## Purpose

The Victoria Theatre Trust, a charitable trust which was formed in 2004 to save the theatre, is committed to refurbishing the Victoria Theatre and has completed part one of its refurbishment plan to date. The long-term plan is for a complete restoration of the theatre, including seismic strengthening and heritage renovation. This will be funded through applications to principal funding agencies but in the meantime the VTT will need to demonstrate that the Vic is a viable and thriving part of the community. The Trust is delighted that the theatre is now an integral part of the Devonport and Auckland cultural landscape and thank you for your support.
