Trust in the Community

Formerly the Pilton Partnership, the North Edinburgh Trust is a community development trust that aims to maximise community influence, address poverty and bring real economic and community benefits to the North Edinburgh area.

An independent community-led organisation, we support community involvement and participation within North Edinburgh, and in particular within the neighbourhood partnership structures. In addition we work closely with other agencies and stakeholders to help tackle the unacceptable levels of poverty that exist within North Edinburgh and improve the appeal and wealth of the local area. Through innovative initiatives and creative approaches, we aim to work together to ensure that the community is at the heart of local decision making and add real value to both the local community and the wider economy.
