🔑 WE HAVE THE KEYS! 🔑

We are officially the proud owners of Trinity Hall in ! This is the start of an incredible journey to create a brand-new Creative Health and Wellbeing Centre.

🏗️ The Plan: We have a lot of building work to do, but we’re doing it differently. Through our ‘Access Now’ consultation programme, we are co-designing the space alongside people with disabilities from day one.

🎨 Calling local artists: Are you a disabled artist based in Tewkesbury? We want YOU on our steering group to help us design a space that truly works.

Interested in getting involved? Find out more about our exciting plans and add your ideas by completing our survey: https://artshape.co.uk/pages/trinity-hall

We are not moving out of Brockworth and that this is in addition to the accessible studio.
