The Jericho Community Association (JCA) is a charitable incorporated organization with a committee of trustees who are elected each year by full members at the annual general meeting.
Membership of the JCA is free, and anyone can apply to join. Full voting members, however, have to live in Jericho. Jericho is defined by the land bounded on the west by the east bank of Castle Mill Stream, on the north by Walton Well Road, on the east by Walton Street and on the south by Hythe Bridge Street, the boundary being formed by the middle of the roads. There are three main types of membership:
- Full member – Persons living within Jericho. Full voting rights at a general meeting
- Junior member – Person under 18 year living in Jericho. No voting rights
- Associate member – Person living outside Jericho. Very welcome to join, or become a trustee but no AGM voting rights

- Here, on the Jericho Online website
- By completed membership form available in the Community Centre, handed to JCA staff or trustee, or mailed to JCA, 33a Canal Street, Oxford OX2 6BQ
Duration of membership Membership will last for three years Members will be reminded two months before their membership expires and will be invited to renew. If they fail to respond, the membership will automatically expire. For further information, please see: JCA Membership Management Policy JCA Constitution
The history of the Phoenix?
There has been a cinema here since 1913. Orginally it the 'North Oxford Kinema', since when it has passed through many hands and names, including the Scala, the New Scala, the Studios 1 and 2, Studio X (a club showing soft porn) and finally in 1977 the Phoenix.
Where we work?
According to the 2001 Census, in Jericho 28% of those working were self-employed, while 18% worked part time. Around 20% were in higher professional occupations compared with 14% for Oxford. We also tend to work nearby: 72% of people worked within five kilometres of their home; 18% went to work on foot, 13% by car and 6% by bike
