Service Description
Food deliveries are made through the week depending on location and driver availability.
While inequalities in accessing food persist, and while food vulnerability affects people in our communities, OMA seeks to address this through delivering healthy food and re-heatable meals to people experiencing deprivation, homelessness and food poverty in Oxford city.
OMA strive for food justice whereby access to healthy, nutritious and affordable food is recognised as a basic human right. Their mission is mutual aid – all food services are delivered with dignity and in solidarity.
OMA work in partnership with other local organisations to develop community-based resilience and build more sustainable local food systems.
