As 2024 draws to a close, we’re reflecting on so

As 2024 draws to a close, we’re reflecting on some of the memorable moments over the past year... Join us in celebrating 12 Days of Impact, an appreciation of the achievements that have defined the past 12 months & Makespace and beyond.⁠
⁠
🌟 Day 1: The launch of the 'Meanwhile in Oxfordshire...' Impact & Learning Report 🌟⁠
⁠
Earlier this year we got to shine a light on the impact and insights of the ’Meanwhile in Oxfordshire…‘ programme. The aims, the learnings and the human stories behind it. The report provides a helpful tool for other organisations looking to make a positive impact through place-based renewal. ⁠
⁠
'Meanwhile in Oxfordshire...' was a truly collaborative programme that would not have been possible without our incredible partners and residents, and this report was delivered to the public with a very hearty thank you!⁠

We're so proud of Alex who has been selected as one of 10 community innovators for the People and Place Programme with @foodnetworktrust 🤩⁠
⁠
It kicked off this week and Alex hopes to be inspired by other community asset leaders and explore new strategies that enable communities to thrive. ⁠
⁠
Through Footwork’s support, Alex hopes to develop his leadership qualities and build trusted relationships with communities in Bicester that might support a social impact and community hub.⁠
⁠
You can find out more on their website, but for now, we leave you with Alex's BIG question... “What if we move from a mindset of deficit, to abundance where we curate compounding cultures of care, collectively supporting one another to build thriving and healthy communities?”
