A new look for Minstead Trust

25 October 2024

You might have noticed that we have started to look a little different in the last week.

We have updated our branding and logo to reflect the modern Minstead Trust – both the people we support now and our present day priorities.

The changes were backed by a huge amount of research and consultation and we hope the result is a bold, fresh, new brand with a nod to our history, which will equip the Trust for the future. 

It is the first time the Trust has made any change to its visual look for over five years, and the first time in its 40 year history it has gone through a full rebrand.

We have come a long way from our early days supporting a handful of people in a corner of Furzey Gardens. Today we support over 320 people along the south coast from Poole to Portsmouth, with many more people supported in towns than in the New Forest.

We hope our update logo and branding will help everyone feel part of the Trust, no matter where they are.

We also hope this brand enables us to be more confident in talking positively about our experience and insights in working with people with learning disabilities, so that, with them, we can influence a more positive future. 

More than ever, we are committed to enriching the lives of the people we support and breaking down the barriers faced by all people with learning disabilities in life.
