Trust Background

The Bloody Sunday Trust is a community based education and human rights organisation. It was established in 1997 with the aim of encouraging support for human rights, conflict transformation and increased understanding between people both internationally and in Ireland. The Trust aims to remember and better understand the recent history of Derry and the North West of Ireland as a means to achieving these goals.

The recent history of conflict in Ireland has ensured that the names of Derry, and the Bogside in particular, have become internationally recognised and respected. The Trust seeks to build on the memories and experiences of the local community and to create the opportunity for these experiences to be transmitted to the wider community.

The Trust is the managing body of the Museum of Free Derry.
