Welcome
The Jurassic Coast Trust is an independent registered charity which supports the delivery of science, conservation, arts, education and sustainable development programmes along the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site.
The Jurassic Coast was nominated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2001 and covers 95 miles of coastline in east Devon and Dorset. It is the first and only natural world heritage site in England.
"We inspire people to appreciate and learn more about the significance of the Jurassic Coast and to safeguard it for future generations by supporting projects that enhance and expand the understanding of world heritage, and the international importance of this unique coastline. We hope that you will join us to help raise funds in order to achieve this."
James Weld, Chairman
