Our Mission
The Epiphany Trust (Truro) Ltd is an ecumenical Christian charity formed in 2002. The Trust’s mission is:
- To provide a place of peace, prayer and worship where people can explore Christian spirituality, to further their own spiritual journey and deepen their relationship with God
- To provide creative opportunities, resources and a venue to support those in need and the agencies and other charities who help them
- To offer the provision of a venue and opportunities for community and Christian groups for learning, development, rehearsal, lectures and study
To enable the Trust to fulfil these objectives we run Epiphany House, in Truro, as a Conference and Retreat Centre. This historic building, often described as a ‘haven of peace’, has a number of meeting rooms, overnight accommodation and a chapel. The Trust aims to make the fullest and most effective use of what the house can offer, and to this end we are committed to offering excellent hospitality to all who visit us. This is at the heart of all we do, in providing:
- a centre for prayer, spiritual retreat and renewal
- a place of peace
and acceptance allowing respite and refuge, healing and growth
- a resource
for Cornish Christian organisations
- a space to minister to those in full-time ministry
- a meeting space for churches’ training courses and away days
- a place for Quiet Days
and retreats

As a charity we are particularly concerned with helping those who are disadvantaged and we therefore offer special rates, small bursaries and consideration to those who would otherwise not be able to take advantage of our facilities.
The house is set in beautiful grounds that are enjoyed by our many visitors and members of the public who regularly walk through them, enjoying the views and the rich variety of wildlife in the grounds. An area of the grounds is set aside to make ‘allotments’ for the use of groups for whom gardening can offer therapeutic benefit. The house is acknowledged by many of our guests as a place where they can find rest, silence, healing, and solace in their often hectic or difficult lives.
