Welcome to the Cadwgan Building Preservation Trust website.
Cadwgan Building Preservation Trust, a Company Limited by Guarantee and a Registered Charity, is working very hard in partnership with Ceredigion County Council to save Cardigan Castle and associated buildings on its 2 acre site.
The Trust has now secured £4.5m from the Heritage Lottery Fund and a further £4.7m from WEFO towards the £11m project. We are also working towards a Communities Asset Transfer grant and hope to have all the funding in place by the summer.

One of the most important parts of the funding package is the £150k that Cadwgan has committed to raise from the community. Fundraising events are ongoing and donations are welcome.
A fully equipped office with a full time administration officer has been established at the Green Street Cottages at the main access to the castle site. Various specialist consultants have also been procured . Recruitment has also started for the first of 19 jobs at the site.
