The Trust is a registered charity formed in 1962. It is run by a group of local people who act as Trustees and give their time and expertise on a voluntary basis. They meet regularly to consider applications for grants from local people in need of support

Where does the money come from

The money held by the Trust comes from a variety of sources - legacies, donations and covenants from businesses in the Town who wish to support the local community and from personal gifts. The funds are invested in Stocks and Shares to provide a regular income which is then given to groups in the community as grants
