Through his activities in supporting and promoting the work of Wells Harbour, Robert Smith, the Harbour Master at Wells-next-the-Sea, has been developing a fund of money which he earmarked to support young people in the Wells area to enjoy maritime activities. He particularly has in mind those young people who would otherwise not experience the challenge and fun of water-based activities. From Robert's original idea the Wells Harbour Maritime Trust (WHMT) has been developed to support a range of maritime activities for young people.

The Trust is one of the Wells Harbour Commissioners' activities in support of the local community.

The Trust's aims :

1) To advance the education and training of young people between the ages of 11 and 20 in sailing, seamanship and associated watersports, in particular through the award of bursaries.
2) To promote the personal and social development of such people by enabling them to participate in sailing adventures and training.

The Trust supports young people who live in or within a ten mile radius of Wells-next-the-Sea.

The Wells Harbour Maritime Trust (WHMT)is a charity registered in England and Wales No. 1136392
