The many achievements of the Kelvin Centre Conservation & Cultural Heritage (previously named the Centre for Textile Conservation) and its predecessor, the Textile Conservation Centre, would not have been possible without the generous support of the TC Foundation's many funders - to whom the Trustees, as well as many generations of staff and students, are indebted.

The following list records the Foundation's major funders since the Kelvin Centre’s predecessor The Textile Conservation Centre, was established in 1975. In addition to those listed there are many others who prefer to remain anonymous.
