Wisbech Society and Preservation Trust was founded in 1939 with the aim of maintaining Wisbech's historic heritage.
We care deeply about Wisbech and demonstrate this through our concern for its future as well as its past.
We are recognised by Fenland District Council as needing to be consulted and allowed to contribute to all planning applications relating to listed buildings and all proposals within the conservation areas.
To stimulate local interest in the preservation of the architectural beauty of our town
To encourage the creation of good modern buildings which generations to come will consider worthy of preservation
To represent the views of the Society to local, county and other authorities and to co-operate with them to secure these ends
To help in every way the cultural life of the town

The annual fee not only helps fund the Society’s many and varied activities, but also allows access to a programme of fascinating winter lectures and a series of exclusive trips in the spring and summer months.
The Society publishes an Annual Review distributed free of charge to members outlining its activities, together with interesting articles and photographs connected to the town.
