Bridport Area Development Trust (BADT)

Who we are

Bridport Area Development Trust  was the forerunner of several other Development Trusts in Dorset including Lyme Regis DT, Swanage and Purbeck DT and Weymouth DT with whom contact is maintained and ideas and initiatives shared. The Memorandum and Articles of the Trust express a committment to ‘regeneration but by a wide variety of means. Building  preservation being only one of these.

The Trust is prepared to consider any project in Bridport and its surrounding Parishes that has a regenerative benefit especially if these are of an economic and educational nature. A key criteria for BADT support is that of sustainability.
