Tyne & Wear Building Preservation Trust (TWBPT) preserves the architectural heritage of Tyne and Wear through the repair, conservation and regeneration of our historic buildings and structures. 

About us

We work in close collaboration with communities, funders, volunteers and end users across all five Local Authority areas in the Tyne and Wear region to rescue, restore and safeguard buildings and structures under threat. Our work has evolved considerably in recent years and we work to achieve strong social and environmental aims through our core ethos of Heritage Better Managed.
