The Trust

Our committee of volunteers at Restore the Beacons Charitable Trust is committed to the project to restore the Beacons. We have set up a charitable trust and are looking to begin our fundraising.

What do we want to achieve?

The Restore the Beacons Charitable Trust's aim is to restore the Beacons to their former glory.

Before we start fundraising in earnest, we have had to establish a number of things including:

  • Who owns the Beacons (currently nobody has ownership of the structures) and the land

  • The support of key stakeholders

  • Whether the Beacons can actually be restored

  • What and how much money is required for the project

  • Our own legal and admin requirements for establishing a charitable trust and professional fundraising process.

Who are we?

The project scope and timeline

These things all take a lot of time and effort and (mostly) volunteer and donated hours and expertise. The Restore the Beacons Charitable Trust are grateful for the support we have had so far and will add more information once the building requirements of the project are established.
