The Bridge Trust Ltd
The Bridge Trust Ltd is a Bristol-based charity, engaged in relief, education, training, and development. We work in India and Zambia as well as in the UK and other developed nations.
Our UK Support
The Trust also partners with individuals, churches and charities in the UK who support marginalised people or those in poverty. We can share experience and offer mentoring and advice. We introduce churches to situations and people with different needs and link them to projects where they can make a difference – where they link faith and action.
Short-term volunteering overseas
When we take a team overseas, it is often possible for supporters of the Trust to join us, and help us work alongside our friends in different nations. Please contact us for further details.
