In the charity's own words

This is a small registered charity that serves the Cotswold village of Bibury. The charity was born in 1898 when several separate local charities were combined. Our main responsibility now is to preserve Bibury Village Hall, and keep it at the heart of village life. For this reason, we have adopted the working name Bibury Village Hall Trust. There is also a small welfare trust within the charity.
