About us

The Zambia Society was founded in 1968 to encourage and strengthen ties between Britain and Zambia. In 1991 the Society launched the Zambia Society Trust in response to increasing poverty in Zambia and the devastating effects of the HIV epidemic. In 2006 the Society and Trust were amalgamated as the Zambia Society Trust. The Trust remains a membership organisation. The administration is carried out entirely by volunteers, so overheads are low.
