Overview:

The Newark Trust is a grant-making charity that aims to improve the lives of people in Inverclyde. The trust's name is inspired by the historic Newark Castle, which symbolizes a re-igniting of community spirit that the charity hopes to emulate.

The Newark Trust works to fight hardship and disadvantage in Inverclyde by providing financial support to local organisations, charities, and constituted groups that align with its mission to create a positive future for the people of the area.

Our two main focus areas, which are supported throughout the year, are (1) fighting child poverty and (2) assisting children and young people with additional support needs. We also run a Community Places Fund annually to help organisations make changes to the place where they meet or provide their service.

Ambition, integrity, collaboration and empowerment are the key values that underpin the charity, and we work proactively through relationships and local networks to identify local projects and organisations to support. We believe that relationships with the organisations we support are hugely valuable and play a big role in our determination to be open and trusting grant-makers.
