Stoke City Football Club's Community Trust was founded in 1989 and became a registered charity in 2004. Formerly known as the Club's Football in the Community scheme or Community Programme, the Trust engages with people in many varied ways to stimulate an environment in which they can realise their potential and subsequently accomplish more in whatever walk of life they choose for personal and professional development.
The Trust will be using the Skills Builder Universal Framework to support their education and community programmes, such as the Premier League's Primary Stars programme.
