What can I do to help?
The best way anyone can help TiL, and indeed the football club, is to get involved.  Make sure you have a voice by joining TiL.  Remember this is an annual subscription and your membership may have lapsed!  Encourage your friends who have yet to join to become part of Luton Town Football Club by joining TiL.  Moving forward, we will be regularly canvassing the opinion of the fans through the TiL membership so make your views heard and join us!  The more members there are, the stronger we are.
 
All supporters of Luton Town Football Club can join Trust in Luton whether they are adults (£10 per year) or children (£5 per year).  You can also make additional donations that are gratefully received.  We use the money raised to support both activities within the football club (such as the Girls Academy) and in the community.
 
We also welcome anyone who can give any amount of time or expertise to the running of TiL.  This could be in the form of a few hours per month or by joining the TiL Board.  If you have professional expertise (accounting, legal, IT, marketing, property/planning etc) then we would be delighted if you could offer ad-hoc help when we need specific skills, or even act as an "advice line".
 
We at TiL are all unpaid and we come from a wide range of backgrounds.  We do it because we love Luton Town Football Club and want to be the fans positive and supportive voice of the club.  Obviously it's not always good times (perhaps an understatement on occassion!) but through both the good and bad days, by joining TiL and giving support you will be part of a like minded community who still find to have fun and enjoy healthy banter on all that is Luton Town Football Club.  We promise we are not a bunch of Victor Meldrews!
 
By offering to help out, you are under no obligation at all, so join up and come along and see what you can do to make our club great again!  We look forward to seeing you.
