The Federation
North Oxfordshire Conservative Federation (NOCF) covers the Parliamentary constituencies of Banbury and Bicester & Woodstock. The Banbury Constituency consists of the principle settlements of Banbury, Bicester and Woodstock, Chipping Norton and Charlbury. We are honoured to have the former Prime Minister, The Rt Hon Lord David Cameron, as our Patron
The primary aim of the Federation is to represent the Conservative cause in North Oxfordshire, working to secure the election of two Conservative MPs, County Councillors, District Councillors, and Town Councillors to cover both town and country interests. We actively promote the great work of local elected representatives in their communities and help them to connect with you, their constituents.
As well as championing Conservative values and politics locally, we also promote Party membership while supporting our own active membership base. We have a great organisation, made up of all ages, for whom we organise a varied programme of social and political events. We are always delighted to welcome new members. Head to our ‘Get involved’ page to find out how you can sign up and join us!
The Constituencies
We are proud to be part of two unique and diverse constituencies right in the heart of England, Banbury and Bicester & Woodstock.
In recent years, the Banbury constituency has become a thriving business hub using its excellent transportation links with Birmingham, Oxford, and London to attract world-leading business groups ProDrive, Barry Callebaut, Karchner and Siemens. Both Banbury and Bicester are expanding towns, surrounded by beautiful Oxfordshire villages including Deddington, Finmere, Hook Norton, complete with a celebrated brewery, Fringford; inspiration for Lark Rise to Candleford and Cropredy, home of the Annual Cropredy Convention.
Following the 2023 constituency boundary changes, we welcomed the bustling market town of Chipping Norton into the Banbury constituency along with the attractive towns and villages of Charlbury, nestled in the Evenlode Valley, Churchill, Chadlington, Dean and Enstone. The Bicester and Woodstock constituency includes the town of Woodstock, home to Blenheim Palace, a World Heritage Site, and also features Eynsham and the busy commuter villages of Kidlington and Long Hanborough.
