About Us

Originally established as Croxteth Community Trust in 1988, Alt Valley Community Trust was founded following the successful occupation of a local comprehensive school to save it from council closure. The charity became Alt Valley Community Trust in 2005, and has since developed from an educational charity into an anchor organisation that makes a significant contribution to the local area, transforming sports centres, libraries, colleges, and community hubs.

Based in North East Liverpool, our mission is to cultivate positive change and promote sustainable communities, where everyone is able to achieve their full potential. Our activities improve access to education and training, support people entering employment and provide community engagement and sport-based provision to improve the quality of life for local residents.
