AN OXFORD charity needs votes to secure funding for a new project to get school children playing outdoors.

The Centre for Sustainable Healthcare is hoping to secure a grant from the Aviva community fund for its Walk on the Wildside project.

This will work with pupils and adults in Marston, getting them involved in outdoors activities in Marston’s Nature Park and walks along the local green health route.

The group are competing in the £10,001 to £25,000 funding level and the public are voting on which of the thousands of projects will go through to a final, where the money will be distributed by judges.
