The Venture has been a registered charity (No. 1153454) since its formation in 1978 and in January 2012 Trustees voted to also register as a charitable company limited by guarantee (No. 8011966).

​

The Venture is managed by a board of Trustees who monitor our performance and make decisions on the future of the children's centre at quarterly meetings. We're also lucky to have a number of high profile patrons who advocate the great work we do.
