Goodwood supports a variety of exceptional charities, raising money and awareness throughout the year. This is achieved by raising money on behalf of charities through our headline events and direct donations. In 1976 we set up a charitable trust (The Goodwood Education Trust) to provide educational opportunities primarily for school children. Our team are given the opportunity to select a charity of their choice to be supported by Goodwood, year-round, for 2 years. We work with this charity to provide maximum opportunities to get involved, whilst raising as much as we can for them.


It never feels like coming to work, just coming to a place where everyone has fun. We get to do some amazing things and nothing beats the feeling of going home knowing our customers have experienced something special.
