Clevedon Pier needs your support…
Clevedon Pier & Heritage Trust Ltd is a charitable Community Benefit Society with exempt charity status (Registered Society No. 7163) and therefore relies heavily on fund raising to keep the pier and Toll House running and open for members of the public to visit. The pier does not receive any form of revenue support and is therefore wholly dependent on fundraising for its future on the North Somerset coastline.
It was the efforts from fund raising that raised the £3.6 million that was required to allow the restoration and re-building of the pier.
Now that the pier and its buildings are fully restored, a great deal of money is still required on a regular basis. Each year, the maintenance and running costs of the pier exceed £200,000, non of which is provided by any external source, funding or sponsorship.
The pier structure needs to be re-painted every ten years. This is not a five minute job and requires specialist painting contractors capable of painting the steelwork, above a very fast moving tidal current. The cost for each re-paint is £800,000.
There are a number of ways that you are able to help increase the funds of the pier…

Leave a lasting legacy
What better legacy could you leave for future generations than a glimpse back into the past?
The future is far too important to be left to chance. We all want to ensure that our family and loved ones will be well looked after when we are no longer there to help. That’s why making a will is one of the most important jobs that we must do.
A legacy to Clevedon Pier, no matter how small, included in your will, is a way of helping to ensure that your children and your children’s children will be able to enjoy a stunning Victorian architectural marvel for many generations to come.
You may wish to leave an amount of money to the Clevedon Pier & Heritage Trust in your will. This can be arranged.
