During the year, Greenoak funded 13 organisations including donations to Woking Community Responders, Woking Hospice, YMCA, Let’s Read, SureStart, CAB, Surrey Welfare Rights, Contact a Family, Woking Mediation, and Woking Community Play.
We also provided over £1000 for our residents’ activities and extended computer access for residents.

We have recently given £5000 to further Woking YMCA’s exceptional work with helping young people build a future.
In addition to Woking YMCA’s new Grove Court Project, it runs a Children’s Centre, Counselling Service, and Alternative Education Programme. Their many other exciting projects include a recording studio, act as a Gig venue and the centre provides a safe, chilled out environment for young people.
An excited group of children at Freemantles School, Woking were presented with iPads to help them with communication skills by Gill Baker, Chair of Greenoak Community Focus which supports many community projects in Woking.
