Where it all began
Gillian Mary Dickinson had a passion for the arts where she worked for the majority of her life.
Projects throughout the region have received in excess of £1 millon.
The Trustees are committed to achieving the goals, and to live up to, the aspirations left to us by Gillian. This website is therefore an opportunity to demonstrate the progress we have made and to invite eligible organisations to apply for funding support.
