  3. We are 50!

We are 50!

2nd July 2023

We are 50!

2023 marks our 50th birthday ... and a new look!

We're very proud of the Trust story. Trust was established in October 1973,  born out of a philanthropic movement in the 1970s. We were originally called Kirk Care and re-branded and changed our name to Trust in 2004.  Since our first development in Glasgow, we have grown into a national and forward-thinking social landlord, with over 3,600 homes across the length and breadth of Scotland. Our story and culture have been enriched through growth with like-minded people and organisations, most recently our partnership with Wishaw & District Housing Association in 2019.

To mark our 50th birthday, we will be holding a number of parties across the country over the coming months. The celebrations formally kicked off this week at our Office Get Together in Edinburgh on Tuesday 27th June.

As part of the celebrations, we're also re-branding. We will still be called ‘Trust’ but our current duel visual identities (Trust and Wishaw & District) are dated and not widely recognised, either nationally or locally in the communities we serve, and no longer reflects the organisation and employer we have become and what we stand for.

Thank you for being part of Trust's story. Here's to a thriving future and the next 50 years!
