The Queen's Jubilee Youth
Trust for Wivenhoe
The Queen's Jubilee Youth Trust for
Wivenhoe was established in December 2001 in order to benefit the
development of local young people and youth activities in Wivenhoe.
The
Trust is particularly aimed at situations where no other sources of
funding is available or appropriate. The Trust aims to benefit
individuals, groups and established organisations and it will do its
utmost to remain open, flexible and as sympathetic as possible to people's
needs.
The Trust will comprise a network of
people in the community - young and not so young - who will identify and
advise on worthy causes, be they in relation to a disadvantaged
individual, a group of youngsters with a worthwhile project or one of our
Youth organisations requiring help for a special project.
The inspiration for the Trust arose
from the occasion of the Queen's Golden Jubilee, in 2002 - a time for
local as well as National celebration and, we hope, of generosity to make
a real difference to the lives of some of our young people.
