Voluntary Action South West Surrey

Our mission is to drive the transformation of lung health. We strive for a world where lung health is prioritised through better understanding, research, treatment and support.

Therefore we fund cutting-edge research, and provide advice and support for the 12 million people who will get a lung condition during their lifetime.

We also campaign for clean air and better NHS diagnosis and treatment. 

Brightwells Gostrey has been in the heart of the community for older people for over 30 years.  We provide a warm and friendly environment for senior citizens to meet. Offering a variety of vital activities and services including freshly cooked meals, daily activities, craft workshops, grandparent and toddler groups, outings and much more. We are proud to bring a sense of belonging, companionship, fun and enjoyment to those in their golden years.

We also provide a Community Meal Service, ensuring those who need it, regularly receive a nutritious freshly cooked meal and pudding. All dishes are prepared from scratch in our kitchen. However, it is far more than just a meal we are delivering.  Our team of volunteers are a friendly face to many, helping to reduce social isolation, something which has become so much more important in the recent months.

Community service is paramount in our approach to providing families with both awareness and possible solutions to all too common cancers and the problems that they can bring. 

  The awareness and detection work of Cancer Testing Services CIC is driven by a passion to find early indications of prostate cancer in men and also aims to lead to the uncovering of any other cancers, regardless of gender, that, through testing with a simple blood test, might assist in this early detection and the possibility of saving or extending life.  

We aim to learn, educate and use knowledge, to reduce death from prostate and other cancers that affect adults in the community and will reduce the impact upon the wider families that cancer complications and deaths provide. 

Crossroads Care Surrey is an established charity of over 30 years, offering a range of support services to carers and the people for whom they care.  We are committed to supporting people at an earlier stage in their care journey and recognise there can be a considerable length of time between a person needing some care and support periodically and them needing full time, round-the-clock care.

To enhance the lives of all those we come into contact with.

When you’ve had the most unfair start in life you can lose the way for the rest of your life. MCR Pathways is working until every young person has someone to help them find their way. We are changing lives through the power of mentoring.

We are an award winning school based youth mentoring charity supporting young people in schools across Surrey. We want to ensure more young people are helped to find their path to positive futures. 

Our volunteer mentors help young people to realise their full potential. They spend just an hour each week, in school, listening to and encouraging a young person. The relationship that develops is what makes the difference. Could you help a young person to build their confidence and discover their potential? 

Mentors and young people are carefully matched based on their likes, personality and life-experiences. Everyone is different, so we look for mentors from all walks of life. When one person mentors, two lives are changed.

Come and join our amazing community of mentors!

To provide model making hobbies to Former and Current Armed Forces and emergency Service personnel as a meaningful activity. And to promote the model making hobbies

 We are a registered charity created by a dedicated team of volunteers whose main purpose is to support and raise funds to assist ex-service personnel immediately when they find themselves in times of difficulty.  This is done by holding various events and the generous donations and goodwill of supporters. We run a memorial woodland which is lovingly tended to by our Founder and Chair, Paul ‘The Hat’ Cooling, and a team of volunteers. It is used by ex-soldiers, sailors and airmen and their families as a place of reflection and by local community groups and organisations like the cubs, scouts and schoolchildren to get closer to nature.

The Coalition is run and managed by Disabled people for Disabled people. 

We enable and empower Disabled people and those living with a long-term health condition to be an active and central part of the community.  

We proactively work with health, social care and community partners to co-produce services, strategies and policy.  

We campaign for choice and control to achieve our legal rights and entitlements.  We identify and respond to gaps in support to meet the needs of Disabled people.  We spotlight, celebrate and champion equity, diversity and inclusion.
