"United We Stand; Against All Discrimination," says Oxford
Community march calls for unity, inclusion and a stand against hate in Oxford.
Oxford is set to hold a Unity March and Rally this Sunday, November 16, 2025, to promote inclusion and an anti-hate message. The event will begin at 12:30 PM at the Templars Square Centre, Barns Road, Cowley, with participants marching together to Bonn Square for a rally celebrating Oxford as a City that welcomes migrants, refugees, and people of all backgrounds.
This march is a response to rising Islamophobia, antisemitism, and other forms of hate, aiming to strengthen community solidarity. Participants will carry banners with messages such as “Welcome All,” “Unity & Strength,” “Hope for All,” and “No Hate.”
For those with limited mobility, additional meetup points are available at 1:30 PM at Manzil Way Green and at 2:15 PM at St. Mary the Virgin Church on High Street.
The event is supported by a broad coalition of community groups, advocacy organisations, trade unions, and local organisations, emphasizing unity in the face of hate and division. It is a call for the community to stand together to celebrate the diversity and solidarity of Oxford and reject hate.
Organisers say the event is about “standing together as one community, and celebrating the city we share.”
