about the trust

Our mission: championing culture and heritage to bring people together in our restored historic buildings at the heart of Maryhill.

Our vision: a Maryhill that people are proud to call home. We are the catalyst for community cohesion, a place where neighbours meet to discover, share stories and celebrate. We aim to create opportunity, strengthen connections and nurture a sense of belonging.

Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust started life in 2004, when a group of local people came together after plans to demolish the historic building were announced. What followed was a full regeneration of the space, and since reopening in 2012, the Halls have been firmly back at the heart of the Maryhill community.

Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust Ltd is a Company Limited by Guarantee (Registered in Scotland, Company No 276010) and a registered charity (Scottish Charity Number SC036089). There are currently around 190 members of the Trust who represent a cross section of the local community.
