Growing Minds is a collaborative project, bringing together established local service providers from education, health and family support to deliver tried-and-tested interventions to improve school readiness and support young children’s life chances. Oxfordshire Community Foundation developed the project, launching the pilot in two south Oxfordshire communities in January 2020.
In April 2022, the leadership of Growing Minds was taken on by a partnership of third sector organisations who were involved from the start: Peeple, HomeStart Oxford and the Berin Centre. Growing Minds was made possible by Our Common Good and is supported by a consortium of donors.
