Trestle Youth Board Blog | Summer Of Fundraising

This Summer, Trestle’s Youth Board have embarked on a brilliant and bonkers fundraising campaign in order to raise essential funds to support Trestle Arts Base. At the time of publishing, we are currently at 33% of our target!

We asked Youth Board Member Elif Coban why people should get involved…

‘Most people don’t know what it’s like to find your safe space. A space that you can be unapologetically you. A space filled with encouragement, acceptance and laughter. This is what Trestle creates. It’s not just a building, it’s a base for love and artistic growth that has built a community of opportunity for all. 

We’re facing a reality where rising costs threaten the future of crucial community spaces, that welcome those who need them most.
