Shoreditch Trust
Shoreditch Trust is a registered charity helping local people to improve health, wellbeing, social networks and opportunities, which we support through enterprising initiatives and property ownership. Our extensive range of programmes supports people to make positive changes in their lives, whether for improved physical or mental health and wellbeing, to escape feelings of isolation, engage more the community or increase employment opportunities. Our Blue Marble culinary training scheme offers key skills, pastoral support and guidance to 16-25 year olds facing difficult circumstances. It is based at our canal-side Waterhouse Restaurant, which is also available for private hire, and bespoke Cookery School events/parties/away days. Our iNDUSTRY sites are affordable workspaces for start-ups and small businesses. From individual desk space to studios and spaces for meetings or events, businesses can develop and grow through working and socialising together in the heart of a growing creative hub. Proceeds from Shoreditch Trust’s enterprises are re-invested in our charitable initiatives.
