About Us

Exeter CITY Community Trust are Exeter’s leading health and wellbeing charity working in partnership with Exeter City Football Club.

We deliver inspiring physical activity, education, health and wellbeing programmes and courses primarily across Devon and Somerset for all members of the community regardless of ethnicity, age, gender, physical ability, background or economic status.

A full-time staff of more than 30 people and a casual staff of more than 70 (supported by around 25 volunteers) are delivering on the frontline daily, spending around 22,000 hours out in the community every year striving to improve life chances for all, often in the most deprived areas of Greater Exeter and among the most disadvantaged groups in our society.

While football is our beating heart, our work in the community has grown to extend far beyond. Our programmes reach more than 45,000 members of our community each year and around 48% of our work is not football-related. The spread of our work is growing all the time.

 We want everyone to know you don’t have to play football, support football … or even like football … to benefit or participate. We are open and accessible to all, young and old, whoever you are, whatever your ability or background.
