CTC.CIC started with one women's heart 💜
Our mum Wendy Christine Julian founder of CTC, knew just how tough life could really be. Mum felt in her heart she wanted to do her bit and help relieve some of life’s struggles .. .. Her heart created the vision of a recycling furniture hub, where those in need could access free necessary household items.

“We are the chest, you have the treasure, we can help other people by joining together”


In October 2015 mums vision became a reality and Community Treasure Chest was born. Sadly one month later as most of you know, mum was diagnosed with cancer. Mum lost her battle the following January. Our promise to her has never broken and as a family we continue to help those who need it in our community. Are you in hardship ? Or know someone who is ?

Community Treasure Chest has since grown into a CIC and with a splash of all our hearts ❤️💚💙🧡 including yours, our community CTC is still growing…

❤️ Happy Birthday Mum ❤️

Today would have been our mum's birthday.

As many of you know, Mum founded Community Treasure Chest and opened the doors on 1st October. Just over a month later we received the devastating news that she had terminal cancer, and sadly we lost her the following January.

Even though Mum wasn't with us for long enough to see what CTC would become, her values and her heart are still at the centre of everything we do today.

Her belief was simple – nobody should go without the essential household items they need. More than 10 years later, that belief is still part of our mission. Through our Home Help Packages and the support we give every week, we continue to help local families just as Mum intended.

As sisters, we've spent the last decade building on her vision. What started as Community Treasure Chest has grown into so much more than we ever imagined. Along the way we've introduced the Liskeard Community Fridge, LC Repaint, the CTC Tool Library, developed our Recycling Hub and sustainability projects, and most recently welcomed our sister company HHH.

There have been challenges, long days, and many years of volunteering, but we've never lost sight of why we started. We believed in Mum's vision and we believed in our own ideas.

This year feels like a turning point. After 10 years of hard work, determination and community support, we can finally see the future we've all worked so hard towards becoming sustainable.

This month Community Treasure Chest has been chosen as Liskeard Traders Association's Business of the Month, and there is no better time to dedicate this recognition to the person who started it all.

Mum, this one's for you. ❤️

Thank you for the values you gave us, the ideas you inspired, and the foundation you built. Community Treasure Chest is still growing because of the seeds you planted all those years ago.

Happy Birthday Mum. We hope we're making you proud. ❤️

Valerie, Emma & Paula
