Welcome to the Community Sports Trust
The Community Sports Trust is a not for profit Community Interest Company set up to provide support, advice and guidance to communities who want more and better sports opportunities in their local area.
We work with volunteers and local groups who are keen to have active communities, and who require extra ‘know how’ to make it happen.
We help with developing and promoting new opportunities, finding funding, training volunteers, developing facilities and setting up the necessary structures to keep it all growing in years to come.
Partners and Supporters
We are very grateful to the following organisations who have supported the establishment of the Community Sports Trust, and for their financial contributions our projects.
We have also been supported by UnLtd, a charity which supports social entrepreneurs - people with vision, drive, commitment and passion who want to change the world for the better.
