Barton is a council estate at the edge of Oxford ranking in the bottom 20% on the indices of deprivation and in the bottom 10% for Children and Young People’s education.
Poverty, family breakdown, poor mental health, child exploitation and low self-esteem are just some of the issues here.
But to simply judge Barton based on the indices of deprivation or on its reputation is inadequate. This is a beautiful community brimming with talent and kindness, made up of loyal, caring, resilient people. It’s a community full of potential.
Love Barton is a Christian charity that exists to help bring out this potential, to tackle systemic issues that keep people and families in poverty, and to release them to flourish in all areas of life.
