Commendations

I was very interested to hear about the dynamic work of OxFizz and its innovative method of encouraging volunteering and raising funds. Many charities, and in particular smaller charities, struggle to raise funds, so the pioneering work of OxFizz is welcome.

In addition, the OxFizz internship programme offers invaluable experience for young people interested in working in the third sector. The training, seminars and placements OxFizz offers help to develop the key skills that will both encourage talented young people to work for a charity, and boost their employability.

OxFizz is social entrepreneurship at its best. A sustainable and replicable business model designed to meet specific needs in the community

David Verey - Chairman, The Art Fund

Oxford and Oxfordshire are rich in the diversity and enthusiasm of their many voluntary and community sector organisations. I welcome the establishment of OxFizz, a new and innovative social enterprise.
