Help us continue to grow and make a difference in the Cowdenbeath Area!

The Central Park Community Trust aka Cowden in the Community was formed as the Charitable arm of Cowdenbeath Football Club in 2021 to promote health and wellbeing initiatives within the Cowdenbeath Area. From initially providing football sessions for children and adults, the Trust has grown to provide physical and wellbeing activity sessions for ages 18 months to 80 plus years.

The Board of 5 Trustees, 2 full time staff and part time staff delivered over 2500 individual sessions in 2024/25.


Working with partners including the Scottish Football Association and Active Fife, the Trust is delivering Scottish Government funded programmes within local Primary and High Schools which seek to tackle issues caused by inequality and poverty.


As our organisation grows and increases its scope, the Trust needs enthusiastic people to help take it to the next level
