The work that everyone at the Trust is doing for all the children and all the people they are helping is what really matters and for me they are the real heroes.
Thomas Frank, Brentford FC Head Coach, between October 2018 and June 2025.
With our community work spanning more than three decades, Brentford FC Community Sports Trust has established itself as a pioneering organisation for the local community. It uses the power of sport to educate, motivate and inspire people from all backgrounds.
Working in partnership with Brentford FC, the Trust delivers a range of programmes in education, employability, sports participation, health and community engagement.
We have won the ‘Football League Community Club of the Year’ award four times and have cemented our reputation as a community-led Football Club.
In 2018 the Trust joined the European Football for Development Network and aligned our strategy with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, which demonstrates our local impact at a global level and our ongoing commitment towards sustainability.
The Trust now operates across two new state of the art sites. We are a key partner at Gunnersbury Park Sports Hub which opened its doors to the public in 2021, whilst also enjoying a purpose-built office space at our Community Stadium Hub adjacent to the Brentford FC Stadium.
