Ceremony as work begins on new Oxfordshire community hub
Olly Glover, MP for Didcot and Wantage, was in attendance at the ground-breaking event last week as were councillors Chris Walters and Andy Crawford.
Construction will take about 18 months and so the hub should be launched early in 2028.

According to the Kingsgrove, Wantage, website when complete the hub will include a multi-purpose hall, co-working spaces, a café, meeting rooms and outdoor gardens.
It will be run by a dedicated company, the Kingsgrove Community Hub, and the construction work is being delivered by local builder Edgar Taylor.
During the construction period the public square and adjacent parking spaces will be closed for the contractors and there are plans in place to minimise disruption including noise and dust.
