The Gatehouse has had a busy last quarter, which has included on average 384 visits a week to the drop in cafe for the homeless and vulnerably housed. The extreme hot weather severely impacts the rough sleepers so if you are able to purchase a bottle of water for an individual that you see, this is of great help.

The Gatehouse continues to operate with a volunteer model so if you are 18 years old or over and want to directly impact/support the Oxford City homeless community, please email admin@oxfordgatehouse.org expressing an interest and we will get you booked in for an induction into the service.
