We work with individuals and groups, with the aim to ‘to help make Broughton a better place to live and work.’

The Broughton Trust was launched in summer 2000, and has grown rapidly since, with nearly 80 people and groups signed up as Members.

Although the Trust is still a fairly new organisation there have been significant achievements, and we now run and support a wide range of projects and groups in Broughton. We plan projects to work with each other and to link with work in other organisations active in the area. We also try to use the experience and information we gain from our work to positively influence developments affecting the community.
