Governance

William Morris Gallery and its collections are owned and managed by London Borough of Waltham Forest. Frank Brangwyn RA and Walthamstow Borough Council signed a trust deed in 1935 to set up the Gallery and ‘The William Morris Gallery and Brangwyn Gift’ opened to the public in October 1950. The William Morris Gallery Trust was formed in 2024. This new charity incorporates the original collection-based responsibilities of the Brangwyn Gift and act as a source of advice and support for the Gallery as a whole.

Our trustees:

Jamie Andrews – Director of Public Engagement, British Library
Ros Bowman – Friends of the William Morris Gallery
Cllr Rosalind Dore (Chair) – Cabinet Member for Culture, London Borough of Waltham Forest
Anthony Misquitta, General Counsel, V&A
Sba Shaikh, artist and educator
