Oundle and District Care
About The Charity
Our History
Oundle and District Care was founded in 1949, originally established to support those suffering from tuberculosis at a time when community care was limited. While healthcare needs have changed significantly over the past 75 years, our purpose has remained the same - to support local people when help is needed and to provide care and assistance not readily available from other sources. Today, we continue to respond to the needs of the Oundle community with practical support, compassion, and a strong spirit of local involvement.
Charity Information

Charity Registration Number: 1052519
We are funded through local donations, fundraising activities, and our annual Christmas Appeal. All funds raised are used to support individuals and community health initiatives within the Oundle area.
Our Committee
Catherine Goldsmith
Chair of Oundle and District Care
The charity is run by a small, dedicated volunteer committee supported by a network of village representatives who help us stay connected to local needs across Oundle and surrounding villages. Together, they ensure support reaches those who need it most and that our services continue to benefit the community.
