COMMUNITY

Part of the ethos at Falcon is to build and maintain strong links with local community groups within Oxford and Oxfordshire.

Our ambitions include changing the culture and structure of our sport to ensure it becomes equally accessible to all members of society and ensuring that everyone can realise their talent and full potential. Collaborating with community organizations, we strive to broaden access and minimize disparities among underrepresented groups.

Our outreach activity includes setting up satellite clubs with local schools, organising one-off taster sessions and running courses for various local organisations.
With our local community in mind we also organise regular litter pick events to clear rubbish from along the riverbank. In recent years these events have been run in collaboration with our friends at GoodGym. We also received funding from the Tree Council to plant a new hedgerow and a few trees surrounding our site.

In 2012, our commitment to community service was recognized with the prestigious Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, a testament to our dedication to local empowerment and enrichment.
