Awen Libraries Local and Family History Centre

Awen Cultural Trust was established in 2015 as a charitable organisation with objectives to enhance cultural opportunities in Bridgend and the wider region.

Our purpose is to Make People’s Lives Better by providing space and opportunity for people to enjoy vibrant cultural experiences that inspire and enhance their sense of wellbeing. Our values are enshrined in everything we do.

From how we interact with customers and partners to how we work internally with colleagues, these are our values:

CREATIVE

We look at fresh, creative ways to continually improve what we do and how we do it. We champion innovation and are responsive to the changing world around us.

COLLABORATIVE

We are pro-active in developing positive relationships internally and externally with colleagues, stakeholders and partners.

EMPOWERING

We empower people to achieve their potential and make good things happen.

FAIR

We strive to be fair in all our dealings and respect one another and the communities we serve. In an average year we can expect in excess of 1million visitors/users to our services drawn from all areas of the county borough and far beyond.
