10 Indies Events In Oxford This September

Posted September 1, 2020

The 1st of September! There is definitely an autumn chill in the air as a new academic year starts, and we all get back into some sort of routine, whether that’s heading back to the office or school, or working from home. September always brings with it a sense of optimism and renewed sense of energy for the months ahead, so our Independent Oxford events round up this month brings together events to inspire. From art and culture to fitness and food, there’s something to help you feel connected and grounded this month. >>

I’m really passionate about Independent Oxford and supporting and promoting independent businesses in Oxfordshire. Indie businesses are the life blood of our towns, cities and communities, but they need support to survive and thrive. Creating a network that provides a space for indies to find peer support, knowledge and information is so important, and means businesses are far more likely to continue. Supporting indies means a stronger local economy and a closer, inclusive community for all.
