The Grange Community Association (GCA) was established in 1974 to build and run a leisure centre for the community. Now the Grange Leisure Centre is run by the local authority, the charity awards grants to groups offering community and sports facilities.

The charity has recently elected a new chairman, former Midhurst Town Council clerk Joan Hursthouse.
