Introduction

Bewdley Development Trust is a not for profit company which takes its lead from a community led partnership of members, residents, community groups and local businesses as well as the town, district and county councils. We are committed to ensuring that Bewdley remains a thriving town in which to live, work and visit.

Our vision for Bewdley is "To have a thriving, high quality market town which meets the needs of the local community, develops to enhance the town's historic character, encourages and supports existing and new creative businesses and achieves a reputation distinct from other neighbouring towns".

Previously working under the name of Opportunity Bewdley, we have been successful in securing grants from a variety of funding sources to deliver projects which have made real improvements to the physical infrastructure of the town, given support to local community organisations and businesses, contributed to transport schemes and helped enhance and publicise Bewdley's offering as a visitor attraction. More information can be found in Our Work.

As we move forwards, our mandate is to:

• Maintain and manage a portal website to represent the entire town
• Continue to deliver the Local Distinctiveness Action Plan – a project to enhance the offering of the town for residents and visitors
• Take ownership of certain built assets in the town and develop and maintain them
• Work with the public and private sectors to develop businesses and services to encourage business start–ups
• Seek funding for projects in the town

www.bewdley.org.uk is one of Bewdley Development Trust's original projects and we are committed to keeping the information provided fresh and up to date. We hope that you find your visit to this Bewdley website enjoyable and interesting and that you return shortly.
