This MoU formalises our partnership, where OxFSN provides essential administrative, financial, and operational support to OxPCF, allowing us to focus on our advocacy work and engagement with families. OxFSN manages our funding, assists with IT and HR support, and provides strategic guidance, ensuring we can operate effectively and sustainably.
