The Visitor Centre tells the stories of the Spode factory, the works, the everyday and amazing things they made and the collection and archive of the Spode Museum Trust. There are films, images, interactive displays, objects from the collections and regular events and activities.

Since the closure of the Spode factory, the Trust's collection has been in storage. The Visitor Centre has been created so that people can access the collection and so that the Trust can find out more about the experiences of former workers at Spode and collect their reminiscences and photographs to add to the permanent archive. The Trust wishes to support, contribute to and generate interest in current and future projects such as other arts and cultural projects on the former Spode factory site; build support for the development of a permanent heritage centre and contribute to the wider regeneration of the factory site and Stoke.
