About us
Who we are
Trowbridge Town Hall is a civic hub for the 21st Century. Opened in 1889, the building has been run by a charitable Trust for the last decade. Created "for the benefit of the inhabitants of the town for ever" this continues to inspire us today.
Our vision is a creative, confident and cohesive.
Our purpose is to restore the historic Town Hall “for the benefit of the inhabitants of the town for ever”.
Our values are:
- Togetherness: we enable activities that bring people into shared physical space
- Empathy: we encourage people to see and appreciate other lived experiences
- Innovation: we are inspired by the past to improve lives in the future and present
- Generosity: we share what is ours
- Nurturing: we enable growth, both individually and collectively
- Openness: we welcome everyone
Our activity fits into three overlapping areas: culture, community and commerce. We're particualrly interested in creative engagement, cultural entrpreneurialism and social enterprise. At the centre of all we do is the principle of agency, empowering people to lead their fullest lives.
