Our priority is ensuring that councils have the resources to manage the immediate and long-term impacts of the pandemic.

In 2020-21, Oxfordshire County Council received £16.5 million specifically for adult social care, to support its COVID-19 response.

This year, alongside the ability to raise funding through the precept, it will receive £12.6 million through the Social Care Grant and £4.1 million through the Infection Control and Testing Fund.
