Gloucester Civic Trust was established in 1972, they actively encourage the appreciation and conservation of Gloucester’s heritage and are a major part of the promotion of city tourism.
The independent charity run by volunteers aims to ensure that regeneration programmes respect and complement Gloucester’s diverse past. Our income comes from subscriptions, donations and guided tours.
The Trust works closely with local residents’ groups and businesses to encourage vibrant communities. “Our projects help to improve the quality of life of local people, as well as educating both residents and visitors about our city’s rich culture and history” “We want Gloucester to be a pleasant place to visit and a safe and clean city for all those who live and work here”.
Anyone can join Gloucester Civic Trust with members coming from all walks of life. The volunteers are encouraged to involve themselves in local issues and projects and to make a difference.
We have various committees which play their part in delivering our heritage programmes. The Civic Trust have The Queens Award For Voluntary Service-The MBE for volunteer groups.
