We have just completed a very interesting study which suggests that the Jurassic Coast has exceeded expectations in bringing economic, social and cultural benefits to the region since being awarded UNESCO World Heritage Site status in 2001.

Now everyone can take a virtual Walk Through Time, from a number of museums and Visitor Centres along the Jurassic Coast.

The Jurassic Coast annual seminar was held on the 12th December at The Bull Hotel in Bridport.  An audience of about 100 braved the cold damp weather to come along and be entertained by poetry and interactive voting, and to hear the news and views of local businesses and young people who live along the Jurassic Coast.

World Heritage Sites are selected by UNESCO, the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation.  One of their requirements is that each Site should have a Management Plan.

The work to develop the Jurassic Coast story within nine museums along the coast is developing apace.
