Our Cause

The World Conker Championships has a key motive that isn't always widely known. The main aim of the event since it began has been to raise money for charities that support the visually impaired. So far since 1965 we have raised £420,000 for charity, further information on the origins of the event can be found in our history.

Through the years our donations have been used in a multitude of ways, this includes:

This is only a fraction of all the causes we have supported. Listing them all would take its own website! Since our relocation to Southwick we have also made a contribution to the village hall and church to show our gratitude for their support.
