Different tiers of local government are responsible for different things in our community and the diagram above shows how the Parish Council works with the South Oxfordshire District Council and the Oxfordshire County Council and other agencies to deliver your services.
Goring-on-Thames Parish Council (GPC) represents everyone in the civil parish of Goring, South Oxfordshire. GPC makes decisions on behalf of, and represents the interests of, the people in the parish. It is the level of local government closest to the community.
