Royston Museum Trust CIO
Royston Museum is owned and managed by Royston Museum Trust CIO. ​Royston Town Council provide the museum with vital core funding, but the scale of the museum’s success, facilities and reach is reliant on visitor donations, community grants and external funding.
​
Our mission is to celebrate and share Royston’s heritage and stories, connecting people and places, past and present. Our vision is for Royston Museum to be a community hub for Royston; a multifunctional space which celebrates our town’s heritage, nurtures curiosity and inspires conversations.
The Trust is overseen by a board of trustees made up of members of the community, members of the local History Society, local councillors and museum professionals.
​

-

-
