LVC Trust

Creating Opportunity. Strengthening Organisations.

LVC Trust works with people, charities, CICs and communities to create meaningful and lasting change. We support individuals facing barriers to opportunity through trauma-informed community, employment and enterprise programmes, while helping charities and CICs turn ideas into sustainable organisations through registration, governance, board development and organisational support.

We also work with community leaders and organisations to develop stronger communities and create new opportunities for those they serve. Everything we do is grounded in lived experience, practical expertise and a belief in the potential of people and communities to thrive.

Who We Are

More than charity consultants.

LVC Trust brings together professional expertise, lived experience and a deep understanding of the communities we serve. We don't simply advise from the outside, we work alongside people and organisations to understand their challenges, identify opportunities and make change happen.

From supporting individuals towards employment and self-employment, to building stronger charities, registering new ideas - from CICs to charities, to developing effective boards and supporting community initiatives, our approach is practical, trauma-informed and focused on creating lasting impact. We act as specialist delivery partners whilst also running our own community initiatives.
