East Dorset Heritage Trust

Who We Are

East Dorset Heritage Trust is a small educational charity established over 30 years ago.
Our home is Allendale House, centered in the wonderful market town of Wimborne Minster and we offer the opportunity to learn no matter what your age or ability.
It’s the place to learn something new or brush up on old skills. Take a course to improve your French, Spanish or Italian conversation. Awaken your creative writing skills or learn about famous artists and their work. How about computing, iPads or phones or even meditation….try our creative workshops too. There is something for everyone
We offer heritage events throughout the year with guided walks, talks or visits to interesting and unusual places.
The house itself is a beautiful historic building with elegant rooms for hire which are light and airy – the perfect place for training or meetings.
So get in touch and we will be happy to help!
