History of Denis Law Legacy Trust

Denis Law Legacy Trust was established in 2011 in Aberdeen to create positive opportunities for young people through sport, physical activity, creative programmes and community engagement.

Inspired by Scotland's football legend Denis Law, the Trust was founded on the belief that participation in sport can help young people build confidence, develop life skills and make positive contributions to their communities.

Since its inception, the Trust has grown and delivered a range of free programmes designed to reduce anti-social behaviour, improve health and wellbeing, promote social inclusion and provide pathways to education, volunteering and employment.

Its flagship StreetSport programme has engaged thousands of young people across Aberdeen and the Northeast, helping transform communities through accessible sport and recreation.

15 years on, Denis Law Legacy Trust continues its mission of supporting and empowering young people to become confident, capable, independent and responsible citizens within their communities.
