The Trust aims to provide and promote high quality opportunities for the conservation, enhancement and promotion of the historic environment of Perth and Kinross.  We achieve these aims in a variety of ways:

Projects
Projects are carried out by the Trust to increase our understanding of the rich and varied heritage of the area, and to conserve those elements which are at risk.  Projects include conservation of historic buildings, upstanding monuments, condition surveys and rescue excavations.

Consultancy
The Trust provides a range of consultancy services relating to archaeology and historic buildings in Perth and Kinross.  See the consultancy section of this website for details of the services available and associated charges.

Grants
The Trust offers both Historic Buildings Grants, and grants for projects in the Perth and Kinross area. 

Learning and Engagement
An important aspect of our work is to raise awareness and to encourage participation in the historic environment of the area. Our outreach work is branded Exploring Perthshire's Past and provides opportunities for people to find out more about the archaeology and historic buildings in the area, and to take part in hands-on activities.

Advice and Information
The Trust provides information concerning all aspects of the historic environment in the area.  We respond to enquiries and offer specialist advice to members of the public, societies, environmental agencies and local government and National Parks.
