AN EVENTS firm which helps Oxfordshire schools rent space for cash has changed its name.

2JEvents, started by Jemma Phibbs and James Lloyd while still at school, is now School Space.

Five years ago, the pair were head boy and girl at Wheatley Park when they began renting out classrooms, halls and playgrounds for parties, conferences and activities.

The social enterprise has generated more than £200,000 for schools in the south east.

These include Didcot Girls, New Marston, Matthew Arnold, Orchard Fields in Banbury, Sandhills, St Birinus, St Ebbes, St Gregory the Great and Wood Farm in Headington.
