While our drop-ins are a crucial part of what we do, there's so much more that makes The Meeting Room
Fundraising
Our events
We were honoured to be one of two beneficiary charities chosen by the American Women of Surrey International Group for their 2025-26 season.
At their end of year get-together in June, we received a cheque for £4.750 from the head of philanthropy, Nicole Hall. We are thankful for all their hard work and especially the wonderful Christmas gifts they provided for our annual lunch.
In late 2025, we were proud to have several major events taking place in aid of The Meeting Room.
Carol Rossell took on an extraordinary challenge - walking over 1,200 miles from John O’Groats to Land’s End in memory of her dad Jonny and her nan Linda, raising funds for our work.
Jonny had been a client of The Meeting Room and Carol is the niece of Harriet, one of our trustees.
​
Supporters were able to follow her training updates, track her progress on Strava and donate to her remarkable effort through her JustGiving page.

Florence Marathon
Charity Boxing Match
We were thrilled to see Joe and Bella complete the Florence Marathon in support of The Meeting Room.
The run was originally planned by our wonderful volunteer Christina Taylor, but after a fall during training she was unable to take part. In an incredible gesture, Joe and Bella stepped in and ran on her behalf instead.
​
Thank you to Christina, Joe and Bella, and to everyone who donated and offered support - every contribution helped us make a difference.
George Edgley (Harriet’s son) took part in his first ever charity boxing match at The Steel Yard in London.
​
The event was attended by over 500 people and included live auctions, white collar and semi-professional bouts. Supporters were able to buy tickets and donate in support of George’s efforts, helping to raise valuable funds for The Meeting Room.
​
Well done, George - and thank you to everyone who supported him.
