We’ve entered Oxford Bus Company’s Brand a Bus competition, and we need your help to win.
If we’re successful, our branding will appear on an Oxford Bus Company vehicle, giving us the chance to reach thousands of people across the communities we now serve. For a small, local charity, that kind of visibility would be transformative.
How to vote
We’re entry number 71, right at the bottom of the list. Voting takes less than 30 seconds!

About the competition
Oxford Bus Company’s Brand a Bus competition invites local charities and community organisations to apply for the chance to have their branding wrapped across one of the company’s buses for a full year. The winning entry gets their design on a vehicle travelling routes across Oxfordshire, turning a working bus into a moving advert seen by thousands of people every day.
It’s a brilliant opportunity for a small charity like ours, and one we couldn’t afford to buy outright. The winner is decided by public vote, which is where you come in.
Why it matters
Last month we completed our merger with the Reading branch, becoming RSPCA Oxfordshire and Reading. The merger brings new areas, new animals into our care, and a real need to make sure local people know who we are and how to support us directly.
As a self-funded branch, every penny raised in our area stays in our area. We’re run by a small team of two paid staff and thirteen trustees, and we rely on local awareness to keep rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming animals across Oxfordshire and Reading.
A branded bus travelling through our towns and villages would help us reach supporters who might never otherwise hear about us, and make clear that donations to our branch go directly to animals in our counties, not to the national organisation.
Please take 30 seconds to vote!
If you can spare a couple of seconds to vote, it would mean a huge amount to us and to the animals in our care.
Thank you for your support.
