Significant events
- “2024 has been an important year for Woodcraft Folk, filled both with challenges and wonderful achievements. The organisation has been getting ready for our Centenary, with huge amounts of work done to make sure that 2025 will be a year filled with hope and celebration.”
- “During 2024, General Council (the Board of Trustees) had to make some difficult decisions to help support the financial sustainability of our residential centres and campsites, and the organisation as a whole.”
- “Venturer Committee was reformed. We were gifted a Tree of Hope which will be planted at Biblins. We saw a stunning response to the last fundraiser of the year, which added a significant amount to the Camp 100 solidarity fund.”
- “More young members joined General Council, bringing fresh perspectives and energy to our work and their presence strengthens our commitment to ensuring that youth voices remain at the heart of everything we do.”
- “Looking ahead, 2025 promises to be truly special as it marks our 100th year. Plans are well underway for our centenary International Camp; Camp 100, an event that will bring the Folk and our IFM-SEI comrades together to celebrate.”
- “During 2024, the Membership Team supported the development of 16 new groups”
- “All of Woodcraft Folk centres have had an extremely busy year, hosting more overnight guests than 2019 (28,000+) - demonstrating that they have truly recovered from the impact of the pandemic.”
- “Following the removal of trees to Ash Dieback in 2023, Cudham celebrated lots of tree planting in 2024 as part of a 10 year reforesting plan benefiting from support from the Woodland Trust”
- “At Woodcraft Folk's Annual General Meeting in 2023 members supported a motion which called upon Woodcraft Folk to make all camps, residential activities and weekly group nights net zero carbon by 2030.”
- “Activity throughout 2024 has included: Installation of additional solar panels at Biblins Youth Campsite”
- “Two staff were made redundant during 2024 (2023: none). The charity made redundancy payments to affected staff of £2,913”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
