trains from London Paddington to Didcot, Oxford, Banbury, and along the Cotswold Line to stations including Charlbury and Moreton-in-Marsh.
Active Oxfordshire
Active Oxfordshire is a local charity dedicated to fighting inactivity and challenging inequality, and an Active Partnership funded by Sport England. It works with partners to improve access to physical activity, break down the complex barriers that can prevent people from getting active and work through local communities to achieve lasting change.
Oxfordshire County Council
Oxfordshire County Council is the local transportation authority for Oxfordshire, responsible for all non-trunk public roads, as well as the provision of socially necessary bus service not provided by commercial bus operators. The council also has a key interest in sustainable travel options and supports OxCRP’s goals of promoting rail use by visitors and residents, as well as using the rail network to deliver social value.
Our other partners
We work with many other partners - including other CRPs - to deliver specific projects or one-off events. We love to make connections with new organisations that share our philosophy of realising people's potential through connections and transport.
