Heritage Portfolio and Mansfield Traquair Trust continue ongoing partnership amidst SCVO departure
The Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations (SCVO), Mansfield Traquair Centre’s primary tenant for many years, has formally given notice and will be vacating the building.
The Mansfield Traquair Trust is now welcoming expressions of interest from organisations that would value and complement the unique cultural and architectural character of this iconic heritage site, often called ‘Edinburgh’s Sistine Chapel’.
During this transition, event operations will continue as normal. The Trust has an existing partnership with Heritage Portfolio, the venue’s longstanding catering and events provider, which remains in place to support planned and future events.
Dr. Duncan Thomson, chair of the Mansfield Traquair Trust said “For those planning special occasions, we know how vital reliability and consistency are. Our longstanding relationship with Heritage Portfolio reflects a shared commitment to making Mansfield Traquair a distinctive and memorable setting for weddings, corporate events and celebrations.”
Friends of Mansfield Traquair Trust, a dedicated group of volunteers who help bring the building’s rich history to life, provide trained guides for open days and lead private tours by arrangement. They also offer talks for local groups and societies, helping to share the story of Mansfield Traquair with wider audiences.
Heritage Portfolio, a division of Sodexo Live! is a provider of corporate hospitality for cultural destinations. Its partners include Musselburgh Racecourse, Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, National Galleries Scotland, V&A Dundee and The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
