Westway Trust
www.westway.orgWestway Trust is a registered charity and one of the first social enterprises in the UK. We were formed out of local protest in 1971 when the A40 Westway Flyover was built, leaving 23 acres of derelict land. We manage and regenerate this land for the benefit of the community. We are now an emblem of urban regeneration; transforming the Westway into a vital hub underneath one of the city’s busiest roads and a safe, attractive environment for everyone to enjoy and benefit from. As a self-sustaining not-for-profit organisation, everything we earn from the land is put straight back into it, to serve the local community. We offer education and training programmes, run two popular sports and fitness facilities, and provide space and development opportunities to individuals, businesses, enterprise, artists and charities. We promote arts and education; building on our North Kensington heritage to turn the Westway into a cultural centre. In everything we do our primary focus is to create opportunity and access for those most in need. In 40 years we have become a community stronghold; using our unique resources and connections we work to improve health and employment in the borough, often in collaboration with government and local organisations. By making smart use of our land and resources, we aim to realise the full potential of our North Kensington community, today and tomorrow.
