overall aims and objectives
Our Profits help people and the planet.
As a CIC our overall aims and objectives are to advance people’s wellbeing and connection with the environment, the arts, culture and heritage through authentic ‘time stamped’ historically themed events across Oxford and the UK.
Our community engagement goals are to have a real impact on the ability of people to live independent lives, support their own well-being and actively contribute to society. We also want to help reduce social isolation and loneliness, especially in the time of Covid-19.
In addition to advancing people’s wellbeing, we hope that through engaging with our work that people start their own journeys to bring about systemic change, and engage in their own activities for positive social and environmental change.
