The CLA Charitable Trust
The CLA Charitable Trust was founded by CLA members in 1980 to help disabled people in England and Wales.
Its objectives are threefold:
- To promote education about the countryside for young people from towns and cities and for disadvantaged people
- To provide facilities for people with a wide range of disabilities to enjoy the benefits of the countryside
- To support the advancement of education in agriculture, horticulture and conservation for disabled or disadvantaged people
The Charitable Trust achieves its objectives through grants and advice to those who wish to provide such facilities. To date, the Trust has awarded grants well in excess of £1.25 million.
