Further Description
  • MISSION STATEMENT of the Bicester Action Group Bicester Action Group is an independent and non-political protest Group founded by Dionne Arrowsmith and Sue Baxter, both of whom are local villagers. Bicester Action Group?s prime purpose is to oppose the Government?s proposals to locate an Asylum Seekers? Centre at the MOD site lying between the villages of Piddington and Arncott near Bicester.The Group will work on behalf of the local village and town communities so as to represent their views and opinions with local and district councils and with central government. We wish to be, and to be seen to be, ?The Voice of the People? and to represent the fears, wishes and considerations which deeply affect so many local people and to express these to all influential parties in a clear and persuasive way. We seek to do this in a balanced manner by presenting factual information and also, with genuine understanding and compassion, the problems of the asylum seekers. We understand that the issue of asylum seekers is a national one and seek to present our local situation within the wider national context.
