The Bruce Trust was created in 1988 and Bruce Boats was born. In January 2016 the Bruce Trust’s boats were gifted to and have been operated by the specially-formed “Bruce Branch” of the Kennet and Avon Canal Trust continuing to operate from Great Bedwyn. The Bruce Trust is still very much alive but its focus now is on fundraising and grant-giving for the specific benefit of people with special needs to enjoy the outstanding facilities now provided by the Bruce Branch of the Kennet & Avon Canal Trust.
One of the popular fund raisers is the 50/50 Lottery
The 50/50 Lottery Club is a fundraising scheme, offering you a chance to win one of THREE cash prizes every month: currently £60, £30, and £15. The more people who join the club, the higher the prize fund will be. From the total amount raised, 50% will go to the Trust to help with maintenance of the Bruce Boats and 50% will be split into cash prizes. So far over £25,000 has been raised towards Trust funds.
If you wish to join the 50/50 lottery please contact Rebecca Bruce at enquiries@brucetrust.org.uk or call 077897 27493
