The initiative aims to support learning, engagement, and enrich the cultural heritage for residents of the district and wider Wolverhampton communities.  The District Trust is aiming to secure a permanent building for the benefit of community use, learning and a showcase for cultural heritage. 

At the Tettenhall District Trust's, 'Annual General Meeting', held on January 30th, 2025, the following proposal was unanimously accepted:
