Our purpose is to advance scientific, technical, and artistic education in relation to glass manufacturing. We do this by funding initiatives such as training opportunities, scientific research projects, equipment purchases, and public exhibitions.
Our trustees have a wealth of experience in the glass industry and are responsible for the strategic direction of the charity. They work on a voluntarily basis and are great advocates of making glass learning opportunities more accessible to all.
