The Parish Trust has Moved its HQ
Important Information on Our Move and Project Updates
At the end of 2024, The Parish Trust will be moving its headquarters from Trethomas to an industrial unit in Bedwas. The charity has been based at St. Thomas’ Church since its founding, and this is a bittersweet time for us; this will be the end of a chapter because we had hoped that St. Thomas’ would become our permanent headquarters, but it’s also the beginning of a new one as we move to a multi-site model of working, and grow our charity. We won’t be leaving Trethomas forever, as we have instigated a bold plan to renovate The Bryn Hall and bring it back to life.
The Parish Trust also continues its active search for a permanent, freehold building to serve as its Headquarters, ensuring a stable, long-term base for our operations.
Please see below for essential updates on our new location, revised donation drop-off times, and changes to our project schedules and youth activities.
