Bringing Wycombe together
Wycombians Organise is a platform for the town. We point you to what's going on, connect you with the groups already doing brilliant things, and bring Wycombe together to decide what happens next. Non-partisan, volunteer-run, open to everyone.
The town that made chairs for the world has a seat for you

What we do
Four ways we bring Wycombe together
Signpost
We point people to the channels, groups and services that already exist, so nobody misses out just because an algorithm never showed them.
Connect
Our directory maps Wycombe's charities, clubs and community groups, and helps them find each other as well as new members.
Volunteer
Join our volunteer bank and we'll match you with practical, time-boxed ways to help, starting from as little as two hours.
Convene
Town meetings open to every Wycombian, where the town sets its own priorities and every session ends with commitments.
The directory
What's out there in Wycombe
There are hundreds of charities and community organisations based in and around High Wycombe. This mini directory is our growing map of them. Search by name or filter by theme to find groups to join, causes to support, and places to belong.
Groups with a specific address are pinned above. Groups that operate town-wide or district-wide aren't shown on the map, but are listed below.
Nothing matches that search yet. That might mean the group is missing from our directory, not missing from the town.
Tell us about a groupRun a group we've missed? Add it to the directory. Listing is free and always will be.
Add your group
Get your group in the directory
You'll need a website or social link so people can find you, plus a contact we can reach if we have questions.
We'll store this to review and get in touch if needed. See our Privacy Policy.
The volunteer bank
Two hours for the town
You don't need spare evenings every week to make a difference. Join our volunteer bank and, when a Wycombe organisation needs hands, we'll share the opportunity with you. Take the ones that fit your life, skip the ones that don't. Deliver on foot, make calls from home, or lend a skill for an afternoon.
We don't run the projects; the town's organisations do. We just make sure that when they ask, Wycombe answers.

Give two hours when it suits you
We'll only get in touch when there's something that matches — no spam, no rota you're locked into.
We'll only use this to contact you about volunteering. See our Privacy Policy.
Town Meeting 2
Pull up a chair. The town is talking.
Over a hundred Wycombians came to our first town meeting. This autumn we do it again, bigger and more representative of the whole town. Expect paired conversations with people you've never met, and working sessions at three scales: your street, your neighbourhood, your town. Every table ends with commitments, owners and a date to report back.

Vision 2035
Where creativity and opportunity collide
Wycombe deserves to feel proud of itself. This vision is set by Wycombians at our town meetings, not handed down — less a plan than a direction, pulling together the best of what's already happening here.
From chairmakers to creators
Wycombe's makers, designers and creatives are already crafting its next chapter. We want to help them find each other, so more of it takes root here.
On the corridor, not beside it
Wycombe sits on the Oxford–Cambridge growth corridor, with a university in the town centre. We want to help the people already chasing that opportunity pull in the same direction.
A town that showcases itself
There's a young, creative town here already, doing more than most people realise. Our job is to help it showcase what's already good.
Small things, done by many hands
Small, local efforts already fix the small stuff: planters, clean-ups, street events. We want to help connect them, and seed-fund the best ideas.
A plan of our own
Plenty of people here are already thinking hard about Wycombe's future. We want to help bring those voices together, from the neighbourhood up.
Get involved
Take a seat at the table
Join the mailing list to hear about Town Meeting 2 first, add your group to the directory, or sign up to the volunteer bank and give two hours when it suits you. Chairmaking optional.
We'll only email you occasional updates. See our Privacy Policy.
Why the swan? Why the chairs?
Made together, by hand, by the river
The swan is Buckinghamshire's oldest badge, swimming through our W. The chairs are Wycombe's: two centuries of chairmakers built this town's name. Nobody makes a chair alone, and nobody fixes a town alone — Wycombians Organise carries that on.
