We are a UK registered charity founded to provide support to organisations and projects working to increase access to the internet, online safety and education, and who apply an innovative use of the internet for achieving our charitable objectives.

We were founded in 2008 by Nominet with start up funding of £5m. Nominet maintains the .uk register of domain names and is one of the world's leading Internet registries. Nominet's vision is of a world where the Internet is a trusted space, which everyone can be part of and has a positive impact on people's lives. Nominet Trust works independently of Nominet to realise this vision.

Nominet Trust has a board of six Trustees, who are responsible for strategy, oversight and fund distribution. Our Trustees meet quarterly to consider applications for grants. For further information on the Trustees, please click here.
