Purbeck Association was founded in 1987. We have more than 400 members living mainly in and around Purbeck, but all who wish to support the work of the Trust in this area are welcome to join.
Our objectives are to promote the work of the National Trust in Purbeck and, through social activities, make membership more enjoyable
Among National Trust properties we support are Corfe Castle and Heritage Centre, and Studland Estate and Study Centre. In recent years we have provided funds for a beach wheelchair at Studland, waymark signs at Corfe Castle, a stone seat at Worth Matravers, the preservation of red squirrels on Brownsea Island and a new bull for the Purbeck Red Devon herd.
We are independent of the National Trust but governed by a constitution common to all its centres and associations. Our affairs are conducted by a committee elected at our annual general meeting held each April.
