‘I wanted to be a Trustee to become part of Highbury’s history and safeguard its future. It is an importance place, both locally and nationally. It speaks of a time where Birmingham’s new identity as a civic and industrial powerhouse was being formed. The Hall itself is a beautiful and at times imposing example of neo-Gothic architecture. “
In lockdown, like many others, walks became very important to me and my family. Walking to Highbury Hall and around the Gardens were always a highlight. My favourite place is just outside the house, looking across the lawn, as it’s where the beautiful surroundings provided a haven from everything else was happening. It truly made me appreciate what was on my own doorstep.’ Angharad Bullward
