Put simply Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust exists to look after the well-being of the whole of the Yorkshire Dales. Our mission is ‘to support the environmental, social and economic well-being of the Yorkshire Dales’ and we work in many different ways to achieve it.
Our work is broad-ranging and we work with many other organisations and individuals to make it a success.
There are three key ways in which we work….
- Raise & distribute funds to projects.
- Manage & distribute grants on behalf of other organisations.
- Deliver projects directly.
Projects
Our preferred way of working is to raise money so we can fund individuals, community groups and organisations to help them achieve their own projects to benefit the area. In this way we work as an enabling body, helping others to deliver their aspirations for the Dales. There are times, however, when running a project ourselves is the only practicable way to make it happen.

Grants
The other way we work is to manage grant programmes on behalf of other organisations. As part of this we provide help and advice to applicants.
