Donnington Doorstep is a community-based family centre delivering a range of universal and specialist services. It was set up in 1984 by local parents, who knew that caring for children can be hard. My mum was involved a little at the start, and I was one of the children that it was hard to care for (unruly, etc).
Forty years on Donnington Doorstep is still a home from home drop-in for children, young people and their families as well as a hub for local community activity. It is based in a purpose-built centre in East Oxford and its activities focus on play, food, support and community development.

We wanted to hold a celebration for the centre not just in the University that now dominates Oxford (far more than it did in 1984). This celebration was held at St Peter's Collge Oxford, on Friday 21st June 2024. The recording is just of Danny Dorling's contribution.
