Powerhouses Donors & Fundraisers

Our business donors and community fundraisers are incredible, making donations that enable Didcot Powerhouse to provide essential grants to local community organisations. 84% of our funding is from corporate sources and 16% is from community fundraising efforts.

Participants in the Oxford Half Marathon raised an amazing £3476 in October and the Get Fit Be Strong team of volunteers have raised £2080 by staging in a burpee and kettleball challenge during November, marking the business’s 10 year anniversary. We congratulate everyone for their efforts and are extremely grateful for every penny raised.

Our Powerhouse Donors

Didcot has Powerhouses on its doorstep

Didcot has many businesses and Milton Park, Harwell Science and Innovation Campus and Culham Science Centre alone are home to over 15,000 employees inside over 500 different innovative, exciting businesses. Many more employees are located at Southmead Industrial Park, Rebellion Film Studios and retail outlets across Didcot and the local villages. Some of these businesses have become donors, fundraisers and sponsors to The Didcot Powerhouse Fund and you can see our donors listed above.

Ambassadors

A group of dedicated volunteer ambassadors represent the Fund inside their own business and community networks. The ambassador’s role is to postively promote Powerhouse and to assist in fundraising for the Fund. If this is a role that would interest you, please get in touch with our team via email.
