As I conclude my second year as Chair of Trustees, I remain deeply inspired by the continued passion and resilience of our community, team, and partners. Thank you to everyone who has stood alongside us — your support continues to be the foundation of our success.

This year’s Annual Report offers a powerful reflection on how far we’ve come. Building on the foundations laid in 2023/24, we’ve not only sustained a vibrant, inclusive cultural programme but also deepened our roots across the city - reaching new audiences, developing stronger partnerships, and affirming our role as a civic hub.

Over the year, we welcomed 70,998 visitors through our doors - taking part in everything from grassroots gigs to family-friendly festivals. The successful delivery of our Children & Young People’s Programme, including the launch of a two-year Cultural Alliance strategic partnership with three local primary schools.

We delivered an expanded offer of free and low-cost community activities reaching communities and neighbourhoods in our immediate catchment area. The successful embedding of a targeted place-based neighbourhood programme led to the co-design of a new adult provision in partnership with Bristol Drugs Project and Bristol College of Art.

Many will be familar with Trinity as a live venue and our audiences of over 40,000 attendees took part in a diverse cultural offer of over 1,400 events featuring 326 artists across multiple artforms and disciplines.

Beyond our walls, we also strengthened commitment to equity by playing a strategic role in the West of England Combined Authority's first Citizens’ Assembly, to shape a citizen-led cultural delivery plan for the region.

Notably we also progressed in our efforts to restore Jacobs Wells Baths - undertaking the first steps to transform it into a much-needed civic arts space for Bristol and the wider region.

I’m especially proud of how the Trinity team has continued to lead with integrity and creativity. Their willingness to adapt, experiment, and work collaboratively has ensured our work remains relevant, responsive, and impactful.

As we look ahead, we do so with renewed focus. We know the challenges our communities face, but we also recognise the role creativity plays in shaping a more hopeful, connected future. Together, we remain committed to our mission: Creative Expression for All.

Thank you once again for being part of this journey.

With appreciation and sincerest thanks to all who took part, worked with and supported us throughout the year.

Chris Luffingham, Chair of Trustees

Open to all and/or artists, researchers, community members, or simply anyone curious about rethinking the visual archives and histories of colonialism and oil.
