The TC Foundation
Supporting conservation education and research
in textiles and related specialisms
Welcome to the The TC Foundation's website
Founded in 1975, the TC Foundation (
formerly the Textile Conservation Foundation
) supports textile conservation education and research through the
Kelvin Centre for Conservation and Cultural Heritage Research
, part of the University of Glasgow.  Between 1975 to 2009 the TC Foundation supported the Centre’s predecessor, the Textile Conservation Centre before moving to become part of the University of Glasgow in 2010.
This site tells you about
our work today
and about the
history of the TC Foundation
and the Centres.  You can find out about the
lasting benefit
of the TC Foundation’s support for students and can also find out about the
generous funders
who make our work possible.
