Ducklington’s very own Warm Wecome Space was originally set up by St Bartholomew’s in November 2022. It’s still going strong and has its own independent committee running it as it’s very much a stand-alone community project and not funded by the church. St Bartholomew’s is responsible for managing the Warm Welcome funds but they are specifically restricted to this project. Warm Welcome Space is open to everyone; from all faiths to none.. Everyone.
It is held in the Village Hall each Thursday from 11:30 until 3pm. It is open to all with no charge and with refreshments provided. You can check the details on the Events Calendar each week.
We have been supported by donations from individuals as well as The Ducklington with Hardwick Charity, Good Companions and the Ducklington Village Hall Committee – we are so grateful for their support. A major source of funding this year has been from The Connected Communities Fund. This is a partnership of OCVA and Community First Oxfordshire and has been made available by Oxfordshire County Council. We are so grateful for everyone’s support!
The committee responsible for running Warm Welcome Space comprises:
Gill Long and Johan Schoeman, Co-Ordinators Email: ducklingtonwarmwelcome@gmail.com
Jane Dines Treasurer
