Oxford Food Hub reconfirms as an Oxford Living Wage employer for 2026-27

We are proud to announce that we have reconfirmed our status as an Oxford Living Wage employer for another year, continuing our commitment to fair pay and supporting valued employees in one of the UK’s most expensive cities.

The Oxford Living Wage ensures a minimum wage of £14.06 per hour for 2026-27, set at 95% of the London Living Wage as determined by the Living Wage Foundation. The rates are calculated each year by the Resolution Foundation using a robust methodology to ensure people earn enough to afford a minimum acceptable standard of living.

This renewed accreditation means that everyone working at Oxford Food Hub, including regularly contracted and part-time staff, will continue to be paid at or above this rate.

Steve Hamon, CEO at Oxford Food Hub, said: “Reaffirming our commitment to the Oxford Living Wage is about staying true to our values. By paying our staff fairly and with dignity, we’re not only supporting the people who make our work possible, but also strengthening the wider community we exist to serve. It’s one small but important part of our commitment to a fairer, more resilient Oxford.”
