The Panathlon Foundation benefits the lives of thousands of young people with disabilities and special educational needs every year. The foundation works with disadvantaged young people to give them the opportunity to take part in competitive sport across England and North Wales. Woodlanders actively get involved in events to raise money for and awareness of Panathlon’s work and impact.

In 2022, the UK’s largest event of its kind, Ride London, saw Woodland participants start in London to take on the challenging 100 miles riding towards Braintree before returning to the capital, finishing at Tower Bridge. We are proud to support the Foundation’s all-important work of providing opportunity to young people with disabilities and special educational needs across the UK to express themselves, connect, learn, and feel empowered through competitive sporting events.

In 2022 alone, Woodland raised a total of £30,541.50 across a range of activities and events in support of Panathlon.

Woodland Group is a proud, long-standing partner of Essex County Cricket. Our close-knit relationships with the local cricket grounds, teams, players, fellow partners, and related charitable organisations enable us to deliver strong support.

Since joining the list of well-respected partners of the Chelmsford Rugby Football Club in 2011, we have been supporting this local club run by volunteers in its facilitation of the sport to children of all ages, aided by passionate staff support at matches and behind the scenes by everyone at Woodland.

The Essex and Hertfordshire Air Ambulance (EHAAT) provides free life-saving Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) to Essex, Hertfordshire, and surrounding areas. The 24/7 service by helicopters and rapid response vehicles is delivered by the charity without access to National Lottery funding and with only limited support from the Government. At Woodland Group, we have been partnered with EHAAT since 2011, and continue to support its key fundraising events through our headline sponsorship of the annual EHAAT Motorcycle Run, which sees thousands of community members and Woodlanders raise much-needed funds for the life-saving charity every year.
