About The
East Kent Maritime Trust
The East Kent Maritime Trust is a Registered Charity (No. 288702), formed in 1983, following an initiative of Thanet District Council, which continues as an important partner in, and supporter of, our work. Our main aim is to promote and raise awareness of the unparalleled maritime and associated heritage of East Kent. This work is mainly carried out through our Museums but a wide range of other activities - publications, conferences and special events backs this up.
