Mayor of Newbury's Charitable Trust
The Mayor's Charitable Trust is a charity run by each Mayor of Newbury during their term in office.
Previously known as the Mayor's Benevolent Fund, its activities have been known to exist since the 1920s, but has been a registered charity since 1998. The charity's aims are:
-
- Oversee the fundraising for a charitable organisation, as decided by the Mayor of Newbury.
- To act as a key link to ensure a joined up and co-ordinated working relationship between the Mayor of Newbury’s Office and the Mayor’s chosen charity for the Civic/Municipal Year.
The Civic Mayor may determine one organisation that he or she wishes to support during their mayoral year as agreed at the Annual Meeting of Newbury Town Council.
The Mayor's chosen charity for the municipal year 2025-2026 is Berkshire Youth.
