Aims and Objectives

The aim of the British Judo Trust is to generate additional income that can directly support the development of the sport of judo within the UK.  Money raised by the Trust will be new resources, which will complement and expand the existing development work carried out by the British Judo Association. 

The Trust is not being set-up to replace any existing work, its aim is simply to enhance the development of the sport in more targeted areas and for more targeted people. 

The British Judo Trust is a limited company with charitable status, and is a separate entity to the British Judo Association.  In accordance with the charitable objectives set out in the Trust's governing document, the Trust will support activity within three key programmes:

1. Widening Participation

2. Developing People

3. Facility Development

The work of the Trust will not be strictly limited to these programmes, but they will be the main focus.
