Oxford Inspires is pleased to announce that
leading law firm Blake Lapthorn
has renewed its Corporate Membership for 2009. The firm, which
has an established history in Oxfordshire, has been a long-standing
Corporate Member and was the major local corporate partner
supporting last year’s The
Planet Earth Season and Earth

exhibition at Oxford Castle. The strength of this partnership
was recently acknowledged with Best

Sponsorship Awards 2009.
Jonathan Lloyd-Jones, Senior Partner at Blake
Lapthorn said: "As a firm with a demonstrated commitment
to Oxfordshire we are proud to be involved in our community
and to be part of local celebrations and programmes. Through
working with Oxford Inspires we have been
able to develop many valuable and exciting opportunities,
such as the Green
Breakfasts
series. The link between businesses and cultural organisations
remains even more important at this time.”
Oxford Inspires exists to develop and promote
the cultural life of Oxfordshire in all its forms. The charity’s
aim is to involve everyone more fully in Oxfordshire’s
rich cultural life and support exciting initiatives and imaginative
projects. The work of Oxford Inspires is
made possible through partnerships with arts organisations,
community groups, the universities, and the public and private

Kathelene Weiss, Director of Development for Oxford
Inspires said: “The long-term commitment from
Blake Lapthorn has been
vital to helping deliver exciting events and exhibitions and
in supporting our work as the cultural development agency
for the county. With its help, Oxford Inspires will continue
to promote Oxfordshire’s artists, festivals, and museums
