The Woodstock Residents’ Association (WRA) committee is here to help connect you with your neighbours and address common concerns in our vibrant Woodstock community. We act as a point of contact to share information, help you raise issues, and facilitate communication between residents, local authorities like the City of Cape Town, and other organisations to achieve shared goals.

Want to get more involved in your community?
