Stakeholders
Since January 2026 the Hub has acquired several ‘stakeholders’ in the village. They have received funding to either support their existing services or to set up new initiatives, all designed to be of benefit to the elderly in the Eynsham community. Grants awarded have ranged from £500 to £4000 thus far.
Funding is received from the University every six months, beginning January 2026, for a three year period. The first half of this year’s money has already been allocated by Mark with the next tranche arriving in July. Most existing ‘stakeholders’ will receive ongoing funding, but there will be scope for new groups to apply for support.
Day Centre (Monday Club)
Every Monday (excluding Bank Holidays) we meet from 1000-1430 in the Village Hall. The Club is open to any member of the community aged over 60 who enjoys plenty of fun and good company.
Re-threads
Two hour weekly sessions in a warm and friendly environment for the over 65 year olds at Mill Street Studios. The sessions are centred around upcycling and repurposing fabrics and textiles. Fun company and lots of help for any project you can imagine recycling thrown out clothes and materials.
St Leonard's Church
