Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Since 2009, Oxford Samaritans have been offering a listening service on Cornmarket Street for anyone who may need to talk on a Friday evening. Based on outreach events and approaches established by Samaritans Branches in South Wales, following the widespread media reports of suicides of young people in Bridgend in 2007, the service remains active in Oxford. Matt will share the history and evolution of this approach; why it works, and why it matters.
