Aims
of The Trust
The ultimate aim of the Trust has always been to have its own heritage
centre situated in Smethwick where the numerous pieces of memorabilia
etc can be housed permanently.
In this way we will all have the chance to see and remember Smethwick
as it once was and hopefully generate a renewed interest in seeing
the town not just as part of Sandwell, nor part of the Black Country
or Birmingham but standing alone and looking forward to a better
future stemming from a rich tapestry of history recalled.Thankfully
this aim is about to be fulfilled with the opening in the early
summer of 2004 of the new Heritage Centre, created from a refurbished
Park Lodge in Victoria Park, adjacent to the Council House, Smethwick.
