Community is the foundation of the ethos at Winnersh Triangle Business Park. Giving back is an important part of this, from supporting charities, to getting involved with local community initiatives and hosting occupier events.
The business park is also home to a host of amazing amenities that are open to the local community surrounding Winnersh, Wokingham, Woodley and beyond. These include the state-of-the-art gym Move HQ, an astro turf pitch, award-winning fitness hub, the newly refurbished Crowne Plaza hotel and a co-working space and choice of cafés. For occupiers we have recently restarted our free bootcamps (booking online required) and a host of other events, walks and sports onsite. All great opportunities for becoming a proactive part of the community.
Giving back
The charity of the year for Winnersh Triangle Business Park is The Cowshed. The Cowshed is a fantastic crisis charity based in Reading. They provide clothing and other items for individuals and families in Berkshire experiencing hardship. We have donated items including clothes and bikes that were given to good homes and people who really needed them. The team on site also give up their time, to help support them too.
We do not just support our charity of the year, for International Women’s Day we teamed up with Smart Works and organised a collection to support their fantastic work. They are a charity who help women across Berkshire have access to work-appropriate outfits as well as offering interview training and advice. The clothes that occupier’s donated were given to women who are currently unemployed and will make a real difference, helping women feel more confident and to help them to secure their dream job. We are also collecting for #trashtotreasure for Crisis at the moment which is Frasers Property UK’s, who own the park, charity of the year.
Wokingham Food Bank is another charity that we have recently supported, having run a food bank drive for Easter, with boxes in each multi-let reception on the business park. We donated a host of food and treats including Easter eggs, which were donated to homes in need in the local area.
