In March 2010 we achieved Development Trust status and became East Marsh Community Trust. Under this banner we still operate Community Chest and Community Advice Services, with new services due soon. Please click on the services menu to see all the services we provide and to learn more about them.
More recently Community Advice Services have moved from the Second Avenue Resource Center on the Nunsthorpe to East Marsh Community Trust's main offices on Kent Street.
