What is The Craven Trust?

The Craven Trust is a permanent, independent grant-making charity dedicated to supporting community projects in the Craven area.

It operates by building a permanent capital endowment from individual and corporate donations, to provide a renewable source of income for grant- making year after year.
It is flexible because its charitable objectives are sufficiently broad
to meet new and emerging needs.
The Craven Trust has a sound investment policy, managed by independent
financial consultants.
The trustees ensure that the Trust is run as economically as possible
and with minimum overheads.
The Craven Trust is a member of the national Community Foundation
network.
