Support

The Market Square in Eynsham, showing St Leonard's Church and the Bartholomew Room

EMHC is an independent charity and there is no entrance fee to the Museum. Therefore, to cover our running costs, we rely on donations from the public, grants, income from card and book sales, support from Friends, and Corporate Partnerships.

If you would like to support us and help to secure the future of the Museum, please consider helping in one of these ways.

Gift Aid

If you are a UK taxpayer, you can ‘gift aid’ your donation or Friends membership fee. Gift aid is a government scheme that allows us to claim tax relief on your donation or fee. If you would like to do this, please kindly complete the Gift Aid form (download it by clicking the link below), then post or hand it in to 7 Abbey Farm Barns, Station Road, Eynsham, Witney OX29 4FA.

Join us as a volunteer

We rely on the generosity of our volunteers, who help the Museum through a wide range of activities. Perhaps you could help by welcoming visitors to the Museum, cataloguing the Museum’s collections, helping to run children’s workshops and school visits, or in other ways. Whatever time you can offer would be very helpful. We’d love you to join us!

Corporate Partnership

The support of the business community is crucial to help fund the exhibition and education programmes that are at the heart of EMHC’s mission. Corporate Partnership is a great way for your company to help us, and we can offer benefits in return. 

Corporate Partners can get involved in different ways, such as sponsoring exhibitions or providing practical help. Corporate Partnership is a great opportunity to raise your public profile and to engage with the local community. We will draw attention to your support through exhibition displays and our marketing activities.
