Astley Ainslie Community Trust exists to protect and realise the community vision for Astley Ainslie.

We work to make sure the future of the site is:

• Open and accessible — with safe routes for walking, wheeling and cycling
• Green and nature-rich — protecting trees, biodiversity, tranquillity and key views
• Rooted in health and wellbeing — continuing the site’s long health-giving purpose
• Welcoming and community-focused — with a community hub offering flexible community spaces for local groups
• Respectful of heritage — bringing historic buildings back into meaningful use
• Community-led — with local people involved in decisions about what happens next
• Inclusive and useful — supporting young people, older people, families, disabled people and local organisations
• Planned with care — so change is phased, thoughtful and in the public interest
