About us
Our work
Our work
Our work focusses on improving lives and reducing disadvantage in former coalmining communities, working across three key areas; helping individuals, supporting other mining charities and protecting recreational land.

Helping individuals
Through our personal welfare service, we help former mineworkers and their families, providing practical and emotional support, benefits advice and access to grants, guidance around coping with ill-health and immobility and opportunities to reduce social isolation.
Supporting charities
Through our community welfare service, we support more than 200 independent mining charities across the UK to continue delivering essential recreational and social facilities in local communities with guidance, governance support and help to access funding.
Caring for land
As custodian of one of the largest recreational land portfolios in the UK, be it football, rugby and cricket pitches or open recreation grounds, we seek to maintain local facilities in former mining communities for ongoing use for future generations.
