The Trust, which was established on 11th November 2015, exists to enlighten and inspire future generations by celebrating, cherishing and bringing the Paralympic heritage and its stories of human endeavour to life.
In our first five years we have achieved a lot for a small organisation. As well as opening our Heritage Centre at Stoke Mandeville in Buckinghamshire we have had temporary exhibitions across the country in Norwich, Bradford and Gunnersbury Park in London. We have plans in place for future exhibitions in Bath, Manchester and on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London as well as further developing our digital offer, which has become even more important in recent months.
In order to support us on the next stage of our journey we are looking to appoint up to two independent Trustees.
