02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Based in Hamilton South Lanarkshire, the Trust caters for local youngsters but membership is not geographically restricted. The Scottish index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) 2006 identified specific issues in the South Lanarkshire area and the Trust firmly believes that a community focused sports club enables us to address some of the issues through the medium of football. We believe that by incorporating life skills and a healthy attitude to physical activity in the accessible community setting, we can go some way to addressing the issues identified.
