UPDATED 5th Nov 2020
Please note: many venues remain open, we will continue updating throughout lockdown & as updates come in.
Further to our messages on social media, we fully appreciate this is an awful time and we would like to do all we can to help. So this post will serve as a rolling list of local food & drink deliveries and/or takeaways, to help those who are self-isolating, as well as other initiatives.
Please feel free to tag us or message directly with offers/ideas/schemes that support each other and our community and we will add to this list. Kudos go to Hannah whose original idea this was.
This list will be updated regularly, but for the latest updates please follow us on Instagram, where we will be sharing posts from local businesses as they come in: @bittenoxford. I’ve saved a new ‘C-19 Nov’ featured story section to our Instagram bio for easy access.
