Clarets Trust (Burnley Supporters Society)
Directory of Co-operatives
The Clarets Trust is an Industrial & Provident Society set up in September 2004. We are a voluntary, democratic and not-for-profit organisation run by supporters, for supporters.
There are now over 130 Supporters’ Trusts up and down the country all making a difference at their football and rugby league clubs and in their communities. The Clarets Trust is still a very young organisation. By forging partnerships with prominent local and national businesses and community organisations and running events, we aim to raise the profile of our work whilst also helping local communities and charities.
The Clarets Trust has three main aims as stated in the constitution:
• To buy shares in Burnley Football Club to promote supporter involvement
• To give fans a voice through supporter representation
• To promote Burnley Football Club within the community
