To expand our offer through the 'Meanwhile in Oxfordshire' programme to ensure meanwhile spaces are as financially, socially and physically accessible as possible, for both resident organisations and the beneficiaries and public they serve. We have 290+ organisations who have applied for space but the barriers for 100+ of them mean they will be unable to access the spaces Applying learning from the refurbishment and management of MakeSpace buildings in Aristotle Lane and Makespace central and drawing on our diverse networks, we would partner with residents to deliver more accessible spaces and provide peer support that enables all organisations to thrive.

| Recipient Org: Description | Makespace Oxford is a Community Interest Company established to find innovative ways of bringing empty and underused buildings back into community use. The first Makespace Oxford has now opened in a North Oxford building owned by Wadham College and awaiting redevelopment. Twenty social enterprises, workers cooperatives, small charities and creative individuals are now working from Makespace Oxford. They have now found a space in which to fix, build, work, collaborate, and make an impact. The building is a catalyst, a question and a demand to make space for sustainability, creativity and community. It’s also a vibrant hub for community action, a place where new partnerships begin and ideas come to life. We’re now looking for new buildings, new opportunities to bring empty, underused and unloved structures back to life for the benefit of the local community, including to tackle homelessness. This could be in an office, workshop, retail or accommodation setting. |
