Latest news and updates from the FoTB

20th August 2026 - Earlier this week one of our founding Trustees, Mel Jacob, met with Wiltshire Historic Buildings Trust to discuss options and ways forward with the restoration of our Bandstand. This was a very productive meeting that revealed many opportunities for progressing the project. It's good to have an organisation such as the WHBT on board and supporting our aims. Watch this space for more exciting news about this collaboration!

16th August 2026 - Thank you to all who donated so generously to the FoTB at the Summer Season of concerts in Trowbridge Town Park.
