FairPlay/Climate Justice Campaign

Social Justice Network

FairPlay is a network in Cutteslowe, Summertown, Waterways and Wolvercote which hopes to bring together the voluntary organisations and groups, including the churches, who are working in their different ways for social justice issues. It aims to:

• keep in touch and exchange information
• encourage and support one another's separate activities
• share resources
• arrange joint events and act together
  (e.g. campaigning) when appropriate.

There is a small co-ordinating group nominated by the network's members and agreed to annually at an Open Meeting.

Open Meetings (open to anyone interested in the network or in membership with one of its groups) are held at least twice a year to share news and ideas, discuss current issues, and plan ahead.

Lists of member organisations and FairPlay newsletters can be received by email by relevant groups and supporters signing up to FairPlay. Contact: fairplayoxford@gmail.com

LCON, a FairPlay member, is supporting Oxford Together on Climate Change (OxToCC).

This is a major new initiative people in Oxford and across the county in taking action in their own lives to help tackle climate change. OxToCC is seeking to get people taking 10,000 actions by June.

The OxToCC website has advice and information on actions around four key issues - Food, Travel, Money and 'Making Change Happen' – the four issues identified at the launch of the December 2018 UN Climate Conference report as being those where individual action is needed.

You can register the action online – which takes less than a minute - and it counts towards the 10,000 target. www.change4climate.uk
