Originally founded in 1966, the aims of the trust are to support skiing to a broad spectrum of young people who are currently at school or within the education system and also to assist research into ski safety and the impact of skiing on the environment.  Grants are made twice a year to schools, research students, armed forces personnel and individuals who fall within the aims of the Trust.

In Britain the snow is not readily available down the road or at the local sports centre. Artificial ski slopes can lack the challenge of the high mountains for the more adventurous. Since reaching the snow is expensive, it is clear that skiing simply costs more than other sports. This is where we come in, helping youngsters have the real mountain experience. If like us you, your family and friends have had enormous pleasure from skiing, why not join us in helping others to enjoy the sport as well? With this in mind the Trust hopes that every keen skier will soon be sporting a Skiers Trust badge.

This is an effective way to provide a good pool of funds for us to assist many more of those in need.  We only ask for an annual commitment (av. donation modest £25.00) to become a member as a gift aid donation.  This allows the Trust to benefit from tax concessions. In return you become a full member with voting rights. You will receive a membership badge and an annual summary of the Trust’s activities and accounts.

Come and join us. Give a little back to your sport whilst revelling in the magic of the winter wonderland and help fulfill young people’s dreams of the mountains.

The trust has for some time now made special arrangements for families to create their own bespoke fund.  This arrangement means that parents can find donors who wish to sponsor their children in pursuit of excellence within the sport and thereby take advantage to the Trust's charitable status.

The trust has expanded considerably over the past ten years and has managed to increase the grants to a degree that more money has been distributed in the last two years than  since its foundation.  As the only able bodied charity within skiing the trust has a distinct and unique role in fostering the sport we created and thereby we have a duty to nurture our young enthusiasts.
