About The Jubilee Trust

Founded in 1999, Jubilee is about helping people to develop a meaningful & authentic Christian faith, in every sphere of life.

Our Mission

Whole Life Faith

Jubilee is a Christian Charity based in Yorkshire in the United Kingdom. We work in partnership with individuals, groups and organisations.

Jubilee works in communities, in business, in education, as well as through denominations, Christian networks and churches. Our aim is to be present wherever authentic faith can make a difference.

Our Founders

Ian & Alyson Mayer

Ian & Alyson Mayer

Ian and Alyson Mayer established The Jubilee Trust in 1999 with a vision to bridge the gap between faith and everyday life. Their conviction that authentic Christian faith should reach into every sphere — from the workplace to the community — continues to drive the charity’s mission today.

They are passionate about churches and church leaders working together, and have spent over 25 years investing in unity, community transformation and Christian leadership across Yorkshire and beyond.

Ian & Alyson live and work in the north of England directing a number of businesses and Christian ministries. They have three grown-up children and six grandchildren.
