Berwick is renowned for its community spirit, from street parties for national events to its Harvest Supper and Fete.

The Edmund's Trust is a charity established in memory of the Hon Edmund Bridges. The Charity's current activity focusses upon the commissioning of new choral music to be sung in churches. The Trustees are developing plans to advance the education and development of young people both in the study and performance of choral music, as well for the general education and development of young people from socially or economically deprived communities.
