Supporting children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities

What We Do

The Charity Trust was founded in 2001 (Registered Charity No 1088605).
​Originally called the Rowdeford Charity Trust (RCT), the Trust became the Silverwood School Charity Trust in 2023 following the amalgamation of the Rowde, Trowbridge and Chippenham Campuses.
 
The Trust aims to advance the education of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities, by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at Silverwood School in Wiltshire.
 
Since the formation of the Trust over a million pounds has been raised and spent within the school benefiting both the pupils and the local community.
