Our Purpose
Welcome to FEDORA – The Voice for Oxshott.
We are a not-for-profit community interest company run by local residents who are committed to maintaining and improving the quality of life in our village and its surrounding areas. Our focus is on initiatives to do with planning, roads, flooding and a “green” Oxshott as well as supporting litter picking, community speed watch and other local activities. We are totally non-sectarian and non-political, and seek to represent the whole of Oxshott. You can read more about our company here.

Join Our Petition to Control Traffic on the A244
The volume and nature of traffic on the A244 affects everyone in Oxshott. FEDORA has launched a petition using the Surrey e-petition system calling for a number of measures to improve our lives. The more people who sign the greater chance we stand of getting attention and action. There is no guarantee we will get action, but we can guarantee there won’t be any action if we don’t ask. So please sign – the link is here. You will need to register with the Surrey site to sign the petition if you haven’t done so before but this only takes a few seconds.
This petition has the full support of Surrey councillors Andy Burton and David Lewis. We will be calling for wider support over the next few weeks but don’t wait, ask your friends and relatives to sign and help us demonstrate to Surrey the strength of feeling.
