As of 2008[update], Champs Chapel Museum is open on Sunday afternoons (April to September) from 2.30pm to 4.30pm and every first Sunday of the month (October to March) from 2.30pm to 3.30pm. Admission is free, although voluntary donations are welcomed. The museum is operated entirely by volunteers from local East Hendred Heritage Trust.

Snells Hall Community Centre

Back in the late sixties, the Church of England Primary School at East Hendred stood empty for a few years, when the new C of E School was built near the Furlong, which is a footpath connecting West and East Hendred. During the seventies money was raised by the parishioners to convert the old school into a new village hall. This was just about completed in time when the very old wooden village hall in Cat Street was accidently burned down. Over the years Snells Hall has been added to and improved to a very high standard and welcomes many users nearly every day of the week throughout the year.
