Counties must have a three-year plan based on Royal British Legion aims and policies and the
County objectives. County Plans are live agenda items which the County Committee reviews
at each committee meeting and should also be reviewed annually by the County Committee
at their annual meeting.

Oxfordshire County is also leading the way with the production of its Strategic Paper which feeds into the County Plan.  The events and changes during 2024 going into 2025 with the election of a new County Chair in 2025 has determined the need to determine a County Strategic Plan that compliments the County Plan.

The County Plan is to form the working document that holds roles and activities to account for the County.
Since the implications and effect of COVID 19 are slowly being cast to the future, it has become very apparent that the administration of the County needs to be returned to a foundation that will enable the County to be fit for purpose for 2025 and beyond. The introduction of a detailed County Plan outlines the activities to move the County forward, but the purpose of this document is to focus the County Committee Senior Management to formulate our Plans for the next 3-years. Given the complexities and importance of issues this document will break each area down to its constituent parts.

The process of the annual MS1 Returns has highlighted significant issues and flaws with the lack of communication with Branches in the viability of Branch Committees and ensuring compliance of the Royal Charter, RBL Rules and Regulations under the auspices of the Membership Handbook.
