The Trust's objectives are Conservation, Regeneration and Education. These objectives are fulfilled through a number of projects; the creation of a heritage and education centre, running heritage and community based projects, supporting local heritage groups, creating quality yet affordable office space for SME's, working with schools and youth groups.

Phase 3

The Trust's main objectives is the regeneration of the Harvey's Foundry Site.Tthis work has been undertaken in a phased approach with phases 1 and 2 successfully completed we can now concentrate on the most historically significant buildings pulling the site together.

Phase 3 will create a heritage and education centre, managed 'grow-on workspace', expand the office provision and create Cornwall's first purpose-built archaeological research centre.

The Granary Barn and Engine House will be transformed into a heritage and education centre that explains the history of the site and Hayle, as well as providing flexible exhibition, performance and community space.
