Key staff contacts

Here at AFSO we are a small team and our staff are mostly community based – so we are often found out & about in the community or driving across Oxfordshire! Someone is usually in the office on Mondays – Wednesdays from 8:30am to 4:30pm during term time. Outside of these times our office phone has an answerphone. PLEASE NOTE: If you are new to us, or enquiring about a child/young person we do not yet know, please help us by sending us a completed Referral Form before contacting us.
