Welcome to The Gatehouse

The Gatehouse is an Oxford-based charity providing food, shelter and company to Oxford's homeless and poorly housed population.

It is open to anyone who is 25 or over:

Tuesdays to Saturdays from 5p.m. to 7p.m. and Sundays from 3p.m. to 5.p.m.

This site is intended for users of the service, those who volunteer or work at the Gatehouse, and anyone interested in finding out more about what we (and other agencies in Oxford) offer.

As well as this official Gatehouse site we also have our own creative website constructed by and with our guests. You will find details of the Wednesday Art Group, creative writing, photography, the GateWay free paper and other activities.

See also a scrapbook of photos from years gone by.
