Chipping Campden Community Trust
A charitable trust established in 1995About the Trust
Chipping Campden Community Trust (CCCT) is a Charitable Trust established in 1995. 95% of income comes from legacies from the Tryphena Wood and the Fred Badger Trust. Even though these funds are restricted to helping older people, we have been able to accrue unrestricted funds from additional donations and bequests, to support projects for younger people and organisations. We would like to increase this fund in order to do more for people of all ages in the community.
The principal aim of the Trust is to enable older people to remain at home where possible and to lead active productive lives.
The Trust also uses the limited unrestricted funds to support individuals and groups where no official support is available or limited.
The Area We Cover
Chipping Campden, Broad Campden, Mickleton, Aston and Weston-sub-Edge, Willersey, Ebrington, Saintbury, Charingworth and the Hidcotes.
Community Trust Service Provider
The Trust has grant aided Louise Kington to enable her to provide a service for the older people living in our area. Louise visits local groups and individual at home, to identify needs and make or enable referrals to the appropriate bodies. All advise is free and confidential. Louise works closely with a wide range of organisations, voluntary and statutory.

From the restricted funds for the older people we have supported many individuals and organisations including Campden Voluntary Help Group, Cotswold Friends who provide a befriending and carer respite and transport services, The Campden Business Forum who is working towards regenerating the commercial centre of the Town.
The Trust has recently given a grant to Peridot Digital Ltd towards a disabled ramp for the entrance of the new relocated Post Office. It has bought an electric piano in Badgers Field community room which is used by and gives pleasure to several groups in the town.
