The Yorkshire Water Community Trust was set up primarily to help those individuals and families in real need, and who are unable to pay their water charges to Yorkshire Water.

The Yorkshire Water Community Trust is a registered charity, and was launched by Yorkshire Water in August 1995 as a direct response to the obvious financial need of a proportion of its customer base.

The Trust provides monetary assistance to those customers in genuine need, and is governed by a board of Trustees consisting of senior business people and heads of community groups, such as advice agencies, councils and charities.

The Board of Trustees is a committee which is totally independent of Yorkshire Water.

They meet quarterly in June,September,December and March each year.
