Music Venue Trust
Description
Music Venue Trust is a UK-registered charity which acts to protect, secure and improve Grassroots Music Venues. Created in January 2014, they aim to secure the long-term future of iconic Grassroots Music Venues such as Hull Adelphi, Exeter Cavern, Southampton Joiners, The 100 Club, Band on the Wall, Tunbridge Wells Forum etc.
These venues have played a crucial role in the development of British music over the last 40 years, nurturing local talent, and providing a platform for artists to build their careers and develop their music and their performance skills. Music Venue Trust works to gain recognition of the essential role these venues fulfil, not only for artist development but also for the cultural and music industries, the economy and local communities. They aim to preserve and improve venues, making them more efficient and improving the experience for performers and audiences. Long-term MVT plans to acquire the freeholds of as many of these vital venues as possible through the CCBS Music Venue Properties. The team’s work is supported by a Board of Trustees, made up of professionals who are passionate about Grassroots Music Venues and their social, cultural and economic value.
The Trustees voluntarily oversee the work of Team MVT, holding a legal responsibility for the charity’s conduct and fulfilment of its mission.
