Working together #savingronsplace
The campaign to save Ron’s Place was initiated by artists Jan Williams (Ron’s niece) and Chris Teasdale of The Caravan Gallery, supported by family, friends and an array of talented individuals with expertise in arts, heritage, culture and community. Our merry band of volunteers formed an informal advisory board before launching Wirral Arts and Culture Community Land Trust (WACCLT) in December 2021.
The building containing Ron’s rented ground floor flat, plus three upstairs flats, was purchased at auction in March 2023 by Wirral Arts and Culture Community Land Trust thanks to a last minute gift from the Muller Wimhurst Trust.
Ron’s Place, our flagship project, is managed by WACCLT’s Board of Trustees supported by a wonderful Team of volunteers and advocates including Jarvis Cocker.
We’re hugely grateful to all our volunteers and supporters, past present and future.

Our guiding principles are to set out our hopes and ambitions for Ron’s Place, as a legacy to Ron himself and most importantly to contribute to the neighbourhood and the wider cultural network.
