Citizens Advice Oxfordshire (CAOx) was established in 2008 by the Trustees of the eight Citizens Advice Bureaux in the County.

It is a registered charity and a company, limited by guarantee.

 CAOx has as its main aims:

  1. To provide a single, legal entity with which funding agencies can engage.
  2. To promote and develop a more effective and efficient delivery of advice services across the County.
  3. To develop and manage effective partnerships with other organisations.
  4. To exercise greater influence on local and national policies and services, to the benefit of the community
  5. To create opportunities for the 8 member bureaux to access new sources of funding.
  6. To work with Citizens Advice nationally to develop strategy and promote innovation.
  7. To ensure consistent delivery of services to reach and satisfy those in most need of support.
  8. To raise the profile of our member bureaux and the CAB service throughout the county.

CAOx consists of a Board of Trustees drawn from the constituent Bureaux Trustees with an independent Chair and a part-time co-ordinator who provides staff support. All CAOx initiatives are delivered through the Bureaux.

Like all our bureaux we rely on grants and donations for our income. If you wish to donate to support our work, please click here.
