The Chalke History Trust
Chalke History Trust
The Chalke History Trust was established in May 2012 by the founders of Chalke History Festival to create a charitable entity that promotes the understanding and enjoyment of history.
Our Mission
The founders believe passionately that it is vital for people of all ages to learn about the past in order to understand how it has shaped our modern world and to look to the future with a knowledge of the experience of past generations.
The aim of the Trust is to promote the understanding, education and enjoyment of history and related subjects to people of all ages across the UK.
