About OnFife

OnFife (also known as Fife Cultural Trust) was established by Fife Council on 1 October 2012, and delivers Libraries, Arts, Museums, Galleries, Archives, Theatres and Cultural Partnerships Services on behalf of Fife Council with a view to ensuring the long-term sustainability of these services. A company limited by guarantee, our principal activity is the provision of cultural services for Fife. OnFife is responsible for community development in the creative and cultural fields and for operating and delivering the following facilities and services:

Libraries inclusive of mobile libraries, a Home Delivery Service and a Schools Library Service
Maintenance and development of library services within Fife Council’s four integrated customer service facilities
Museums, Galleries, Archives & Local Studies, heritage sites, and a mobile museum
Stewardship and care for the objects and archives in Fife Council’s collections
Theatres and community venues

OnFife is a registered charity and we believe everyone has the right to inspiration and creativity, so:

We bring a wide variety of top-class culture to the people of Fife, at an affordable price.
We create and run community initiatives that build people’s confidence, boosting their health, wellbeing, literacy and employment prospects.
We make our experiences inclusive – carers go free to all theatre shows, while we run special relaxed performances, captioned film-screenings, and shows tailored for people living with dementia, people with profound learning disabilities, and tiny tots. We also host Bookbug sessions in British Sign Language, Gaelic and Scots, and deliver books directly to people who can’t come to us.

The Company’s trading subsidiary, Fife Cultural Services Trading Ltd, supports the Trust in its primary objects of carrying on activities which benefit the community and help to generate revenue for re-investment in our core services. Our strategic objectives and how we communicate our organisational identity reflect we are a cultural and creative organisation:
