The funders for the Arches development are: Arts Council England, Wolfson Foundation, Garfield Weston Foundation, Clothworkers Foundation, Foyle Foundation, and Levelling Up Partnership funding (who have also funded some of the development work at Trinity Hall as well as the Architectural Heritage Fund).
