A Room of Her Own:

How You Can Support The Hypatia Trust

Volunteer

​Our volunteers are passionate about women’s stories and histories, and enjoy sharing them by selling books in our bookshop, writing for our newsletter, assisting with our library and archive, and helping at our events and workshops. Let us know how you’d like to help—we’d love to hear from you!

Attend our events

Joining the conversation at one of our talks, exhibitions, workshops or performances is one of the best ways to support us. We look forward to welcoming you.

Donate

We welcome your donations to The Hypatia Trust. As a charity your contributions are what sustain us and ensure we can continue to support and empower women by hosting talks, workshops, residencies and more. Thanks to your support we've made it to 30 years; help us plan for 30 more!

Stay With Us

Did you know that we have a beautifully appointed holiday apartment to let right in the heart of Penzance? Proceeds from your stay support the work of The Hypatia Trust.

Visit our bookshop

Selling carefully curated selections of pre-loved books, artwork and books by local artists and authors, and works from our small press featuring academic, social history and reference books, our online and in-person bookshops feature women's narratives and other lesser-heard voices in history. Making a purchase directly supports our work!
