A Community Trust is an organisation set up by local people to tackle local issues and to improve the quality of life in their community.
These community organisations:
- are owned and managed by the local community
- aim to achieve the sustainable regeneration of a community or address a range of economic, social, environmental and cultural issues within a community
- are independent but seek to work in partnership with other private, public and third sector organisations
- aim to reduce dependency on grant support by generating income through enterprise and the ownership of assets. All trading surpluses are principally reinvested in the organisation or the community.
A number of local communities now have CTs, including Pittenweem, Tayport and Crail.
Information about Boarhills and Dunino Community Trust can be found on this website, on the BDCT Facebook page, and displayed on the Boarhills Village Noticeboard.
Boarhills and Dunino Community Trust is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity.
