JURASSIC COAST TRUST

The Jurassic Coast Trust's role is to protect and conserve the Dorset & East Devon Coast World Heritage Site for current and future generations, and to enable the World Heritage Status to be of benefit to people. We do this through engagement, learning, advocacy, community development, skills promotion and volunteering. We are the only organisation who's sole role it is to look after this Site.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government and there are significant future grants due to be received
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
