Each year, we support a chosen local charity through fundraising, volunteering and donation opportunities across the Estate. At our flagship events – including the Festival of Speed, Revival, and Goodwoof, we also team up with selected charities to raise vital funds. We welcome volunteers to help collect donations on the day, and in return, you’ll get to enjoy the rest of the event for free.
Being the Goodwood Estate Charity has been a wonderful experience. We have enjoyed working closely with the Goodwood team on events, staff fundraising, and at the collection days at the Racecourse and Motor Circuit. The significant amount raised will make a tremendous difference to many local people affected by dementia.
