"Makespace Oxford and its particular approach have demonstrated they can bring empty buildings back into use quickly for the benefit of the local community without impacting on our longer term development plans. For a landowner this is a win - win, reducing the costs of building upkeep and security whilst a building is empty or under-occupied and also partnering with a capable enterprise that helps to benefit the local community."

- Wadham College, Landlord

“Hayfield Road Residents Association have been very pleased at the effort that Makespace Oxford has put into making Aristotle Lane a place for the community at large. Although it is a private building, our residents have benefited from the numerous public events that Makespace has put on. We therefore believe that their continued presence would offer further opportunities for collaboration and would constitute an ongoing enhancement to the local area."

- Chair, Hayfield Rd Residents Association

“As a long-term resident and former City Councillor for St Margaret's and now for Wolvercote I offer my full support to Makespace’s continued use of Aristotle Lane. Makespace’s model offers valuable support to local businesses who are trying to make our world a better place and who are in need of an affordable home more than ever through the Coronavirus pandemic."

- Elizabeth Ward, City Councillor for Wolvercote and former councillor of St Margaret's Ward
