About this space
A place to settle in and get things done.
The Source is a central Oxford workspace and event venue for purpose-driven individuals, creatives and organisations with a positive cultural, social or environmental impact at their core. Run by Makespace Oxfordshire, it is designed to help community groups connect, build and thrive in an affordable, welcoming setting. At its heart is a shared office and co-working environment with fixed desks, a collaborative working community, fast Wi-Fi, a shared meeting room and kitchen facilities. It suits artists, makers, freelancers, charities and organisations seeking a practical base alongside others committed to positive change. The venue also offers event space for community gatherings, meetings and activities, with a projector, tables and chairs, a kitchenette and accessible facilities. Thoughtful touches include a sensory kit for neurodivergent visitors and a children’s play kit, making the space more accommodating for a wider range of attendees. With its focus on connection, creativity and community impact, The Source has an inclusive, purposeful atmosphere rather than a conventional corporate feel. Whether you need a desk for focused work or a sociable place to bring people together, it offers a supportive setting for ideas, collaboration and local action.
