“without the help of EAST DURHAM TRUST I don’t dare think about what would have happened to us. We were living hand to mouth and were at rock bottom with nowhere to turn.
​I can’t thank THe trust enough, they really are lifesavers.”

Stop Poverty in East Durham (SPIED) is a project intended to combat the effects of poverty in East Durham through a number of different initiatives.
