The Dame Kelly Holmes Trust is a charity that was set up in 2008 by double Olympic champion, Dame Kelly Holmes, and supports athletes as they transition from sport, and uses their skills and experience to transform the lives of disadvantaged young people through mentoring programmes. The Dame Kelly Holmes Trust supports disadvantaged young people between the ages of 14 and 25 and works in all regions of the UK.

By April 2015, the Dame Kelly Holmes Trust had made an impact on 200,000 young people, and supported over 400 athletes in their transition from sport.[1]

The Dame Kelly Holmes Trust runs a number of programmes for disadvantaged young people throughout the UK including Get On Track, AQA Unlocking Potential, Sport For Change and Sporting Champions.

The charity is funded by a combination of grants, trusts, corporate partners and fundraising.
