Rudding Holiday Park: £1 Million of Giving Back

Rudding Park - Parks Make Places

In 2024, Rudding Holiday Park proved just how powerful a holiday park’s role in the community can be. Through its Giving Back initiative, the park donated more than £1 million to good causes – supporting everything from annual charity donations and matched staff fundraising to volunteering programmes and jobseeker support.

By hosting events that alone raised over £900,000, Rudding has shown that holiday businesses can make a lasting difference, creating an impact that reaches far beyond their gates.

Rudding Park Community

Here’s what they’ve achieved:

From donating clothing for job interviews to supporting rehab programmes, Rudding Park truly goes above and beyond!

This is part of the #ParksMakePlaces campaign, celebrating how holiday parks support people, places and the planet.
