In 2003, the Linskill and North Tyneside Community Development Trust (LNTCDT) was established to save the Linskill Centre as a community facility for the future generations of North Tyneside. As a registered charity and not-for-profit organisation the Trust continues to develop and invest in the Linskill Centre and deliver community projects. The Trust now manages Royal Quays Community Centre and Battle Hill Multi-Use Centre with the objective of rejuvenating these community facilities. The Linskill Centre in North Shields provides a community facility to learn, socialise and engage in activities. Employing over 60 people the Linskill Centre now attracts over 160,000 visitors per year through its weekly activities programme, community groups, tenants, cafe, weddings and events. Under Linskill Trading Ltd the Trust operates a number of community businesses, based at the Linskill Centre, for the benefit of the local community with all surpluses reinvested back in to the Centre or community projects: Linskill Nursery This Ofsted registered nursery delivers childcare packages for babies to pre-school age in dedicated rooms, including access to a sensory room and outdoor learning facilities.
